Lisa [10]3 years ago

we use equation 1 first.
-2x -y = -9 

 -y = -9 + 2x

y = 9 -2x

We substitute value of y in equation 2

5x - 2 (9 - 2x) = -9

5x -18 - 4x = -9

5x - 4x = -9 + 18

x = 18 -9

x = 9

We now find the value of y

-2x -y = -9

-2 (9) - y = -9

-18 - y = -9

-y = -9 + 18

y = 9 - 18

y = -9

At a university, 12% of students smoke. Calculate the expected number of smokers in a random sample of 140 students from this un
Masteriza [31]

Answer:

a) The expected number of smokers in a random sample of 140 students from this university is 16.8 smokers.

b) No, it is unlikely that smoking habits and waking up early to go to the gym on Saturday are independent.

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the expected numbers of smokers in a sample with size n=140 and proportion p=12%, we use the expected value of the binomial distribution:

E(x)=n\cdot p=140\cdot 0.12=16.8

The expected number of smokers in a random sample of 140 students from this university is 16.8 smokers.

If we take a sample at the opening of the gym, the sample is not expected to be representative of the population of the students. Most of the students that go to the gym usually have healthy habits, so the proportions of smokers is expected to be lower than the average of the university population.

Write the following number by entering one digit in each box of the place value chart.
shutvik [7]

Answer:

The number itself is 508.231

Step-by-step explanation:

Any multiplying each of the numbers, we will have the specific places

Hundreds

5 * 100 = 500

Tenths

0 * 10 = 0

ones

8 * 1 = 8

Tenths = 2 * 1/10 = 2/10 = 1/5 = 0.2

Hundredths = 3/100 = 0.03

Thousandths = 1/1000 = 0.001

So we simply sum all these to get the number itself as follows

500 + 8 + 0.2 + 0.03 + 0.001 = 508.231
