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

Answer 1

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

(each sum is taken over x in the set {1, 2, 3})

Kevin made a business trip of 312.5 miles. He averages 60 mph for the first part of the trip and 55 mph for the second part. If the trip took a 5.5 hours how long did he travel at each rate

Answers

Answer:

Kevin travels for 2 hours at 60 mph and 3.5 hours at 55 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say that Kevin spends x hours going 60 mph and y hours going 55 mph. We can say that the sum of the two parts is 5.5, so x+y = 5.5 . Next, he goes 60 miles per hour for the first part of the trip, so for each hour he goes 60 mph, he travels 60 miles. We can then denote 60 * x as the distance traveled during the first part of his trip as he goes 60 mph for x hours. Similarly, 55 * y denotes the distance Kevin travels during the second part of his trip. His total distance is thus 60 * x + 55 * y = 312.5 miles

We have

x + y = 5.5

60 * x + 55 * y = 312.5

One way we can solve this is to solve for y in the first equation and plug that into the second. Subtracting x from both sides in the first equation, we get

y = 5.5 - x

Plugging that into the second equation, we get

60 * x + 55 * (5.5-x) = 312.5

60 * x + 55 * 5.5 - 55x = 312.5

5x  +302.5 = 312.5

subtract 302.5 from both sides to isolate the x and its coefficient

5x = 10

divide both sides by 5 to solve for x

x = 2

y = 5.5 - x = 5.5 - 2 = 3.5

Therefore, Kevin travels for 2 hours at 60 mph and 3.5 hours at 55 mph

  y = 1/2x + 6

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope m is given by the formula ...

  m = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)

  m = (10 -6)/(8 -0) = 4/8 = 1/2

The y-intercept is given by the formula ...

  b = y -mx

  b = 6 -(1/2)(0) = 6

Then the slope-intercept equation is ...

  y = mx +b

  y = 1/2x +6

Then

256⁴−4(256)³(1)+6(256)²(1)²−4(256)(1)³+(1)⁴

Consider that:

Now factorize:

256⁴ - 1 = (2⁸)⁴ - 1 = 2³² - 1 = (2¹⁶ - 1)(2¹⁶ + 1) = (2⁸ - 1)(2⁸ + 1)(2¹⁶ + 1) = (2⁴ - 1)(2⁴ + 1)(2⁸ + 1)(2¹⁶ + 1) = (2² - 1)(2² + 1)(2⁴ + 1)(2⁸ + 1)(2¹⁶ + 1) = (2 - 1)(2 + 1)(2² + 1)(2⁴ + 1)(2⁸ + 1)(2¹⁶ + 1)

A health club sold ten memberships in one week for total of $3000. If male memberships cost $300 and female memberships cost $300, then how many male memberships and how female memberships were sold?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The reason you haven't gotten an answer to this is because in its current formatting, there is no answer. Here's what I mean:

The first equation is going to be concerning the NUMBER of memberships sold, where m is male and f is female. The total number of memberships was 10:

m + f = 10

Now for the money equation. The total amount of money made from that number of memberships was 3000, where male memberships cost $300 and so do the female memberships, giving us an equation of

300m + 300f = 3000

Go back to the first equation and solve for either m or f. I solved for m in terms of f:

m = 10 - f and sub that into the second equation for m to get:

300(10 - f) + 300f = 3000 and

3000 - 300f + 300f = 3000. Here is where you find the problem. The -300f and the 300f cancel each other out, leaving you with the fact that

3000 = 3000 which it does, but it doesn't give us any viable answer.

I would have to say that since we can't do math on this, that the most credible answer you'll find is that the same number of male and female memberships were sold because 5 male memberships cost $1500 (5 memberships at $300 a piece is $1500) and 5 female memberships also cost $1500.

1500 + 1500 = 3000
