Answer:

  1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number. The given relation is ...

  x² +(x+3)² = 17

  2x² +6x +9 = 17 . . . . simplify

  x² +3x -4 = 0 . . . . . . subtract 17 and divide by 2

  (x +4)(x -1) = 0 . . . . . factor

The solutions make these factors zero: -4 and +1. The positive solution is 1.

The number is 1.

. The sandwich shop offers 8 different sandwiches. Jamey likes them all equally. He picks one randomly each day for lunch. Durin
Margarita [4]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information:

A sandwich shop offers eight types of sandwiches, and Jamey likes all of them equally.

The probability that Jamey picks any one of them is 1/8

Suppose

X represents the number of times he chooses salami

Y represents the number of times he chooses falafel

Z represents the number of times he chooses veggie

Then  X+Y+Z ≤ 5 and;

5-X-Y-Z represents the no. of time he chooses the remaining

8 - 3 = 5 sandwiches

However, the objective is to determine the P[X=x,Y=y,Z=z] such that 0≤x,y,z≤5

So, since he chooses x no. of salami sandwiches with probability (1/8)x

and y number of falafel with probability (1/8)y

and for z (1/8)z

Therefore, the remaining sandwiches are chosen with probability \dfrac{5}{8} (5-x-y-z)

So. these x days, y days and z days can be arranged within five days in

= \dfrac{5!}{x!y!z!(5-x-y-z)!}

Thus;

P[X=x,Y=y,Z=z]=  \dfrac{5!}{x!y!z!(5-x-y-z)}  \times \dfrac{1}{8}x*\dfrac{1}{8}y* \dfrac{1}{8}z* \dfrac{5}{8}(5-x-y-z)

since 0 ≤ x, y, z ≤ 5 and x + y + z ≤ 5.

The distribution is said to be Multinomial distribution.
