Let's say the first truck weighs x tons

Then, the weight of 2nd truck = x+2 tons

The weight of 3rd truck = (x + 2) + 2 = x+4 tons

The weight of 4th truck = (x + 4) + 2 = x+6 tons

Total weight of 4 trucks:

x + (x+2) + (x+4) + (x+6) = 32

 

which can be solved easily to give x = 5

Answer:

E(Y) = $0.5

Var(Y)  = 14.25

you should pay the same amount  $0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

E(Y) =  = Σ(YP)

P = probability of each outcomes.

Var(Y) = ΣY^{2}p − (μ x μ)

E(Y) = (2 x 0.25) +(6 x 0.25) + (0.5 x (-3)) = $0.5

Var(Y) = (2^{2}\\x 0.25) + (6^{2} x 0.25) +(-3^{2} x 0.5) - (0.5^{2})

       = 14.5 - 0.25

Var(Y)  = 14.25

for the difference between the payoff and cost of playing to have mean 0, you should pay the same amount  $0.5

Question is shown below.
Andrei [34K]

ANSWER

D. 4 minutes 40 seconds

EXPLANATION

The given data set showing the number of seconds of each song the playlist is:

283,204,198,229,173,230,168,236,215,204

Let the length of the 11th song be x.

Because he wants the mean to be 3 minutes 40 seconds, which is equal to 220 seconds, we write and solve the following equation for x.

\frac{283 + 204 + 198 + 229 + 173 + 230 + 168 + 236 + 215 + 204 + x}{11}  = 220

\frac{2140 + x}{11}  = 220

2140 + x = 2420

x = 2420 - 2140

x = 280

We convert 280 seconds to minutes.

\frac{280}{60}  = 4 \frac{2}{3}  = 4mins : 40 sec

The correct choice is D
