Answer:

E(x) = 15 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

The random variable X (waiting time)  has a uniform distribution between the interval [0,30], because it is just as likely that you arrive in any time and then your waiting time is minimum 0 minutes and maximum 30 minutes

The expected value  of a random variable uniform is:

E(x) = \frac{a+b}{2}

      Where a and b are the interval's extremes

Thus

E(x) = \frac{0+30}{2}

E(x) = 15 minutes

Answer:

-124

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for a discriminant is:

b^{2} -4ac

So for

7x^{2} -4x +5=0

a = 7         b = - 4          c = 5

Plug values into the equation.

(-4)^{2} -4(7)(5)

16 - 140 = -124

Graph 4x2+4y2=64. What are the domain and range?
worty [1.4K]

ANSWER

EXPLANATION

The given equation is

4 {x}^{2}  + 4 {y}^{2} = 64

We divide through by 4 to obtain;

{x}^{2}  + {y}^{2} = 16

This can again be written as:

{x}^{2}  + {y}^{2} =  {4}^{2}

This is the equation of a circle centered at the origin with radius 4 units.

The graph is shown in the attachment.
