Answer:
a)3145 x 0.01 = 31.45 3145- 31.45 = 3113.55
Compute the sample correlation 3113.55 -? we find the least square pressing at least 15x on the calculator then minus this from 3113.55 to find a better fit and minimum regression.
We add the differences of units then divide by distribution as seen below.
b) unsure.
c) = (see below) just test each number shown unit sold per day / price then x can show the differences in each number from day 1 to day 2.
d) = 16 sold.
Step-by-step explanation:
a) We count the units up and deduct from it from the equation p is recognized as units sold. R1 is cost R2 is total days.
b) The line of best fit is described by the equation ŷ = bX + a, where b is the slope of the line and a is the intercept (i.e., the value of Y when X = 0).
c) r 2= decimal ; the regression equation has accounted for percentage of the total sum of squares. You cna do this one.
d) = 16 sold at $28 each. - Why ? We using 7 day data and prove a how many units can be sold p/d if the price of flash drive is set to $28 each per unit.
Day 1 = 34 / 28 = 1 = 1.21428571429 = 1 no difference day prior.
Day 2 = 336 / 28 = 12 = 12 = difference day prior is 11
Day 3 = 432 / 28 = 15 = 15.4285714286 = 15 difference day prior is 3
Day 4 = 635 / 28 = 23 = 22.6785714286 = 23 difference day prior is 8
Day 5 = 530 / 28 = 19 = 18.9285714286 = 19 difference day prior is minus - 4
Day 6 = 938 / 28 = 34 = 33.5 = 34 difference day prior is 15
Day 7 = 240 / 28 = 9 = 8.57142857143 = 9 difference day prior is minus -25
Total days 7 = Total revenue / price = average units sold
Average units sold total = 1+ 12+15 +23 +19+34+9 = 113 rounded.
Average units sold total = 1.21428571429 + 12 + 15.4285714286
+ 22.6785714286
+18.9285714286
+ 33.5
+ 8.57142857143 = 112.321428572 units sold weekly when priced at $28
To answer D we divide this by 7 to show;
112.321428572/ 7 = 16.0459183674
Daily units sold = 16

Here's a graph of a linear function. Write the
equation that describes that function.
Express it in slope-intercept form.
PLEASE HELP
Answer: [tex]y=\frac{3}{2} x - 3[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Looking at the graph we could locate the y intercept at point (0,-3) and we can locate another point (4,3) which also passes through the line. So using these coordinates we already know the the y-intercept as -3 but we need to find the slope to write it in slope intercept form.
To find the slope, we will need to find the difference in the y values and divide it by the difference in the x values.
(0,-3)
(4,3)
-3 - 3 = -6
0-4 = -4
-6 /-4 = 3/2 so now we know that the slope is 3 over 2
so we could write the equation as y = 3/2x -3

Activity trackers are electronic devices that people wear to record physical activity. Researchers wanted to estimate the mean number of steps taken on a typical workday for people working in New York City who wear such trackers. A random sample of 61 people working in New York City who wear an activity tracker was selected. The number of steps taken on a typical workday for each person in the sample was recorded. The mean was 9,797 steps and the standard deviation was 2,313 steps.
a. Construct and interpret a 99 percent confidence interval for the mean number of steps taken on a typical workday for all people working in New York City who wear an activity tracker.
b. A wellness director at a company in New York City wants to investigate whether it is unusual for one person working in the city who wears an activity tracker to record approximately 8,500 steps on a typical workday. Is it appropriate to use the confidence interval found in part (a) to conduct the investigation.
Answer:
a) The 99% confidence interval for the mean number of steps taken on a typical workday for all people working in New York City who wear an activity tracker is (9,009, 10,585).
We are 95% confident that the mean number of steps taken on a typical workday for all people working in New York City who wear an activity tracker is within 9,009 and 10,585 steps.
b) No, we can not use the confidence interval to estimate the probability of individual values. It can onlybe used to make inference about the population mean.
Step-by-step explanation:
a) We have to calculate a 99% confidence interval for the mean.
The population standard deviation is not known, so we have to estimate it from the sample standard deviation and use a t-students distribution to calculate the critical value.
The sample mean is M=9,797.
Ths sample standard deviation is s=2,313.
