A piece of wood is divided into two pieces in the ratio of 2:5. One piece is 10 cm long so how long is the other piece?
klio [65]

Answer:

The length of the pother piece of the wood is 25 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of a piece of wood is x such that the ratio of two pieces is 2:5. Two pieces are 2x and 5 x

Length of the first piece is 10 cm. It means, 2x = 10 i.e. x = 5

We have considered that the length of other piece is 5x. It means 5×5 = 25 cm.

Hence, the length of the pother piece of the wood is 25 cm

Why are unbiased estimators preferred over biased estimators?
DIA [1.3K]

agasfer [191]

Answer:

a) \frac{8}{9} =0.89

b) 0.8413

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

P(║ x -\mu║ \leq  k\sigma) \geq 1 -\frac{1}{k^2}

so, \mu = 150, \sigma = 20

k =  \frac{210 - 150}{20} =\frac{150 - 90}{20} = 3

P(║ x -150 ║ \leq  3\times 20) \geq 1 -\frac{1}{3^2} = \frac{8}{9}

x - N(150, 20^2)

P(X \leq 170) = 0.8413447

check

P norm = \frac{170 - 150}{20}= 0.8413447
