Answer:

The data was unavailable for calculating the probabilities, so the searched data from web is utilized for answering this question.

a. 0.317

b. 0.265

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete as the data for the question is unavailable. The probability for the given scenario can be calculated by the following data that is taken from web search and is similar to given scenario .

                     Female     Male       Total

Driver          32,740      11,797      44,537

Passenger    6,566       6,412      12,978

Total             39,306     18,209     57,515

a.

P(victim is a male)=P(M)=?

P(M)=n(M)/n(S)

P(M)=18209/57515

P(M)=0.316596

P(M)=0.317  (rounded to 3 decimal places).

Thus, the probability that the victim is a male​ is 0.317.

b.

P(victim is male/victim was in driver seat)=P(M/D)=?

P(M/D)=P(M∩D)/P(D)

P(M∩D)=n(M∩D)/n(S)

P(M∩D)=11797/57515

P(M∩D)=0.2051

P(D)=n(D)/n(S)

P(D)=44537/57515

P(D)=0.7744

P(M/D)=P(M∩D)/P(D)

P(M/D)=0.2051/0.7744

P(M/D)=0.2649

P(M/D)=0.265    (rounded to 3 decimal places).

Thus,  the probability that the victim is a male given that he victim was in the driver seat is 0.265.

The following data are direct solar intensity measurements (watts/m2 ) on different days at a location in southern Spain: 562, 8
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

<u>Mean:</u> 810.51

<u>Standard deviation:</u> 128.32

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we calculate the sample mean. We have 35 data samples, so we compute it as \displaystyle \frac{562 + .... + 753}{35}.

In general, given a set of <em>n </em>samples \{ X_1,...,X_n\}, we calculate the sample mean as

\displaystyle \bar{X} = \sum_{i=1}^n \frac{X_i}{n}.

For the standard deviation \sigma, we first begin by calculating it's square. It can be obtained from the formula

\displaystyle \sigma ^2 = \sum_{i=1}^{n} \frac{(X_i - \bar{X})^2}{n-1}

By taking square root after computing the right hand side, we attain the desired value.

The attached image shows the dot diagram of this sample. The bottom pink vertical line shows the mean, and the two horizontal pink lines have a lenght of \sigma.

The standard deviation means "The average expected distance a new sample will be from the mean".  That's why usually, data samples which are denser around the mean have smaller standard deviations (as opposed to distributions who have a lot of values far away from the mean, which will make the standard deviation grow bigger).
