Ted is not particularly creative. he uses the pickup line "if i could rearrange the alphabet, i'd put u and i together." the random variable x is the number of girls ted approaches before encountering one who reacts positively. determine whether the table describes a probability distribution. if it does, find its mean and standard deviation. if a probability distribution is not given, identify the requirements that are not satisfied.
x p(x)
1 0.001
2 0.025
3 0.101
4 0.246
5 0.503

Not a probability distribution

Step-by-step explanation:

The given table doesn't describe a probability distribution as in order for the given distribution to be a probability distribution the sum of probabilities is required to be equal to one.

Here,

Sum of probabilities = 0.001+0.025+0.101+0.246+0.503 = 0.876

The sum of probabilities is not equal to one.

Therefore, the given distribution is not a probability distribution ..

37/3

step-by-step explanation:

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

7x+8(x+

)=3(6x−9)−8

7x+(8)(x)+(8)(

4

)=(3)(6x)+(3)(−9)+−8(distribute)

7x+8x+2=18x+−27+−8

(7x+8x)+(2)=(18x)+(−27+−8)(combine like terms)

15x+2=18x+−35

15x+2=18x−35

tep 2: subtract 18x from both sides.

15x+2−18x=18x−35−18x

−3x+2=−35

step 3: subtract 2 from both sides.

−3x+2−2=−35−2

−3x=−37

step 4: divide both sides by -3.
