The standard deviation of the number of green M&M's in a sample of 5 is 0.91

Standard deviation is a measure of the amount of variation or dispersion of a set of data values. It is calculated by finding the square root of the variance, which is the average of the squared differences from the mean.

To solve this problem, we can use the binomial probability formula:

[tex]P(X=k) = C(n,k) * p^k * (1-p)^{(n-k)[/tex]

where:

X is the number of green M&M's in the sample

k is the number of green M&M's we are interested in (3 or 4 or at most 3 or at least 3)

n is the sample size (5)

p is the probability of getting a green M&M in one trial

We can use the given percentages to calculate the probability of getting a green M&M:

p = 0.15

Now we can calculate the probabilities for the different scenarios:

Probability that exactly three of the five M&M's are green:

[tex]P(X=3) = C(5,3) * 0.15^3 * 0.85^2 = 0.0883[/tex]

Probability that three or four of the five M&M's are green:

[tex]P(X=3\ or\ X=4) = P(X=3) + P(X=4) = C(5,3) * 0.15^3 * 0.85^2 + C(5,4) * 0.15^4 * 0.85^1 = 0.1527[/tex]

Probability that at most three of the five M&M's are green:

P(X≤3) = [tex]P(X=0) + P(X=1) + P(X=2) + P(X=3) = C(5,0) * 0.15^0 * 0.85^5 + C(5,1) * 0.15^1 * 0.85^4 + C(5,2) * 0.15^2 * 0.85^3 + C(5,3) * 0.15^3 * 0.85^2 = 0.9053[/tex]

Probability that at least three of the five M&M's are green:

P(X≥3) [tex]= P(X=3) + P(X=4) + P(X=5) = C(5,3) * 0.15^3 * 0.85^2 + C(5,4) * 0.15^4 * 0.85^1 + C(5,5) * 0.15^5 * 0.85^0 = 0.2413[/tex]

To find the expected number of green M&M's in a sample of size 5, we can use the formula:

E(X) = n * p

where E(X) is the expected value of X.

E(X) = 5 * 0.15 = 0.75

Therefore, on average we expect 0.75 green M&M's in a sample of 5.

To find the standard deviation, we can use the formula:

SD(X) = sqrt(n * p * (1-p))

SD(X) = sqrt(5 * 0.15 * 0.85) = 0.9138 (rounded to two decimal places)

Therefore, the standard deviation of the number of green M&M's in a sample of 5 is 0.91

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

The domain of a function refers to the set of all possible input values (independent variable) for which the function is defined. In this case, the graph has points (6,80) and (11,40), which means that the function is defined for the values of g (the independent variable) between 6 and 11. Therefore, the domain of the function is:

D. 6≤g≤11

The domain of the function in the given graph is 6≤h≤11, as it includes all possible values of h between and including 6 and 11 on the horizontal (h) axis. So the correct option is D.

The domain of a function refers to the set of all possible input values for the function. In the given graph, which is plotted on the h-g axis and includes points (6, 80) and (11, 40), we are interested in determining the valid range for the independent variable, h.

The lowest h-value on the graph is 6, corresponding to the point (6, 80), and the highest h-value is 11, corresponding to the point (11, 40). These are the boundaries that define the domain of the function. Any value of h that falls within this range is a valid input for the function, and any value outside this range is not represented on the graph.

Therefore, the domain of the function is 6≤h≤11, as it includes all values of h between and including 6 and 11. This range encompasses all possible inputs for this function as depicted in the graph.

In summary, the domain represents the valid input values, and in this case, it is limited to the interval from 6 to 11 on the h-axis.

The function graphed on the axis above should be expressed as a piecewise function as follows;

f(x) = x + 1       {x < -5}

     = 5x - 10   {x > 1}

In order to determine the piecewise function, we would determine an equation that represent each of line shown on the graph. Therefore, we would determine the slope of this line;

Slope (m) = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)

Slope (m) = (-7 + 4)/(-8 + 5)

Slope (m) = -3/-3

Slope (m) = 1.

At data point (-5, -4) and a slope of 1, a linear equation for this line can be calculated by using the point-slope form as follows:

y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

y + 4 = 1(x + 5)  

y = x + 1

1, -5 2 0

For the second line, we have:

Slope (m) = (0 + 5)/(2 - 1)

Slope (m) = 5/1

Slope (m) = 5.

At data point (2, 0) and a slope of 5, a linear equation for this line can be calculated by using the point-slope form as follows:

y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

y - 0 = 5(x - 2)

Okay, let's break this down step-by-step:

From the table, we know the x-values are 1, 3, 5, 7, and 9.

