You have a ruler of length 1 and you choose a place to break it using a uniform probability distribution. Let random variable X

represent the length of the left piece of the ruler. X is distributed uniformly in [0, 1]. You take the left piece of the ruler and once again choose a place to break it using a uniform probability distribution. Let random variable Y be the length of the left piece from the second break. (a) Find the conditional expectation of Y given X, E(Y\X). (b) Find the unconditional expectation of Y. One way to do this is to apply the law of iterated expectation which states that E(Y) = E(E(Y\X)). The inner expectation is the conditional expectation computed above, which is a function of X. The outer expectation finds the expected value of this function. (c) Compute E(XY). This means that E(XY\X) = XE(Y\X) (d) Using the previous results, compute cov(X, Y).

Find the mean median and mode of the refrigerator prices shown in the table. Witch measurement might be misleading to describing
ioda

Answer:

We need the picture.

Step-by-step explanation:

Unless the data is skewed (which means there is outliers) then you use mean as the most accurate. If you have a skewed graph or outliers then mean would mislead you to believe prices are higher (if you have high outliers) or low (if you have low outliers). Median is typically very accurate. Mode may be inaccurate if you have a lot of prices in a really high or low value.

Tim dug a hole that was 16 1/2 inches deep.He left a pile of dirt next to the hole that was 8 3/4 inches high.Show how you could
Viktor [21]

Answer:

14 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of the hole = 16(½) inches

Length of the dirt = 8(¾)inches

The distance between the top of the pile to the bottom of the hole = ?

Since the dirt is beside the hole and not inside the hole, we can find it's length using addition.

Distance from the top to the bottom = length of dirt + length of the hole

Length of dirt = 8×¾ = 6 inches

Length of the hole = 16 × ½ = 8 inches

Distance from the top of the dirt to the bottom of the hole = (6 + 8) inches

Distance from the top of the dirt to the bottom of the hole = 14 inches

Note: the only way we can use subtraction here is if the hole was filled with dirt, what's the distance that's left

Distance left = length of hole - length of dirt

Distance left = 8 - 6 = 2 inches .

But what the question requested was the distance from the top of the dirt to the bottom of the hole

PLEASE I’LL GIVE BRAINLIEST !!!!Complete the mapping of the vertices of ADEF.
alisha [4.7K]

D'=(-4,2)
E'=(-1,1)
F'=(1,5)

Hope it heled.

Please note this rotation just allows you to turn (x,y) to (y,x)

Here are the rotation rules: 90° clockwise rotation: (x,y) becomes (y,-x) 90° counterclockwise rotation: (x,y) becomes (-y,x) 180° clockwise and counterclockwise rotation: (x, y) becomes (-x,-y)
