Answers:

Red = negative skew
Yellow = symmetric
Blue = positive skew

================================================

Explanation:

A symmetric distribution is where we have the left half be a mirror copy of the right half. In other words, we have symmetry going on.

For the yellow team, note the distance between Q1 and the median is 1 unit (47-46 = 1), and so is the distance from the median to Q3 (48-47 = 1). So the box portion has perfect symmetry. You should find that the whiskers are also perfectly symmetric as well using a similar technique of finding the distances and comparing them.

Overall, the entire box-and-whisker plot for the yellow team is perfectly symmetric.

---------------

If a distribution isn't symmetric, then it's skewed in some way. If the right side is pulled longer than the left, then we consider it "skewed to the right" aka "positively skewed". So that applies to the blue team. The red team has negative skew because its left tail is longer than the right tail.

Answer:

Dynamic equilibrium

Step-by-step explanation:

Dynamic equilibrium in the human body is achieved when there is an internal control which tends to oppose certain outside forces which could affect the body. It's known to be the ability to detect and respond to stimuli by living organisms. When these stimuli occur, there are feedbacks or responses that are sent or received by the body to maintain stability. This dynamic equilibrium of the internal environment can also be seen as homeostasis.

Answer:

Approximately (2, 1)

See image

Step-by-step explanation:

Rearrange each equation so it is ready to be graphed on an x-y-axis (see image) look for the point where the two lines cross. This is the solution for the system of equations.

dybincka [34]

Answer:

0.0274

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean is $\mu =114.8$ and the standard deviation is $\sigma =13.1.$

Calculate

$Z=\dfrac{X-\mu}{\sigma}$

for $X=140:$

$Z=\dfrac{140-114.8}{13.1}\approx 1.9237.$

If $X\sim N(114.8,\ 13.1),$ then $Z\sim N(0,1)$

and

$Pr(X>140)=Pr(Z>1.9237).$

Use table for normal distribution probabilities to get that

$Pr(Z>1.9237)=1-Pr(Z\le 1.9237)=1-0.9726=0.0274.$

Find the probability that a randomly generated bit string of length 10 does not contain a 0 if bits are independent and if a 0 b

jeka94

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information; Let's assume that R should represent the set of all possible outcomes generated from a bit string of length 10 .

So; as each place is fitted with either 0 or 1

$\mathbf{|R|= 2^{10}}$

Similarly; the event E signifies the randomly generated bit string of length 10 does not contain a 0

Now;

if a 0 bit and a 1 bit are equally likely

The probability that a randomly generated bit string of length 10 does not contain a 0 if bits are independent and if a 0 bit and a 1 bit are equally likely is;

$\mathbf{P(E) = \dfrac{|E|}{|R|}}$
