11. Let X denote the amount of time a book on two-hour reserve is actually checked out, and suppose the cdf is F(x) 5 5 0 x , 0
NISA [10]

Question not properly presented

Let X denote the amount of time a book on two-hour reserve is actually checked out, and suppose the cdf is F(x)

0 ------ x<0

x²/25 ---- 0 ≤ x ≤ 5

1 ----- 5 ≤ x

Use the cdf to obtain the following.

(a) Calculate P(X ≤ 4).

(b) Calculate P(3.5 ≤ X ≤ 4).

(c) Calculate P(X > 4.5)

(d) What is the median checkout duration, μ?

e. Obtain the density function f (x).

f. Calculate E(X).

Answer:

a. P(X ≤ 4) = 16/25

b. P(3.5 ≤ X ≤ 4) = 3.75/25

c. P(4.5 ≤ X ≤ 5) = 4.75/25

d. μ = 3.5

e. f(x) = 2x/25 for 0≤x≤2/5

f. E(x) = 16/9375

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Calculate P(X ≤ 4).

Given that the cdf, F(x) = x²/25 for 0 ≤ x ≤ 5

So, we have

P(X ≤ 4) = F(x) {0,4}

P(X ≤ 4) = x²/25 {0,4}

P(X ≤ 4) = 4²/25

P(X ≤ 4) = 16/25

b. Calculate P(3.5 ≤ X ≤ 4).

Given that the cdf, F(x) = x²/25 for 0 ≤ x ≤ 5

So, we have

P(3.5 ≤ X ≤ 4) = F(x) {3.5,4}

P(3.5 ≤ X ≤ 4) = x²/25 {3.5,4}

P(3.5 ≤ X ≤ 4) = 4²/25 - 3.5²/25

P(3.5 ≤ X ≤ 4) = 16/25 - 12.25/25

P(3.5 ≤ X ≤ 4) = 3.75/25

(c) Calculate P(X > 4.5).

Given that the cdf, F(x) = x²/25 for 0 ≤ x ≤ 5

So, we have

P(4.5 ≤ X ≤ 5) = F(x) {4.5,5}

P(4.5 ≤ X ≤ 5) = x²/25 {4.5,5}

P(4.5 ≤ X ≤ 5)) = 5²/25 - 4.5²/25

P(4.5 ≤ X ≤ 5) = 25/25 - 20.25/25

P(4.5 ≤ X ≤ 5) = 4.75/25

(d) What is the median checkout duration, μ?

Median is calculated as follows;

∫f(x) dx {-∝,μ} = ½

This implies

F(x) {-∝,μ} = ½

where F(x) = x²/25 for 0 ≤ x ≤ 5

F(x) {-∝,μ} = ½ becomes

x²/25 {0,μ} = ½

μ² = ½ * 25

μ² = 12.5

μ = √12.5

μ = 3.5

e. Calculating density function f (x).

If F(x) = ∫f(x) dx

Then f(x) = d/dx (F(x))

where F(x) = x²/25 for 0 ≤ x ≤ 5

f(x) = d/dx(x²/25)

f(x) = 2x/25

When

F(x) = 0, f(x) = 2(0)/25 = 0

When

F(x) = 5, f(x) = 2(5)/25 = 2/5

f(x) = 2x/25 for 0≤x≤2/5

f. Calculating E(X).

E(x) = ∫xf(x) dx, 0,2/5

E(x) = ∫x * 2x/25 dx, 0,2/5

E(x) = 2∫x ²/25 dx, 0,2/5

E(x) = 2x³/75 , 0,2/5

E(x) = 2(2/5)³/75

E(x) = 16/9375

25 — 3x = 40<br> x =<br><br> Please answer quick thanks
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

x=-5

Step-by-step explanation:

-3x+25=40. You want to isolate x so you have to subtract 25 from both sides. -3x=15. We then want x to be isolated so we have to divide both sides by -3 to make x by itself. x=-5. Therefore, x=-5.

When two fractions are between 0 &amp; 1 half how do you know which fraction is greater explaina
oksian1 [2.3K]
 Example- 1/3 or 1/5, which is larger? If you divide 1 by 3 the answer is 0.33 If you divide 1 by 5 it's 0.2. Since 0.33(1/3) is larger that would be the answer.
sorry if I make this confusing.
basically divide the top by the bottom to see which is larger. Then compare the fractions.
