Answer:

n = 1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

5(n− 1 /10 )= 1/ 2

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

5(n− 1 /10 )= 1 /2

(5)(n)+(5)( −1 /10 )= 1/2

(Distribute)

5n + −1 /2 = 1 /2

Step 2: Add 1/2 to both sides.

5n + −1 /2 + 1 /2 = 1 /2 + 1 /2

5n=1

Step 3: Divide both sides by 5.

5n /5 = 1 /5

n= 1 /5

Bobby is testing the effectiveness of a new cough medication. There are 100 people with a cough in the study. Seventy patients r

Tresset [83]

Answer:

0.665

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: 100 people are split into two groups 70 and 30. I group is given cough syrup treatment but second group did not.

Prob for a person to be in the cough medication group = 0.70

Out of people who received medication, 34% did not have cough

Prob for a person to be in cough medication and did not have cough

= $\frac{0.70(34)}{60}=0.397$

Prob for a person to be not in cough medication and did not have cough

= $\frac{0.3(20)}{30}=0.20$

Probability for a person not to have cough

= P(M1C')+P(M2C')

where M1 = event of having medication and M2 = not having medication and C' not having cough

This is because M1 and M2 are mutually exclusive and exhaustive

SO P(C') = 0.397+0.2=0.597

Hence required prob =P(M1/C') = $\frac{0.397}{0.597}=0.665$

2(9+10) = 38
2(5+6) = 22

P = 38+22=60 in

9 x 10 = 90
6 x 5 = 30
A = 90+50 = 140 in^2

I go bowling every week and keep track of how many strikes i get: 2,0,4,7,7,0,1,0 Find the mode median and mean of this set of d

natima [27]

Answer:

Mode is 0
Median is 1
Mean is 2.625

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the mode, or modal value, it is best to put the numbers in order. A number that appears most often is the mode.
0, 0, 0, 1, 2, 4, 7, 7 = mode is 0

To find the Median, place the numbers in value order and find the middle number.
0 , 0 , 0 , 1 , 2 , 4 , 7 , 7 = median is 1

The mean is the average of the numbers. It is easy to calculate: add up all the numbers, then divide by how many numbers there are.
0 + 0 + 0 + 1 + 2 + 4 + 7 + 7 / 8 = mean is 2.625
