Answer:

C.   37.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

From the table, we know that the relative frequency of Contractors that prefer Glossy finish is 0.18, and the frequency of Contractors is 0.48. Therefore, contractors who prefer the glossy finish represent 0.18/0.48 = 0.375 or 0.375*100 = 37.5% of the total people surveyed.

X=y<br> x+2y =3<br> Solve using substitution
Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

Therefore the Final Solution is

x = 1 and y = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

x=y                ...............Equation ( 1 )

x+2y=3         ................Equation ( 2 )

To Find:

x = ?

y = ?

Solution:

Equating Equation  ( 1 ) in Equation ( 2 ) we get

y+2y=3\\\\3y=3\\\\y=\frac{3}{3} \\\\\therefore y =1

Now Substituting y = 1 in Equation ( 1 ) we get

x =1\\\\\therefore x=1

Therefore the Final Solution is

x = 1 and y = 1

The n candidates for a job have been ranked 1, 2, 3,…, n. Let X 5 the rank of a randomly selected candidate, so that X has pmf p
Anon25 [30]

Answer:

A. E(x) = 1/n×n(n+1)/2

B. E(x²) = 1/n

Step-by-step explanation:

The n candidates for a job have been ranked 1,2,3....n. Let x be the rank of a randomly selected candidate. Therefore, the PMF of X is given as

P(x) = {1/n, x = 1,2...n}

Therefore,

Expectation of X

E(x) = summation {xP(×)}

= summation {X×1/n}

= 1/n summation{x}

= 1/n×n(n+1)/2

= n+1/2

Thus, E(x) = 1/n×n(n+1)/2

Value of E(x²)

E(x²) = summation {x²P(×)}

= summation{x²×1/n}

= 1/n
