Answer is : Geometric distribution

Let X be the number of lines of codes run until the first bug is detected

That is X is the random variable which is the number of trials needed to get first success. Success here is detection of bug . Success has constant probability in each trail which is p= 0.003 . That is before the first success we have    X-1 failures with probability (1-0.003)

The probability mass function of X is

P(X=x) = (1-p)x-1 p

P(X=x ) = (1-0.003)x-1 *0.003 , x= 1,2,....

This distribution is also Negative Binomial distribution  

As geometric distribution is special case of Negative Binomial Distribution

In Negative Binomial distribution , we have r success ( r\geq 1) and the random variable is the number of Bernouli trials needed to get r successes .

If we put , r= 1, that is number of success is 1

Then the given situation , that is number of lines code run(X) before the first bug follow negative binomial distribution

The probability mass function of Negative Binomial distribution is

P(X=x) = (1-p)x-r pr ,x= r , r+1 , .....

The probability mass function of X is

P(X=x, r=1 ) = (1-0.003)x-1 *0.003 , x= 1,2,....

Find the area bounded by the curve y = x1/2 + 2 the x - axis, and the lines x = 1 and x = 4?
Serggg [28]
The area is given by

\displaystyle\int_1^4(x^{1/2}+2)\,\mathrm dx=\left(\frac23x^{3/2}+2x\right)\bigg|_{x=1}^{x=4}=\dfrac{40}3-\dfrac83=\dfrac{32}3=10+\dfrac23

so the answer is B

Jill has a photograph that is 4 inches wide by 6 inches high. If she enlarges it so that the width is 12
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

The inches in height will be 18 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay so we know that the original width is 4 inches and she enlarged that to 12 inches

So what we first have to do is find out how much did the photograph "grow" per se. To find this we have to divide 12 by 4. 12 divided by 4 = 3.

So, the width of the photograph grew "times 3" inches

Now whatever you do to the width you have to do to the height. In this case, what is "3 times" 6 (which is the height). 3 times 6 = 18 inches

So in simpler words 12 divided 4 = 3 x 6 = 18 inches

The inches in height will be 18 inches.

Jill has a square with a width of 12 inches, and a height of 18 inches.

Have a wonderful day!
