A random sample of math majors taking an introductory statistics course were surveyed after completing the final exam. They were

asked, "How many times did you review your final exam before handing it in to the professor?" The results are displayed in a probability density function for the random variable X, the number of times students reviewed their exam before handing it in. Find the standard deviation of X. Round the final answer to two decimal places. x P(X = x) 1 1/5 2 2/5 7 2/5

Answer:

E(X) =1 *\frac{1}{5} +2 *\frac{2}{5} +7*\frac{2}{5}= 3.8

Now we can find the second moment with this formula:

E(X^2) = \sum_{i=1}^n X^2_i P(X_i)

And replacing we got:

E(X^2) =1^2 *\frac{1}{5} +2^2 *\frac{2}{5} +7^2*\frac{2}{5}= 21.4

The variance would be given by:

Var(X) =E(X^2) -[E(X)]^2 = 21.4 -[3.8]^2 = 6.96

And the deviation would be:

Sd(X) =\sqrt{6.96}= 2.638

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have the following distribution given:

X      1      2      7

P(X) 1/5  2/5   2/5

We need to begin finding the mean with this formula:

E(X) = \sum_{i=1}^n X_i P(X_i)

And replacing we got:

E(X) =1 *\frac{1}{5} +2 *\frac{2}{5} +7*\frac{2}{5}= 3.8

Now we can find the second moment with this formula:

E(X^2) = \sum_{i=1}^n X^2_i P(X_i)

And replacing we got:

E(X^2) =1^2 *\frac{1}{5} +2^2 *\frac{2}{5} +7^2*\frac{2}{5}= 21.4

The variance would be given by:

Var(X) =E(X^2) -[E(X)]^2 = 21.4 -[3.8]^2 = 6.96

And the deviation would be:

Sd(X) =\sqrt{6.96}= 2.638

James is selecting a marble. James chooses a marble at random and then replaces it. He then selects a second marble at random. W
tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

The probability of selecting a solid black marbles both times;

P = 9/100

Attached is the completed question;

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of solid black marbles = 3

Total number of marbles = 10

The probability of selecting a solid black marble;

P1 = 3/10

With the assumption that the marbles are replaced before next selection.

The probability of selecting a solid black marbles both times;

P = P1 × P1 = 3/10 × 3/10 = 9/100

P = 9/100

Equation M: y = 3x + 4
solmaris [256]
Y = 3x + 4
y = 3x + 7

3x + 4 = 3x + 7
3x - 3x = 7 - 4
0 = 3.....incorrect....this system has no solutions because ur lines are parallel and they never cross.

or look at it this way..
y = 3x + 4
y = 3x + 7

both have slopes of 3...but the y intercepts are different......when this happens, it means the lines are parallel with no solution
