The following gambling game has been proposed, which a player must pay to play. First, a value U is chosen uniformly from the se

t [0, 10]. Next, a number is chosen according to a Poisson random variable with a parameter U. Letting X be the number chosen, the player receives $X. Find E[X], which is the amount a player should pay to make this a fair game HINT: Use the Law of Total Probability for Expectations, E[X]

Answer:

The player should be required to pay $5 to make this a fair game.

Step-by-step explanation:

U ~ Uniform(0, 10)

E[U] = (0 + 10)/2

         = 5

X | U ~ Poisson(U)

E[X | U] = U

By law of total probability for expectations,

E[X] = E[E[X|U]] = E[U] = $5

Therefore the player should be required to pay $5 to make this a fair game.

Answer:

This number "four" is the maximum possible number of positive zeroes (that is, all the positive x-intercepts) for the polynomial f (x) = x 5 – x 4 + 3x 3 + 9x 2 – x + 5. Affiliate However, some of the roots may be generated by the Quadratic Formula , and these pairs of roots may be complex and thus not graphable as x -intercepts.

can calculate and graph the roots (x-intercepts), signs, Local Maxima and Minima, Increasing and Decreasing Intervals, Points of Inflection and Concave Up/Down intervals.
