Answer: Required mean would be 15.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of girls G= 75

Number of boys B= 100

Probability that girls smoke = P₂ = 0.20

Probability that girls don't smoke = P'₂=1-0.20=0.80

Probability that boys smoke = P₁ = 0.30

Probability that boys don't smoke = P'₁=1-0.30=0.70

We need to find the mean of the sampling distribution of the difference in the sample proportion of girl smokers and boys smokers.

So, it becomes,

E[P_1-P_2]=E[P_1]-E[P_2]\\\\=B\times P_1-G\times P_2\\\\=100\times 0.30-75\times 0.20\\\\=30-15\\\\=15

Hence, required mean would be 15.

Selma cannot remember her locker number! She knows that her locker number is prime, and that it is a factor of 435. What are all
tatuchka [14]

Answer:

Possible locker numbers for Selma are: 3, 5 and 29

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, let us have a look at the definition of a prime number.

A <em>prime number</em> is a number which is divisible either by 1 or the number itself.

No other number divides the prime number other than 1 and the number itself.

Now, let us factorize the given number 435 and let us observe the what all possibilities are there.

435 = 3\times 145

Factorizing 145 further:

435 = 3\times 5\times 29

No further factors are possible.

Therefore 3, 5 and 29 are the prime factors of 435.

So, the answer is:

Possible locker numbers for Selma are: 3, 5 and 29

Answer:

Lateral area  =

pi *  (radius) * √ [ height ^2  + radius^2 ]  =

pi *  ( 4 )  * √ [  4^2 + 3^2 ]  =

pi * ( 4 ) * √25  =

pi * ( 4 ) * (5 )  =

20 pi  units^2  ≈   62.8 units^2
