1) When finding a median, order your numerical list from smallest to larger, as so: 2,2,3,4,5,6,8,9.
2) Then start eliminating numbers from each side of the order; (The bolded numbers will be removed.)
2,2,3,4,5,6,8,9
2,3,4,5,6,8,9
2,3,4,5,6,8
3,4,5,6,8
3,4,5,6
4,5,6
4,5
3) Since there is an even number of digits in your list, you will have to add the last two digits and then divide them by two. 4 and 5 are the last numbers standing, (4+5=9)(9/2=4.5) and therefore your answer, would be 4.5, or B.
Answer:
x<9
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
The appropriate probability model for X is a Binomial distribution,
X
Bin (<em>n</em> = 5, <em>p</em> = 1/33).
Step-by-step explanation:
The random variable <em>X</em> can be defined as the number of American births resulting in a defect.
The proportion of American births that result in a birth defect is approximately <em>p</em> = 1/33.
A random sample of <em>n</em> = 5 American births are selected.
It is assumed that the births are independent, i.e. a birth can be defective or not is independent of the other births.
In this experiment the success is defined as a defective birth.
The random variable <em>X</em> satisfies all criteria of a Binomial distribution.
The criteria are:
- Number of observations is constant
- Independent trials
- Each trial has only two outcomes: Success and Failure
- Same probability of success for each trial
Thus, the appropriate probability model for X is a Binomial distribution, Bin (<em>n</em> = 5, <em>p</em> = 1/33).
