Answer:

120

Step-by-step explanation:

Boys will be the'2' of this ratio

e we know that 2x3 = 6

so, 40 x 3 will give us the number of girls

8 0

ratio can be simplified to 1:3

for every 1 boy there are 3 girls and together there are 4 total kids. So there would be 30 girls and 10 boys in the classroom.

An airplane flies 80 km in 10 minutes and then flies 100 km in 20 minutes what is the average speed

Eddi Din [679]

The average speed = (speed 1 + speed 2)/2
the average speed = (80/10 + 100/20)/2
the average speed = (8 + 5)/2
the average speed = 13/2
the average speed = 6.5 km/minute

Answer:

The following are the answer to this question:

Step-by-step explanation:

In the given question the numeric value is missing which is defined in the attached file please fine it.

Calculating the probability of the distribution for x:

$\to f(x) = 0.19\ for \ x=14\\\\\to f(x) = 0.29 \ for\ x=7\\\\\to f(x) = 0.38\ for \ x=1\\\\\to f(x)=0.14 \ for \ x=0\\$

The formula for calculating the mean value:

$\bold{ E(X)= x \times f(x)}$

$=14 \times 0.19+7 \times 0.29+1 \times 0.38+0\times 0.14\\\\=2.66 + 2.03+0.38+ 0\\\\=5.07$

$\bold{E(X^2) = x^2 \times f(x)}$

$=14^2 \times 0.19+7^2 \times 0.29+1^2 \times 0.38+0^2 \times 0.14 \\\\=196 \times 0.19+ 49 \times 0.29+1 \times 0.38+0 \times 0.14\\\\= 37.24+ 14.21+ 0.38+0 \\\\=51.83$
