Response:

The possible counts of students are 2, 4, or 5.

Detailed breakdown:

The total number of cookies is 20.

The total number of pizza slices is 40.

The ratio of pizza to cookies is 2:1.

Thus, for every 1 cookie, a student could have 2 slices of pizza.

Let x represent the number of students, and y the cookies per student.

Then, x × y = 20.

We can have the following combinations:

x = 1 and y = 20;

x = 2 and y = 10;

x = 4 and y = 5;

x = 5 and y = 4.

This indicates the possible counts of students are 2, 4, or 5.

4 students would be present

Each one would get 5 cookies

Each would also receive 10 slices of pizza

I hope this information is useful

A bag contains chips of which 27.5 percent are blue. A random sample of 5 chips will be selected one at a time and with replacem
lawyer [12517]

Answer:

\mu _{\hat{p}}= 0.275\\\\ \sigma_{\hat{p}}=0.1997

Step-by-step explanation:

It is known that the mean and standard deviation of the sampling distribution of the sample proportion(\hat{p}) are represented as follows:-

\mu _{\hat{p}}=p\\\\ \sigma_{\hat{p}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n}}

, where p= Population proportion and n = sample size.

Let p denote the proportion of blue chips.

According to the information provided, we have

p= 0.275

n= 5

Thus, the mean and standard deviation of the sampling distribution of the sample proportion of blue chips for samples of size 5 will be:

\mu _{\hat{p}}= 0.275\\\\ \sigma_{\hat{p}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{ 0.275(1- 0.275)}{5}}\\\\=0.19968725547\approx0.1997

Therefore, you will have the mean and standard deviation for the sample proportion of blue chips for samples of size 5:

\mu _{\hat{p}}= 0.275\\\\ \sigma_{\hat{p}}=0.1997
