2. In a given population of two-earner male-female couples, male earnings have a mean of $40,000 per year and a standard deviati

Kobotan [32]

Answer: $85,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : In a given population of two-earner male-female couples, male earnings have a mean of $40,000 per year and a standard deviation of $12,000.

$\mu_M=40,000\ \ ;\sigma_M=12,000$

Female earnings have a mean of $45,000 per year and a standard deviation of $18,000.

$\mu_F=45,000\ \ ;\sigma_F=18,000$

If C denote the combined earnings for a randomly selected couple.

Then, the mean of C will be :-

$\mu_c=\mu_M+\mu_F\\\\=40,000+45,000=85,000$

Hence, the mean of C = $85,000

4 - 5/2 * (1/10x) = 1 what is the value of x

Inga [223]

$4 - 5 / 2 * (1/10x) = 1\\$

The first step is to identify the order in which the equation must be solved, by following PEMDAS (you might know it as BEDMAS):

Parenthesis (or Brackets)

Exponents

Multiplication and Division

Addition and Subtraction

My advice would be to add parenthesis, following these rules, if you are not very good at finding them immediately by sight.

So:

$4 - 5 / 2 * (\frac{1}{10x}) = 1\\\\4 - [(5/2)*(\frac{1}{10x})]=1\\\\4-(2.5*\frac{1}{10x})=1\\\\4-\frac{2.5}{10x}-1=0\\3-\frac{x}{4}=0\\\frac{x}{4}=3\\x=3*4\\x=12$

We check our answer:

$x=12\\4 - [(5 / 2) * (1/10)*(x)] = 1\\4 - [(5 / 2) * (\frac{1}{10}) * (12))] = 1\\4 - [2.5 * (\frac{1}{10})*12] = 1\\4 - [(\frac{2.5}{10})*12] = 1\\4 - [(\frac{1}{4})*12] = 1\\4 - 3 = 1\\1=1$
