A farmer picks pumpkins from a large field. The farmer makes samples of 260 pumpkins and inspects them. If one in fifty pumpkins

are not fit to market and will be saved for seeds, what is the standard deviation of the mean of the sampling distribution of sample proportions?

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

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

g = cst

Solving

g = cst

Solving for variable 'g'.

Move all terms containing g to the left, all other terms to the right.

Simplifying

g = cst

On a sheet of paper, you have 100 statements written down.
serg [7]

Answer:

50

Step-by-step explanation:

If the first statement its true (At most 0 of the statements are true), there are not true statements in the paper. So, the first statement its false.

Now, if the first statement its false, this mean there must be at least 1  true statement in the paper.

Now, if the second statement its true ( at most 1 of the statements are true) this implies that the third statement its true (if "at most 1" its true, then "as most 2" must be true).

If any statement (besides the first) its true, then all the statement that follows it must be true.

The first non false statement, then, must be the statement made by the person 51:  "At most 50 statements are true"

And the 49 statements that follows are true as well.

Choose the correct equation for the line shown on the graph?
fomenos

<u>Answer:</u>

y=-1/4x-1

<u>How to find the </u><u>slope</u>

To find the slope of the line you need to do the change in y/change in x. This is also known as the rise/run. To do this you count the spaces in between the two points.

In this graph the change in y (rise) is 2. The change in x (run) is 8. Since the line is going down they are negative. The rise/run is -2/8. This can be simplified to -1/4.

Slope: -1/4x

<u>How to find the y-intercept</u>

To find the y-intercept, you need to look at where the line crosses y.

In this graph the line crosses y at -1.

Y-intercept: -1

Indicate in standard form the equation of the line passing through the given points G (4,6) H (1,5)
Delicious77 [7]

First, find the slope (m) = \frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1} = \frac{5 - 6}{1 - 4} = \frac{-1}{-3} = \frac{1}{3}

Now plug in ONE of the points and the slope into the point-slope equation:

y - y₁ = m(x - x₁); where (x₁, y₁) is the chosen point.

y - 5 = \frac{1}{3}(x - 1) (I used (1,5) as the chosen point)

3(y - 5) = x - 1

3y - 15 = x - 1

3y -14 = x

-14 = x - 3y → x - 3y = -14

Answer: x - 3y = -14
