A convenience store has two separate locations where customers can be checked out as they leave. These locations each have two c

ash registers and two employees who check out customers. Let X be the number of each registers being used at a particular time for location 1 and Y the number being used at the- same time for location 2. The joint probability function is given by Give the marginal density of both X and Y as well as the probability distribution of X given Y = 2. Give E(X) and Var(X). Give E(X|Y = 2) and Var(X|Y = 2).

The joint probability function is missing and I've attached it.

Answer:

A) - For g(x);

g(0)=0.2 ; g(1)=0.32 ; g(2) =0.48

- For h(y);

h(0)=0.26 ; h(1)=0.35 ; h(2) =0.39

-The probability distribution of X given Y = 2 is;

f(0|2) = 4/39 ; f(1|2) = 5/39 ; f(2|2) = 30/39

B) Var(X) = 0.602

C) E(X|Y=2) = 5/3

Var(X|Y= 2) = 150/351

Step-by-step explanation:

A) Let f(x, y) be the joint probability distribution of the function with the table attached and let g(x) be the marginal density function of the random variable X. Thus, we compute the following;

g(x) = Σ_y f(x, y) = Σ(2)_(y=0) f(x, y)

Now, solving from the table;

g(0) = f(0,0) + f(0,1) + f(0,2) = 0.12 + 0.04 + 0.04 = 0.20

g(1) = f(1,0) + f(1,1) + f(1,2) = 0.08 + 0.19 + 0.05 = 0.32

g(2) = f(2,0) + f(2,1) + f(2,2) = 0.06 + 0.12 + 0.30 = 0.48

In a similar manner, let h(y) be the marginal density function of the random variable Y. Thus, we compute the following;

h(y) = Σ_x f(x, y) = Σ(2)_(x=0) f(x, y)

Now, solving from the table;

h(0) = f(0,0) + f(1,0) + f(2,0) = 0.12 + 0.08 + 0.06 = 0.26

h(1) = f(0,1) + f(1,1) + f(2,1) = 0.04 + 0.19 + 0.12 = 0.35

h(2) = f(0,2) + f(2,2) + f(2,1) = 0.04 + 0.05 + 0.30 = 0.39

Now, let's find the values f(x|2) for all x which the variable X assumes.

From earlier we have ;

f(x|2) = f(x,2)/h(2)

Solving from the joint probability table i attached, we obtain the following ;

f(0|2) = f(0,2)/h(2) = 0.04/0.39 = 4/39

f(1|2) = f(1,2)/h(2) = 0.05/0.39 = 5/39

f(2,2) = f(2,2)/h(2) = 0.30/0.39 = 30/39

B) The expected value of the random variable X is given as;

E(X) = Σ_x g(x) = Σ(2)_(x=0) x•g(x) =

(0 x 0.2) + (1 x 0.32) + (2 x 0.48) = 1.28

Now, the variance is given as;

Var(X) = Σ_x (x - E(X)²•g(X) =

Σ(2)_(x=0) (x - 1.28)²•g(x)

Var(X) = [(0 - 1.28)² x 0.2] + [(1 - 1.28)² x 0.32] + [(2 - 1.28)² x 0.42]

= 0.328 + 0.025 + 0.249 = 0.602

C) To find the mean of X, let's use the equivalent formula ;

E(X|Y = 2) = Σ_x (x•f(x|2)) = Σ(2)_(x=0) (x•f(x|2)

Thus,

E(X|Y = 2) = (0 x 4/39) + (1 x 5/39) + (2 x 30/39) = (5/39 + 20/13) = 5/3

Now, for the variance; it's given as;

Var(X|Y= 2) = Σ_x (x - E(X|Y= 2))²• f(x|2)

Var(X|Y= 2) = Σ(2)_(x=0) (x - 5/3)²•f(x|2)

Var(X|Y= 2) = [(0 - 5/3)²•4/39] + [1 - 5/3)²•5/39] + [(2 - 5/3)²•30/39]

= 100/351 + 20/351 + 30/351 = 150/351

Answer:

E(X) = 1.28

Var(X) = 0.6016

E(X | Y=2) = 1.6667

Var(X | Y=2) = 0.4272

Changing Dimensions of 3-D Figures
Leni [432]

The prisms are congruent if the lengths of corresponding edges are in a 1:1  ratio, the volumes and the base areas are equal and the prisms have same height                                                                                                                                  

Step-by-step explanation:

For the two prisms to be congruent the following properties should hold TRUE

The lengths of corresponding edges are in a 1:1  ratio.

The volumes are equal.

The base areas are equal.

The prisms have the same height.

Which is greater, |-6.3| or |-19\20|
MrMuchimi
|6.3| because the lines mean absolute value. Take the positive number values of each number and compare them. 6.3 vs 19/20. 19/20 is 0.95 so 6.3 is bigger.
