Suppose there are three balls in a box. On one of the balls is the number 1, on another is the number 2, and on the third is the

number 3. You select two balls at random and without replacement from the box and note the two numbers observed. The sample space S consists of the three equally likely outcomes ((1,2), (1,3), (2,3)) (disregarding order). Let X be the sum of the two balls selected. (a) What is the distribution for X? (b) What is the probability that the sum is at least 4? (c) What is the mean of X?

Step-by-step explanation:

a) X is a discrete uniform distribution. As the number of outcomes is only 3.

b) sum is at least 4

X ≥ 4

i.e  (1,3) or (2,3)

probability of X ≥ 4 is 2/3

2/3= 0.667

66.7 % is the probability of the outcome to have  a sum at least 4.

c) The 3 likely outcome of X

<em>(1,2) where X ; </em> 1+2=3

<em>(1,3) where X ;</em> 1+3=4

<em>(2,3) where X ;</em>  2+3=5

Mean = 3+4+5/ 3

Mean = 4

The cost of 5 diesels is $1025. Calculate the cost of 17diesels
Talja [164]
To calculate the cost of 1 diesel divide the cost of 5 by 5 to get 1 or $1025/5=205
To get the cost of 17, multiply the cost of 1 which is 205x17=3,485 so 17 is $3,485

The dimensions of an iPhone are x – 2 and x + 3. If the area of an iPhone is 14 square inches, find the dimensions of the iPhone
QveST [7]

Answer:

The dimensions of the iphone are 2 inches by 7 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The dimensions of an iPhone are x – 2 and x + 3.

The area of an iphone is 14 sq inches

We need to find the dimensions of the iPhone. It is in the shape of a rectangle. Its area is given by :

A=l\times b\\\\(x-2)(x+3)=14\\\\x^2-2x+3x-6=14\\\\x^2+x-6-14=0\\\\x^2+x-20=0\\\\x^2+5x-4x-20=0\\\\x(x+5)-4(x+5)=0\\\\(x-4)(x+5)=0\\\\x=4\ and\ x=-5

Neglecting negative value

First dimension = (x-2) = (4-2) = 2 inches

Other dimension = (x+3) = (4+3) = 7 inches

Hence, the dimensions of the iphone are 2 inches by 7 inches.
