Answer:

The standard deviation of this probability distribution is 1.2.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that:

P(X = 0) = 0.25

P(X = 1) = 0.3

P(X = 2) = 0.1

P(X = 3) = 0.35

Mean:

Each value multiplied by its probability. So

M = 0*0.25 + 1*0.3 + 2*0.1 + 3*0.35 = 1.55

Variance:

Sum of the squares of the values subtracted from the mean, and multiplied by its probability.

V = 0.25*(0-1.55)^2 + 0.3*(1-1.55)^2 + 0.1*(2-1.55)^2 + 0.35*(3-1.55)^2 = 1.4475

Standard deviation:

Square root of the variance. So

S = \sqrt{V} = \sqrt{1.4475} = 1.2

The standard deviation of this probability distribution is 1.2.

3, 10, 17, 24. what is the 50th term in the sequence
Kamila [148]
Check if you can write an equation relating the term number to the actual value
n1=3
n2=10 = 3+7
n3= 17 = n2+7 = n1+7+7 = n1 +2*7
n4= 24 = n1+3*7

so you will notice a pattern
for the x-th term

n_x =3+(x-1)*7

the 50th term would be n_50 = 3+(50-1) * 7
