Answer and Explanation:
Given : Five males with an X-linked genetic disorder have one child each. The random variable x is the number of children among the five who inherit the X-linked genetic disorder.
To find :
a. Does the table show a probability distribution?
b. Find the mean and standard deviation of the random variable x.
Solution :
a) To determine that table shows a probability distribution we add up all six probabilities if the sum is 1 then it is a valid distribution.
Yes it is a probability distribution.
b) First we create the table as per requirements,
x P(x) xP(x) x² x²P(x)
0 0.029 0 0 0
1 0.147 0.147 1 0.147
2 0.324 0.648 4 1.296
3 0.324 0.972 9 2.916
4 0.147 0.588 16 2.352
5 0.029 0.145 25 0.725
∑P(x)=1 ∑xP(x)=2.5 ∑x²P(x)=7.436
The mean of the random variable is
The standard deviation of the random sample is
Therefore, The mean is 2.5 and the standard deviation is 1.08.
Answer:
900 cubic inches.
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Given the following data </u>
Volume of right circular cone = 300in³
We know that the volume of a right circular cone is given by the formula;
Where;
- V is the volume of right circular cone.
- r is the radius of the base of the right circular cone.
- h is the height of the right circular cone.
The volume of a right circular cylinder is given by the formula;
Thus, multiplying the volume of the right circular cone by 3 would give us the volume of the right circular cylinder.
<em>Substituting into the equation, we have;</em>
V = 300 * 3
V = 900in³
<em>Therefore, the volume of a right cylinder that has the same base and height as the cone is 900 cubic inches.</em>
