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

Part 1. Using the two functions listed below, insert numbers in place of the letters a, b, c, and d so that f(x) and g(x) are in
dem82 [27]

There is no b unfortunately

Find inverse of x+a

  • x+a=y

interchAnge

  • y+a=x
  • y=x-a

Inverse is

  • f^{-1}x=x-a

Now

  • x-a=cx-d
  • x-cx=a-d
  • x(1-c)=a-d
  • x=a-d/1-c

So

You can have any number according to this but

  • c must not be 1
  • a and d must not be equal .
  • All three should belongs to integers set

Note:-

As there is no b given in question (May be missed in typing) Part-2 's equation can't be executed and part 3 also
