Answer:

Mean=685

Variance=36.7

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean of uniform discrete distribution can be expressed as the average of the boundaries

mean=( b+a)/2

The variance of uniform discrete distribution can be expressed as the difference of the boundaries decreased by 1 and squared, decreased by 1 and divided by 12.

σ²=[(b-a+1)^2 - 1]/12

We were given the wavelength from from 675 to 695 nm which means

a= 675, b= 695

We can now calculate the mean by using the expresion below

mean=( b+a)/2

Mean=( 675 + 695)/2

=685

The variance can be calculated by using the expression below

σ²=[(b-a+1)^2 - 1]/12

σ²=[(695-675+1)^2 -1]/12

σ²=440/12

σ²=36.7

Therefore, the the mean and variance, of the wavelength distribution for this radiation are 685 and 36.7 respectively

What is x² + 7x - 30​
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Are you looking for the value of x?

We can complete the square/factor:

x^2+7x-30=0

(x+10)(x-3)=0

By the zero product property rule, we have two equations, x+10=0 and x-3=0.

So the zeroes of x are -10 and 3

Hope this helped. Comment below if this didn't make sense.

Paladinen [302]

If 1/10 of the tank is filled in 1/5 of an hour, then multiplying both of those by 5 you would get 5/10 of a tank being filled in a full hour, or answer choice A. Hope this helps! By the way, sorry for the incorrect answer a couple years ago :)

Find the median of the following data set: "4 8 5 3 9 7 6"
Schach [20]

Answer:

6, Arrange your numbers in numerical order, Count how many numbers you have, If you have an odd number, divide by 2 and round up to get the position of the median number, then If you have an even number, divide by 2. Go to the number in that position and average it with the number in the next higher position to get the median.
