Complete question:
A project is graded on a scale of 1 to 5. If the random variable, X, is the project grade, what is the mean of the probability
distribution below?
Grade(X)_____ 1_____2_____3_____4_____5
Frequency____3 _____5____ 9 ____ 5 ____ 3
P(X) : _______ 0.1 ___0.2 ___0.4 ___ 0.2 __0.1
Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the probability distribution :
Grade(X)_____ 1_____2_____3_____4_____5
Frequency____3 _____5____ 9 ____ 5 ____ 3
P(X) : _______ 0.1 ___0.2 ___0.4 ___ 0.2 __0.1
The mean of the distribution :
Σ(X * P(X)) :
(1*0. 1) + (2 * 0.2) + (3 * 0.4) + (4 * 0.2) + (5 * 0.1)
0.1 + 0.4 + 1.2 + 0.8 + 0.5
= 3
Answer:
(1, 1 )
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the 2 equations
y = - 5x + 6 → (1)
y = 3x - 2 → (2)
Since both equations express y in terms of x, equate the right sides
3x - 2 = - 5x + 6 ( add 5x to both sides )
8x - 2 = 6 ( add 2 to both sides )
8x = 8 ( divide both sides by 8 )
x = 1
Substitute x = 1 into either of the 2 equations for corresponding value of y
Substituting x = 1 in (2)
y = 3(1) - 2 = 3 - 2 = 1
Solution is (1, 1 )
Answer:
B. Y=4x+250
Step-by-step explanation:
Y= total cost for Paula's bakery per week
Cost of rent and electricity=$250
Ingredients for 1 cake =$4
Number of cake=x
Cost of x cake=$4*x
=$4x
Total cost (Y)=cost of rent and electricity+cost of making x cake
Y=$250+$4x
It can also be written as
Y=4x+250