The sample size is N=61.
When σ is not known, s divided by the square root of N is used as an estimate of σM:
[tex]s_M=\dfrac{s}{\sqrt{N}}=\dfrac{2313}{\sqrt{61}}=\dfrac{2313}{7.81}=296.15[/tex]
The degrees of freedom for this sample size are:
[tex]df=n-1=61-1=60[/tex]
The t-value for a 99% confidence interval and 61 degrees of freedom is t=2.66.
The margin of error (MOE) can be calculated as:
[tex]MOE=t\cdot s_M=2.66 \cdot 296.15=787.84[/tex]
Then, the lower and upper bounds of the confidence interval are:
[tex]LL=M-t \cdot s_M = 9797-787.84=9009\\\\UL=M+t \cdot s_M = 9797+787.84=10585[/tex]
The 99% confidence interval for the mean number of steps taken on a typical workday for all people working in New York City who wear an activity tracker is (9,009, 10,585).
b) The value of 8,500 steps is outside the confidence interval, but this means that it is an unusual value for the mean number of steps for all people in New York City who wear an activity tracker.
We can not use the confidence interval to estimate the probability of individual values.
The activity tracking devices.
The activity tracker re those devices such as watches and a bands that tells you about your physical activity such as skipping, running, and walking. They simply count the steps and tell you about the daily goals and targets. They are quite effective for monitoring blood pressure and more.
Thus answer is 9,009, 10,585 workers, 9,009, and 10,585 steps and population mean.
As per the question, the smart trackers are used by the new york people on a daily basis and they measure the footsteps of the people. A sample of random 61 people was taken and selected on the basis of the tracers. It was found that with these statistical tests a 99% confidence interval was taken for the mean on a typical workday for all people working in City that is 9,009, 10,585. The 95% confidence that the mean number of steps taken by workers of the City was within 9,009 and 10,585 steps.The confidence interval can be used to estimate the probability of the individual values. It can be used for drawing inferences for the population mean.Learn more about the trackers are electronic.

A horizontal line contains points A, C, B. 2 lines extend from point C. A line extends to point E and another line extends to point D. An arc represents angle A C D.
Ray CE is the angle bisector of AngleACD. Which statement about the figure must be true?
mAngleECD = One-halfmAngleECB
mAngleACE = one-halfmAngleACD
AngleACE Is-congruent-to AngleDCB
AngleECDIs-congruent-to AngleACD
Answer:
Option (2).
Step-by-step explanation:
In the figure attached,
A, C and B are the points lying on a straight line.
2 lines EC and DC have been drawn by extending the lines from C to E and D respectively.
Ray CE is the angle bisector of ∠ACD.
That means CE divides ∠ACD in two equal parts.
m∠ACE = m∠DCE
Since m∠ACD = m∠ACE + m∠DCE
= 2(m∠ACE)
m∠ACE = [tex]\frac{1}{2}(\angle ACD)[/tex]
Therefore, option (2) will be the answer.

1. If the ratio of the ages of Kissi and Esinam is 3:5 and that of Esinam and Lariba is 3:5 and
the sum of the ages of all 3 is 147 years, what is the age difference between oldest the
youngest?
Ans: years
2. The HCF of two numbers is 11, and their L.C.M is 368. If one number is 64, then the other
number is ….
Answer:
1) 48 years.
2) Question incorrect.
11 isn't a factor of 64, and 368 isn't a multiple of 64. 11 also isn't a factor of 368, hence, it would be impossible to find the unknown second number with all of these false information in the question.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the ages of Kissi, Esinam and Lariba be x, y and z respectively.
Ratio of the ages of Kissi and Esinam is 3:5
x:y = 3:5
(x/y) = (3/5)
5x = 3y
x = (3y/5) (eqn 1)
Ratio of the ages of Esinam and Lariba is 3:5
y:z = 3:5
(y/z) = (3/5)
5y = 3z
z = (5y/3) (eqn 2)
The sum of their 3 ages is 147
x + y + z = 147 (eqn 3)
Substituting the values of x and z from eqn 1 and 2 into eqn 3, we have
(3y/5) + y + (5y/3) = 147
(49y/15) = 147
y = (147×15/49) = 45.
x = (3y/5) = (3×45/5) = 27
z = (5y/3) = (5×45/3) = 75
The ages of Kissi, Esinam and Lariba are then 27, 45 and 75 respectively.
