According to a college survey, 22% of all students work full time. Find the standard deviation for the random variable X, the number of students who work full time in samples of size 16.

1.66

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculation to find the standard deviation for the random variable X of the number of students who work full time in samples of size

Using this formula

Standard deviation(X)=√np(1−p)

Where,

n represent the number of students=16

p represent the percentage of all students who work full time=22

Let plug in the formula

Standard deviation(X)=√16(0.22)(1−0.22)

Standard deviation(X)=√(3.52)(0.78)

Standard deviation(X)=√2.7456

Standard deviation(X)=1.656

Standard deviation(X)=1.66 (Approximately)

Therefore the standard deviation for the number of students who work full time in samples of size 16 will be 1.66

the direct variation says that:

then the equation is of the form is given by:

            where k is the constant variation.

from the given table:

consider any value of x and m(x)=y

x = 2 and m(x)=y = 3

substitute these value in [1]; we have;

divide both sides by 2 we get;

⇒

check:

put x = -1 and m(x) = -1.5

substitute in the equation:

-1.5 = -1.5                   true

therefore, the function m(x) represents a direct variation
