Answer:

The mean and the standard deviation of the number of students with laptops are 1.11 and 0.836 respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let <em>X</em> = number of students who have laptops.

The probability of a student having a laptop is, P (X) = <em>p</em> = 0.37.

A random sample of <em>n</em> = 30 students is selected.

The event of a student having a laptop is independent of the other students.

The random variable <em>X</em> follows a Binomial distribution with parameters <em>n</em> and <em>p</em>.

The mean and standard deviation of a binomial random variable <em>X</em> are:

\mu=np\\\sigma=\sqrt{np(1-p)}

Compute the mean of the random variable <em>X</em> as follows:

\mu=np=30\times0.37=1.11

The mean of the random variable <em>X</em> is 1.11.

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

\sigma=\sqrt{np(1-p)}=\sqrt{30\times0.37\times(1-0.37)}=\sqrt{0.6993}=0.836

The standard deviation of the random variable <em>X</em> is 0.836.

What is the relationship among direct variation,lines,rates of change, and slope?
JulsSmile [24]
A direct variation is a proportional equation. Such as:

For every 3 cookies, linda gets 1 glass of milk. The equation for this is y=3x where y is the glasses and x is the cookies. this is a direct variation. It also has a linear line. Linear means straight. Rate of change and slope are the exact same thing. They are the value of 'm' in y=mx+b

I suck at math can someone help please??
Zielflug [23.3K]
6/7 × 4 would be the correct answer. This is because 6/7 × 4= 3 3/7 which is equal to 4/7 × 6= 3 3/7. No other expression would equal 4/7 × 6
