<h3>Answer: Choice A</h3>

=========================================================

Explanation:

A proportional linear relationship is of the form y = kx

We can solve for k to get k = y/x.

Based on that, we can prove a table is a proportional linear relationship if and only if each column of x,y values divide to the same number.

Choice A shows that y/x = 2/8 = 1/4 for the first column; however, y/x = 8/16 = 1/2 for the second column. The outputs 1/4 and 1/2 not being the same indicates we don't have a constant k value for all of the columns. This is sufficient to show that table A is not a proportional linear relationship.

-------------

In contrast, table B is a proportional linear relationship because we have these four divisions that lead to the same value (1/8)

Column One: y/x = 2/16 = 1/8
Column Two: y/x = 4/32 = 1/8
Column Three: y/x = 6/48 = 1/8
Column Four: y/x = 8/48 = 1/8

Showing that k = 1/8 for table B. The equation here is y = (1/8)x. We can rule out choice B.

I'll let you check out tables C and D on your own, but you should find that a similar situation shows up as did with table B. This indicates tables C and D are also proportional linear relationships. We can rule out choices C and D.

An exponential random variable has a standard deviation of 16. Calculate The probability that it takes on a value < 11. Use 3

Answer:

$P(X$

And using the cdf we got:

$P(X$

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

The exponential distribution is "the probability distribution of the time between events in a Poisson process (a process in which events occur continuously and independently at a constant average rate). It is a particular case of the gamma distribution". The probability density function is given by:

$P(X=x)=\lambda e^{-\lambda x}, x>0$

And 0 for other case. Let X the random variable that represent the random variable of interest and we know that the distribution is given by:

$X \sim Exp(\lambda)$

We know the variance on this case given by :

$Var(X) = \frac{1}{\lambda^2}$

So then the deviation is given by:

$Sd(X) = \frac{1}{\sqrt{\lambda}}$

And if we solve for $\lambda$ we got:

$\lambda = (\frac{1}{16})^2 = \frac{1}{256}$

The cumulative distribution function for the exponential distribution is given by:

$F(x) = 1- e^{-\lambda x}$

Solution to the problem

And for this case we want to find this probability:

$P(X$

And using the cdf we got:

$P(X$

Simplify: (2x2 − 9x + 3) + (−7x2 + 4x − 2)

Leokris [45]

Combine like terms
2x^2 + -7x^2 = -5x^2
-9x + 4x = -5x
3 + -2 = 1
put back together
-5x^2 - 5x +1