And the y-values are 4, 6, 8, ?, 12.

So at x=7, there is a missing y-value that we need to determine.

To find this, we need to look at the linear relationship between the points. Some clues:

1) There are 5 points total.

2) The x-values increase by 2 each time.

3) The y-values also seem to be increasing by 2 each time.

So the linear relationship is: y = mx + b (where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept)

In this case, the slope is 2 (because y increases by 2 for every increase of 1 in x).

And the y-intercept is 4 (because when x = 1, y = 4).

So the equation is: y = 2x + 4

Plugging in x = 7:

y = 2(7) + 4

y = 14 + 4

y = 18

Therefore, when x = 7, the second coordinate in the scatterplot is 18.

   Probability of selecting a gold marble: 3/34

   Probability of selecting a silver marble: 8/34

   Probability of selecting a black marble: 23/34

Now, let's calculate the expected value of playing the game:

E(x) = (3/34) * $3 + (8/34) * $2 + (23/34) * (-$1)

E(x) = $0.26

So the expected value of playing this game is $0.26. This means that over many plays of the game, we would expect to win an average of $0.26 per play.

To fill in the table, we start with the total number of students, which is 240.

We know that 35% of students are interested in athletics, so we can find the number of students interested in athletics as:

0.35 x 240 = 84

Similarly, we know that 3/5 of students are interested in academic clubs, so we can find the number of students interested in academic clubs as:

(3/5) x 240 = 144

We also know that 26 students are interested in both athletics and academic clubs, so we can fill in that cell as 26.

To fill in the remaining cells, we can use the fact that the row and column totals must add up correctly. For example, in the "Interested in athletics" row, we know that there are a total of 84 students interested in athletics. We also know that 26 of these students are interested in both athletics and academic clubs. Therefore, the number of students interested in athletics but not academic clubs is:

84 - 26 = 58

We can use similar reasoning to fill in the remaining cells. For example, in the "Not interested in athletics" column, we know that there are a total of 214 students who are not interested in athletics. We also know that 144 students are interested in academic clubs. Therefore, the number of students who are not interested in athletics but are interested in academic clubs is:

144 - 26 = 118

Let x represent "not interested in academics club" and "not interested in athletic". Using the total in the horizontal (bottom row) we have:

144 + 58 + x = 240

x = 240 - 202

x = 38

We can use the coordinates of point P (-5, 5) to find the values of the trigonometric functions for the angle formed between the positive x-axis and the line passing through the origin and point P.

First, we can find the distance from the origin to point P using the Pythagorean theorem:

r = sqrt((-5)^2 + 5^2) = sqrt(50)

Next, we can use the fact that the sine of an angle is equal to the y-coordinate of a point on the unit circle and the cosine of an angle is equal to the x-coordinate of a point on the unit circle. Since the radius of the unit circle is 1, we need to divide the x and y coordinates of point P by sqrt(50) to get the values for sine and cosine:

sin(θ) = y/r = 5/sqrt(50) = (5/10)sqrt(2) = (1/2)sqrt(2)

cos(θ) = x/r = -5/sqrt(50) = -(5/10)sqrt(2) = -(1/2)sqrt(2)

Next, we can use the fact that the tangent of an angle is equal to the sine of the angle divided by the cosine of the angle:

tan(θ) = sin(θ)/cos(θ) = (1/2)sqrt(2)/(-(1/2)sqrt(2)) = -1

Similarly, we can use the reciprocal identities to find the values of the other three trigonometric functions:

csc(θ) = 1/sin(θ) = sqrt(2)

sec(θ) = 1/cos(θ) = -sqrt(2)

cot(θ) = 1/tan(θ) = -1

Therefore, the exact values of the six trigonometric functions for the angle formed by the line passing through the origin and point P (-5, 5) are:

sin(θ) = (1/2)sqrt(2)

cos(θ) = -(1/2)sqrt(2)

tan(θ) = -1

csc(θ) = sqrt(2)

sec(θ) = -sqrt(2)

cot(θ) = -1

the partial fraction decomposition of x^3-x/x^4+2x^2+1 is (x^3 - x)/(x^4 + 2x^2 + 1) = -1/4/(x^2 + 1)

To find the partial fraction decomposition of x^3-x/x^4+2x^2+1, we first factor the denominator:

x^4 + 2x^2 + 1 = (x^2 + 1)^2

So we can write:

(x^3 - x)/(x^4 + 2x^2 + 1) = A/(x^2 + 1) + B/(x^2 + 1)^2

Multiplying both sides by the denominator, we get:

x^3 - x = A(x^2 + 1) + B

Now we can solve for A and B by choosing appropriate values for x. Let's choose x = 0 first:

0 - 0 = A(0^2 + 1) + B

B = 0

Now let's choose x = 1:

1 - 1 = A(1^2 + 1) + 0

A = -1/4

So the partial fraction decomposition of x^3-x/x^4+2x^2+1 is:

(x^3 - x)/(x^4 + 2x^2 + 1) = -1/4/(x^2 + 1) + 0/(x^2 + 1)^2

The maximum height at the moment is 191.0625 ft.

