Determine the mean and variance of the random variable with the following probability mass function. f(x)=(216/43)(1/6)x, x=1,2,3 Round your answers to three decimal places (e.g. 98.765).

Answers

Mean:

E[X] = ∑ x f(x) = 1 × f (1) + 2 × f (2) + 3 × f (3) = 51/43 ≈ 1.186

Variance:

Recall that for a random variable X, its variance is defined as

Var[X] = E[(X - E[X])²] = E[X ²] - E[X

Now,

E[X ²] = ∑ x ² f(x) = 1² × f (1) + 2² × f (2) + 3² × f (3) = 69/43

Then

Var[X] = 69/43 - (51/43)² = 366/1849 ≈ 0.198

Ya I can help you. It is a quadratic function I’m pretty sure

Answer:

Quadratic formula

Step-by-step explanation:

The function is quadratic because it is a parabola. Exponential functions shoot either upwards or downwards rapidly, and it is clearly not linear due to it's curve. It also isn't piecewise because the function never stops or starts irregularly.

Peter organizes morning hikes for his friends every Saturday. When the hiking trail is 3 km long, 19 friends join him and when the trail is 5 km long, only 7 friends tag along. There exists a linear relationship between the distance of the hiking trail (in km) and the number of friends who tag along. The number of friends depend on the distance of the trail. Determine how many friends will tag along to a hiking trail of 2 km. ​

Answers

Answer:

25

Step-by-step explanation:

x = distance of the hike

y = number of friends coming along

so, we are looking for a linear relationship between these two.

y = ax + b

we need to find the factor a and the constant offset b.

19 = a×3 + b

7 = a×5 + b

7 - b = a×5

a = (7-b)/5

19 = (7-b)×3/5 + b

19 = (21 - 3b)/5 + b

95 = 21 - 3b + 5b

74 = 2b

b = 37

a= (7-37)/5 = -30/5 = -6

so, the relationship is

y = -6x + 37

for 2km hiking

y = -6×2 + 37 = -12 + 37 = 25 friends

In how many ways can a sample of 6 keyboards be selected so that exactly two have an electrical defect

Answers

Answer:

15ways

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a combination question since combination has to do with selection. Hence the number of ways sample of 6 keyboards can be selected so that exactly two have an electrical defect is expressed as;

6C2 = 6!/(6-2)!2!

6C2 = 6!/4!2!

6C2 = 6×5×4!/4!×2

6C2 = 6×5/2

6C2 = 30/2

6C2 = 15

Hence this can be done in 15ways

For this problem what I did was add all the measurements and I got 48 m. However, it is wrong. How do I go about solving the perimeter then?

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  66 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter is the sum of the measures of all of the sides. There are two side measures that are missing from the diagram.

The missing horizontal measure is ...

  17 m - 8 m = 9 m

The missing vertical measure is ...

  16m -7 m = 9 m.

If you add these to the sum you already calculated, you will get the correct answer:

  48 m + 9 m + 9 m = 66 m . . . perimeter of the figure

_____

If you're paying attention, you see that the sum of the measures of the two shorter horizontal segments is the same as the measure of the longer horizontal segment. Likewise, the sum of the measurements of the two shorter vertical segments is the same as that of the longer vertical segment.

In other words, the perimeter of this (and any) L-shaped figure is the same as the perimeter of a rectangle having the same horizontal and vertical dimensions as the long sides of the figure.

Step-by-step explanation:

  tan(∠CAE) = CE/AE

  tan(∠CAE) = 6/20

  ∠CAE = arctan(6/20) ≈ 16.7°

Nine children are to be divided into an A team, a B team and a C team of 3 each. The A team will play in one league, the B team in another, the C team in a third league. How many different divisions are possible

Answers

Answer:

The answer is "840".

Step-by-step explanation:

Following are the number of ways in which selecting a team A  by 9 children:

[tex]= ^{9_{C_{3}}\\\\\\[/tex]

[tex]=\frac{9!}{3! \times 6!} \\\\=\frac{9\times 8\times 7\times 6!}{3 \times 2\times 1\times 6!}\\\\=\frac{9\times 8\times 7}{3 \times 2\times 1}\\\\=\frac{3\times 4\times 7}{1}\\\\=\frac{84}{1}\\\\=84[/tex]

Following are the number of ways in which selecting a team B  by remaining 6 children:

 [tex]= ^{6}_{C_{3}}[/tex]

[tex]= \frac{6!}{(3! \times 3!)}\\\\= \frac{6!}{(3\times 2\times 1 \times 3!)}\\\\= \frac{6\times 5 \times 4 \times 3!}{(3\times 2\times 1 \times 3!)}\\\\= \frac{ 5 \times 4 \times 3!}{3!}\\\\= 5 \times 4 \\\\=20[/tex]

Following are the number of ways in which selecting a team C  by remaining 3 children:

[tex]= ^{3}_{C_{3}}\\\\=\frac{3!}{3!}\\\\= 1[/tex]

Following are the number of ways in which making 3 teams by 9 children:

[tex]= \frac{(84 \times 20 \times 1)}{3!}\\\\= \frac{(84 \times 20 )}{6}\\\\= 14 \times 20\\\\= 280\\\\[/tex]

(Note: we've split by 3! Because it also is necessary to implement three teams between themselves)

Now 3 leagues have to be played. One is going to be run by each team.

