2.63 According to Consumer Digest (July/August 1996), the probable location of personal computers (PC) in the home is as follows

: Adult bedroom: 0.03 Child bedroom: 0.15 Other bedroom: 0.14 Office or den: 0.40 Other rooms: 0.28 (a) What is the probability that a PC is in a bedroom? (b) What is the probability that it is not in a bedroom? (c) Suppose a household is selected at random from households with a PC; in what room would you expect to find a PC?

Answer:

a) 0.32

b) 0.68

c) office or den

Step-by-step explanation:

Locations             Probabilities

Adult bedroom    0.03

Child bedroom    0.15

Other bedroom   0.14

Office or den       0.40

Other rooms        0.28

a)

P(PC in bedroom)= P(PC in adult bedroom)+ P(PC in child bedroom)+ P(PC in other bedroom)

P(PC in bedroom)= 0.03+0.15+ 0.14

P(PC in bedroom)= 0.32.

Thus, the probability that a PC is in a bedroom is 0.32.

b)

P(PC is not in bedroom)= P(PC in Office or den)+ P(PC in Other rooms)

P(PC is not in bedroom)= 0.40+0.28

P(PC is not in bedroom)= 0.68.

Thus, the probability that a PC is not in a bedroom is 0.68.

c)

When a household is selected at random from households with a PC we would expect to find a PC in a room which has a greater probability of having PC.

The greater probability of room having a PC is of Office or den room with probability 0.40. So, when a household is selected at random from households with a PC we would expect to find a PC in a Office or den room.

John runs to the market and comes back in 15 minutes. His speed on the way to the market is 5m/s and his speed on the way back i
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

The distance to the market is 2000 m

Step-by-step explanation:

∵ John runs to the market and comes back in 15 minutes

→ Change the min. to the sec. because the unit of his speed is m/s

∵ 1 minute = 60 seconds

∴ 15 minutes = 15 × 60 = 900 seconds

→ Assume that t1 is his time to the market and t2 is his time from

  the market

∵  t1 + t2 = 15 minutes

∴ t1 + t2 = 900 ⇒ (1)

→ Assume that the distance to the market is d

∵ His speed on the way to the market is 5m/s

∵ Time = Distance ÷ Speed

∴ t1 = d ÷ 5 ⇒ (1 ÷ 5 = 0.2)

∴ t1 = 0.2d ⇒ (2)

∵ His speed on the way back is 4m/s

∴ t2 = d ÷ 4 ⇒ (1 ÷ 4 = 0.25)

∴ t2 = 0.25d ⇒ (3)

→ Substitute (2) and (3) in (1)

∵ 0.2d + 0.25d = 900

∴ 0.45d = 900

→ Divide both sides by 0.45

∴ d = 2000 m

∴ The distance to the market = 2000 m

A painting crew reported that a job is 3/5 completed. What fraction of the job remains to be done?
Lunna [17]

Answer:

2/5

Step-by-step explanation:

5/5 = full job

3/5  = done

full job - done =  remaining

5/5 job - 3/5 job

= 2/5 (remaining)

Evaluate the line integral, where c is the given curve. C xeyz ds, c is the line segment from (0, 0, 0) to (2, 3, 4)
Arada [10]

The value of line integral is, 73038 if the c is the given curve. C xeyz ds, c is the line segment from (0, 0, 0) to (2, 3, 4)

<h3>What is integration?</h3>

It is defined as the mathematical calculation by which we can sum up all the smaller parts into a unit.

The parametric equations for the line segment from (0, 0, 0) to (2, 3, 4)

x(t) = (1-t)0 + t×2 = 2t  

y(t) = (1-t)0 + t×3 = 3t

z(t) = (1-t)0 + t×4 = 4t

Finding its derivative;

x'(t) = 2

y'(t) = 3

z'(t) = 4

The line integral is given by:

\rm \int\limits_C {xe^{yz}} \, ds = \int\limits^1_0 {2te^{12t^2}} \, \sqrt{2^2+3^2+4^2} dt

 

\rm ds = \sqrt{2^2+3^2+4^2} dt

After solving the integration over the limit 0 to 1, we will get;

\rm \int\limits_C {xe^{yz}} \, ds = \dfrac{\sqrt{29}}{12}  (e^{12}-1)   or

= 73037.99 ≈ 73038

Thus, the value of line integral is, 73038 if the c is the given curve. C xeyz ds, c is the line segment from (0, 0, 0) to (2, 3, 4)
