Answer:

<em>Standard deviation  for the number of people with the genetic mutation = 4.178</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>Explanation</em></u>:-

Given random sample size 'n' =600

proportion of the Population 'p'=3% or  0.03

Let 'X' be the random variable in binomial distribution

Mean of the  binomial distribution

                              μ = n p

                                 = 600 X 0.03

                                = 18

<em>Mean of the  binomial distribution ' μ ' =18</em>

<em>Standard deviation of the binomial distribution</em>

<em>                                 σ = </em>\sqrt{npq} = \sqrt{600 X 0.03 X 0.97} = \sqrt{17.46} = 4.178

<u><em>Conclusion:</em></u><em>-</em>

<em>Standard deviation  for the number of people with the genetic mutation = 4.178</em>

Which is the correct formula to find the distance between two points (p,q) and (m,n)?
Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

The answer is d = √[(p - m)² + (q - n)²] ⇒ first answer

Step-by-step explanation:

* The distance between any to points (x1 , y1) , (x2 , y2) is

- d = √[square the difference of x- coordinates plus

        square the difference of y-coordinates]

∴ d = √[(x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²] or

∴ d² = (x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²

* x2 - x1 is the horizontal distance (h) and y2 - y1

 is the vertical distance (v)

- By using Pythagoras theorem

∴ d = √[h² + v²]

∵ The two points are (p , q) and (m , n)

- Put x1 = m and y1 = n

- Put x2 = p and y2 = q

∴ d² = (p - m)² + (q - n)²

∴ d = √[(p - m)² + (q - n)²]

∴ The answer is d = √[(p - m)² + (q - n)²] ⇒ first answer

Simplify (x^3)(x^-2)
Charra [1.4K]
Hey there!

When multiplying variables with the same degree, be sure to add the two degrees being multiplied.

For example;

x * x; both of these terms have the degree of "1" as they are "x^1". Since we are multiplying them, we need to add their degrees.
x^1 * x^1 = x^2

Now that we've broken down what we are doing, let's apply this new knowledge to your problem.

(x^3)(x^-2); Remember to just add the degrees; -2 + 3 = 1
This means our product is x^1, or just x.

I hope this helps!

Hello, here's the question :D
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

(examples) n = 2

n = 3

n = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

to demonstrate, all you do is select a number to represent 'n' and plug it in.

so for example, n = 2:

2(2) + 3(2) = 5(2)

4 + 6 = 10, which is true.

The equation of the ellipse in <em>standard</em> form is (x + 3)² / 100 + (y - 2)² / 64 = 1. (Correct choice: B)

<h3>What is the equation of the ellipse associated with the coordinates of the foci?</h3>

By <em>analytical</em> geometry we know that foci are along the <em>major</em> axis of ellipses and beside the statement we find that such axis is parallel to the x-axis of Cartesian plane. Then, the <em>standard</em> form of the equation of the ellipse is of the following form:

(x - h)² / a² + (y - k)² / b² = 1, where a > b     (1)

Where:

  • a - Length of the major semiaxis.
  • b - Length of the minor semiaxis.

Now, we proceed to find the vertex and the lengths of the semiaxes:

a = 10 units.

b = 8 units.

Vertex

V(x, y) = 0.5 · F₁(x, y) + 0.5 · F₂(x, y)

V(x, y) = 0.5 · (3, 2) + 0.5 · (- 9, 2)

V(x, y) = (1.5, 1) + (- 4.5, 1)

V(x, y) = (- 3, 2)

The equation of the ellipse in <em>standard</em> form is (x + 3)² / 100 + (y - 2)² / 64 = 1. (Correct choice: B)
