Answer:

(i) It is known that the sum of probabilities of a probability distribution of random variables is one.

∴0+k+2k+3k+k

+k)=1

⇒10k

+9k−1=0

⇒(10k−1)(k+1)=0

⇒k=−1,

k=−1 is not possible as the probability of an event is never negative.

∴k=

(ii) P(X<3)=P(X=0)+P(X=1)+P(X=2)

=0+k+2k

=3k

A 15-m2 wooded area has the following: 30 ferns, 150 grass plants, and 6 oak trees. What is the population density per m2 of eac
swat32

Answer:

See the procedure

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

To find the population density per m² of each of the above species, divide the amount of each species by the total area

so

<em>Ferns</em>

\frac{30}{15}=2\frac{ferns}{m^{2}}

<em>Grass plants</em>

\frac{150}{15}=10\frac{grass\ plants}{m^{2}}

<em>Oaks Trees</em>

\frac{6}{15}=0.4\frac{oaks\ trees}{m^{2}}
