Answer:

  C = (7, 6)

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem statement tells us the relation between the points is ...

  (B-A)/(C-A) = 2/7

  7(B -A) = 2(C -A) . . . . . . multiply by 7(C-A)

  7B -7A +2A = 2C . . . . . add 2A

  C = (7B -5A)/2 . . . . . . . divide by 2

  C = (7(2, -4) -5(0, -8))/2 = (14, 12)/2 . . . . . fill in the values of A and B

  C = (7, 6)

oee [108]

Answer:

x+125+x+75=180

2x+200=180

2x=-20

x= -10

-10+75= 65

-10+125=115

Find the expected value and the variance of the number of times one must throw a die until the outcome 1 has occurred 5 times.
Kazeer [188]

Answer: E(X) = 30; Var[X] = 180

Step-by-step explanation: This is a <u>Bernoulli</u> <u>Experiment</u>, i.e., the experiment is repeated a fixed number of times, the trials are independents, the only two outcomes are "success" or "failure" and the probability of success remains the same, So, to calculate <em><u>Expected</u></em> <em><u>Value</u></em>, which is the mean, in these conditions:

E(X)=\frac{r}{p}

r is number of times it is repeated

p is probability it happens

Solving:

E(X)=\frac{5}{1/6}

E(X) = 30

<u>Variance</u> is given by:

Var[X]=\frac{r(1-p)}{p^{2}}

Var[X]=\frac{5(1-1/6)}{(1/6)^{2}}

Var[X]=5.\frac{5}{6}.6^{2}

Var[X] = 180

Expected Value and Variance of the number of times one must throw a die until 1 happens 5 times are 30 and 180, respectively.
