Answer:

mean = 2.55

Standard deviation = 1.118

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability of babies who are boys

P = 0.51

Then we have q = 1-p

= 1-0.51

= 0.49

We have n = 5

We calculate the mean as:

np

= 0.51x5

= 2.55

Therefore mean = 2.55

The standard deviation

= √variance

= √npq

= √0.51x5x0.49

=√1.2495

= 1.118

Cost of the student ticket to the school play is $7. Write an equation that correctly relates the total cost, c,
Molodets [167]

Complete question :

The cost of a student ticket to the school play is $7. Write an equation that correctly relates the total cost, c, for a particular number, s, of student tickets purchased. Identify the independent and dependent variable.

Answer:

Dependent variable = Total cost

Independent variable = number of students

Step-by-step explanation:

The total cost equation is :

Total cost, c = cost per ticket * number of tickets

c = 7 * s

c = 7s

The Independent variable also called the predictor variable is the number of students in the scenario described above as it is the variable upon which the total cost relies. It dictates the value of the output or dependent variable. As we vary the value of the Independent variable, number of students, the total cost which is the dependent variable also varies. The dependent variable on the other hand is the predicted value or variable which is controlled by the independent variable. The dependent variable in this case is the total cost, c

Which statement best illustrates using the vertical line test to determine if the graph below is a function of x ?
kirill115 [55]

If something is a function, every x-value, only has one (1) y-value. If the line x = 0 intersects the graph in two points, there are to values for y (instead of one). Therefore the graph is not a function of x.


Your answer is A.

Solve the system of equation <br> Y=4x-11<br> Y=x+13<br><br> X=<br><br><br> Y =
Phoenix [80]

Answer:

(8,21)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since both equations equal y, set both equaitions equal to each other

and solve for x

4x-11=x+13 , subtract x from both sides

3x-11=13, add eleven to both sides

3x=24, divide both sides by 3 to get x alone

x=8

Substitute x=8 into either equation to solve for y

y=4(8)-11

y=32-11

y=21