The difference in the ages of the oldest amf the youngest is thus, 75 - 27 = 48 years.
2) This question seems to be faulty and incorrect as 11 isn't a factor of 64, and 368 isn't a multiple of 64. 11 also isn't a factor of 368, hence, it would be impossible to find the unknown second number with all of these false information in the question.

Write an equation of a line that contains the following two points in slope intercept form
(-2,4) (3,-1)
Answer:
y = -x + 2
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope intercept form equation of this line can be written like this :
y = my + p ; where m is the slope and p is the y intercept.
[tex]m = \frac{-1-4}{3-(-2)} = \frac{-5}{5} =-1[/tex]
then the equation becomes y = -x + p
(-2,4) is a point of the line means 4 = -(-2) + p
then p = 4 - 2 = 2
finally, y = -x + 2
The lengths of pregnancies in a small rural village are normally distributed with a mean of 267 days and a standard deviation of 15 days. A distribution of values is normal with a mean of 267 and a standard deviation of 15. What percentage of pregnancies last beyond 246 days? P(X > 246 days) =
Answer:
91.92% of pregnancies last beyond 246 days
Step-by-step explanation:
When the distribution is normal, we use the z-score formula.
In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the zscore of a measure X is given by:
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
In this question, we have that:
[tex]\mu = 267, \sigma = 15[/tex]
What percentage of pregnancies last beyond 246 days?
We have to find 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 246. So
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{246 - 267}{15}[/tex]
[tex]Z = -1.4[/tex]
[tex]Z = -1.4[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.0808
1 - 0.0808 = 0.9192
91.92% of pregnancies last beyond 246 days

Step-by-step explanation:
A researcher recruited 55 adults and tested their ability to remember a list of words. For each participant, the researcher counted the number of words correctly recalled and recorded their age (in years).
HYPOTHESIS
The research hypothesis is that age is related to memory performance.
This hypothesis is:__________.
a. directional
b. non-directional
Answer:
b. non-directional
Step-by-step explanation:
A directional hypothesis can be described as a hypothesis which predicts the direction of impact, either positive or negative, of one variable, especially independent variable, on the other variable which is known as an independent variable. For example, the hypothesis "age reduces memory performance" is a directional hypothesis. The reason is that "reduces" show the direction that age has a negative effect on memory performance.
On the other hand, non-directional hypothesis can be described as a hypothesis that does not predict the direction of impact but only states the relationship between two variables. For example, the research hypothesis is in the question that "age is related to memory performance" is non-directional hypothesis. This because the word "related" in the hypothesis only indicate that there is a relationship between the two variables, not the direction of effect of one variable on the other.
Excell Computers promptly shipped two servers to its biggest client. The company profits RM5,000 on each one of these big systems. The shipping worker randomly selected the system without replacement that were delivered from 15 computers in stock. The system contain 4 refurbished computer, with 11 new computers in the warehouse.
If the client gets two new computers, Excell earns RM10,000 profit. If the client gets a refurbished computer, it’s coming back for replacement and Excell must pay the RM400 shipping fee, with leaves RM9,600 profit. If both computers shipped are refurbished, consequently the client will return both and cancel the order. As a result, Excell will be out any profit and left with RM8,000 in shipping cost. Let X be a random variable for the amount of the profit earned on the order.
Answer:
$9215.24
Step-by-step explanation:
Total Number of Computers=15
Number of New=11
Number of Refurbished Computers=4
P(New)=11/15P(Refurbished)=4/15[tex]P(NN)=\frac{11}{15} \times \frac{10}{14} = \frac{11}{21}\\P(NR)=\frac{11}{15} \times \frac{4}{14} = \frac{22}{105}\\P(RN)=\frac{4}{15} \times \frac{11}{14} = \frac{22}{105}\\P(RR)=\frac{4}{15} \times \frac{3}{14} = \frac{2}{35}[/tex]
The probability of one new and one refurbished =P(NR)+P(RN)
[tex]=\frac{22}{105}+ \frac{22}{105}\\=\frac{44}{105}[/tex]
Let X be the amount of profit earned on the purchase. The probability distribution of X is given as:
[tex]\left|\begin{array}{c|c|c|c|c}$Profit(X)& NN=\$10000 &NR=\$9600& RR=-\$800\\$P(X)&\dfrac{11}{21}&\dfrac{44}{105}&\dfrac{2}{35}\end{array}\right|[/tex]
(b) Expected Profit
[tex]\text{Expected Profit}=\sum X_iP(X_i)\\=(10000 \times \dfrac{11}{21}) +(9600 \times \dfrac{44}{105}) + (-800 \times \dfrac{2}{35})\\=\$9215.24[/tex]
The average profit of the store on the order is $9215.24.

