Is this math cause I'm tryna figure it out
Answer:
The mean and standard deviation of the number preferring the incumbent is mean = 330, standard deviation = 10.59.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that From previous polls, it is believed that 66% of likely voters prefer the incumbent.
A new poll of 500 likely voters will be conducted. In the new poll the proportion favoring the incumbent has not changed.
Let p = probability of voters preferring the incumbent = 66%
n = number of voters polled = 500
<u>So, the mean of the number preferring the incumbent is given by;</u>
Mean =
=
= 330 voters
<u>And, standard deviation of the number preferring the incumbent is given by;</u>
Variance =
=
= 112.2
So, Standard deviation =
=
= 10.59
(0,5.25)(10,13.75)
slope(m) = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
slope(m) = (13.75 - 5.25) / (10 - 0) = 8.5/10 = 0.85
y = mx + b
(0,5.25)...x = 0 and y = 5.25
slope(m) = 0.85
now we sub, we r looking for b, the y int
5.25 = 0.85(0) + b
5.25 = b
so ur equation is : y = 0.85x + 5.25 or C(t) = 0.85t + 5.25 <==
cost of a 12 min taxi ride.....sub in 12 for t
C(t) = 0.85t + 5.25
C(12) = 0.85(12) +5.25
C(12) = 10.20 + 5.25 = 15.45
so a 12 min ride would cost u : $ 15.45 <==
