The expected value is

E[X]=\displaystyle\sum_xx\,P(X=x)=\frac1{11}\sum_{x=0}^{10}x=\dfrac{0+1+\cdots+9+10}{11}=\dfrac{55}{11}=\boxed{5}

The standard deviation is the square root of the variance, which is

V[X]=E[(X-E[X])^2]=E[X^2]-E[X]^2

where

E[X^2]=\displaystyle\sum_xx^2\,P(X=x)=\frac1{11}\sum_{x=0}^{10}x^2=\dfrac{0^2+1^2+\cdots+9^2+10^2}{11}=\dfrac{385}{11}=35

so that

V[X]=35-5^2=10

making the standard deviation

\sqrt{V[X]}=\sqrt{10}\approx\boxed{3.16}

Answer:

2. A, the first option

3. A, first option

Step-by-step explanation:

A segment is the part of a line that connects two points. It is the shortest distance between the two points. It has a length.

A ray is a part of a line that has one endpoint and goes on infinitely in only one direction. You cannot measure the length of a ray. A ray is named using its endpoint first, and then any other point on the ray

I hope this helps!!! Have a wonderful day!!!

For a certain population of men, 8 percent carry a certain genetic trait. For a certain population of women, 0.5 percent carry t
slavikrds [6]

Answer:

C) 150 men and 100 women

D) 200 men and 2000 women

E) 1000 men and 1000 women

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

To compare the proportion of people that carry certain genetic trait in men and woman from a certain population two variables of study where determined:

X₁: Number of men that carry the genetic trait.

X₁~Bi(n₁;p₁)

X₂: Number of women that carry the genetic trait.

X₂~Bi(n₂;p₂)

The parameter of interest is the difference between the population proportion of men that carry the genetic trait and the population proportion of women that carry the genetic trait, symbolically: p₁-p₂

To be able to study the difference between the population proportions you have to apply the Central Limit Theorem to approximate the distribution of both sample proportions to normal.

<u><em>Reminder:</em></u>

Be a variable with binomial distribution X~Bi(n;p), if a sample of size n is taken from the population in the study. Then the distribution of the sample proportion tends to the normal distribution with mean p and variance (pq)/n when the sample size tends to infinity.

As a rule, a sample of size greater than or equal to 30 is considered sufficient to apply the theorem and use the approximation.

So for both populations in the study, the sample sizes should be

n₁ ≥ 30

n₂ ≥ 30

Also:

Both samples should be independent and include at least 10 successes and 10 failures.

Both populations should be at least 20 times bigger than the samples. (This last condition is to be assumed because without prior information about the populations is impossible to verify)

  • If everything checks out then (p'₁-p'₂)≈N(p₁-p₂; p(1/n₁+1/n₂))

<u>The options are:</u>

A) 30 men and 30 women

n₁ ≥ 30 and n₂ ≥ 30

Both samples are big enough and independent.

Population 1

Successes: x₁= n₁*p₁= 30*0.08= 2.4

Failures: y₁= n₁*q₁= 30*0.92= 27.6

Population 2

Successes: x₂= n₂*p₂= 30*0.5= 15

Failures: y₂= n₂*q₂= 30*0.5= 15

The second condition is not met.

B) 125 men and 20 women

n₁ ≥ 30 but n₂ < 30

Both samples are independent but n₂ is not big enough for the approximation.

C) 150 men and 100 women

n₁ ≥ 30 and n₂ ≥ 30

Both samples are big enough and independent.

Population 1

Successes: x₁= n₁*p₁= 150*0.08= 12

Failures: y₁= n₁*q₁= 150*0.92= 138

Population 2

Successes: x₂= n₂*p₂= 100*0.5= 50

Failures: y₂= n₂*q₂= 100*0.5= 50

All conditions are met, an approximation to normal is valid.

D) 200 men and 2000 women

n₁ ≥ 30 and n₂ ≥ 30

Both samples are big enough and independent.

Population 1

Successes: x₁= n₁*p₁= 200*0.08= 16

Failures: y₁= n₁*q₁= 200*0.92= 184

Population 2

Successes: x₂= n₂*p₂= 2000*0.5= 1000

Failures: y₂= n₂*q₂= 2000*0.5= 1000

All conditions are met, an approximation to normal is valid.

E) 1000 men and 1000 women

n₁ ≥ 30 and n₂ ≥ 30

Both samples are big enough and independent.

Population 1

Successes: x₁= n₁*p₁= 1000*0.08= 80

Failures: y₁= n₁*q₁= 1000*0.92= 920

Population 2

Successes: x₂= n₂*p₂= 1000*0.5= 500

Failures: y₂= n₂*q₂= 1000*0.5= 500

All conditions are met, an approximation to normal is valid.

I hope this helps!

You are running a concession stand at a basketball game. You are selling hot dogs and sodas. Each hot dog costs $2.25 and each s
baherus [9]

The equations and the number of hotdogs and sodas sold are:  x+ y = 126 and 2.25x + 1.50y = 225.75 ; 49 hot dogs and 77 sodas.

Two equations can be derived from this question:

2.25x + 1.50y = 225.75 equation 1

x + y = 126 equation 2

Where:

x = number of hotdogs sold

y = number of soda sold

In order to determine the value of y, multiply equation 2 by 2.25

2.25x + 2.25y = 283.50 equation 3

Subtract equation 1 from 3

57.75 = 0.75y

y = 77

Substitute for y in equation 2

x + 77 = 126

x = 49
