The sum of the probabilities in a probability distribution is always 1.
A probability distribution is a collection of probabilities that defines the likelihood of observing all of the various outcomes of an event or experiment. Based on this definition, a probability distribution has two important properties that are always true:
Each probability in the distribution must be of a value between 0 and 1.
The sum of all the probabilities in the distribution must be equal to 1.
An example: You could define a probability distribution for the observation for the number displayed by a single roll of a die. The probability that the die with show a "1" is
1
6
.
That's because there are six possible outcomes, and only one of those outcomes is a "1". Lets label the probabilities of all the possible outcomes for the single die.
Roll a "1": Probability is
1
6

Roll a "2": Probability is
1
6

Roll a "3": Probability is
1
6

Roll a "4": Probability is
1
6

Roll a "5": Probability is
1

Roll a "6": Probability is
1

Each probability is between 0 and 1, so the first property of a probability distribution holds true. And the sum of all the probabilities:

so the second property of a probability distribution holds true.

Luba_88 [7]
Adjusted balance = 622.82 - 45.45 + 78.91 + 16.36 = 672.64
Adjused balance method finance charges = 672.64 x 0.1195/12 = 6.70

Average daily balance = ((622.82 x 3) + (577.37 x 6) + (656.28 x 15) + 672.64 x 6)) / 30 = (1868.46 + 3464.22 + 9844.20 + 4035.84) / 30 = 640.42
Daily balance method finance charges = 640.42 x 0.1195/12 = 6.38

Customers at the Palace Pro Shop receive a 10% discount if they are members. All customers must pay 7% in sales tax. The functio
11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

The total amount a member pays for an item with a regular price of x dollars is T (x) = 0.963<em>x</em>.

Step-by-step explanation:

Key points:

  • Discount is subtracted from the regular price of an item.
  • Sales tax is added to the regular price of an item.

It is provided that the customers receive a 10% discount if they are members and all customers must pay 7% in sales tax.

Two functions are provided are:

f (x) = 0.90<em>x </em>; the price of an item after the 10% member discount

g (x) = 1.07<em>x </em>; the total amount customers pay for a purchase after sales tax is applied.

Compute the total amount a member pays for an item with a regular price of x dollars as follows:

T (x) = Discount × Sales Tax

       = 0.90 × 1.07 × <em>x</em>

       = 0.963<em>x</em>.

Thus, the total amount a member pays for an item with a regular price of x dollars is T (x) = 0.963<em>x</em>.

A cylinder has a volume of 550 cubic feet. If the height of the cylinder is 15 feet, what is the radius of the cylinder? Use 3.1
Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

r = 3.42

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation for volume is V = pi r^2 h

550 = 3.14 r^2 15

36 2/3 = 3.14 r ^2

11.6772824 = r^2

3.41720389 = r

r = 3.42
