Simple, what you're basically doing is simplifying,
well, you have 3x and you have
12/3=4
and you can "cancel" out an x, making your answer,
.
A rectangular prism is a cuboid so volume of cuboid is base area x height which is 5x5x12=300
volume of pyramid is 1/3 x base area x height = 5x5x6x1/3=50 thus volume outside pyramid and inside cuboid is 300-50=250
Set 1 mean - 23.625
Set 2 mean - 23.5
Set 1 median - 23.5
Set 2 median - 22.5
This shows the answer is D :)
Answer:
x > 3
Step-by-step explanation:
This is based on the concept 'when a negative number is multiplied to both sides of the inequality, the sign gets reversed. For example, x > - 2 when it is multiplied by - 1, it becomes - x < 2.'
*only when the number is -ve.
Similarly, in this question, multiply both sides by - 1.
2x > 6
x > 6/2
x > 3
For more : take - 5 > - 2, as you know
Note that 5 is actually greater than 2. To make this true we change signs
This problem can be solved from first principles, case by case. However, it can be solved systematically using the hypergeometric distribution, based on the characteristics of the problem:
- known number of defective and non-defective items.
- no replacement
- known number of items selected.
Let
a=number of defective items selected
A=total number of defective items
b=number of non-defective items selected
B=total number of non-defective items
Then
P(a,b)=C(A,a)C(B,b)/C(A+B,a+b)
where
C(n,r)=combination of r items selected from n,
A+B=total number of items
a+b=number of items selected
Given:
A=2
B=3
a+b=3
PMF:
P(0,3)=C(2,0)C(3,3)/C(5,3)=1*1/10=1/10
P(1,2)=C(2,1)C(3,2)/C(5,3)=2*3/10=6/10
P(2,0)=C(2,2)C(3,1)/C(5,3)=1*3/10=3/10
Check: (1+6+3)/10=1 ok
note: there are only two defectives, so the possible values of x are {0,1,2}
Therefore the
PMF:
{(0, 0.1),(1, 0.6),(2, 0.3)}
