Answer:

1. True

2. False.

3. True.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The total area within any continuous probability distribution is equal to 1.00: it is true because the maximum probability (value) is one (1), therefore, the total (maximum) area is also one (1).

Hence, for continuous probability distribution: probability = area.

2. For any continuous probability distribution, the probability, P(x), of any value of the random variable, X, can be computed: False because it has an infinite number of possible values, which can not be counted or uncountable.

Hence, it cannot be computed.

3. For any discrete probability distribution, the probability, P(x), of any value of the random variable, X, can be computed: True because it has a finite number of possible values, which are countable or can be counted.

Hence, it can be computed.

Sadie brought $28.00 to the art supply store. She bought a brush, a sketchbook, and a paint set. The brush was 1/3 as much as th

Digiron [165]

Answer:

cost of paint set = $ 13.64

cost of sketch book = $ 6.82

cost of brush = $ 4.55

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cost of paint set is s.

cost of sketch book = s/2

cost of brush = s/3

Money spent = $ 28 - $ 3 = $ 25

So,

s + s/2 + s/3 = 25

6 s + 3 s + 2 s = 150

11 s = 150

s = $ 13.64

cost of paint set = $ 13.64

cost of sketch book = $ 6.82

cost of brush = $ 4.55

The value of x-y is negative, and x and y are both positive. What can you conclude about the values of x

Stolb23 [73]

Well for two positive numbers subtracted to equal a negative number, the first number must have a value that is less than the second number. (Ex. 3-4= -1) In this case, you can conclude that x is less than y! (x<y)

Alla [95]

Answer:

Yes, he earned a Varsity letter because he played in 61% of the games.

Step-by-step explanation:

To know the percent of games he played out of the total, we can do it by dividing the games he played by the total of games and multiply this by 100% to get the percent of games he played:

$\frac{11}{18}*100%$

We solve:

0.611111*100% = 61.11%

So we know that he earned a letter because he played in 61.11% of the games, more than he needed.
