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

Answer:

<u>Step 1:  Set x to 0 </u>

-2(0) + y = 3

y = 3

(0, 3)

<u>Step 2:  Set x to 1 </u>

-2(1) + y = 3

-2 + y + 2 = 3 + 2

y = 5

(1, 5)

<u>Step 3:  Set x to 2 </u>

-2(2) + y = 3

-4 + y + 4 = 3 + 4

y = 7

(2, 7)

<u>Step 4:  Set x to 3 </u>

-2(3) + y = 3

-6 + y + 6 = 3 + 6

y = 9

(3, 9)

$5000 × 1.1%=$55

$55 × 12 mos. in a year= $660 yearly on this percent

calculate
$660 × 8 years from now =$5280

so the answer would be 1.1% I assume

NEED URGENT HELP!

(3,9)(5,15)
slope = (15 - 9) / (5 - 3) = 6/2 = 3

y = mx + b
slope(m) = 3
(3,9)...x = 3 and y = 9
sub and find b, the y int
9 = 3(3) + b
9 = 9 + b
9 - 9 = b
0 = b

so ur equation is : y = 3x + 0....can be written as y = 3x.

after 12 months...
y = 3x...x = 12
y = 3(12)
y = 36 inches

The correct answer is 15 because if you make a graph you find 2.5 then go up to 15 because the graph would be linear
