Let x denote the number of defective light bulbs in a randomly selected 20-count box from a local hardware store. The variable x

has the following probability distribution:
x 0 1 2 3 4
P(X) 0.28 0.37 0.22 0.08 0.05

Calculate and interpret σx.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the expected value.

μ = 0 (0.28) + 1 (0.37) + 2 (0.22) + 3 (0.08) + 4 (0.05)

μ = 1.25

Now find the standard deviation.

σ² = (0−1.25)² (0.28) + (1−1.25)² (0.37) + (2−1.25)² (0.22) + (3−1.25)² (0.08) + (4−1.25)² (0.05)

σ² = 1.2075

σ = 1.099

If we were to select many boxes of bulbs randomly, the number of defective bulbs would typically vary about 1.099 from the mean.

The correlation coefficient r between a child’s age, x, and the number of minutes spent doing homework each day, y, is 0.694. Wh

<span>So, they are looking for the percentage that is NOT explained... Well, given the r we can find the percentage that IS explained by it first. That's given by r^2.

</span>Now - let's take the square of r it gives me .481636. That means that about 48% IS explained. Therefore, the part that cannot be explained must be the missing part (out of 100% <span>so 100% - 48.1636% should be it :)
</span>
<span>So 100% - 48.1636% = 0.518364 and we want to round that off to three decimal places which will give us 0.518... and then we could convert that to a percent for the final. So 0.518 as a percentage is 51.8%! s</span>

0.0392 or 3.92%
The exponential growth formula can find the interest rate.

y - tolat value (P +I) (216)
a - principal (200)
r- rate (unkown)
x - time in years (2 yrs)
Substitute known values

divide both sides by 200

take the square root of both sides

subtract 1 on both sides
r = 0.0392 or 3.92%
