Answer:

0.26 and 0.577

mean =0.26

Standard deviation = 0.577

Step-by-step explanation:

x       P(x)        x*P(x)              (x-μ)²                             (x -μ)²*P(x)

0       0.80       0            (0 - 0.26)² = 0.0676            0.0676*0.8 = 0.0541

1        0.15         0.15       (1 - 0.26)² = 0.5476             0.5476*0.15 = 0.0821

2       0.04        0.08       (2 - 0.26)² = 3.0276           3.0276*0.04 = 0.1211

3       0.01         0.03       (3 - 0.26)² = 7.5076           7.5076*0.01 = 0.0751

The mean μ = 0 + 0.15 + 0.08 + 0.03 =0.26

The mean μ =0.26

Variance σ² = 0.0541 + 0.0821 + 0.1211 + 0.0751 = 0.3324

Standard Deviation σ² = √σ = \sqrt{0.3324} = 0.5765 ~ 0.577

Standard Deviation σ =  0.577

Create an item with a selling price over $100 a discount of 25% and tax is 9%
Lana71 [14]

First, convert the 25% to a real mathematical number. For percents, this is always done by dividing the 25% by 100%, or 25% / 100% = 0.250.

Second, find out what 25% of $100 is. This is the amount of the sale discount. This is always found by mulitplying 0.250 by the item's cost $100, like this:

0.250 x $100 = $25.00.

So for this sale, you'll save $25.00 on this item.

This means, the cost of the item to you is

$100 - $25.00 = $75.00.

Alternatively, you can think about it this way. The item is 25% off. This means you'll pay 75.000% of the total cost (100% - 25% = 75.000%).

Now what's 75.000% of the total cost?

0.750 x $100 = $75.00.

Just like the result above, the sale price on the item is $75.00.

Hope this helps you on your assignment! :)

Help!!! Will give brainliest to correct answer.....
zlopas [31]
I believe the answer is C.

93.53 - 21.41 = 72.12

If you simplify C, its answer becomes equivalent to the answer of the original problem:

(90 - 20) + (3 - 1) + (0.5 - 0.4) + (0.03 - 0.01)

70 + 2 + 0.1 + 0.02

72.12

f(x)=2x^2-4x+1

Substitute the values of x to the equation of the function f:

x=-1\to f(-1)=2(-1)^2-4(-1)+1=2(1)+4+1=7\\\\x=2\to f(2)=2(2^2)-4(2)+1=2(4)-8+1=1

Therefore we have two points (-1, 7) and (2, 1).

We can calculate the slope of line l.

The formula of a slope:

m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Substitute:

m=\dfrac{1-7}{2-(-1)}=\dfrac{-6}{3}=-2

<h3>Answer: A) -2.</h3>
