Answer:

108,000 female officers

Step-by-step explanation:

In 2014, The total number of low enforcement officers in U.S. = 900,000

Approximately 12% of those officers were females.

The number of female officers = 12% of 900,000

                                                   = \frac{12}{100}\times 900,000

                                                   = 0.12 × 900,000

                                                   = 108,000

108,000 officers were female serving in the U.S.

A normal distribution has a mean of 10 and a standard deviation of 1. What is the probability of selecting a number that is at m
Len [333]

Answer: 0.500

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A normal distribution has a mean(\mu) of 10 and a standard deviation(\sigma) of 1.

Let x be a random variable that represents numbers .

The probability of selecting a number that is at most 10 will be

P(x\leq10)=P(\dfrac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\leq\dfrac{10-10}{1})\\\\=P(z\leq0)=0.500

As the area occupied by standard normal curve less than equal to 0 = 0.500

So, required probability = 0.500

Use the frequency table to find the mean of number of working tv sets in students homes
elena55 [62]
To be honest, I got 5, because the total is 25, divide that by 5, and you get 5. Or I also got 6, for WORKING tv sets, only kids with tv sets would be included, so it would be 24 divided by 4.

Find the probability of picking 3 consonants and 2 vowels when 5 letters are picked (without replacement) from a set of alphabet
schepotkina [342]

Step-by-step explanation:

picking 3 consonants and 2 vowels when 5 letters are picked (without replacement) from a set of alphabet tiles.

There are 26 letters in  alphabet

number of consonants = 21  and number of vowels = 5

We need to pick 3 consonants from 21 consonants

Probability of picking 1 consonant from 26 alphabets = 21/ 26

after picking 1 consonant then number of consonant becomes 20

Probability of picking second consonant from 25 alphabets = 20/ 25

Probability of picking third consonant from 24 alphabets = 19/ 24

We need to pick 2 vowels  from 5 vowels

Probability of picking 1 vowel from remaining 23 alphabets = 5/ 23

Probability of picking second vowel from remaining 22 alphabets = 4/ 22

Now multiply all the probabilities

\frac{21}{26} *\frac{20}{25} *\frac{19}{24} *\frac{5}{23} *\frac{4}{22}

= 0.02022
