The table below represents the displacement of a bird from its nest as a function of time: time (hours) x displacement from nest

(miles) y 0 12 1 20 2 28 3 36 4 44 part
a.what is the y-intercept of the function, and what does this tell you about the bird? part
b.calculate the average rate of change of the function represented by the table between x = 1 to x = 3 hours, and tell what the average rate represents. part
c.what would be the domain of the function if the bird continued to fly at this rate until it traveled 172 miles from the nest?

Answer: See each part below.

Part A: The y-intercept is the first value, or 12. That means that they bird is 12 miles from its nest when the time started.

Part B: The average rate of change is the slope. From 1 to 3 hours, the bird went from 20 to 36 or 16 miles. 16 miles in 2 hours is the same as 8 miles in 1 hour.

Part C: To find the extent of the domain, write and solve the following equation for 172 miles.
172 = 8x + 12
160 = 8x 
20 = x

The domain will go up to 20 hours.

What is the converse of the following conditional statement? If x = –10, then x2 = 100
tangare [24]
The converse would be If x² = 100 then x = -10

So essentially if the conditional statement is p → q then the converse is q → p (In essence, the converse of a conditional statement  is formed by interchanging the hypothesis and the conclusion.)

We have two fair three-sided dice, indexed by i = 1, 2. Each die has sides labeled 1, 2, and 3. We roll the two dice independent
Bogdan [553]

Answer:

(a) P(X = 0) = 1/3

(b) P(X = 1) = 2/9

(c) P(X = −2) = 1/9

(d) P(X = 3) = 0

(a) P(Y = 0) = 0

(b) P(Y = 1) = 1/3

(c) P(Y = 2) = 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

- Two 3-sided fair die.

- Random Variable X_1 denotes the number you get for rolling 1st die.

- Random Variable X_2 denotes the number you get for rolling 2nd die.

- Random Variable X = X_2 - X_1.

Solution:

- First we will develop a probability distribution of X such that it is defined by the difference of second and first roll of die.

- Possible outcomes of X : { - 2 , -1 , 0 ,1 , 2 }

- The corresponding probabilities for each outcome are:

                  ( X = -2 ):  { X_2 = 1 , X_1 = 3 }

                  P ( X = -2 ):  P ( X_2 = 1 ) * P ( X_1 = 3 )

                                 :  ( 1 / 3 ) * ( 1 / 3 )

                                 : ( 1 / 9 )

   

                  ( X = -1 ):  { X_2 = 1 , X_1 = 2 } + { X_2 = 2 , X_1 = 3 }

                 P ( X = -1 ):  P ( X_2 = 1 ) * P ( X_1 = 3 ) + P ( X_2 = 2 ) * P ( X_1 = 3)

                                 :  ( 1 / 3 ) * ( 1 / 3 ) + ( 1 / 3 ) * ( 1 / 3 )

                                 : ( 2 / 9 )

         

       ( X = 0 ):  { X_2 = 1 , X_1 = 1 } + { X_2 = 2 , X_1 = 2 } +  { X_2 = 3 , X_1 = 3 }

       P ( X = -1 ):P ( X_2 = 1 )*P ( X_1 = 1 )+P( X_2 = 2 )*P ( X_1 = 2)+P( X_2 = 3 )*P ( X_1 = 3)

                                 :  ( 1 / 3 ) * ( 1 / 3 ) + ( 1 / 3 ) * ( 1 / 3 ) + ( 1 / 3 ) * ( 1 / 3 )

                                 : ( 3 / 9 ) = ( 1 / 3 )

       

                    ( X = 1 ):  { X_2 = 2 , X_1 = 1 } + { X_2 = 3 , X_1 = 2 }

                 P ( X = 1 ):  P ( X_2 = 2 ) * P ( X_1 = 1 ) + P ( X_2 = 3 ) * P ( X_1 = 2)

                                 :  ( 1 / 3 ) * ( 1 / 3 ) + ( 1 / 3 ) * ( 1 / 3 )

                                 : ( 2 / 9 )

                    ( X = 2 ):  { X_2 = 1 , X_1 = 3 }

                  P ( X = 2 ):  P ( X_2 = 3 ) * P ( X_1 = 1 )

                                    :  ( 1 / 3 ) * ( 1 / 3 )

                                    : ( 1 / 9 )                  

- The distribution Y = X_2,

                          P(Y=0) = 0

                          P(Y=1) =  1/3

                          P(Y=2) = 1/ 3

- The probability for each number of 3 sided die is same = 1 / 3.