What is the projectile's height?

Let's find out the projectile's maximum height now that we know what it is. The highest vertical location along the object's flight is considered to be its maximum height. The range of the bullet is defined as its horizontal displacement.

Here, we have

Given: The equation for a projectile's height versus time is h(t)=-16t²+Vt+h. A tennis ball machine serves a ball vertically into the air from a height of 2 feet, with an initial speed of 110 feet per second.

The equation for a projectile's height versus time is

h(t) = -16t²+Vt+h

h = 2

V = 110

Substitute these values into the function

h(t) = -16t²+110t+2

Take the first derivative

h'(t) = -32t + 110

Equate the derivative with zero h'(t) = 0

0 = -32t + 110

110 = 32t

t = 110/32

t = 3.4375

Find the maximum height at the moment

t = 3.4375 (s)

h(3.4375) = -16(3.4375)² + 110(3.4375) + 2

h(3.4375) = -189.0625 + 378.125 + 2

The p-value associated with the test statistic of z = 2.566 is 0.0045, accurate to four decimal places.

Based on the given information, we can conduct a one-tailed right-sided test using a normal distribution calculator to find the p-value associated with the test statistic of z = 2.566.

In hypothesis testing, a one-tailed right-sided test is a statistical test where the alternative hypothesis (H1) is specified to detect a change typically towards larger values.

Using a normal distribution calculator, we can find the cumulative distribution function (CDF) of the standard normal distribution at z = 2.566.

The CDF gives us the probability that a randomly selected value from a standard normal distribution is less than or equal to a given value.

Using a normal distribution calculator:

CDF at z = 2.566 = 0.9955 (rounded to four decimal places)

Since we are conducting a one-tailed right-sided test, we are interested in the probability of getting a value greater than the test statistic. Therefore, the p-value for the given test statistic is:

p-value = 1 - CDF at z = 2.566 = 1 - 0.9955 = 0.0045 (rounded to four decimal places)

Thus, the p-value associated with the test statistic of z = 2.566 is 0.0045, accurate to four decimal places.

the three friends spent L.120.00, L.240.00, and L.360.00, respectively.

How to solve the problem?

Let's denote the amount that Alicia spends as "x". According to the problem statement, we know that Juan spends twice as much as Alicia, which means he spends 2x. Similarly, we know that Ana spends three times as much as Alicia, which means she spends 3x.

We also know that the three friends together have spent L.720.00. So, we can set up an equation to represent this:

x + 2x + 3x = 720

Simplifying this equation, we get:

6x = 720

Dividing both sides by 6, we get:

x = 120

So, Alicia spent L.120.00, Juan spent twice as much as Alicia, which is L.240.00, and Ana spent three times as much as Alicia, which is L.360.00.

Therefore, the three friends spent L.120.00, L.240.00, and L.360.00, respectively.

Juan traveled approximately 288.24 miles.

The direct road would be approximately 288 miles long.

Juan's trip would be approximately 0.24 miles shorter if he was able to take the direct route.

We have,

a.

Here is a diagram illustrating Juan's trip:

house --------->

         y

b.

To find the total distance Juan traveled, we can use the Pythagorean theorem:

distance² = x² + y²

Juan drove 280 miles south (y direction) and 64 miles east (x direction), so we have:

distance² = 280² + 64²

distance² = 78,976 + 4,096

distance² = 83,072

Taking the square root of both sides, we get:

distance ≈ 288.24 miles

c.

To find the length of the direct road, we can use the Pythagorean theorem again:

distance² = x² + y²

The direct road forms a right triangle with legs of 280 miles and 64 miles, so we have:

distance² = 280² + 64²

distance² = 78,976 + 4,096

distance² = 83,072

Taking the square root of both sides, we get:

distance ≈ 288.24 miles

d.

To find how much shorter Juan's trip would be if he took the direct route, we can subtract the distance he traveled from the direct road distance:

288 - 288.24 ≈ -0.24

Thus,

Juan traveled approximately 288.24 miles.

The direct road would be approximately 288 miles long.

Juan's trip would be approximately 0.24 miles shorter if he was able to take the direct route.
