g A random variable X has a probability density function fX(x) = ? 0.5 sin(x) , 0 ≤ x ≤ π 0 , otherwise Another random variable

Y is defined as Y = X + (X − π/2)3 . (a) What are the mean (expected value), variance and standard deviation of X? (b) Plot the function Y = Y (X). What are the minimum and maximum possible values of Y ? (c) From the plot, using only graphical thinking and no equations, what is the shape of the probability density function of Y (i.e., fY (y))? Specifically, how is the shape compared to that of fX(x)? (d) From the plot, using only graphical thinking and no equations, estimate (guess) the expected value and standard deviation of Y (i.e., µY and σY ).

f_X(x)=\begin{cases}0.5\sin x&\text{for }0\le x\le\pi\\0&\text{otherwise}\end{cases}

a. The mean of X is

E[X]=\displaystyle\int_{-\infty}^\infty xf_X(x)\,\mathrm dx=\frac12\int_0^\pi x\sin x\,\mathrm dx=\frac\pi2

Recall that the variance of a random variable X is

\mathrm{Var}[X]=E[(X-E[X])^2]=E[X^2]-E[X]^2

We have

E[X^2]=\displaystyle\int_{-\infty}^\infty x^2f_X(x)\,\mathrm dx=\frac12\int_0^\pi x^2\sin x\,\mathrm dx=\frac{\pi^2-4}2

so that

\mathrm{Var}[X]=\dfrac{\pi^2-4}2-\dfrac{\pi^2}4=\dfrac{\pi^2-8}4

and the standard deviation is

\sqrt{\mathrm{Var}[X]}=\dfrac{\sqrt{\pi^2-8}}2

b.

X=0\implies Y=-\dfrac{\pi^3}8

X=\pi\implies Y=\pi+\dfrac{\pi^3}8

Solve for x open image to see
Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

x=15

Step-by-step explanation:

Since both lines are parallel, and one line goes through them, angle (3x+2) and 47 are congruent

3x+2=47

3x=45

x=15

Please help, When do you need to approximate an irrational number with a rational value? Explain your understanding and give an
disa [49]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  in any numerical computation; numerical values can only be rational numbers

Step-by-step explanation:

Any time a number is written down as a numerical value, it is a rational number. The numerical values we give to π or e or any root, logarithm, trig function, and polynomial solution are, of necessity, rational approximations to the true value. An "exact" value for an irrational number cannot be written down, so it must be approximated any time its numerical value is needed.

Solve the equation 3p (3p - 8) - 8 = 9p ( p - 3 + 4
pentagon [3]

Answer:

p= \frac{-8}{33}

Explanation:

Given:

3p (3p - 8) - 8 = 9p ( p - 3 + 4)

To Find:

Value of p=?

Solution:

Before solving this equation,  we will use the method of BODMAS which states that we first solve the Bracket then Off then Division then Multiplier then addition and at last subtraction.  

Now we will solve the both right and left hand side of the equation  

3p (3p - 8) - 8 = 9p ( p - 3 + 4)

9p^2-24p-8=9p^2+9p

Gruoping the like terms we get,

9p^2-9p^2-24p-9p=8

After solving the both right hand and left hand side of the equation  

-33p=8

And we get the value of p as  

p= \frac{-8}{33}
