Answer:

a) 4,3,6,7,9

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>The value of standard deviation does not get affected if we add constant number in every observation.</em>

In the given data set if we add 1 in every observation then we will get same value as given in option (a).

Thus, the standard deviation of both the observation is same.

Also, we didn't get other options by addition and subtraction of any constant value.

Further, Standard Deviation is used to measure spread of the data and it is defined as square of the distance between the observation and mean of the distribution.

The cost of health insurance is $900 per month. The cost of an operation for a dramatic injury is $500,000. The chances of someo

lord [1]

Answer:

Yes, It is better to buy the insurance.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given Data:

Cost of Health Insurance for a month = 900$ per month

As 20 Years = 20*12 months = 240 months

Cost of Health Insurance for 20 years = 900 * 240

Cost of Health Insurance for 20 years = 216,000$

Insurance claim in case of having dramatic injury = Cost of Dramatic Injury = 500,000$

Insurance claim in case of having no dramatic injury = 0$

Chances of dramatic injury in 20 years = P(A) = 47.3%

Chances of not having dramatic injury in 20 years = P(B) = 100% - 47.3%

Chances of not having dramatic injury in 20 years = P(B) = 52.7%

Expected Insurance Claim for 20 years:

Expected Insurance Claim for 20 years = (Chances of having dramatic injury in 20 years * Insurance claim) + (Chances of not having dramatic injury * Insurance claim)

Expected Insurance Claim for 20 years = P(A) * 500,000$ + P(B) * 0$

Expected Insurance Claim for 20 years = 47.3% * 500,000 + 52.7% * 0

Expected Insurance Claim for 20 years = 236500 + 0

Expected Insurance Claim for 20 years = 236,500$

Expected Profit:

As expected insurance claim is 236,500$ is more than the cost of health insurance for 20 years and we are expected to have profit of 20,500$, thus we should take the health insurance.

What is the difference of the fractions? Use the number line to help find the answer.

vova2212 [387]

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Hello, remember you need to write complete questions in order to get good and exact answers. Here you haven't provided any fractions, so I'll give you my own fractions.

The first fraction is:

$\frac{1}{2}$

The second fraction is:

$\frac{1}{4}$

So let's say that difference is:

$\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{4}$

Therefore, the result is:

$\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{4}=\frac{1}{4}$

The representation of this problem is shown using the number line below. As you can see, we have written both 1/2 and 1/4 and the difference is also indicated giving the result 1/4. That is, if we walk from 1/4 to 1/2 we'll walk 1/4 units.