Answer:
see below
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the x intercept set y =0 and solve for x
6x+5y = -30
6x = -30
Divide by 6
x = -30/6 = -5
The x intercept is (-5,0)
To find the y intercept set x =0 and solve for y
6x+5y = -30
5y = -30
Divide by 5
y = -30/5 = -6
The y intercept is (0,-6)
To find the x-intercept set y =0. Solve for x.
6x+5y=-30
6x+5(0)=-30
6x+0=-30
6x=-30
x=-30/6
x=-5
The x-intercept is at (-5, 0)
To find the y-intercept set x =0. Solve for y.
6x+5y=-30
6(0)+5y=-30
0+5y=-30
5y=-30
y=-30/5
y=-6
The y-intercept is at (0, -6)
A fair spinner has 11 equal sections: 3 red, 4 blue and 4 green. It is spun twice. What is the probability of getting the same colour twice?
Answer:
The probability of getting the same colour twice is approximately 34%.
Step-by-step explanation:
The probability of getting each color is:
P(x=red) = 3/11 P(x=blue) = 4/11P(x=green) = 4/11Then, we can calculate the probability of getting the color red twice as:
[tex]P(x_1=R;x_2=R)=P(x=R)^2=(3/11)^2=9/121[/tex]
We have to repeat this for the color blue and green:
[tex]P(x_1=B;x_2=B)=P(x=B)^2=(4/11)^2=16/121\\\\P(x_1=G;x_2=G)=P(x=G)^2=(4/11)^2=16/121[/tex]
Then, the probability of getting the same color twice in two spins can be calculated as:
[tex]P=P(x_1=R;x_2=R)+P(x_1=B;x_2=B)+P(x_1=G;x_2=G)=\\\\P=9/121+16/121+16/121\\\\P=41/121\approx0.34[/tex]

At LaGuardia Airport for a certain nightly flight, the probability that it will rain is
0.18 and the probability that the flight will be delayed is 0.14. The probability that it
will not rain and the flight will leave on time is 0.74. What is the probability that the
flight would leave on time when it is not raining? Round your answer to the thousand
Answer:
0.902 = 90.2% probability that the flight would leave on time when it is not raining
Step-by-step explanation:
We use the conditional probability formula to solve this question. It is
[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}[/tex]
In which
P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.
[tex]P(A \cap B)[/tex] is the probability of both A and B happening.
P(A) is the probability of A happening.
In this question:
Event A: Not raining
Event B: Flight leaving on time.
The probability that it will rain is 0.18.
This means that there is a 1 - 0.18 = 0.82 probability of not raining. So [tex]P(A) = 0.82[/tex]
The probability that it will not rain and the flight will leave on time is 0.74.
This means that [tex]P(A \cap B) = 0.74[/tex]
What is the probability that the flight would leave on time when it is not raining?
[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{0.74}{0.82} = 0.902[/tex]
0.902 = 90.2% probability that the flight would leave on time when it is not raining
The first digit in any number must be 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9 because we do not write numbers such as 15 as 015. While it is reasonable to think that for most real-life data each digit occurs with equal frequency so that each digit 1, 2, ..., 9 has probability 1/9 of being the first digit, this is not true. It is a surprising phenomenon that in many naturally occurring numbers and web-based data the first digit has a probability distribution known as Benford's law.
Benford's law, also called the first-digit law, states that in lists of numbers from many (but not all) real-life sources of data, the leading digit is distributed in a specific, non-uniform way.
