Answer:

a) E(x)=3.565

b) c=3.8475 --> P(X < 3.8475) = 0.75

c) The probability that X falls above or below 0.28 min from the mean is P=0.4954.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the cumulative distribution function as information.

a) To calculate the expected value, we can calculate the value of x in which F(x) equals 0.5. This happens for x=3.565.

F(x)=\frac{x-3}{1.13} =0.5\\\\x-3=0.5*1.13=0.565\\\\x=0.565+3=3.565

b) What is the value c such that P(X < c) = 0.75?

In this case, we have to calculate x to have F(x)=0.75

F(x)=\frac{x-3}{1.13} =0.75\\\\x-3=0.75*1.13=0.8475\\\\x=0.8475+3=3.8475

This happens for x=3.8475.

c) We have to calculate the probability that X falls above or below 0.28 min from the mean (x=3.565).

This is the probability that the time is between 3.285 and 3.845

x_1=3.565-0.28=3.285\\\\x_2=3.565+0.28=3.845

We can calculate this as:

P(3.285

The probability that X falls above or below 0.28 min from the mean is P=0.4954.

Use slope-intercept form to write the equation of a line
Korvikt [17]

Answer:

y=-3x-2

Step-by-step explanation:

There is enough information to make a point-slope form equation that which we can convert into slope-intercept form.

Point-slope form is: y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

We are given the slope of -3 and the point of (1,-5).

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\rightarrow y+5=-3(x-1)

Convert into Slope-Intercept Form:

y+5=-3(x-1)\\y+5-5=-3(x-1)-5\\\boxed{y=-3x-2}

valina [46]

Answer:

20

Step-by-step explanation:

The questions asks about Combinations of Pizza toppings, so by employing the Combination Formula:

C(n, k) = \frac{n!}{k!(n-k)!}

C(6, 3) = \frac{6!}{3! \cdot 3!} = \frac{6 \cdot 5 \cdot 4 \cdot 3 \cdot 2}{3 \cdot 2 \cdot 3 \cdot 2} = 20
