A school class of 120 students is driven in 3 buses to a symphonic performance. There are 36 students in one of the buses, 40 in

another, and 44 in the third bus. When the buses arrive, one of the 120 students is randomly chosen. Let X denote the number of students on the bus of that randomly chosen student, find E(X).

Answer:

40.2667

Step-by-step explanation:

P(X=36)= 36/120

P(X=40)= 40/120

P(X=44)=44/120

E(X) = 36(36/120)+40(40/120)+44(44/120)=1208/30=40.2667

hope this helps

A set of data points has a line of best fit of y=2.5x-1.5

castortr0y [4]

To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:

1- You must apply the following formula:

$R=yo-yp$

Where $R$ is the residual, $yo$ is the observed value $y$ and $yp$ is the predicted value $y$ .

2- You only need to substitute the $x=5$ into the equation $y=2.5x-1.5$ and then, you must apply the formula for calculate the residual:

$y=2.5(5)-1.5\\ y=11$

$R=12-11\\ R=1$

The answer is: The residual is $1$

An oblique prism with a square base of edge length x units has a volume of One-halfx3 cubic units. Which expression represents t

lara [203]

Answer:one-half x units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Prism has a square base with length $x\ units$

If the volume of prism $V=\frac{1}{2}x^3\ units$

We know

$Volume=base\ area\times height$

Base area $=x\times x=x^2\ units$

$height=\frac{Volume}{area}$

$height=\frac{\frac{1}{2}x^3}{x^2}$

$height=\frac{x}{2}\ units$

Given : The revenue each season from tickets at the theme part is represented by $t(x) = 5x$ .

The cost to pay the employees each season is represented by $r(x) = (1.5)x$ .

From the given graph , we can see that at 4th season, the profit = 15

Hence, the estimated profit after four seasons. =15

What are the explicit equation and domain for an arithmetic sequence with a first term of 8 and a second term of 5? 20 pts.

fgiga [73]

ANSWER

$a_n = 11 - 3n$

EXPLANATION

The explicit rule for an arithmetic sequence is given by:

$a_n = a_1 + d(n - 1)$

It was given that:

$a_1 = 8$

and

$a_2 = 3$

The common difference is

$d = 5 - 8 = - 3$

We plug in the values into the explicit formula to get,

$a_n = 8+ - 3(n - 1)$

Expand to get,

$a_n = 8 - 3n + 3$

The explicit rule is

$a_n = 11 - 3n$
