In 4 hours Bethany did the whole fraction 1 of the house.

In 1 hour he would do 1/4 of it.

In 3 hours Colin did the whole fraction 1 of the house.

<span>In 1 hour he would do 1/3 of it.
</span>
In 1 hour they would both do (1/4 + 1/3)

If it takes both of them x hours to finish 1 whole fraction of the house.

In 1 hour they will both do   1/x

That means that:

1/x = 1/4 + 1/3

That is the equation.   x can be solved for.

The random variable x has the following probability distribution: x f(x) 0 .25 1 .20 2 .15 3 .30 4 .10 a. Is this probability di
Reptile [31]

Answer and Explanation:

Given : The random variable x has the following probability distribution.

To find :

a. Is this probability distribution valid? Explain and list the requirements for a valid probability distribution.

b. Calculate the expected value of x.

c. Calculate the variance of x.

d. Calculate the standard deviation of x.

Solution :

First we create the table as per requirements,

x      P(x)         xP(x)           x²            x²P(x)

0    0.25           0               0                0

1     0.20        0.20             1              0.20

2    0.15          0.3               4             0.6

3    0.30         0.9               9             2.7

4    0.10          0.4               16             1.6

   ∑P(x)=1     ∑xP(x)=1.8               ∑x²P(x)=5.1

a) To determine that table shows a probability distribution we add up all five probabilities if the sum is 1 then it is a valid distribution.

\sum P(X)=0.25+0.20+0.15+0.30+0.10

\sum P(X)=1

Yes it is a probability distribution.

b) The expected value of x is defined as

E(x)=\sum xP(x)=1.8

c) The variance of x is defined as

V=\sum x^2P(x)-(\sum xP(x))^2\\V=5.1-(1.8)^2\\V=5.1-3.24\\V=1.86

d) The standard deviation of x is  defined as

\sigma=\sqrt{V}

\sigma=\sqrt{1.86}

\sigma=1.136
