1 answer:
Answer:
210 books
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello
I think I can help you with this
Step 1
if one box is 7.5% of the total shipment, how many box is the total shipment
1 box =7.5%
x?box=100%
using a rule of three
Now, isolating x
13.34 boxes is the total
Step 2
find the total of books
we will need 14 boxes, because it does not exist 0.34 box
so, the total of books=
number of boxes*number of books included in each box
=14 boxes*15 books
=210 books
Have a great day

a) Add up all the probabilities where
:
b) The expected value is
Since X is the number of absent students on Monday, the expectation E[X] is the number of students you can expect to be absent on average on any given Monday. According to the distribution, you can expect around 3 students to be consistently absent.
c) The variance is
where
So the variance is
The standard deviation is the square root of the variance:
d) Since is a linear combination of
, computing the expectation and variance of Y is easy:
e) The covariance of X and Y is
We have
so
Then the covariance is
f) Dividing the covariance by the variance of X gives
