A box contains five slips of paper, marked $1, $1, $10, $25, and $25. The winner of a contest selects two slips of paper at rand

om and then gets the larger of the dollar amounts on the two slips. Define a random variable w by w = amount awarded. Determine the probability distribution of w. (Hint: Think of the slips as numbered 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5, so that an outcome of the experiment consists of two of these numbers.)

Answer:

w = $1 or $10 or $25

Probability distribution of w = ($1,$1  $1,$1  $1,$10  $1,$25  $1,$25  $1,$1  $1,$1  $1,$10  $1,$25  $1,$25  $10,$1  $10,$1  $10,$10  $10,$25  $10,$25  $25,$1  $25,$1  $25,$10  $25,$25  $25,$25  $25,$1  $25,$1  $25,$10  $25,$25  $25,$25)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the winner gets the larger amount of the two slips picked, random variable 'w' which is the amount awarded could be $1 or $10 or $25.

The probability distribution of 'w' is the values that the statistic takes on. Which could be: $1,$1  $1,$1  $1,$10  $1,$25  $1,$25  $1,$1  $1,$1  $1,$10  $1,$25  $1,$25  $10,$1  $10,$1  $10,$10  $10,$25  $10,$25  $25,$1  $25,$1  $25,$10  $25,$25  $25,$25  $25,$1  $25,$1  $25,$10  $25,$25  $25,$25

If f(x)=x²+3x+5, what is f(3+h)?
Simora [160]
You have to substitute 3+h for x, then work out the equation.

(3+h)^2 + 3(3+h) + 5 = 9 + 6h + h^2 + 9 + 3h + 5 =

h^2 + 9h + 23

Use the information giving in the figure to find the length FH. If applicable, round your answer to the nearest whole number.
Dimas [21]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  FH = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

ΔGHE is a 5-12-13 triangle.

ΔEHF is a 3-4-5 triangle with a scale factor of 4, so side FH is 4·4 = 16 units.

_____

(3, 4, 5), (5, 12, 13), (7, 24, 25), (8, 15, 17) are all commonly used Pythagorean triples. The first two on the list are used in these triangles.

If you like, you can work out the numbers using the Pythagorean theorem, which tells you the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides.

For ΔEHG, that is ...

  GE² = EH² + HG²

  13² = EH² + 5²

  EH² = 13² -5² = 169 -25 = 144

And for ΔEHF, ...

  FE² = EH² +HF²

  20² = 144 + HF²

  400 -144 = HF² = 256

  HF = √256 = 16

The length of side FH is 16 units.
