Answer:

The mean and standard devaition of W are 6 and 31 respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

W = 7 + 2X

Variance (W) = Variance(7 + 2X)

For a term constant term, the variance is zero.

So;

W = Var (2X)

W = 4 × Var(X)

W = 4 × (SD (X))²

W = 4 × (3)²

W = 4 × 9

W = 36

Thus, Variance (W) = 36

The standard deviation of W = \sqrt{variance}

W = \sqrt{36}

W = 6

Also;

E(W) = E(7 +2 X)

E(W) = 7 + 2 × E(X)

where;

mean X = 12

E(W) = 7 + 2(12)

E(W) = 31

Thus, the mean and standard devaition of W are 6 and 31 respectively.

The speed, v, of a wave is inversely proportional to the square root of the
yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

v = 120

Step-by-step explanation:

If v is inversely proportional to square root of d, then we can write

v \sqrt{d} = k    

If v  = 30 and d = 400, then

30(\sqrt{400}) = k

k = 30(20) = 600

Now v \sqrt{d} = 600

If d = 25, then v\sqrt{25} = 600

                         5v = 600

                            v = 120

BRAINILEST!!!Mikel is determining if the two triangles below could be similar based on their side lengths.
dybincka [34]

ANSWER

statements accurately describe the triangles

The triangles could not be similar.


The ratios of the side lengths are not consistent.


Reason

As shown in the diagram the sides of the triangle are given

Similarity property on the sides length of the triangle

The corresponding sides of the two triangles are proportional the triangles must be similar.

\frac{WX}{RT} = \frac{18.0}{8.0}

= 2.25

\frac{WU}{TS} = \frac{15.0}{6.0}

 =2.5

\frac{UX}{RS} = \frac{7.5}{3.0}

  =2.5

Thus by above we get

The ratios of the side lengths are not consistent.

thus  triangles could not be similar.

Hence proved

The shade of marble tile is measured by the amount of light reflected by the tile measured on a scale of 0-255. A perfectly blac
Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Sample data

204.999 206.149 202.102 207.048 203.496 206.343 203.496 206.676 205.831

N=9

Sum, Σx: 1846.14

Mean, μ: 205.12666666667

Variance, s^2:  2.6217475555555

Std dev = s = 1.619

The sample mean follows a t distribtion with df =8

Mean difference = 205.13-204.8 = 0.50

Std error = std dev/sqrt n = 0.540

Test statistic = Mean diff/se = 0.9259

p value = 0.1907 (one tailed at 95%)

Since p >0.05 we accept null hypothesis.

We cannot conclude that  the mean shade of Mezza Perla tile (µ) is greater than 204.8
