Answers:</h3>
angle FHG = 42 degrees
angle GHI = 100 degrees
=========================================================
Explanation:
FHI is the largest angle. It is split into two pieces FHG and GHI which have measures of (3x+6) and (9x-8) degrees respectively.
Put another way, those two smaller angles (FHG and GHI) combine to form the larger angle (FHI)
This is the angle addition postulate.
------------------
(angle FHG) + (angle GHI) = angle FHI
(3x+6) + (9x-8) = 142
3x+6+9x-8 = 142
(3x+9x) + (6-8) = 142
12x - 2 = 142
12x-2+2 = 142+2 ... adding 2 to both sides
12x = 144
12x/12 = 144/12 .... dividing both sides by 12
x = 12
------------------
Use that x value to find the angles we're after
angle FHG = 3x+6 = 3*12+6 = 36+6 = 42
angle GHI = 9x-8 = 9*12-8 = 108-8 = 100
Note how
(angle FHG) + (angle GHI) = 42 + 100 = 142
which is the measure of angle FHI. This confirms the answers.
The question is incomplete. The complete question is :
Let X be a random variable with probability mass function
P(X =1) =1/2, P(X=2)=1/3, P(X=5)=1/6
(a) Find a function g such that E[g(X)]=1/3 ln(2) + 1/6 ln(5). You answer should give at least the values g(k) for all possible values of k of X, but you can also specify g on a larger set if possible.
(b) Let t be some real number. Find a function g such that E[g(X)] =1/2 e^t + 2/3 e^(2t) + 5/6 e^(5t)
Solution :
Given :

a). We know :
![$E[g(x)] = \sum g(x)p(x)$](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%24E%5Bg%28x%29%5D%20%3D%20%5Csum%20g%28x%29p%28x%29%24)
So, 

Therefore comparing both the sides,


Also, 
b).
We known that ![$E[g(x)] = \sum g(x)p(x)$](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%24E%5Bg%28x%29%5D%20%3D%20%5Csum%20g%28x%29p%28x%29%24)
∴ 

Therefore on comparing, we get

∴
