Answer: Mean = 5.25

Variance = 1.3125

Standard deviation = 1.456

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean and variance of a binomial distribution with parameters n (number of trials) and p ( the probability of getting success in each trial) is given by :-

\text{Mean}=np\\\\\text{Variance}=np(1-p)

Given : The total number of enter a clothing store : n=7

The probability of a customer making a purchase= 0.75

Now,

\text{Mean}=7(0.75)=5.25\\\\\text{Variance}=7(0.75)(0.25)=1.3125\\\\\Rightarrow\ \text{Standard deviation}=\sqrt{1.3125}=1.14564392374\approx1.1456

Chris can drive 41 miles for every 3 gallons of gas. At this
maks197457 [2]

Answer:

27 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

If for every 41 miles, 3 gallons are needed. Using what we know, 369 ÷ 41 = 9. This means, to get 369 miles, we need to times the first amoiyng of gallons needed to drive 41 miles, which is 3, and times it by 9. (3×9=27) Therefore, 27 gallons of gas is needed.

The distribution of the average amount of sleep per night gotten by college students is roughly bell-shaped with mean 412 minute
kirza4 [7]

Answer:

P(X

P(z

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".  

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable that represent the scores of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

X \sim N(412,68)  

Where \mu=412 and \sigma=68

We are interested on this probability

P(X

And the best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

If we apply this formula to our probability we got this:

P(X

And we can find this probability using the normal standard table or excel and we got:

P(z

lyudmila [28]

Answer:

21 AED

W know the cost of each kind of meat

Chicken = 4 AED

Beef = 3 AED

We also know how much of each we will be buying

Chicken = 3.6 kg

Beef = 2.2 kg

Multiply each price of meat by its respective weight, then add the products together for you final answer.

4(3.6) + 3(2.2) = 21
