(a) Would it be unusual to have more than 120 successes out of 200 trials? Explain.

(A) Yes. 120 is more than 2.5 standard deviations above the expected value.
(B) Yes. 120 is more than 2.5 standard deviations below the expected value.

Answer:

The correct answer is option 'a' : 120 is more than 2.5 standard deviations above the expected value.

Step-by-step explanation:

For an exponential distribution we have

The expected value μ = 80

No of trails n = 200

Thus we have

p=\frac{80}{200}=0.4

The deviation is related to expected value and probability as

\sigma =\sqrt{np(1-p)}\\\\\therefore \sigma =\sqrt{200\cdot 0.4\cdot (1-0.4)}=6.9

Thus the values between the given deviation is

x_{1}=80-2.5\times 6.9=62.75\\\\x_{2}=80+6.9\times 2.5=97.25

Now since 120 successes are out of the range of [62.75,97.25] thus 120 is more than the expected value.

The sum of the first n consecutive even numbers can be found using S=n2+n, where n≥2. What is the value of n when the sum is 42?
lawyer [7]

Answer:

  • C. 6

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given</u>

  • S = n² + n
  • S = 42, n = ?

<u>Substitute and solve for n:</u>

  • 42 = n² + n
  • n² + 2*1/2n + 1/4 = 42.25
  • (n + 0.5)² = 42.25
  • n + 0.5 = √42.25
  • n + 0.5 = 6.5
  • n = 6

Correct option is C

Use geometry words to describe a way to separate triangles into other triangles
zysi [14]
You can divide a triangle using medians. Let's name triangle ΔABC shown in figure 1. So you must start at one of the vertices and then bisect the opposite side. Let's start with the point A and then we bisect the opposite side. Then the length from B to D is equal to the length from D to C. So let's take the point B and then we bisect the opposite side. Then the length from A to E is equal to the length from E to C. The same reasoning happens with the point C. So we have, in figure 2, the triangle ΔABC divided into six triangles which all have the same area.
