What is the constant of proportionality in the equation y =2.5x

2.5

Answer: 2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the constant of proportionality is the ratio between two directly proportional quantities.

The equation of direct variation between two quantities x and y is given by :-

y=kx, where k is the constant of proportionality,

The given equation : - y =2.5xy

When we compare to the general direct variation equation , we get

k=2.5

hence, the constant of proportionality in the equation  2.5

Suppose that two teams play a series of games that ends when one of them has won ???? games. Also suppose that each game played
Musya8 [376]

Answer:

(a) E(X) = -2p² + 2p + 2; d²/dp² E(X) at p = 1/2 is less than 0

(b) 6p⁴ - 12p³ + 3p² + 3p + 3; d²/dp² E(X) at p = 1/2 is less than 0

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) when i = 2, the expected number of played games will be:

E(X) = 2[p² + (1-p)²] + 3[2p² (1-p) + 2p(1-p)²] = 2[p²+1-2p+p²] + 3[2p²-2p³+2p(1-2p+p²)] = 2[2p²-2p+1] + 3[2p² - 2p³+2p-4p²+2p³] =  4p²-4p+2-6p²+6p = -2p²+2p+2.

If p = 1/2, then:

d²/dp² E(X) = d/dp (-4p + 2) = -4 which is less than 0. Therefore, the E(X) is maximized.

(b) when i = 3;

E(X) = 3[p³ + (1-p)³] + 4[3p³(1-p) + 3p(1-p)³] + 5[6p³(1-p)² + 6p²(1-p)³]

Simplification and rearrangement lead to:

E(X) = 6p⁴-12p³+3p²+3p+3

if p = 1/2, then:

d²/dp² E(X) at p = 1/2 = d/dp (24p³-36p²+6p+3) = 72p²-72p+6 = 72(1/2)² - 72(1/2) +6 = 18 - 36 +8 = -10

Therefore, E(X) is maximized.
