The table of the probability is missing, so i have attached it.

Answer:

μ = 0.919

The interpretation of this is that;on the average, an individual aged 15 years or older has been involved in 0.919 marriages.

Step-by-step explanation:

The expected value which is also called mean value is denoted by the symbol μ. It is defined as the sum of the product of each possibility x with it's probability P(x) as the formula;

μ = Σx.P(x) = (0 × 0.272) + (1 × 0.575) + (2 × 0.121) + (3 × 0.027) + (4 × 0.004) + (5 × 0.001)

μ = 0.919

Thus, the interpretation of this is that;on the average, an individual aged 15 years or older has been involved in 0.919 marriages.

Suppose that the height (in centimeters) of a candle is a linear function of the amount of time (in hours) it has been burning.
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

Hey! The answer is 25,4 centimeters.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a linear function you can use y=mx+n

So if x = hours and y= height.

You know that

\left \{ {{27,8=11m +n} \atop {24,8=26m +n}} \right.

So:

If you multiply (24,8=26m +n) x-1

It is: -24,8 = -26m -n

Adding up the other equation

-24,8 = -26m -n

<u>27,8 = 11m + n</u>

<u>3 = -15m</u>

<u>m= -0,2</u>

So

27,8 = 11 x 0,2 + n

27,8 = -2,2 + n

30 = n

This results that te linear function for this equation is:

y = -0,2x + 30

The answer is

y=23(-0,2) + 30

y=-4,6+30

y=25,4
