Answer:

<h2>Cubing both sides of an equation is reversible.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Squaring both sides of an equation is irreversible, because the square power of negative number gives a positive result, but you can't have a negative base with a positive number, given that the square root of a negative number doesn't exist for real numbers.

In case of cubic powers, this action is reversible, because the cubic root of a negative number is also a negative number. For example

\sqrt[3]{x} =-1

We cube both sides

(\sqrt[3]{x} )^{3} =(-1)^{3} \\x=-1

If we want to reverse the equation to the beginning, we can do it, using a cubic root on each side

\sqrt[3]{x}=\sqrt[3]{-1} \\\sqrt[3]{x}=-1

There you have it, cubing both sides of an equation is reversible.

Feliz [49]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a )

sample mean = sum total of given data / no of data

= 415.35 / 20 = 20.76

To calculate the median we arrange the data in ascending order and take the average of 10 th and 11 th term .

= 20.50 + 20.72 / 2

= 20.61

b ) To calculate the 10% trimmed mean , we neglect the largest 10% and smallest 10 % data and then calculate the mean . Here we neglect the first two smallest and last two greatest

(18.92 + 19.25 ..... + 22.43 + 22.85) / 16

= 20.74

c )

We can easily plot the data on number line from 17 to 24

d )

Maximum value of data set = 23.71 and minimum value is 18.04

mean is 20.76 , median is 20.61 and trimmed mean is 20.74

They are between maximum and minimum values of given data . Hence there is no outliers .

The length of life of an instrument produced by a machine has a normal ditribution with a mean of 12 months and standard deviati
Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

a) P(X

And we can find this probability using the normal standard distirbution or excel and we got:

P(z

b) P(7

And we can find this probability with this difference:

P(-2.5

And in order to find these probabilities we can use tables for the normal standard distribution, excel or a calculator.  

P(-2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".  

a) less than 7 months.

Let X the random variable that represent the length of life of an instrument of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

X \sim N(12,2)  

Where \mu=12 and \sigma=2

We are interested on this probability

P(X

And the best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

If we apply this formula to our probability we got this:

P(X

And we can find this probability using the normal standard distirbution or excel and we got:

P(z

b) between 7 and 12 months.

P(7

And we can find this probability with this difference:

P(-2.5

And in order to find these probabilities we can use tables for the normal standard distribution, excel or a calculator.  

P(-2.5

lidiya [134]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that 30% of California residents have adequate earthquake supplies.

a) Ramon variable X denotes the number of the california residents that have adequate earthquake insurance

B) x can take value 1 ,2 ,3 ......

C)The distribution of random variable is geometric distribution with parameter p=0.3

The pmf of geometric distribution is

P(X=x)=0.3(1-0.3)^{x-1} , x=1,2,3...

D)P(X=1) or P(X=2)=P(X=1)+P(X=2)

P(X=1) or P(X=2)=0.3(1-0.3)^{1-1}+0.3(1-0.3)^{2-1}=0.51

E)

P(X \geq 3)=1-P(X

F)

E(X)=\frac{1}{p}

p is the resident who does not have adequate earthquake supplies.

p = 1-0.3 = 0.7

E(X)=\frac{1}{0.7}=1.42

G)E(X)=\frac{1}{q}=\frac{1}{0.3}=3.33
