Answer: 10 miles after 5 track practices.

Step-by-step explanation: Lets find the unit rate of this problem. Remember that unit rate means the denominator will always have a 1.

8/4 converted to a unit rate is 2/1

The unit rate is 2 miles per every 1 track practice.

We can use the unit rate to solve how many miles Leslie would have ran after 5 track practices.

2/1 x 5 = 10/5

So, Leslie would have ran 10 miles after 5 track practices.

Answer:

10 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Find how much she runs during one track practice by dividing 8 by 4. This gives you the equation 2x, with x being the number of track practices.

Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

Standard deviation of given data = 3.16227

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>Step(i)</em></u>:-

Given sample size 'n' = 5

Given data  4, 6,8,10,12

Mean = \frac{4+6+8+10+12}{5} = 8

Mean of the sample x⁻ = 8

Standard deviation of the sample

                  S.D = \sqrt{\frac{Sum(x-x^{-} )^{2} }{n-1}}

<u><em>Step(ii)</em></u>:-

Given data

x          :         4      6       8       10      12

x-x⁻      :      4 - 8   6-8   8-8    10-8    12-8

(x-x⁻)   :        -4      -2     0          2        4

(x-x⁻)²  :        16     4       0         4        16  

 

  S.D = \sqrt{\frac{Sum(x-x^{-} )^{2} }{n-1}}

  S.D = \sqrt{\frac{16+4+0+4+16}{4}}

 S.D = √10 = 3.16227

<u><em> Final answer</em></u>:-

The standard deviation = 3.16227

Answer:

<em>In the next year, Anthony worked 2,084 hours</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Anthony worked 1,697 hours in 2010.

We also know Anthony worked 22.8% more hours than in 2010.

The problem requires to calculate how much did Anthony work in the next year.

It can be calculated as follows:

Take 22.8% of 1,697:

22.8 * 1,697 / 100 = 386.916\approx 387\ hours

Now calculate by adding it to the original number of hours:

1,697 + 387 = 2,084 hours

In the next year, Anthony worked 2,084 hours

Bad White [126]

Answer:

a) Let the random variable X= "number of these tracks where SBIRS detects the object." in order to use the binomial probability distribution we need to satisfy some conditions:

1) Independence between the trials (satisfied)

2) A value of n fixed , for this case is 20 (satisfied)

3) Probability of success p =0.2 fixed (Satisfied)

So then we have all the conditions and we can assume that:

X \sim Bin(n =20, p=0.8)

b) X \sim Bin(n =20, p=0.8)

c) P(X=15)=(20C15)(0.8)^{15} (1-0.8)^{20-15}=0.17456

d) P(X \geq 15) = P(X=15)+ .....+P(X=20)

P(X=15)=(20C15)(0.8)^{15} (1-0.8)^{20-15}=0.17456

P(X=16)=(20C16)(0.8)^{16} (1-0.8)^{20-16}=0.218

P(X=17)=(20C17)(0.8)^{17} (1-0.8)^{20-17}=0.205

P(X=18)=(20C18)(0.8)^{18} (1-0.8)^{20-18}=0.137

P(X=19)=(20C19)(0.8)^{19} (1-0.8)^{20-19}=0.058

P(X=20)=(20C20)(0.8)^{20} (1-0.8)^{20-20}=0.012

P(X\geq 15)=0.804208

e) E(X) = np = 20*0.8 = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

The binomial distribution is a "DISCRETE probability distribution that summarizes the probability that a value will take one of two independent values under a given set of parameters. The assumptions for the binomial distribution are that there is only one outcome for each trial, each trial has the same probability of success, and each trial is mutually exclusive, or independent of each other".

The probability mass function for the Binomial distribution is given as:

P(X)=(nCx)(p)^x (1-p)^{n-x}

Where (nCx) means combinatory and it's given by this formula:

nCx=\frac{n!}{(n-x)! x!}

Part a

Let the random variable X= "number of these tracks where SBIRS detects the object." in order to use the binomial probability distribution we need to satisfy some conditions:

1) Independence between the trials (satisfied)

2) A value of n fixed , for this case is 20 (satisfied)

3) Probability of success p =0.2 fixed (Satisfied)

So then we have all the conditions and we can assume that:

X \sim Bin(n =20, p=0.8)

Part b

X \sim Bin(n =20, p=0.8)

Part c

For this case we just need to replace into the mass function and we got:

P(X=15)=(20C15)(0.8)^{15} (1-0.8)^{20-15}=0.17456

Part d

For this case we want this probability: P(X\geq 15)

And we can solve this using the complement rule:

P(X \geq 15) = P(X=15)+ .....+P(X=20)

P(X=15)=(20C15)(0.8)^{15} (1-0.8)^{20-15}=0.17456

P(X=16)=(20C16)(0.8)^{16} (1-0.8)^{20-16}=0.218

P(X=17)=(20C17)(0.8)^{17} (1-0.8)^{20-17}=0.205

P(X=18)=(20C18)(0.8)^{18} (1-0.8)^{20-18}=0.137

P(X=19)=(20C19)(0.8)^{19} (1-0.8)^{20-19}=0.058

P(X=20)=(20C20)(0.8)^{20} (1-0.8)^{20-20}=0.012

P(X\geq 15)=0.804208

Part e

The expected value is given by:

E(X) = np = 20*0.8 = 16

Math property x+(-x)=0
alexira [117]

Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

Bcs, in the equation x+(-x)=0 you do x-x ( which is basically x+ -x) and they cancel each other out. This means your equation is 0=0
