Denote by X_{(n)} the maximum order statistic, with X_{(n)}=\max\{X_1,\ldots,X_n\}, and similarly denote by X_{(1)} the minimum order statistic. Then the CDF for X_{(n)} is

F_{X_{(n)}}(x)=\mathbb P(X_{(n)}\le x)

In order for there to be some x that exceeds the value of X_{(n)}, it must be true that x exceeds the value of all the X_i, so the above is equivalent to the joint probability


F_{X_{(n)}}(x)=\mathbb P(X_1\le x,\ldots,X_n\le x)

and since the X_i are i.i.d., we have

F_{X_{(n)}}(x)=\mathbb P(X_1\le x)\cdots\mathbb P(X_n\le x)=\mathbb P(X_1\le x)^n
\implies F_{X_{(n)}}(x)=F_X(x)^n

where X\sim\mathrm{Unif}(0,1). We have


F_X(x)=\begin{cases}0&\text{for }x1\end{cases}

and so

F_{X_{(n)}}(x)=\begin{cases}0&\text{for }x1\end{cases}
\implies f_{X_{(n)}}(x)=\begin{cases}nx^{n-1}&\text{for }0
\implies\mathbb E[X_{(n)}]=\displaystyle\int_0^1xnx^{n-1}\,\mathrm dx=n\int_0^1x^n\,\mathrm dx=\frac n{n+1}

Using similar reasoning, we can find the CDF for X_{(1)}. We have

F_{X_{(1)}}(x)=\mathbb P(X_{(1)}\le x)=1-\mathbb P(X_{(1)}>x)
F_{X_{(1)}}(x)=1-\mathbb P(X_1>x,\ldots,X_n>x)=1-\mathbb P(X_1>x)^n
F_{X_{(1)}}(x)=1-(1-\mathbb P(X\le x))^n=1-(1-F_X(x))^n
\implies F_{X_{(1)}}(x)=\begin{cases}0&\text{for }x1\end{cases}
\implies f_{X_{(1)}}(x)=\begin{cases}n(1-x)^{n-1}&\text{for }0
\implies\mathbb E[X_{(1)}]=\displaystyle\int_0^1xn(1-x)^{n-1}\,\mathrm dx=\frac1{n+1}

A car's velocity changes at a rate of 36 miles per hour in 0.5 hour.
kotegsom [21]

Answer:

72

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the acceleration we need first to defined it, so:

acceleration=((final velocity)-(initial velocity))/time interval

a=(vf-vi)/dt

But (vf-vi) actually represents the velocity change, so (vf-vi)/dt represents the velocity change rate. This means that in our case:

a=(36miles/hour)/(0.5hours)

a=72miles/hour^2

In conclusion the acceleration is a=72miles/hour^2, without units just 72.

If a polygon is a square, then a polygon is a quadrilateral The truth value: The converse: The truth value: The inverse: The tru
Simora [160]

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

Given that if a polygon is a square, then a polygon is a quadrilateral, we find the converse, inverse and contrapositive of this implicational statement. The hypothesis is the causative statement and the conclusion is the resultant effect

The converse of this statement is the reverse of its statements hence:

If a polygon is a quadrilateral then a polygon is a square

The inverse of this statement is the negation of the statements hence :

If a polygon is not a square then a polygon is not a quadrilateral

The contrapositive of the statement is the interchange of the hypothesis and conclusion of the inverse statement hence:

If a polygon is not a quadrilateral then a polygon is not a square
