Answer:

Mean = 35

Variance = 291.7

Step-by-step explanation:

Data provided in the question:

X : 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6

All the data are independent

Thus,

The mean for this case will be given as:

Mean, E[X] = \frac{\textup{Sum of all the observations}}{\textup{Total number of observations}}

or

 E[X] = \frac{\textup{1+2+3+4+5+6}}{\textup{6}}

or

E[X] = 3.5

For 10 days, Mean = 3.5 × 10 = 35

And,

variance = E[X²] - ( E[X] )²

Now, for this case of independent value,

E[X²] = \frac{1^2+2^2+3^2+4^2+5^2+6^2}{\textup{6}}

or

E[X²] = \frac{1+4+9+16+25+36}{\textup{6}}

or

E[X²] = \frac{91}{\textup{6}}

or

E[X²] = 15.167

Therefore,

variance = E[X²] - ( E[X] )²

or

variance = 15.167 - 3.5²

or

Variance = 2.917

For 10 days = Variance × Days²

= 2.917 × 10²

= 291.7

maks197457 [2]

Answer: $3,581

Step-by-step explanation:

As she plans to save from her net income, we have to find the net income first:

= Net income - Federal taxes - Social and Medicare taxes

= 33,000 - (33,000 * 20%) - (33,000 * 7.65%)

= $23,875.50

The savings will be:

= Net income * Savings percentage

= 23,875.50 * 15%

= $3,581.325

= $3,581

Given the function f(x)=3^x, find the value of f^-1(27)
Shalnov [3]

This is asking you to solve the equation ...

... 27 = 3^x

You can use logarithms to find

... log(27) = x·log(3)

... log(27)/log(3) = x = 1.43136376.../0.47712125...

... x = 3

Or, you can use your knowledge of small cubes and match exponents.

... 3^3 = 3^x

... 3 = x