That is the way it is

Different possible divisions

Answers

Answer:

[tex]f(x) - g(x) = 2x + 12[/tex]

[tex]m(x) = f(x) - g(x)[/tex] --- True

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]f(x) = -3x + 5[/tex]

[tex]g(x) = -5x - 7[/tex]

[tex]m(x) = 2x + 12[/tex]

Solving (a): [tex]f(x) - g(x)[/tex]

From the given parameters, we have:

[tex]f(x) = -3x + 5[/tex]

[tex]g(x) = -5x - 7[/tex]

So:

[tex]f(x) - g(x)=-3x+5 + 5x + 7[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]f(x) - g(x) = 2x + 12[/tex]

Solving (b) m(x) = f(x) = g(x)?

In (a), we have:

[tex]f(x) - g(x) = 2x + 12[/tex]

And

Elise's math exam had 50 problems on it. She was able
to do 36 of them in 1 hour. What percent of the math problems did
she complete?

Answers

Answer:

72%

Step-by-step explanation:

Elise did 36 out of 50 problems in 1 hour. Another way to write 36 out of 50 is 36/50.

To find the percent from a fraction, one thing we can do is make the denominator 100 but still make the fraction the same, and then take the numerator.

We have 36/50, but want to make the denominator 100, not 50. We know that 100/50 = 2, so we have to multiply 50 by 2 to get 100.

Keeping the fraction equal, we can multiply 36/50 by 2/2 to get 72/100. We can do this because 2/2=1, so we are keeping the fraction the same -- just changing the numbers a little bit.

A fraction of form x/100 is equal to x%, so 72/100 = 72% as our answer

P(AUB)+P(A∩B)=P(A)+P(B)

P(AUB)=0.4+0.3-0.1=0.6

Answer C

The correct answer is option (C).

P(A ∪ B) = 0.6

Formula to find P(A ∪ B):

If A, B are two different events then P(A U B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A ∩ B)

We have been given, P(A) = 0.4, P(B) = 0.3

From given Venn diagram,

P(A ∩ B) = 0.10

Now, P(A U B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A ∩ B)

⇒ P(A U B) = 0.4 + 0.3 - 0.10

⇒ P(A ∪ B) = 0.6

Therefore, the correct answer is option (C) .6

For a confidence level of 88%, find the critical value for a normally distributed variable. The sample mean is normally distributed if the population standard deviation is known.

Answer:

z = ±  0.772193214

Step-by-step explanation:

Hence, the critical value for a [tex]88[/tex]% confidence level is [tex]z=1.56[/tex].

What is the standard deviation?

Standard deviation is the degree of dispersion or the scatter of the data points relative to its mean, in descriptive statistics.

It tells how the values are spread across the data sample and it is the measure of the variation of the data points from the mean.

Here given that,

For a confidence level of  [tex]88[/tex]%, find the critical value for a normally distributed variable.

Let us assume that the standard normal distribution having a mean is [tex]0[/tex] and the standard deviation is [tex]1[/tex].

As the significance level is [tex]1[/tex] - confidence interval

Confidence interval is [tex]\frac{80}{100}=0.88[/tex]

i.e., [tex]1-0.88=0.12[/tex]

For the two sided confidence interval the confidence level is [tex]0.44[/tex].

Now, the standard normal probability table the critical value for the  [tex]88[/tex]% confidence level is [tex]1.56[/tex].

iii. Using the three letters of the angles with the vertex angle in the middle. i.e. if the three points that form an angle are A, B, C and the vertex is B, we can name the angle as <ABC.

Which two sentences in these excerpts reflect the common theme of soldiers reluctance to talk about their war experiences?Ambushby Tim O'Brien (excerpt)When she was nine, my daughter Kathleen asked if I had ever killed anyone. She knew about the war; she knew I'd been a soldier. "You keep writing war stories," she said, "so I guess you must've killed somebody." It was a difficult moment, but I did what seemed right, which was to say, "Of course not," and then to take her onto my lap and hold her for a while. Someday, I hope, she'll ask again.
