Answer:

a. 0.689

b. 0.8

c. 0.427

Step-by-step explanation:

The given scenario indicates hyper-geometric experiment because because successive trials are dependent and probability of success changes on each trial.

The probability mass function for hyper-geometric distribution is

P(X=x)=kCx(N-k)C(n-x)/NCn

where N=4+3+3=10

n=2

k=4

a.

P(X>0)=1-P(X=0)

The probability mass function for hyper-geometric distribution is

P(X=x)=kCx(N-k)C(n-x)/NCn

P(X=0)=4C0(6C2)/10C2=15/45=0.311

P(X>0)=1-P(X=0)=1-0.311=0.689

P(X>0)=0.689

b.

The mean of hyper-geometric distribution is

μx=nk/N

μx=2*4/10=8/10=0.8

c.

The variance of hyper-geometric distribution is

σx²=nk(N-k).(N-n)/N²(N-1)

σx²=2*4(10-4).(10-2)/10²*9

σx²=8*6*8/900=384/900=0.427

Put this into Slope Intercept Form<br> x + 6y = –6
mel-nik [20]

Answer:

y=-\frac{x}{6} -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

We are given the following equation:
x+6y=-6

And we want to convert it into slope-intercept form

Slope-intercept form is known as y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

The equation is currently in standard form, which is ax+by=c, where a, b, and c are integer coefficients

Notice how in standard form, both the terms that contain x and y are on one side, but in slope-intercept form, y is by itself on one side

So essentially, in order to convert from standard form to slope-intercept form, we need to solve for y

Here is our equation again:

x+6y=-6

Start by subtracting x from both sides

x+6y=-6

-x       -x

_______________

6y=-x-6

Now divide both sides by 6

y=-\frac{x}{6} -\frac{6}{6}
We can simplify the fractions to become:

y=-\frac{x}{6} -1
Hope this helps!

Solve four square root of six plus eight square root of four and explain whether the answer is rational or irrational.
Inga [223]

Answer:

4\sqrt{6}+16

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression: 4\sqrt{6}+8\sqrt{4}

\sqrt{4}=2\\$Therefore, \\4\sqrt{6}+8\sqrt{4}  =4\sqrt{6}+8*2\\  =16+4\sqrt{6}

We can re-write the answer as:

4\sqrt{6}+16

The answer is irrational because the sum of a rational number and irrational number is an irrational number.

<u>The correct option is B.</u>