Specifically, for d = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, Benford's law states P(first digit is d) = log_10(1+(1/d)) . The distribution of the first digit according to Benford's law, calculated to 3 decimal places, is shown in the table below.
Benford's law
First Digit X 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
Probability .301 .176 .125 .097 .079 .067 .058 .051 .046
Benford's Law and the Equally Likely Model benford equally likely
The law is named after physicist Frank Benford, who stated it in 1938, although it had been previously stated by Simon Newcomb in 1881. A surprising variety of data from the natural sciences, social affairs, and business obeys Benford's law.
This result has been found to apply to a wide variety of data sets, including electricity bills, street addresses, stock prices, population numbers, death rates, lengths of rivers, physical and mathematical constants, and processes described by power laws (which are very common in nature).
Numbers that are assigned, such as social security numbers and zip codes, or data with a fixed maximum, such as deductible contributions to individual retirement accounts, or randomly generated numbers, do not follow Benford's law.
The figure below shows how the distribution of the first digit of various naturally occurring and web-based data compares with Benford's law.

A box is with a square base and open top is to be constructed and a total volume of 720 cubic inches is required. The cost of material for the base is 8 dollars per square inch and the cost of material for the sides is 6 dollars per square inch. Express the total cost of the box as a function of the length of the base.
Answer:
total cost = 8x^2 +17280/x
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the base length. Then the area of the base is x^2, and the height is h = 720/x^2.
The area of the four sides is ...
(4x)(h) = (4x)(720/x^2) = 2880/x
The cost of the base is ...
base cost = 8x^2
And the cost of the sides is ...
side cost = 6(2880)/x = 17280/x
The total cost of the box is ...

Comment on the cost function
You will find this function has a minimum at x=∛1080 ≈ 10.260 in. The total cost is about $2526.35, and the box is 2/3 times as tall as wide. That aspect ratio makes any pair of opposite sides cost the same as the base, the generic solution to a cost optimization problem of this sort.
A high school track is shaped as a rectangle with a half circle on either side.Jake plans on running four laps. How many meters will Jake run? Use 3.14 for Pi.
Answer:
if you go around a track one time thats 400 meters but if you go around 4 times thats 1600 meters, you dont need to use 3.14 pi for this " no offense", i do track and field myself and i do the short distance, which is 100 meters and 200 meter but for for long distance runners they go around the track 4- 8 times so it is 1600 meters is ur answer. and when u go around 8 times, thats 3200 meters.
Step-by-step explanation:
Use z scores to compare the given values. The tallest living man at one time had a height of 252 cm. The shortest living man at that time had a height of 79.2 cm. Heights of men at that time had a mean of 176.74 cm and a standard deviation of 8.06 cm. Which of these two men had the height that was moreâ extreme?
Answer:
The more extreme height was the case for the shortest living man at that time (12.1017 standard deviation units below the population's mean) compare with the tallest living man (at that time) that was 9.3374 standard deviation units above the population's mean.
Step-by-step explanation:
To answer this question, we need to use standardized values, and we can obtain them using the formula:
[tex] \\ z = \frac{x - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex] [1]
Where
x is the raw score we want to standardize.[tex] \\ \mu[/tex] is the population's mean.[tex] \\ \sigma[/tex] is the population standard deviation.A z-score "tells us" the distance from [tex] \\ \mu[/tex] in standard deviation units, and a positive value indicates that the raw score is above the mean and a negative that the raw score is below the mean.
In a normal distribution, the more extreme values are those with bigger z-scores, above and below the mean. We also need to remember that the normal distribution is symmetrical.
Heights of men at that time had:
[tex] \\ \mu = 176.74[/tex] cm.[tex] \\ \sigma = 8.06[/tex] cmLet us see the z-score for each case:
Case 1: The tallest living man at that time
The tallest man had a height of 252 cm.
Using [1], we have (without using units):
[tex] \\ z = \frac{x - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex] \\ z = \frac{252 - 176.74}{8.06}[/tex]
[tex] \\ z = \frac{75.26}{8.06}[/tex]
[tex] \\ z = 9.3374[/tex]
That is, the tallest living man was 9.3374 standard deviation units above the population's mean.
Case 2: The shortest living man at that time
The shortest man had a height of 79.2 cm.
