Answer:

Var(X)=1.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for calculating the coefficient of variation for a probability generating function:

Var(X)= PX''(1) + PX'(1) - [PX'(1)]² ........... eq(1)

Now compute each individual term in the above formula.

PX'(z) = (10) (0.8) (0.8z + 0.2)^9

PX'(1) = 8 (1)^9 = 8

[PX'(1)]² = 64

PX''(z) =  (9) (8) (0.8) (0.8z + 0.2)^8

PX''(1) =   57.6 (1)^8 = 57.6

Substitute all terms back in eq(1)

Var(X)= 57.6 + 8 - 64

Var(X)= 1.6

I WILL MARK AS BRAINLIST The quantities x and y are proportional Find the constant of proportionality (r) in the equation y=rx
tekilochka [14]

Answer:

\frac{1}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that x and y are proportional and the equation relating them is

y = rx ← r is the constant of proportionality

To find r use any ordered pair from the table

Using x = 9, y = 4.5 , then

4.5 = 9r ( divide both sides by 9 )

\frac{4.5}{9} = r , that is

r = \frac{1}{2}

(x + 5)2 + (y - 7)2 = 36, its radius is
sashaice [31]
6 because the 36 is r² where r is the radius, r² = 36; we have to isolate the r so it's by its self, so square root both sides, r = 6
