Norma-Jean [14]
A).  |x| = |-x|
This is always true.
The definition of 'absolute' value is 'size of the number without its sign'.
That's what this expression says.

b).  |x| = -|x|
This is never true, because an absolute value is never negative.
This one would true if x=0 .  So maybe some people might say
it's sometimes true, but that doesn't feel right to me.  I say never.

c).  |-x| = -|x|
This looks to me like exactly the same situation as (b),
and I would say all the same things about it.

Matching each equation of the plecewise function represented in the graph will be:

  • 2 < x < 3 = 3 - x
  • 0 < x < 2 = 1
  • x = 2 = x
  • 3 < x < 5 = 5 - x

<h3>How to illustrate the information?</h3>

It should be noted that a domain simply means the set of inputs that are accepted by the function.

In this case, the equation of the piecewise function represented is given.

The graph is attached.

The CEO of a clothing company estimates that 52% of customers will make a purchase. Part A: How many customers should a salesper
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

(a) The expected number of should a salesperson expect until she finds a customer that makes a purchase is 0.9231.

(b) The probability that a salesperson helps 3 customers until she finds the first person to make a purchase is 0.058.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let<em> </em>the random variable <em>X</em> be defined as the number of customers the salesperson assists before a customer makes a purchase.

The probability that a customer makes a purchase is, <em>p</em> = 0.52.

The random variable <em>X</em> follows a Geometric distribution since it describes the distribution of the number of trials before the first success.

The probability mass function of <em>X</em> is:

P(X=x)=(1-p)^{x}p

The expected value of a Geometric distribution is:

E(X)=\frac{1-p}{p}

(a)

Compute the expected number of should a salesperson expect until she finds a customer that makes a purchase as follows:

E(X)=\frac{1-p}{p}

         =\frac{1-0.52}{0.52}\\=0.9231

This, the expected number of should a salesperson expect until she finds a customer that makes a purchase is 0.9231.

(b)

Compute the probability that a salesperson helps 3 customers until she finds the first person to make a purchase as follows:

P(X=3)=(1-0.52)^{3}\times0.52\\=0.110592\times 0.52\\=0.05750784\\\approx 0.058

Thus, the probability that a salesperson helps 3 customers until she finds the first person to make a purchase is 0.058.
