A manager at a local company asked his employees how many times they had given blood in the last year. The results of the survey

are given below. The random variable x represents the number of times a person gave blood and​ P(x) represents the probability of selecting an employee who had given blood that many times. What is the standard deviation for the number of times a person gave blood based on this​ survey? Round to the nearest hundredth. x 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 ​P(x) 0.30 0.25 0.20 0.12 0.07 0.04 0.02

Answer:

Var(X) = E(X^2) -[E(X)]^2 = 4.97 -(1.61)^2 =2.3779

And the deviation would be:

Sd(X) =\sqrt{2.3779}= 1.542 \approx 1.54

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have the following distribution given:

X        0         1       2       3       4         5        6

P(X)  0.3   0.25   0.2   0.12   0.07   0.04   0.02

For this case we need to find first the expected value given by:

E(X) = \sum_{i=1}^n X_i P(X_I)

And replacing we got:

E(X)= 0*0.3 +1*0.25 +2*0.2 +3*0.12 +4*0.07+ 5*0.04 +6*0.02=1.61

Now we can find the second moment given by:

E(X^2) =\sum_{i=1}^n X^2_i P(X_i)

And replacing we got:

E(X^2)= 0^2*0.3 +1^2*0.25 +2^2*0.2 +3^2*0.12 +4^2*0.07+ 5^2*0.04 +6^2*0.02=4.97

And the variance would be given by:

Var(X) = E(X^2) -[E(X)]^2 = 4.97 -(1.61)^2 =2.3779

And the deviation would be:

Sd(X) =\sqrt{2.3779}= 1.542 \approx 1.54

For the first one. An equilateral triangle is one with three equal sides. An isosceles triangle is one with two equal sides. Therefore, every equilateral triangle is isosceles, but not every isosceles triangle is equilateral. So far, so book.

For the second one. Right triangles are defined as triangles that contain a right angle, where a right angle is an angle with a measure of 90°. Isosceles triangles are defined as triangles that have two sides of equal length.

f(x) = -5x - 2

f(3) is x = 3

<u>Step 2: Evaluate</u>

  1. Substitute in <em>x</em>:                    f(3) = -5(3) - 2
  2. Multiply:                               f(3) = -15 - 2

Cos(2x) + sin^2(x) = 0
zloy xaker [14]

cos(2<em>θ</em>) + sin²(<em>θ</em>) = 0

Half-angle identity:

cos(2<em>θ</em>) + (1 - cos(2<em>θ</em>))/2 = 0

Simplify:

2 cos(2<em>θ</em>) + 1 - cos(2<em>θ</em>) = 0

cos(2<em>θ</em>) = -1

Solve for <em>θ</em> :

2<em>θ</em> = arccos(-1) + 2<em>nπ</em>

2<em>θ</em> = <em>π</em> + 2<em>nπ</em>

<em>θ</em> = <em>π</em>/2 + <em>nπ</em>

where <em>n</em> is any integer.
