Answer:

\mu = 5.2

\sigma = 2.257

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

n = 260 -- samples

p = \frac{1}{50} --- one in 50

Solving (a): The mean

This is calculated as:

\mu = np

\mu = 260 * \frac{1}{50}

\mu = 5.2

Solving (b): The standard deviation

This is calculated as:

\sigma = \sqrt{\mu * (1-p)}

\sigma = \sqrt{5.2 * (1-1/50)}

\sigma = \sqrt{5.2 * 0.98}

\sigma = \sqrt{5.096}

\sigma = 2.257

The equation for the circle below is x^2+y^2=4. what is the length of the circle’s radius
Inessa05 [86]
2 because in the equation of a circle it is x^2 + y^2 = r^2, r=radius so you would take the square root of 4, leaving the radius of the circle to be 2.

What are one dimensional figures
agasfer [191]
Hello!

In geometry there are three dimensions.

Something that is one dimensional is neither flat, wide, or tall. It is just a line.
——————————————
Something two dimensional is flat and wide but has no height. An example of this is a square.

Something three dimensional is wide and tall, and has flat faces. An example is a cube.

To answer your question something one dimensional is something that is not flat, wide, or tall, such as a line.

Hope this helped!

What’s the solution of y= 3x-1 and y= 3x+4
julia-pushkina [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

solution ? you mean where both lines cross each other ?

these are 2 parallel lines (same slope, but different y-intercept), so they never cross each other.

there is no solution.

formally :

3x - 1 = 3x + 4

-1 = 4

this is wrong. therefore there is no solution.
