Calculate the expected value E(X) of the given random variable X. X is the higher number when two dice are rolled, or the common

Answer:

4.4722

Step-by-step explanation:

The following table shows the 36 elements of the sample space of the experiment

\left[\begin{array}{cccccccc}&1&2&3&4&5&6\\--&--&--&--&--&--&--\\1\;|&1&2&3&4&5&6\\2\;|&2&2&3&4&5&6\\3\;|&3&3&3&4&5&6\\4\;|&4&4&4&4&5&6\\5\;|&5&5&5&5&5&6\\6\;|&6&6&6&6&6&6\end{array}\right]

From this table we can compute the probabilities :

P(X = 1) = 1/36

P(X = 2) = 3/36

P(X = 3) = 5/36

P(X = 4) = 7/36

P(X = 5) = 9/36

P(X = 6) = 11/36

So the expected value equals

1P(X=1)+2P(X=2)+3P(X=3)+4P(X=4)+5P(X=5)+6P(X=6) =

= 1/36 + 6/36 + 15/36 + 28/36 + 45/36 + 66/36 = 161/36 =

Luke has two summer jobs. During the week he works in the grocery store, and on the
TiliK225 [7]

Hello! First, let's get some important information:

Luke works in the:

  • week → grocery store → $16/hour
  • weekend → nursery → $22/hour

Now, let's analyze the questions:

<h3>a) How much does he earn if he works 5 hours at the grocery store and 8 hours at the nursery? </h3>

To find the amount he will receive, you must multiply the amount of 1 hour by the number of hours worked. Look:

\mathrm{Grocery\:Store}\\\\\$16 \cdot 5 \:\mathrm{hours}= \$80\\\$22 \cdot 8\:\mathrm{hours}=\$176

<h3>b) How much does he earn if he works g hours at the grocery store and n hours at the nursery?</h3>

\$16 \cdot \mathrm{g} \:\mathrm{hours}= \$16\cdot\mathrm{g}\\\$22 \cdot \mathrm{n}\:\mathrm{hours}=\$22\cdot\mathrm{n}

<h3>c) Total pay, 5 hours at the grocery store and 8 hours at the nursery:</h3>

You'll just have to just add the value in each of the jobs:

$80 + $176 = $256

<h3>d) Total pay, g hours at the grocery store and n hours at the nursery:</h3>

Adding the values of each job:

$16g + $22n

Hope this helps!
