Answer:

$0.558

Step-by-step explanation:

The expected value is the sum of the value of each outcome times the chance that it happens. In this case, there are two outcomes:

  1. Win $31 million
  2. Win $0

Then our expected value can be calculated as:

EV=(31,000,000)(0.000000018)+(0)(1-0.000000018)=0.558

Find the two smallest possible solutions to part 1a​
bixtya [17]
<h3>Answer: A. 5/12, 25/12</h3>

============================

Work Shown:

12*sin(2pi/5*x)+10 = 16

12*sin(2pi/5*x) = 16-10

12*sin(2pi/5*x) = 6

sin(2pi/5*x) = 6/12

sin(2pi/5*x) = 0.5

2pi/5*x = arcsin(0.5)

2pi/5*x = pi/6+2pi*n or 2pi/5*x = 5pi/6+2pi*n

2/5*x = 1/6+2*n or 2/5*x = 5/6+2*n

x = (5/2)*(1/6+2*n) or x = (5/2)*(5/6+2*n)

x = 5/12+5n or x = 25/12+5n

these equations form the set of all solutions. The n is any integer.

--------

The two smallest positive solutions occur when n = 0, so,

x = 5/12+5n or x = 25/12+5n

x = 5/12+5*0 or x = 25/12+5*0

x = 5/12 or x = 25/12

--------

Plugging either x value into the expression 12*sin(2pi/5*x)+10 should yield 16, which would confirm the two answers.

PLEASE HELP ASAP!!! CORRECT ANSWER ONLY PLEASE!!!
ehidna [41]

Answer:  1) 0.10

               2) 0.60

               3) 0.20

               4) 0.10

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

The total frequency is 20+120+40+20 = 200.  This means they ran the experiment 200 times.  The probability distribution is calculated by the satisfactory number of outcomes (frequency) divided by the total number of experiments/outcomes (total frequency):

\begin{array}{c|c||lc}\underline{x}&\underline{f}&\underline{f\div 200}&\underline{\text{Probability Distribution}}\\1&20&20\div200=&0.10\\2&120&120\div 200=&0.60\\3&40&40\div 200=&0.20\\4&20&20\div 200=&0.10\end{array}\right]

An article presents voltage measurements for a sample of 66 industrial networks in Estonia. Assume the rated voltage for these n
kramer

Answer:

We accept the null hypothesis and conclude that voltage for these networks is 232 V.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:  

Population mean, μ = 232 V

Sample mean, \bar{x} = 231.5 V

Sample size, n = 66

Sample standard deviation, s = 2.19 V

Alpha, α = 0.05

First, we design the null and the alternate hypothesis

H_{0}: \mu = 232\\H_A: \mu \neq 232

We use Two-tailed t test to perform this hypothesis.

Formula:

t_{stat} = \displaystyle\frac{\bar{x} - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n-1}} } Putting all the values, we have

t_{stat} = \displaystyle\frac{231.5- 232}{\frac{2.19}{\sqrt{66}} } = -1.8548

Now,

t_{critical} \text{ at 0.05 level of significance, 9 degree of freedom } = \pm 1.9971

Since,              

|t_{stat}| > |t_{critical}|

We accept the null hypothesis and conclude that voltage for these networks is 232 V.

Graph the equation F(x)=(1/3)^x
scoray [572]

The value of a=9,b=3 and c=1

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph shown is for function f(x)

The given function is f(x)=(\frac{1}{3}) ^{x}

Table says,

X      Y

-2      a

1        b

0       c

1     (1/3)

2    (1/9)

To find value of a:

From table, for output value a, input value, x=(-2)

we can write f(-2)=a

Therefore,

f(x)=(\frac{1}{3}) ^{x}

f(-2)=(\frac{1}{3}) ^{(-2)}

a=(\frac{1}{3^{(-2)}})

a=3^{(2)}

a=9

To find value of b:

From table, for output value a, input value, x=(-1)

we can write f(-1)=b

Therefore,

f(x)=(\frac{1}{3}) ^{x}

f(-1)=(\frac{1}{3}) ^{(-1)}

b=(\frac{1}{3^{(-1)}})

b=3^{(1)}

b=3

To find value of c:

From table, for output value a, input value, x=(0)

we can write f(0)=c

Therefore,

f(x)=(\frac{1}{3}) ^{x}

f(0)=(\frac{1}{3}) ^{(0)}

c=(\frac{1}{3^{(0)}})

c=1
