The graph shows a probability distribution. What is P(X<5)
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

P(x < 5) = 0.70

Step-by-step explanation:

Note:  The area under a probability "curve" must be = to 1.

Finding the sub-area representing x < 5 immediately yields the desired probability.

Draw a dashed, vertical line through x = 5.  The resulting area, on the left, is a trapezoid.  The area of a trapezoid is equal to:

 (average length)·(width, which here is:

  2 + 5

----------- · 0.02  =  (7/2)(0.2) =  0.70

      2

Thus, P(x < 5) = 0.70

The cost of a pound of nails increased from ​$2.17 to ​$2.52. What is the percent of increase to the nearest​ whole-number perce
Cloud [144]

Answer:

16%  is the percent of increase to the nearest​ whole-number percent.

Step-by-step explanation:

As the cost of a pound of nails increased from ​$2.17 to ​$2.52.

  • $2.52 - $2.17 = $0.35

so dividing the 0.35 by 2.17 would give us the percetange of increase

  • 0.35/2.17 = 0.16 which is 16%.

Therefore, 16%  is the percent of increase to the nearest​ whole-number percent.

Write each of the following expressions without using absolute value: |z−6|−|z−5|, if z&lt;5
abruzzese [7]

Answer:

The answer is <em>1</em>.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression:

|z-6|-|z-5|,\ if\ z

To find:

The expression without absolute value.

Solution:

First of all, let us learn about the absolute value function:

y = f(x) = |x| =\left \{ {{x\ if\ x>0} \atop {-x\ if\ x

i.e. value is x if x is positive

value is -x if x is negative

Here the given expression contains two absolute value functions:

|z-6| and |z-5|

Using the definition of absolute value function as per above definition.

|z-5| =\left \{ {{(z-5)\ if\ z>5} \atop {-(z-5)\ if\ z

|z-6| =\left \{ {{(z-6)\ if\ z>6} \atop {-(z-6)\ if\ z

Now, it is given that z < 5 that means z will also be lesser than 6 i.e. z < 6

So, given expression |z-6|-|z-5|,\ if\ z will be equivalent to :

-(z-6) - (-(z-5))\\\Rightarrow -z+6 +z-5 = \bold{1}

So, the expression is equivalent to <em>1</em>.
