Answer:

\mu=0.4

V=8.64

\sigma=2.94

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The probability distribution of a random variable X.

To find : The mean, variance, and standard deviation of X.

Solution :

First we create the table as per requirements,

x      P(x)         xP(x)           x²            x²P(x)

4     0.3           1.2              16              4.8

2     0.1            0.2             4               0.4

0     0.3            0               0                0

-2    0.1           -0.2             4               0.4

-4    0.2          - 0.8            16              3.2

   ∑P(x)=1     ∑xP(x)=0.4               ∑x²P(x)=8.8

1) The mean of x is defined as

\mu=\sum xP(x)=0.4

2) The variance of x is defined as

V=\sum x^2P(x)-(\sum xP(x))^2\\V=8.8-(0.4)^2\\V=8.8-0.16\\V=8.64

3) The standard deviation of x is defined as  

\sigma=\sqrt{V}\\\sigma=\sqrt{8.64}\\\sigma=2.94

Paolo is using his grandmother’s cookie recipe. He always doubles the amount of chocolate chips and oats. The recipe calls for 2
nalin [4]

<u>Answer:</u>

y = 94.5 cups

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Let's say:

  • y = oats
  • x = chocolate chips = 212

=> Full Recipe = 212 + y

=> 2(Full Recipe) = 2(212 + y) = 613 cups

=> 2(Full Recipe) = 424 + 2y = 613 cups

=> 2y = 613 - 424

=> 2y = 189

=> y = 94.5

Therefore, the required oats to do double the recipe is 94.5 cups.

Hoped this helped.

The limit as h approaches 0 of (e^(2+h)-e^2)/h is ?
Whitepunk [10]
<span>If you plug in 0, you get the indeterminate form 0/0. You can, therefore, apply L'Hopital's Rule to get the limit as h approaches 0 of e^(2+h),
which is just e^2.
</span><span><span><span>[e^(<span>2+h) </span></span>− <span>e^2]/</span></span>h </span>= [<span><span><span>e^2</span>(<span>e^h</span>−1)]/</span>h

</span><span>so in the limit, as h goes to 0, you'll notice that the numerator and denominator each go to zero (e^h goes to 1, and so e^h-1 goes to zero). This means the form is 'indeterminate' (here, 0/0), so we may use L'Hoptial's rule:

How do you solve this problem?
Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

x=48

Step-by-step explanation:

x-3              15

------------ = ----------

6                      2

We can use cross products to solve this problem

(x-3) *2 = 6*15

Distribute

2x-6 = 90

Add 6 to each side

2x-6+6 = 90+6

2x=96

Divide by 2

2x/2 = 96/2

x = 48
