Groups of adults are randomly selected and arranged in groups of three. The random variable x is the number in the group who say

that they would feel comfortable in a self-driving vehicle. Determine whether a probability distribution is given. If a probability distribution is given, find its mean and standard deviation. If a probability distribution is not given, identify the requirements that are not satisfied. x P(x) 0 0.354 1 0.436 2 0.187 3 0.023

Answer:

It is a discrete distribution of probability, with mean = 0.879 and SD = 0.787.

Step-by-step explanation:

With the given data, it can be said we have a discrete distribution of probability.

Calculation of the mean

$\bar{X}=\sum_{i=0}^{3} P(x_{i})*x_{i} = 0.354*0+0.436*1+0.187*2+0.023*3=0.879$

Calculation of the standard deviation

$sd=\sqrt{\sum_{i=0}^{3} P(x_{i})*(x_{i}-\bar{x})^{2} } \\\\sd= \sqrt{0.354*(0-0.879)^{2} +0.436*(1-0.879)^{2}+0.187*(2-0.879)^{2}+0.023*(3-0.879)^{2}}\\\\sd=\sqrt{0.354*0.773 +0.436*0.015+0.187*1.257+0.023*4.499}\\\\sd=\sqrt{0.619}=0.787$

Use lagrange multiplier techniques to find the local extreme values of f(x, y) = x2 − y2 − 2 subject to the constraint x2 + y2 =

dexar [7]

Given $f(x,\ y)=x^2-y^2-2$ subject to the constraint $x^2+y^2=16$

Let $g(x,\ y)=x^2+y^2$ .

The gradient vectors of $f$ and $g$ are:

$\nabla f(x,\ y)=\langle2x,-2y\rangle$ and $\nabla g(x,\ y)=\langle2x,2y\rangle$

By Lagrange's theorem, there is a number $\lambda$ , such that

$\langle2x,-2y\rangle=\lambda\langle2x,2y\rangle=\langle2\lambda x,2\lambda y\rangle$

$\lambda=\pm1$

It can be seen that $f(x,\ y)=x^2-y^2-2$ has local extreme values at the given region.

Someone help me please

Gemiola [76]

Answer:

$x=2\sqrt{6}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the Pythagorean theorem:

$a^2+b^2=c^2$

a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse. Insert the values:

$\sqrt{10}^2+\sqrt{14}^2=x^2$

Simplify exponents using the rule $\sqrt{x}^2=x$ :

$10+14=x^2$

Simplify addition:

$24=x^2\\x^2=24$

Find the square root:

$\sqrt{x^2}=\sqrt{24}\\ x=\sqrt{24}$

Simplify in radical form: Find a common factor of 24 that is a perfect square:

$\sqrt{24}=\sqrt{4*6}$

Separate:

$\sqrt{4}*\sqrt{6}$

Simplify:

$2*\sqrt{6}\\x=2\sqrt{6}$

Finito.

Answer:

{h| 0 ≤ h ≤ 60}

Step-by-step explanation:

Next time, please separate the possible answer choices with commas or semi-colons, or put them on separate lines.

The second set says it all: {h| 0 ≤ h ≤ 60}. This guy cannot work more than 60 hours per week, and h cannot be negative.
