Round 70.74 to 2 significant figures

Mathematics
1 answer:
DiKsa [7]2 years ago
8 0
The answer is 71 since you count from the tenth space. So the first significant figure would be 7 and the second significant figure would be 0. As we know that we round up one number of the previous number is 5 or bigger.

Consider a binomial experiment with n = 10 and p = 0.10. (a) Compute f(0). If required, round your answer to four decimal places
ss7ja [257]

Answer:

(a) The value of f (0) is 0.3487.

(b) The value of f (2) is 0.1937.

(c) The value of P (X ≤ 2) is 0.9298.

(d) The value of P (X ≥ 1) is 0.6513.

(e) The value of E (X) is 1.

(f) The value of V (X) is 0.9 and <em>σ</em> is 0.9487.

Step-by-step explanation:

The random variable <em>X</em> follows a Binomial distribution with parameter <em>n</em> = 10 and <em>p</em> = 0.10.

The probability mass function of <em>X</em> is:

P(X=x)={10\choose x}0.10^{x}(1-0.10)^{10-x};\ x=0,1,2,3...

(a)

Compute the value of <em>f</em> (0) as follows:

f (0) = P (X = 0)

       ={10\choose 0}0.10^{0}(1-0.10)^{10-0}\\=1\times 1\times 0.348678\\=0.348678\\\approx0.3487

Thus, the value of f (0) is 0.3487.

(b)

Compute the value of <em>f</em> (2) as follows:

f (2) = P (X = 2)

       ={10\choose 2}0.10^{2}(1-0.10)^{10-2}\\=45\times 0.01\times 0.43047\\=0.1937115\\\approx0.1937

Thus, the value of f (2) is 0.1937.

(c)

Compute the value of P (X ≤ 2) as follows:

P (X ≤ 2) = P (X = 0) + P (X = 1) + P (X = 2)

              =\sum\limits^{0}_{2} {{10\choose x}0.10^{x}(1-0.10)^{10-x}}\\=0.3487+0.3874+0.1937\\=0.9298

Thus, the value of P (X ≤ 2) is 0.9298.

(d)

Compute the value of P (X ≥ 1) as follows:

P (X ≥ 1) = 1 - P (X < 1)

             = 1 - P (X = 0)

             = 1 - 0.3487

             = 0.6513

Thus, the value of P (X ≥ 1) is 0.6513.

(e)

Compute the expected value of <em>X</em> as follows:

E(X)=n\times p

         =10\times 0.10\\=1

Thus, the value of E (X) is 1.

(f)

Compute the variance of <em>X</em> as follows:

V(X)=np(1-p)

         =10\times 0.10\times (1-0.10)\\=0.90

Compute the standard deviation of <em>X</em> as follows:

SD(X)=\sqrt{V(X)}

           =\sqrt{0.90}\\=0.94868\\\approx0.9487

Thus, the value of V (X) is 0.9 and <em>σ</em> is 0.9487.

You roll two fair dice, one green and one red. (a) Are the outcomes on the dice independent? Yes No (b) Find P(1 on green die an
ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

a

  Yes

b

 P(1 \& 5) = \frac{1}{36}

c

 P(5 \& 1) = \frac{1}{36}

d

 P(5 \& 1 | 1\& 5  ) = \frac{1}{18}

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

     Two fair dice, one green and one red were rolled

Generally the  outcomes on the dice independent because the outcome on the first dice is not affected by the second die

Generally the  probability of getting a 1  on a dice rolled is  P(1) =  \frac{1}{6}

the  probability of getting a 5 on a dice rolled is  P(5) =  \frac{1}{6}

Generally the probability of P(1 on green die and 5 on red die) is mathematically represented as

         P(1 \& 5) = \frac{1}{6}  *\frac{1}{6}

         P(1 \& 5) = \frac{1}{36}

Generally the probability of P(5 on green die and 1 on red die) is mathematically represented as

          P(5 \& 1) = \frac{1}{6}  *\frac{1}{6}

         P(5 \& 1) = \frac{1}{36}

Generally the probability of P((1 on green die and 5 on red die) or (5 on green die and 1 on red die)) is mathematically represented as

          P(5 \& 1 | 1\& 5  ) = \frac{1}{36} + \frac{1}{36}

         P(5 \& 1 | 1\& 5  ) = \frac{1}{18}

How do find the rate of change
Anna007 [38]
Find the slope of the line using the equation (y1-y2)/(x1-x2), which is change in rise over change in run. use any two points, for example (2,-2) and (3,-1). using the formula, (-2-(-1))/(2-3) is the rate of change, giving you -1/-1 as the slope, which is -1. the rate of change is -1.
