Answer:

c) 0.1

P(5) = 0.1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

x  :              0      1      2       3       4      5

p(x):          0.2    0.1  0.3   0.1     0.2    ?

Given data is discrete distribution

if the numbers P(x_{i} )  i = 1,2,3.....  satisfies the two conditions

i) P(x_{i} )\geq 0   for all values of 'i'

ii) ∑P(x) = 1

Given data

i) P(x_{i} )\geq 0   for all values of 'i'

ii)            ∑P(x) = 1

        P(x=1) + P(x=2) +P(x=3) +P(x=4)+P(x=5) =1

⇒      0.2 + 0.1 + 0.3 +0.1 +0.2 + p(X=5) = 1

⇒     0.9 +p(5) =1

⇒             p(5) = 1 -0.9

⇒              P(5) = 0.1

The equations of two functions are y =-28x + 8 and y=-29x + 7. Which function is changing more
irinina [24]

<u>Answer:</u>

y=-29x+7 is changing more quickly.

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

This is because the equation y=-29x+7 has a larger slope. The speed of change is determined entirely by the slope; the larger the slope, the faster the line goes up or down. It doesn't matter if it's negative or positive. -29 is the slope of the equation.
