Use order of operations for this
4x+17=23
Move the 17 to the 23
4x=23-17
Then move the 4 over leaving the x by itself
X=6/4
X=1.5
Answer:
-4/8
Step-by-step explanation:
that's what my math says
Answer:
51/4
Step-by-step explanation:
To begin with you have to understand what is the distribution of the random variable. If X represents the point where the bus breaks down. That is correct.
X~ Uniform(0,100)
Then the probability mass function is given as follows.

Now, imagine that the D represents the distance from the break down point to the nearest station. Think about this, the first service station is 20 meters away from city A, and the second station is located 70 meters away from city A then the mid point between 20 and 70 is (70+20)/2 = 45 then we can represent D as follows

Now, as we said before X represents the random variable where the bus breaks down, then we form a new random variable
,
is a random variable as well, remember that there is a theorem that says that
![E[Y] = E[D(X)] = \int\limits_{-\infty}^{\infty} D(x) f(x) \,\, dx](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=E%5BY%5D%20%3D%20E%5BD%28X%29%5D%20%3D%20%5Cint%5Climits_%7B-%5Cinfty%7D%5E%7B%5Cinfty%7D%20D%28x%29%20f%28x%29%20%5C%2C%5C%2C%20dx)
Where
is the probability mass function of X. Using the information of our problem
![E[Y] = \int\limits_{-\infty}^{\infty} D(x)f(x) dx \\= \frac{1}{100} \bigg[ \int\limits_{0}^{20} x dx +\int\limits_{20}^{45} (x-20) dx +\int\limits_{45}^{70} (70-x) dx +\int\limits_{70}^{100} (x-70) dx \bigg]\\= \frac{51}{4} = 12.75](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=E%5BY%5D%20%3D%20%5Cint%5Climits_%7B-%5Cinfty%7D%5E%7B%5Cinfty%7D%20%20D%28x%29f%28x%29%20dx%20%5C%5C%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B100%7D%20%5Cbigg%5B%20%5Cint%5Climits_%7B0%7D%5E%7B20%7D%20x%20dx%20%2B%5Cint%5Climits_%7B20%7D%5E%7B45%7D%20%28x-20%29%20dx%20%2B%5Cint%5Climits_%7B45%7D%5E%7B70%7D%20%2870-x%29%20dx%20%2B%5Cint%5Climits_%7B70%7D%5E%7B100%7D%20%28x-70%29%20dx%20%20%5Cbigg%5D%5C%5C%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B51%7D%7B4%7D%20%3D%2012.75)
Answer:
A) w=3
Step-by-step explanation:
4 x 3 = 12
This is the work when you plug in the numbers in the varible w
