Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Note: If you have any queries related the answer please do comment. I would be very happy to resolve all your queries.

Firstly we will make PMF

For X=0, P=(4/5)^3=64/125

For X=1, P=C(3,1)*(1/5)*(4/5)^2=3*16/125=48/125

For X=2, P=C(3,2)*(1/5)^2*(4/5)=3*4/125=12/125

For X=3, P=C(3,3)*(1/5)^3=1/125

So,

E[X^2]=1*48/125+2^2*(12/125)+3^2/125=0.84

E[X]=48/125+12/125*2+1/125*3=0.6

So,

E[X]^2=0.36

A. x = 2, y =6<br> B. x = 2, y =3<br> C. x =-2, y =3<br> D. x = -3, y =2
AlekseyPX

Answer:

The correct answer is A) x = 2 and y = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the answer, we need to set the hypotenuses equal to each other. Then we can solve for y to get the equation.

y - 1 = x + 3

y = x + 4

Now we can do the same with the leg lengths.

y - 3 = 2x - 1

y = 2x + 2

Now that we have two equations, we can set them equal to each other to get the x value.

x + 4 = 2x + 2

4 = x + 2

2 = x

Now that we have x, we can plug it into any equation to get the y value.

y = x + 4

y = 2 + 4

y = 6
