To explain step-by-step:
A tobacco company asserts that the nicotine content in its cigarettes behaves as a random variable with a mean of 2.2 mg and a standard deviation of.3 mg.
This means the population parameters are

The likelihood that the sample average would equal or exceed 3.1

equals 0.0000
(5x - 3y)(25x² + 15xy + 9y²) Step-by-step explanation: 125x³ - 27y³ is a difference of cubes and can be factored as a³ - b³ = (a - b)(a² + ab + b²). Given 125x³ - 27y³ = (5x)³ - (3y)³, it can be written as (5x - 3y)((5x)² + (5x)(3y) + (3y)²) = (5x - 3y)(25x² + 15xy + 9y²).
A proportion maintains a consistent ratio m/d
If m = 0.75d, then the m/d ratio translates to (0.75d)/d = 0.75
In this case, the ratio can be expressed as (.75d-2)/d = 0.75 - (2/d).
Thus, it is not proportional.
