Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that  In my data set of 10 exam scores, the mean turned out to be the score of the person with the third highest grade.

No two people got the same score.

Let the scores be a,b,c,d,e in ascending order where no two scores are equal

If a+b=d+e =2c then we can have c as the mean of the scores of 5 persons

This is because

Total sum = a+b+c+d+e = (a+b)+c+(d+e)

= 2c+c+2c=5c

Average= 5c/5 = c

It makes sense and there are chances as long as the above condition is satisfied.

Suppose that the useful life of a car battery, measured in months, decays with parameter 0.03 . We are interested in the life of
scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

a) X ~ e(0.03)

b) μ = 100/3

c) \sigma = 100/3

d) A battery is expected to last 100/3 months (33 months and 10 days approximately).

e) For seven batteries, i would expect them to last 700/3 months (approximately 19 years, 5 months and 10 days).

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The life of a battery is usually modeled with an exponential distribution X ~ e(0.03)

b) The mean of X is μ = 1/0.03 = 100/3

c) The standard deviation is \sigma = 1/0.03 = 100/3

d) The expected value of the bateery life is equal to its mean, hence it is 100/3 months.

e) The expected value of 7 (independent) batteries is the sum of the expected values of each one, hence it is 7*100/3 = 700/3 months.
