Answer:

10 incorrect answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Correct answer = +3

Incorrect answer = - 1

Mark scored = 20

Number of correct answers = 10

Let:

Incorrect answers = y

Hence, we can fashion out the expression for total score :

(Number of correct answers * score per Correct answer + number of incorrect * score per incorrect) = total score

(10 * 3) + (y * - 1) = 20

30 - y = 20

-y = 20 - 30

-y = - 10

y = 10

Find an equation of variation where y varies directly as x and y = 7 when x = 0.5 .
Alisiya [41]

Answer:

y = 14x

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the direct variation equation, y = kx

Plug in 7 as y and 0.5 as x, and solve for k:

y = kx

7 = k(0.5)

14 = k

Plug this into the equation:

y = kx

y = 14x

So, the equation of variation is y = 14x

cricket20 [7]

Answer:

c) skewed to the right.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to remember that is a distribution is skewed to the right then we have the following condition satisfied:

Mode< Median

And if is skewed to the left then we have:

Mean

If the distribution is symmetric we need to satisfy:

Mean = Median=Mode

For this case since we have most of the values between 200000 and 500000 when we put atypical values like 15000000 that would affect the sample mean and on this case the sample mean would larger than the sample median because the median is a robust measure of central tendency not affected by outliers.

So for this special case we can say that the Mean>Median. And probably the median would be higher than the mode so then we can conclude that the best answer for this case would be:

c) skewed to the right.

cupoosta [38]

Answer:

Yes, the random conditions are met

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, np^ = 32 and n(1 − p^) = 18.

Thus, we can say that:Yes, the random condition for finding confidence intervals is met because the values of np^ and n(1 − p^) are greater than 10.

Also, Yes, the random condition for finding confidence intervals is met because the sample size is greater than 30.

Confidence interval approach is valid if;

1) sample is a simple random sample

2) sample size is sufficiently large, which means that it includes at least 10 successes and 10 failures. In general a sample size of 30 is considered sufficient.

These two conditions are met by the sample described in the question.

So, Yes, the random conditions are met.
