Answer:

Mean = 3.4

Variance = 1.088

Standard deviation = 1.0431

Step-by-step explanation:

P=0.68\\ \\N=5

The mean of a binomial distribution with parameters N (the number of trials) and p (the probability of success for each trial) is m=N\cdot p

Thus,

m=5\cdot 0.68=3.4

The variance of the binomial distribution is s^2=Np(1-p), where s^2​​ is the variance of the binomial distribution, so

s^2=5\cdot 0.68\cdot (1-0.68)=3.4\cdot 0.32=1.088

The standard deviation s is the square root of the variance s^2, so

s=\sqrt{1.088}\approx 1.0431

A number is chosen at random from 1 to 25. Find the probability of selecting an odd number or multiples of 5. *
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

Odd number: 13/25 (52%)

Multiples of 5: 5/25 (20%)

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 13 odd numbers between 1 and 25 so you have a 13/25 chance which is 52% (13/25 = 0.52). There are 5 multiples of 2 between 1 and 25 so you have a 5/25 chance which is 20% (5/25 = 0.2).
