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

Which expression is equivalent to the product of p+7/3 and 6/p , where p is not equal to 0?
vichka [17]

Answer:

\frac{(6p+14)}{p}

Step-by-step explanation:

(p+\frac{7}{3})(\frac{6}{p})

Making denominator same in first bracket we get

(\frac{3p+7}{3})(\frac{6}{p})

(\frac{(3p+7)*6}{3*p})

Dividing 6 by 3 we get 2

(\frac{(3p+7)*2}{p})

using distributive law

(\frac{6p+14}{p})\\

Hence this is our answer

Find the four arithmetic means between 100 and 135. Show work.
Masteriza [31]

Answer:

Please read the answers below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's calculate the four means between 100 and 135, this way:

1. Arithmetic mean:

(100 + 135)/2 = 117.5

2. Weighted mean:

We will assign equal weight to both numbers : 5

(100 * 5 + 135 * 5)/10 = (500 + 675)/10 = 1,175/10 = 117.5

3. Geometric mean:

√100 * 135 = √13,500 = 116.2 (Rounding to the next tenth)

4. Harmonic mean:

2/(1/100 + 1/135) = 2/(0.01 + 0.0074) = 114.9 (Rounding to the next tenth)

Sue needs to drive 372 miles to visit her aunt. She stopped at a gas station one-third of the way in to her trip. How many miles
IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

Sue has traveled 124 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the distance covered by Sue is a fraction of the total distance to be covered.

The total distance to her aunt's = 372 miles

but the gas station is at one-third of the distance to be covered.

Thus,

Miles traveled by Sue = \frac{1}{3} x 372

                                    = 124

Miles traveled by Sue = 124 miles.

Therefore Sue has traveled 124 miles.
