Jing spent 1/3 of her money on a pack of pens, 1/2 of her money on a pack of markers, and 1/8 of her money on a pack of pencils.
Reika [66]

As per the problem

Jing spent \frac{1}{3} of her money on a pack of pens.

\frac{1}{2} of her money on a pack of markers.

and \frac{1}{8} of her money on a pack of pencils.

Total fraction of money spent cab be given as below

Fraction of Money Spent =\frac{1}{3} +\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{8}

Take the LCD of denominator, we get LCD of (3,2,8)=24

Fraction of Money Spent =\frac{8+12+3}{24} =\frac{23}{24} \\\\

\\ \text{Hence fraction of Money Spent }=\frac{23}{24} \\ \\ \text{Fraction of Money left}=1-\frac{23}{24} \\ \\ \text{Simplify, we get}\\ \\ \text{Fraction of Money left}=\frac{24-23}{24} \\  \\ \text{Fraction of Money left}=\frac{1}{24}

ANTONII [103]

Answer:

D) a chi square test for independence.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that we  suspect that automobile insurance premiums (in dollars) may be steadily decreasing with the driver's driving experience (in years), so we choose a random sample of drivers who have similar automobile insurance coverage and collect data about their ages and insurance premiums.

We are to check whether two variables insurance premiums and driving experience are associated.

Two categorical variables are compared for different ages and insurance premiums.

Hence a proper test would be

german

Answer:

The following are the answer to this question:

Step-by-step explanation:

In the given question the numeric value is missing which is defined in the attached file please fine it.  

Calculating the probability of the distribution for x:

\to f(x) = 0.19\  for \ x=14\\\\\to  f(x) = 0.29 \ for\ x=7\\\\\to f(x) = 0.38\  for \ x=1\\\\\to f(x)=0.14 \ for \ x=0\\

The formula for calculating the mean value:

\bold{ E(X)= x \times f(x)}

          =14 \times 0.19+7 \times 0.29+1 \times 0.38+0\times 0.14\\\\=2.66 + 2.03+0.38+ 0\\\\=5.07

\bold{E(X^2) = x^2 \times f(x)}

           =14^2 \times 0.19+7^2 \times 0.29+1^2 \times 0.38+0^2 \times 0.14 \\\\=196 \times 0.19+ 49 \times 0.29+1 \times 0.38+0 \times 0.14\\\\= 37.24+ 14.21+ 0.38+0 \\\\=51.83

use formula for calculating the Variance:

\to \bold{\text{Variance}= E(X^2) -[E(X)]^2}

                  = 51.83 - (5.07)^2\\\\= 51.83 -  25.70\\\\=26.13

calculating the value of standard deivation:

Standard Deivation (SD) = \sqrt{Variance}

                                          = \sqrt{26.13} \\\\=5.111
