This question is incomplete, the complete question is;

Let X denote the time in minutes (rounded to the nearest half minute) for a blood sample to be taken. The probability mass function for X is:

x     0       0.5       1       1.5       2       2.5

f(x)  0.1     0.2     0.3    0.2     0.1       0.1

determine;

a) P( X < 2.5 )

B) P( 0.75 < X ≤ 1.5 )

Answer:

a) P( X < 2.5 ) = 0.9

b) P( 0.75 < X ≤ 1.5 ) = 0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data in the question;

The probability mass function for X is:

x     0       0.5       1       1.5       2       2.5

f(x)  0.1     0.2     0.3    0.2     0.1       0.1

a) P( X < 2.5 )

P( X < 2.5 ) = p[ x = 0 ] + p[ x = 0.5 ] + p[ x = 1 ] + p[ x = 1.5 ] + p[ x = 2 ]

so

P( X < 2.5 ) = 0.1 + 0.2 + 0.3 + 0.2 + 0.1

P( X < 2.5 ) = 0.9

b) P( 0.75 < X ≤ 1.5 )

P( 0.75 < X ≤ 1.5 ) = p[ x = 1 ] + p[ x = 1.5 ]

so

P( 0.75 < X ≤ 1.5 ) = 0.3 + 0.2

P( 0.75 < X ≤ 1.5 ) = 0.5

1) 5.10-2.8.16. 10-1
const2013 [10]

Answer: -2511 (if the periods mean multiplication)

Step-by-step explanation:

I’m not sure whether you’re trying to have the periods be multiplication, but if that’s what they are, this is the answer

5x10-2x8x16x10-1

50-16x160-1

50-2560-1

-2511

Again, I’m not sure if that’s what you mean but I can’t really see what else they would mean since you can’t have a 3 part decimal

1. Evaluate -3x^3 -2y^2 when x=-5 and y =3
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

357

Step-by-step explanation:

A) We replace x = - 5 and u = 3 into -3x^3 -2y^2

and we have -3x^3 -2y^2= -3*(-5)^3 -2*3^2= -3*(-125)- 2*9

or -3x^3 -2y^2 = 375-18= 357

The answer is 357.

B) Replace h = -2 into h^2-3h+2

we have h^2-3h+2 = (-2)^2 -3*(-2) +2 = 4 +6 + 2= 12

The answer is 12

Have a good day.

dem82 [27]
Dr.hong prescribed the lest and Dr.evans prescribed the most. that is the answer but this is how i got the answer ok so you see that hong gave 0.019 that is not at all the same as 0.02 so you would add a zero to Evans so it would be 0.020 so it is the same length of hongs so now do you know how i got that if not then message me
