Let X be the number of packages being mailed by a randomly selected customer at a certain shipping facility. Suppose the distribution of X is as follows:
x 1 2 3 4
p(x) 0.4 0.3 0.2 0.1
The required linear equation representing the distribution is
p(x) = -0.1x + 0.5
From the table given, we can generate the equation for the distribution.
Expressing as a coordinate form (x, p(x)). We can use the coordinate points (1, 0.4) and (2, 0.3)
The linear expression will be in the form p(x) = mx + b
m is the rate of change:b is the interceptGete the rate of change:
m = 0.3-0.4/2-1
m = -0.1/1
m = -0.1
Get the intercept.
0.4 = -0.1(1) + b
0.4 = -0.1 + b
b = 0.4 + 0.1
b = 0.5
Hence the required linear equation representing the distribution is
p(x) = -0.1x + 0.5

A marketing research company is estimating which of two soft drinks college students prefer. A random sample of n college students produced the following 95% confidence interval for the proportion of college students who prefer drink A: (.262. .622). Identify the point estimate for estimating the true proportion of college students who prefer that drink.
A) .18
B) .622
C) .262
D) .442
===================================================
Explanation:
To get the point estimate, we average the endpoints of the given confidence interval. Add up the endpoints and divide by 2
(low+high)/2 = (0.262+0.622)/2 = 0.442
The value 0.442 is right in the middle of the confidence interval, so it's a natural point estimate for the population proportion.
--------------
Alternative Method:
Subtract the endpoints to find the confidence interval width
width = high - low = 0.622 - 0.262 = 0.36
Cut this in half to get the margin of error (MoE)
MoE = width/2 = 0.36/2 = 0.18
Then we can either add on the MoE to the low endpoint, or subtract it from the high endpoint, to land on the center
center = low + MoE = 0.262 + 0.18 = 0.442center = high - MoE = 0.622 - 0.18 = 0.442Find the slope of the line that passes through (28, -25) and (27, 25).
Slope is the change in Y over the change in X:
Slope = (25- -25) / (27 - 28)
Slope = 50/-1
Slope = -50

In the gift shop of the History of Flight museum, Elisa bought a kit to make a model of a jet airplane. The actual plane is 27 feet long with a wingspan of 18 feet. If the finished model will be 13.5 inches long, what will the wingspan be?
The length of the wingspan of the finished model based on the dimensions of the kit is 0.75 feet
Given:
Kit
Plane = 27 feet
wingspan = 18 feet
Model:
Plane = 13.5 inches
Wingspan = x feet
convert 13.5 inches to feet
1 feet = 12 inches
13.5 inches = 1.125 feet
So,
equate Ratio of plane to wingspan
27 : 18 = 1.125 : x
27/18 = 1.125 / x
cross product
27 × x = 18 × 1.125
27x = 20.25
x = 20.25/27
x = 0.75 feet
Therefore, the length of the wingspan of the finished model based on the dimensions of the kit is 0.75 feet

Answer:
3 6/7
Step-by-step explanation:
Absolute value is the distance a number is away from 0 on a number line; another way of thinking about absolute value is that it is the positive version of every number. So, the absolute value of -1 is 1, and the absolute value of 88 is 88. We can apply this rule to 3 6/7 - how far is it away from 0 on the number line? What is it as a positive number? Well it is 3 6/7 away from 0 on the number line, and it already is positive, so our final answer will be 3 6/7.
Hopefully that's helpful! :)

To increase the volume of a sphere, you
must in crease the radius
decrease the radius
None of the answer choices is correct
decrease the circumference
The volume of a sphere is directly proportional to the radius cube thus with an increase in the radius it will increase so option (A) is correct.
What is the sphere?A sphere is a 3D geometrical object which has a radius and becomes a point that revolves around a fixed point called the center.
For example, if you have a sphere of radius r then its surface area will be 4πr² and
The volume of a sphere with radius r is given as (4/3)πr³.
V ∝ r³
By increasing the radius r the volume V will rapidly increase.
Hence "Because the volume of a sphere is precisely proportional to the cube of its radius, it will grow as the radius grows".

Answer:
a = b = 1 , c = - 8
Step-by-step explanation:
ax² + bx + c = y
( - 5 )² a - 5b + c = 12
c = - 8
3² a + 3b + c = 4
25a - 5b - 8 = 12 ⇔ 25a - 5b = 20 ⇔ 5a - b = 4 ........ (1)
9a + 3b - 8 = 4 ⇔ 9a + 3b = 12 ⇔ 3a + b = 4 .......... (2)
(1) + (2)
8a = 8 ; a = 1
b = 1

he Nassau Bahamas Community College (NBC) claims that students who take statistics spend on average 19 hours a week working. The population standard deviation is not known. Statistics students in MAT 102 believe students work more than 19 hours because they want to make more money.
Using the t-distribution, it is found that since the test statistic is greater than the critical value for the right-tailed test, it is found that there is enough evidence to conclude that the students' claim that they work more than 19 hours is correct.
At the null hypothesis, it is tested if they spend on average 19 hours a week working, that is:
[tex]H_0: \mu = 19[/tex]
At the alternative hypothesis, it is tested if they spend more than 19 hours a week working, that is:
[tex]H_1: \mu > 19[/tex]
We have the standard deviation for the sample, hence, the t-distribution is used.
The test statistic is given by:
[tex]t = \frac{\overline{x} - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]
The parameters are:
[tex]\overline{x}[/tex] is the sample mean. [tex]\mu[/tex] is the value tested at the null hypothesis. s is the standard deviation of the sample. n is the sample size.Searching the problem on the internet, it is found that the values of the parameters are:
[tex]\overline{x} = 24.2, \mu = 19, s = 12.59, n = 25[/tex]
Hence, the value of the test statistic is:
[tex]t = \frac{\overline{x} - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]
[tex]t = \frac{24.2 - 19}{\frac{12.59}{\sqrt{25}}}[/tex]
[tex]t = 2.07[/tex]
The critical value for a right-tailed test, as we are testing if the mean is greater than a value, with a significance level of 0.05 and 25 - 1 = 24 df is of [tex]t^{\ast} = 1.71[/tex]
Since the test statistic is greater than the critical value for the right-tailed test, it is found that there is enough evidence to conclude that the students' claim that they work more than 19 hours is correct.

Francis owns a cake shop. She is currently preparing cupcakes (x) and cookies (y) for two birthday
parties. The first birthday party ordered 20 cupcakes and 40 cookies and their total cost was $61. The second birthday party ordered 30 cupcakes and 30 cookies. Their total cost was $64.50.
The cost of cupcakes is $1.25 and cookies costs $0.90.
Two equations that would be used to determine the required values can be derived from this question:
20x + 40y = 61 equation 1
30x + 30y = 64.50 equation 2
In order to determine the value of y, the following steps would be taken: Multiply equation 1 by 3 and equation 2 by 2.
60x + 120y = 183 equation 3
60x + 60y = 129 equation 4
Subtract equation 4 from 3
60y = 54
Divide both sides of the equation by 60
y = $0.90
Substitute for y in equation 1
20x + 40(0.9) = 61
20x + 36 = 61
20x = 61 - 36
20x = 25
x = 25 / 20
x = $1.25
