(4.1.4) Let X and Y be Bernoulli random variables. Let Z = X + Y. a. Show that if X and Y cannot both be equal to 1, then Z is a

Bernoulli random variable. b. Show that if X and Y cannot both be equal to 1, then pZ = pX + pY. c. Show that if X and Y can both be equal to 1, then Z is not a Bernoulli random variable.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

a)

X ~ Bernoulli (p_x) and Y ~ Bernoulli (y_x)

X + Y = Z

The possible value for Z are Z = 0 when X = 0 and Y = 0

and Z = 1 when X = 0 and Y = 1 or when X = 1 and Y = 0

If X and Y can not be both equal to 1 , then the probability mass function of the random variable Z takes on the value of 0 for any value of Z other than 0 and 1,

Therefore Z is a Bernoulli random variable

b)

If X and Y can not be both equal to  1

then,

p_z = P(X=1 or Y=1)\\

p_z = P(X=1)+P(Y=1)-P(=1 and Y =1)

p_z = P(x=1)+P(Y=1)\\\\p_z=p_x+p_y

c)

If both X = 1 and Y = 1 then Z = 2

The possible values of the random variable Z are 0, 1 and 2.

since a  Bernoulli variable should be take on only values 0 and 1 the random variable Z does not have Bernoulli distribution

Work out 114 % of 818.07 kg Give your answer rounded to 2 DP.
pshichka [43]

Answer:

932.60 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

To find a percent of a number, change the percent to a decimal and multiply by the number.

114% of 818.07 kg =

= 114% * 818.07 kg

= 114/100 * 818.07 kg

= 1.14 * 818.07 kg

= 932.60 kg

3/4x + 11 &lt; .3x + 3/4<br><br>Solve inequality. pls
Rashid [163]
<span><span><span><span>3/4</span>x</span>+11 </span>< <span><span>0.3x</span>+<span>3/4
</span></span></span>First turn 3/4 from both sides to decimals to get..
.75x+11 < 0.3x+.75
And then subtract 0.3x from both sides to get 
.45x+11 < .75
And then subtract 11 from both sides to get
.45x < -10.25
And then divide both sides by .45x to get
x < -22.77777778
