Answer:

Hence, the probability is:

\dfrac{1}{25}

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of chips of different colors in Vicky's bag is shown below:

5 blue chips   11 pink chips       9 white chips.

The total number of chips in Vicky's bag are: 25

( since, 5+11+9=25 chips)

Also,

the choosing of the chip is done on the basis of replacement.

This means when one chip is drawn it is put back into the bag and then the other chip is drawn.

Let P denote the probability of an event.

This means that:

P(Blue)=5/25

( Since there are 5 blue chips out of 25 chips)

As the drawing of chip in first draw is independent of the second draw.

Hence, the probability that Vicky takes out a blue chip in both draws is calculated as:

P(Choosing\ Blue\ in\ both\ draw)=P(Blue)\times P(Blue)\\\\P(Choosing\ Blue\ in\ both\ draw)=\dfrac{5}{25}\times \dfrac{5}{25}\\\\P(Choosing\ Blue\ in\ both\ draw)=\dfrac{1}{25}

Calculate the variance for the data set. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth. Show all of your steps. { 10 , 19 , 21 , 28
GrogVix [38]

Answer:

Variance of the given data = 31.143

Explanation:

  Variance, \sigma^2=\frac{1}{n} \sum_{i=1}^{n}(x_i-\mu)^2, where n is the number of observations, μ is the mean and x_i is the observations made.

   Number of observations, n = 7

   Mean, μ = \frac{10+19+21+28+12+20+16}{7} = 18

   \sum_{i=1}^{n}(x_i-\mu)^2=(10-18)^2+(19-18)^2+(21-18)^2+(28-18)^2+(12-18)^2+(20-18)^2+(16-18)^2\\ \\ \sum_{i=1}^{n}(x_i-\mu)^2=64+1+9+100+36+4+4=218

  \sigma^2=\frac{1}{n} \sum_{i=1}^{n}(x_i-\mu)^2=\frac{218}{7} =31.143

  So variance of the given data = 31.143
