An individual who has automobile insurance from a certain company is randomly selected. Let Y be the number of mov- ing violatio

ns for which the individual was cited during the last 3 years. The pmf of Y is y0123 p(y) .60 .25 .10 .05 a. Compute E(Y). b. Suppose an individual with Y violations incurs a sur- charge of $100Y2. Calculate the expected amount of the surcharge

Answer:

a) E(Y) = \sum_{i=1}^n Y_i P(Y_i)

And replacing we got:

E(Y) =0*0.60 +1*0.25 +2*0.1 +3*0.05 = 0.60

b) E(Y^2) =0^2*0.60 +1^2*0.25 +2^2*0.1 +3^2*0.05 = 1.1

And then the expected value would be:

E(100Y^2) = 100*1.1= 110

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume the following distribution given:

Y       0       1        2        3

P(Y) 0.60 0.25  0.10  0.05

Part a

We can find the expected value with this formula:

E(Y) = \sum_{i=1}^n Y_i P(Y_i)

And replacing we got:

E(Y) =0*0.60 +1*0.25 +2*0.1 +3*0.05 = 0.60

Part b

If we want to find the expected value of 100 Y^2 we need to find the expected value of Y^2 and we have:

E(Y^2) = \sum_{i=1}^n Y^2_i P(Y_i)

And replacing we got:

E(Y^2) =0^2*0.60 +1^2*0.25 +2^2*0.1 +3^2*0.05 = 1.1

And then the expected value would be:

E(100Y^2) = 100*1.1= 110

Answer:

For the answer to the question above, the numbers of pages in the books in a library follow a normal distribution. If the mean number of pages is 180 and the standard deviation is 30 pages, you can conclude that about 16% of the books have fewer than 150 pages.

A = ?<br> b = ?<br> Please explain as well :)
sweet [91]

Answer:

a = 25 , b = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

For A

a/5 + 3 = 8

a/5 = 8 - 3

a/5 = 5

Cross multiply

a = 5 * 5

a = 25

For B

3b/7 - 1 = 5

3b/7 = 5 + 1

3b/7 = 6

Cross multiply

3b = 42

b = 42 / 3

b = 14

Hope it will help

-14x + 15y = 15 <br> -21x - 20y = -10<br> Use substitution to find the x and y coordinates.
denis-greek [22]
                  -14x + 15y = 15
        -14x + 14x + 15y = 14x + 15
                             15y = 14x + 15
                              15           15
                                 y = ¹⁴/₁₅x + 1
                   -21x - 20y = -10
     -21x - 20(¹⁴/₁₅x + 1) = -10
-21x - 20(¹⁴/₁₅x) - 20(1) = -10
         -21x - 18²/₃x - 20 = -10
                  -39²/₃x - 20 = -10
                            + 20  + 20
                          -39²/₃x = 10
                           -39²/₃   -39²/₃
                                   x = ⁻³⁰/₁₁₉
                                   y = ¹⁴/₁₅x + 1
                                   y = ¹⁴/₁₅(⁻³⁰/₁₁₉) + 1
                                   y = ⁻²⁸/₁₁₉ + 1
                                   y = ⁹¹/₁₁₉
                              (x, y) = (⁻³⁰/₁₁₉, ⁹¹/₁₁₉)

It's a computation. It would be 8!/3!(8-3)! If my memory serves me correctly.
