Answer:

e.18278

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a certain stock exchanges designates each stock with a one, two or three letter code, where each letter is selected from the 26 letters of the alphabet.

Total number of letters=26

If code is made from one letter

Then , total number of ways=26

If code is made from two letters and repetition is allowed

Then , total number of ways=26\times 26=676

If code is made form three letter and repetition is allowed

Then, total number of ways=26\times 26\times 26=17576

Total number of ways=26+676+17576=18278 ways

Hence, number of different stocks designated  with these codes=18278.

Answer: Option 'e' is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of letters of the alphabet = 26

Number of letters in code :

One letter code, or two letter code, or three - letter code.

Since repetition of letters are allowed, then

if it is one letter code, the number of arrangement would be 26.

If it is two letter code, the number of arrangements would be

26\times 26\\\\=26^2\\\\=676

If it is three letter code, the number of arrangements would be

26\times 26\times 26\\\\=26^3\\\\=17576

So, Number of different stocks to uniquely designate with these codes would be

26+676+17576\\\\=18278

Hence, Option 'e' is correct.

The following table represents the running times of the men's 100 meters final at the London Olympics.
Rom4ik [11]
This cannot be fit into a normal distribution. While the first 7 runners all have times relatively close, the time of the last runner is an outlier, as it is too far from the other data points. The standard deviation is calculated by taking the mean, subtracting each value from the mean, squaring the deviations, adding these, then dividing by the number of data points (7), and taking the square root. This gives an answer of SD = 0.1107.

Lisa Purchased almonds for $3.50 per pound. She spent a total of $24.50. how many pounds of almond did she purchase?
Margaret [11]

Answer:

7 pounds of almond

Step-by-step explanation:

It is $3.50 per pound.

If she spent a total of $24.50, just divide 24.50 by 3.50

\frac{24.50}{3.50} = 7

We can verify this by multiplying 3.50 by 7 which gives us 24.50
