Answer:

The standard deviation is of 7.22 people.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each person, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they have the mutation, or they do not. The probability of a person having the mutation is independent of any other person, which means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

Probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, with p probability.

The expected value of the binomial distribution is:

E(X) = np

The standard deviation of the binomial distribution is:

\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)}

About 7% of the population has a particular genetic mutation.

This means that p = 0.07

800 people are randomly selected.

This means that n = 800

Find the standard deviation for the number of people with the genetic mutation in such groups of 800.

\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)} = \sqrt{800*0.07*0.93} = 7.22

The standard deviation is of 7.22 people.

Find the area of each figure. round to the hundredths place when necessary
notsponge [240]

Answer:

115.48m^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

This shape can be split into two distinct shapes

Two halves of a semi circle, and a rectangle in between

Circle:

Putting both halves of the semi circle together will give you a full circle. The diameter of the circle is given (7m).

The area of a circle is A = π r^{2}

The radius, r, is half of the diameter, so 7 / 2 = 3.5m

A = π r^{2}

A = π * 3.5^{2}

A = 38.38m^{2}

Rectangle:

The area of a rectangle is A = h b

The height, h, is known at 7m

The base, b, can be found by removing the length from the dot to the end of the semi circles. This length is the radius of the semi circles, 3.5m

Removing the radius from the total length given

18 - 3.5 - 3.5 = 11m

The base is 11m

A = h b

A = 7 * 11 = 77m^{2}

Total Area = Circle area + Rectangle area

Total Area = 38.38 + 77 = 115.48m^{2}
