6 0

Hey there!

Both people read a total of 23 books . . .

23 - 5 = 18

18 divided by 2 = 9

This means Nang read 9 books.

9 + 5 = 14 <-------

Simone read 5 more books than Nang. . .

Simone read 14 books.

Hope this helps you.
Have a great day!

The market and Stock J have the following probability distributions:

denis-greek [22]

Answer:

1) $E(M) = 14*0.3 + 10*0.4 + 19*0.3 = 13.9 \%$

2) $E(J)= 22*0.3 + 4*0.4 + 12*0.3 = 11.8 \%$

3) $E(M^2) = 14^2*0.3 + 10^2*0.4 + 19^2*0.3 = 207.1$

And the variance would be given by:

$Var (M)= E(M^2) -[E(M)]^2 = 207.1 -(13.9^2)= 13.89$

And the deviation would be:

$Sd(M) = \sqrt{13.89}= 3.73$

4) $E(J^2) = 22^2*0.3 + 4^2*0.4 + 12^2*0.3 =194.8$

And the variance would be given by:

$Var (J)= E(J^2) -[E(J)]^2 = 194.8 -(11.8^2)= 55.56$

And the deviation would be:

$Sd(M) = \sqrt{55.56}= 7.45$

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have the following distributions given:

Probability M J

0.3 14% 22%

0.4 10% 4%

0.3 19% 12%

Part 1

The expected value is given by this formula:

$E(X)=\sum_{i=1}^n X_i P(X_i)$

And replacing we got:

$E(M) = 14*0.3 + 10*0.4 + 19*0.3 = 13.9 \%$

Part 2

$E(J)= 22*0.3 + 4*0.4 + 12*0.3 = 11.8 \%$

Part 3

We can calculate the second moment first with the following formula:

$E(M^2) = 14^2*0.3 + 10^2*0.4 + 19^2*0.3 = 207.1$

And the variance would be given by:

$Var (M)= E(M^2) -[E(M)]^2 = 207.1 -(13.9^2)= 13.89$

And the deviation would be:

$Sd(M) = \sqrt{13.89}= 3.73$

Part 4

We can calculate the second moment first with the following formula:

$E(J^2) = 22^2*0.3 + 4^2*0.4 + 12^2*0.3 =194.8$

And the variance would be given by:

$Var (J)= E(J^2) -[E(J)]^2 = 194.8 -(11.8^2)= 55.56$

And the deviation would be:

$Sd(M) = \sqrt{55.56}= 7.45$

10) What is the area of the figure below? Round your answer to the nearest tenth (1 place

snow_lady [41]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide the figure into a rectangle and a triangle.

area of rectangle = 5×10 = 50 square units

area of triangle = 0.5×5×10 = 25 square units

total area = 50+25 = 75 square units

fathi has $1.10 in his printing account. each sheet of paper he uses reduces his printing account balance by $0.25. Fathi wants

Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

IF THE question is After Fathi prints, what will be the balance in his printing account?

then it is: $1.9

There are 47 pages.

Printing on both sides would divide the number of pages into half.

47/2 = 23.5

2 pages on each side would mean 4 pages on one sheet. Therefore, the number of pages will be further divided by 2.

23.5/2 = 11.75

There cannot be 11.75 pages so we will round it up to 12 pages.

Each page costs $0.25 so 12 pages will cost:

12 x 0.25 = $3

Faithi has $1.1 so new account balance will be:

1.1 - 3 = $-1.9

Therefore, Fathi's balance in his printing account would be negative $1.9.

Eleven is 20% of ____

ollegr [7]

Convert to a decimal which would be 0.55 (11/20).

Then you want to multiply 0.55 by 100 (which is a whole number, all % is going to come from 100) to convert to a full % -> 0.55*100

Then you will simplify 0.55*100

You answer will be 55%.
