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

The graph of the function f(x) = (x − 3)(x + 1) is shown.
Travka [436]

Answer:

Real values of x where x < -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Above the x-axis, the function is positive.

The function is decreasing when the gradient is negative.

The function has a positive

{x}^{2}

coefficient, therefore the vertex is a local minimum;

This means the gradients are negative before the vertex and positive after it;

To meet the conditions therefore, the function must be before the vertex and above the x-axis;

This will be anywhere before the x-intercept at x = -1;

Hence it is when x < -1.

You are hiking and are trying to determine how far away the nearest cabin is, which happens to be due north from your current po
Margaret [11]

Answer:

336.7 yards away from the cabin....

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle 30.7° is also the angle of the upper interior angle of the triangle (near the cabin)

Use the tan function:

opposite = 200 yards

adjacent = x

tan(30.7°) = (opposite / adjacent)

tan(30.7°) = 200 yards/x

x * tan(30.7°) = 200 yards

x = 200 yards/ tan(30.7°)

x= 200/ 0.594

x = 336.7 yards.

336.7 yards away from the cabin....
