There are several important information's already given in the question. Based on those given information's the answer to the question can be easily deduced.
Total number of students in the school = 209
Ration of the boys to girls in the school = 6:5
Let us assume the common ratio to be = x
Then
6x + 5x = 209
11x = 209
x = 209/11
   = 19
Then
The number of girls in the school = 19 * 5
                                                      = 95
So there are a total of 95 girls in the school that has a total of 209 students.

Rudik [331]

Answer:

a) E(y) = 0.8

b) The average subcharge is $165

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following distribution in the question:

y:           0        1        2         3

P(y):   0.50   0.25   0.20   0.05

a) E(y)

E(y) = \displaystyle\sum y_iP(y_i)\\\\E(y) = 0(0.50)+1(0.25)+2(0.20)+3(0.05)\\E(y) = 0.8

b) Expected value of subcharge

Subcharge =

\$110y^2

Expected value of subcharge =

=110E(y^2)\\\\=110\displaystyle\sum y_i^2P(y_i)\\\\=110(0^2(0.50)+1^2(0.25)+2^2(0.20)+3^2(0.05))\\=110(1.5)=165

Thus, the average subcharge is $165

The quadratic equation 2x^2 + bx + 18 = 0 has a double root. Find all possible values of b.
Doss [256]
When a quadratic equation ax^2+bx+c has a double root, the discriminant,
D=b^2-4ac=0
Here 
a=2,
b=b,
c=18
and 
D=b^2-4ac=b^2-4*2*18=0 
solve for b
b^2-144=0
=> b= &pm; sqrt(144)= &pm; 12

So in order that the given equation has double roots,  the possible values of b are &pm; 12.