Following the same procedure as before, we have:
[tex] \\ z = \frac{x - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex] \\ z = \frac{79.2 - 176.74}{8.06}[/tex]
[tex] \\ z = \frac{-97.54}{8.06}[/tex]
[tex] \\ z = -12.1017[/tex]
That is, the shortest living man was 12.1017 standard deviation units below the population's mean (because of the negative value for the standardized value.)
The normal distribution is symmetrical (as we previously told). The height for the shortest man was at the other extreme of the normal distribution in [tex] \\ 12.1017 - 9.3374 = 2.7643[/tex] standard deviation units more than the tallest man.
Then, the more extreme height was the case for the shortest living man (12.1017 standard deviation units below the population's mean) compare with the tallest man that was 9.3374 standard deviation units above the population's mean.
A statistician calculates that 9% of Americans are vegetarians. If the statistician is correct, what is the probability that the proportion of vegetarians in a sample of 471 Americans would be greater than 8%
Answer:
The probability that the proportion of vegetarians in a sample of 471 Americans would be greater than 8% is P=0.776.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have to calculate a probability that a sample of n=471 has a proportion greater than 8%, given that the population proportion is 9%.
First, we have to calculate the parameters of the sampling distribution of the proportions:
[tex]\hat{p}=p=0.09\\\\\\\sigma_{\hat{p}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{0.09\cdot 0.91}{471}}=0.0132[/tex]
Now, we can calculate the probability using the z-score:
[tex]z=\dfrac{p-\hat{p}}{\sigma_{\hat{p}}}=\dfrac{0.08-0.09}{0.0132}=\dfrac{-0.01}{0.0132}=-0.7576[/tex]
Then, the probability is:
[tex]P(p>0.08)=P(z>-0.7576)=0.776[/tex]
how do you add 9 1/6 + 2 1/12
Answer:
11 1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
first make the fractions equal. So 9 1/6 would be 9 2/12 so that we canadd them together.
9 2/12 + 2 1/12 = 11 3/12
but u can simplify the answer so itll be 11 1/4
[tex]answer = 11 \ \frac{3}{12} \\ solution \\ 9 \ \frac{1}{6} + 2 \ \frac{1}{12} \\ = \frac{55}{6} + \frac{25}{12} \\ = \frac{55 \times 2 + 25}{12} \\ = \frac{110 + 25}{12} \\ = \frac{135}{12} \\ = 11 \ \ \frac{3}{12} \\ hope \: it \: helps[/tex]
X and Y are both standard normal random variables (mean = 0, standard deviation = 1), statistically independent of each other. Using the DATA IN THE ATTACHED FILE, estimate the probability that X and Y are both positive and that their sum is less or equal to 1. This probability is
Answer:
The probability that X and Y are both positive and that their sum is less or equal to 1 0.64.
Step-by-step explanation:
It is provided that the random variables X and Y follows a standard normal distribution.
That is, [tex]X,Y\sim N(0, 1)[/tex]
It is also provided that the variables X and Y are statistically independent of each other.
Compute the probability that X and Y are both positive and that their sum is less or equal to 1 as follows:
The mean and standard deviation of X + Y are:
[tex]E(X+Y)=E(X)+E(Y)=0+0=0\\\\SD(X+Y)=\sqrt{V(X)+V(Y)+2Cov(X,Y)}=\sqrt{1+1+0}=\sqrt{2}[/tex]
The probability is:
[tex]P(X+Y\leq 1)=P(X+Y<1-0.50)\ [\text{Apply continuity correction}]\\[/tex]
[tex]=P(X+Y<0.50)\\\\=P(\frac{(X+Y)-E(X+Y)}{SD(X+Y)}<\frac{0.50-0}{\sqrt{2}})\\\\=P(Z<0.354)\\\\=0.63683\\\\\approx 0.64[/tex]
*Use the z-table.
Thus, the probability that X and Y are both positive and that their sum is less or equal to 1 0.64.
What is the answer to this question–1 × –5?
Answer:
5
Step-by-step explanation:
a minus times by another minus makes a positive, so it is basically 1 x 5
Answer:
5
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the you are multiplying 2 minuses together they will cancel each other out to form a positive number. However if you have an example like this
-6 × 7
Then the answer will be -42 because there is only one negative
