Explanation:
Marginal distribution: This distribution gives the probability for each possible value of the Random variable ignoring other random variables. Basically, the values of other variables is not considered in the marginal distribution, they can be any value possible. For example, if you have two variables X and Y, the probability of X being equal to a value, lets say, 4, contemplates every possible scenario where X is equal to 4, independently of the value Y has taken. If you want the probability of a dice being a multiple of 3, you are interested that the dice is either 3 or 6, but you dont care if the dice is even or odd.
Conditional distribution: This distribution contrasts from the previous one in the sense that we are restricting the universe of events to specific condition for other variable, making a modification of our marginal results. If we know that throwing a dice will give us a result higher than 2, then to in order to calculate the probability of the dice being a multiple of 3 using that condition, we have two favourable cases (3 and 6) from 4 total possible results (3,4,5 and 6) discarding the impossible values (1 and 2) from this universe since they dont match the condition given (note that the restrictions given can also reduce the total of favourable cases).
The joint distribution calculates the probabilities for two different events (related to two different random variables) occuring simultaneously. If we want to calculate the joint probability of a dice being multiple of 3 and greater than 2 at the same time, our possible cases in this case are 3 and 6 from 6 possible results. We are not discarding 1 or 2 as possible results because we are not assuming, that the dice is greater than 2, that is another condition that we should met in the combination of events.
Answer:
x=1
Step-by-step explanation:
So, first you make sure to multiply the parenthesis by the negative so then it would be,
-x-3=2x-6
Then you add the -3 from the right to the other side
so, -x=2x-3
Then you want all the X variables to one side so you subtract the 2x to both sides.
so, -3x=-3
divide both by -3
x=1
There are 6 possible outcomes, and 3 favourable events (3 even numbers - 2,4,6)
The probability is
Answer:
x= 16
Step-by-step explanation:
First, you want to distribute each side! (you're gonna wanna learn this because you will be having to do it for the next 3 years no joke it sucks)
7(x+2) can be distributed as 7x+14 after multiplying 7 times x and 7 times 2, and 6(x+5) can be distributed as 6x+30.
Now, you have to get the x on one side to solve for x (so like x=__).
To do this, look at the equation as of now. 7x+14=6x+30.
We can minus 14 and bring that to the right, and minus 6x and bring that to the left to separate the x's and the regular numbers.
Now we have 16=x (or x=16).
