Answer:

The expected value of X is 2 with a standard deviation of 1.34.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each speaker, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it is defective, or it is not. The probability of a speaker being defective is independent of other speakers. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

Probability of exactly x sucesses on n repeated trials, with p probability.

The expected value of the binomial distribution is:

E(X) = np

The standard deviation of the binomial distribution is:

\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)}

Stereo speakers are manufactured with a probability of 0.1 of being defective

This means that p = 0.1

Twenty speakers are randomly selected.

This means that n = 20

Let the random variable X be defined as the number of defective speakers. Find the expected value and the standard deviation.

E(X) = np = 20*0.1 = 2

\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)} = \sqrt{20*0.1*0.9} = 1.34

The expected value of X is 2 with a standard deviation of 1.34.

A nonzero polynomial with rational coefficients has all of the numbers [1 sqrt{2}, ; 2 sqrt{3}, ;3 sqrt{4},; dots, ;1000 sqrt{10
Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

Its degree can be at least 1970

Step-by-step explanation:

for each root of the form √q, where q is not a square, we have a root -√q. Therefore, we need to find, among the numbers below to 1000, how many sqaures there are.

Since √1000 = 31.6, we have a total of 30 squares:

2², 3², 4², ...., 30², 31²

Each square gives one root and the non squares (there are 1000-30 = 970 of them) gives 2 roots (one for them and one for the opposite). Hence the smallest degree a rational polynomial can have is

970*2 + 30 = 1970
