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

It's candy time! Suppose 5 friends go out candy collecting. Starting out, Ms. Gleason gave each of them 12 pieces of candy. Then
sdas [7]

Answer:

6 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

First, since they all collected 510, you divide 510 by 5, to figure out how much each person got.

You then know that each of them got 102 candies, so now, you subtract 12 from from 102, since the teacher gave them that much in the beginning.

You're left with 90, so last step is to divide 90 by 15, since they collect 15 every hour, which you get left with 6. Meaning they collected candies for 6 hours

Ines has saved $5. She doubles the amount she saves each week. Does the function have a constant difference or a constant ratio?
salantis [7]

Answer:

The function have a constant ratio

No, it does not represent an exponential function.

Step-by-step explanation:

As given,

Ines has saved $5. She doubles the amount she saves each week.

⇒ In first week she saved = $5

   In second week she saved = 2×$5 = $10

   In third week she saved = 2×$10 = 20

  In fourth week she saved = 2×$20 = 40

and so on..

∴ we get the series

5, 10, 20, 40 ,.......

If the series is given as a, b, c, d, ..... , then

The common difference is defined as d = b-a = c-b

The common ration is defined as r = \frac{b}{a} = \frac{c}{b}

Here, in the given question

The series is - 5, 10, 20, 40

This has no common difference , d =   10 - 5 (= 5 )≠ 20 - 10 (= 10)

As 5 ≠ 10

So the function does not define common difference .

Now,

This has common ratio , r =  \frac{10}{5} (=2) = \frac{20}{10}(=2)

As 2 = 2

So, the function represent common ratio

Now,

The function does not represent an exponential function because it is increased by common ratio.
