According to an almanac, 60% of adult smokers started smoking before turning 18 years old. (a) compute the mean and standard

larisa [96]

The given problem describes a binomial distribution with p = 60% = 0.6. Given that there are 400 trials, i.e. n = 400.

a.) The mean is given by:

$\mu=np=400\times0.6=240$

The standard deviation is given by:

$\sigma=\sqrt{npq} \\ \\ =\sqrt{np(1-p)} \\ \\ =\sqrt{400(0.6)(0.4)} \\ \\ =\sqrt{96}=9.80$

b.) The mean means that in an experiment of 400 adult smokers, we expect on the average to get about 240 smokers who started smoking before turning 18 years.

c.) It would be unusual to observe <span>340 smokers who started smoking before turning 18 years old in a random sample of 400 adult smokers because 340 is far greater than the mean of the distribution.
340 is greater than 3 standard deviations from the mean of the distribution.</span>

T he equation for a parabola with directrix y = –p and focus (0, p) is:

zhuklara [117]

The equation for a parabola with directrix y = –p and focus (0, p)

The distance between vertex and directrix is P

Also the distance between vertex and focus is also P

Focus (0,p) so focus lies on y axis

Directrix line is paralled to focus point

So Directex crosses the x axis .

Hence line of symmetry lies is the y-axis.

The graph is attached below.

Esteban has a big jar of change in his room. He has 600 coins total, and 240

elixir [45]

You can set up a proportion to solve for the percentage of the coins that are pennies. Of course, there are alternate methods as well, but this is one method. First, you define the percentage of the coins that are pennies to be equal to a variable, such as x. Next, you write 240/600 = x/100, due to how "x" is the amount out of 100 (since per cent is for every cent (out of 100)), and 240 would correspond to x while 600 would correspond to 100. This proportion may also be written as 100/x = 600/240, or 240/x = 600/100. In order to solve for x, you use cross-products, or you multiply each denominator by the numerator of the other fraction. You will be left with a numerical value that's equal to a number times x, and then you divide both sides of the equation by the coefficient of x in order to isolate x. As a result, you will have the percentage of the coins that are pennies to be your answer. Remember to write the units for every numerator and denominator in your proportion.

I need 50 gallons of milk replacer for calves and the powder mixture says it's 6.25 oz for 5 gallons how many oz of powder do I

zubka84 [21]

Answer:

62.5 oz

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the ratio proportion method:

x:50::6.25:5

x = (50x6.25)/5

OR a more simple method is to do this:

5 gallons of milk require 6.25 oz. How many oz of powder do I need to get 10x that amount? Since 50 is 10x5, you do the same thing for 6.25, and get 62.5
