List A contains the numbers [20,10,30], while list B contains the numbers [10,30,20,40,30]. We choose one number from list A ran

domly and one number from list B randomly. What is the chance that the number we drew from list A is larger than or equal to the number we drew from list B

Chance that the number we drew from list A is larger than or equal to the number we drew from list B is as

Number chosen is 30: p = \frac{4}{5}

Number chosen is 10: p = \frac{1}{5}

Number chosen is 20:p = \frac{2}{5}

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

We have , List A contains the numbers [20,10,30], while list B contains the numbers [10,30,20,40,30]. We choose one number from list A randomly and one number from list B randomly. Let's assume 3 cases for above problem:

Number chosen is 20:

We compare that 20 from list A is greater than or equal to 10 , 20 in list B . So probability that this number drew  from list A is larger than or equal to the number we drew from list B is p = \frac{2}{5}.

Number chosen is 10:

We compare that 10 from list A is greater than or equal to 10 in list B . So probability that this number drew  from list A is larger than or equal to the number we drew from list B is p = \frac{1}{5}.

Number chosen is 30:

We compare that 30 from list A is greater than or equal to 10 , 20, 30,30 in list B . So probability that this number drew  from list A is larger than or equal to the number we drew from list B is p = \frac{4}{5}.

∴ Chance that the number we drew from list A is larger than or equal to the number we drew from list B is as

Number chosen is 30: p = \frac{4}{5}

Number chosen is 10: p = \frac{1}{5}

Number chosen is 20:p = \frac{2}{5}

4. A random variable X has a mean of 10 and a standard deviation of 3. If 2 is added to each value of X, what will the new mean
Ede4ka [16]

Adding 2 to each value of the random variable X makes a new random variable X+2. Its mean would be

E[X+2]=E[X]+E[2]=E[X]+2

since expectation is linear, and the expected value of a constant is that constant. E[X] is the mean of X, so the new mean would be

E[X+2]=10+2=12

The variance of a random variable X is

V[X]=E[X^2]-E[X]^2

so the variance of X+2 would be

V[X+2]=E[(X+2)^2]-E[X+2]^2

We already know E[X+2]=12, so simplifying above, we get

V[X+2]=E[X^2+4X+4]-12^2

V[X+2]=E[X^2]+4E[X]+4-12^2

V[X+2]=(V[X]+E[X]^2)+4E[X]-140

Standard deviation is the square root of variance, so V[X]=3^2=9.

\implies V[X+2]=(9+10^2)+4(10)-140=9

so the standard deviation remains unchanged at 3.

NB: More generally, the variance of aX+b for a,b\in\mathbb R is

V[aX+b]=a^2V[X]+b^2V[1]

but the variance of a constant is 0. In this case, a=1, so we're left with V[X+2]=V[X], as expected.

Is 2(2x-4)+8y+10-2y an expression to be simplified or an equation to be sovled? check all that apply
Art [367]

I’m pretty sure the answers are B, C, and D because it is an expression because their is not equal signs, so that crosses out E, F, and G. But I’m not really sure, but all I can tell you is that it is most likely not E, F, and G
