Answer:

If in a day, 458 call options are picked by these traders, around <u>   246.2  </u>of them will be winners, give or take<u>  10.67  </u>.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

Your study variable is X: the number of winning calls in a sample of 458 calls.

The variable has a binomial distribution since you have two possible outcomes, that the call is a winning call (success) or that the call is not a winning call (failure), each call is independent and the probability of success is p= 0.5375 and the probability of failure q= 1-p= 1-0.5375= 0.4625.

The expected value for a binomial distribution is

E(X)= n*p= 458 * 0.5375= 246.175

And to know the standard error (or standard deviation) you have to calculate the square root of the variance:

V(X)= n*p*q= 458*0.5375*0.4625= 113.85

√V(X)= √113.85= 10.67

I hope it helps!

A garden is 14 1/2 ft by 13 1/4 ft. What is the area
Marianna [84]
The area means to multiply the length by the width.

let's solve.

14 1/2 x 13 1/4.
convert our fractions into decimals.

14 1/2 = 14.50
13 1/4 = 13.25

Now we can multiply properly.

14.50 x 13.25 = 192.125
since our shape is 2-Dimensional, our units are ^2.

Your area is:
192.25 ft^2

30. Multiply a decimal less than 1 and a whole number._____________________
Talja [164]
30.
the multiplication of a decimal less than 1 and a whole number is always smaller than the whole number, because we are taking a fraction of the whole number.

31.
the product of a decimal greater than 1 and a whole number is always greater than the whole number because we are scaling the whole number.

At George Washington High School, 119 students walk to school. If this number is 35% of school enrollment, then how many student
nignag [31]

Answer: 340 students

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of students walking to school is 119 and this is 35% of the total number of students.

Assume the total number is denoted by "x".

That would mean that the following formula captures the situation:

119 = 35% * x

119 = 0.35x

x = 119/ 0.35

= 340 students

Consider the function y = x2 − 18x. Enter the values for the variables to complete the inverse.
ollegr [7]
<span>In the function "y=x2-18x" the goal is to find the value of the letter x. We know that y equals x2-18x. First, recognize that x2 is the same thing as 2x. So changing the problem to "y=2x-18x". We can subtract 18x from 2x, which leaves us with -16x. Now the problem looks like this: y=-16x. In order to get x by itself, we will need to do the same thing to both sides of the equation. In this case, we want the answer to be x by itself, or (1x) which is the same thing. We divide both sides of the equation by (-16). We are left with the following: y/-16=x. Basically, in words, x equals y divided by negative 16.</span>
