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

vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

Susan is 3 years  and Debbie is 8 years old. after 2 years Susan will be 5 Years and Debbie will be 10 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

let the present age of Susan be x years then Debbie is x+5 years

in 2 years

x +2 = x+5+2/2

x+2=x+7/2

2x +4 = x+7

x=3

You need to make 5 grilled cheese sandwiches. You have a grill that is large enough to toast 2 sandwiches at a time. The sandwic
n200080 [17]
Each sandwich is toasted for 2 minutes and it takes 3 seconds to flip it.
The first two sandwiches will be toasted in 2 minutes (toasting) and 6 seconds (flipping).
The two will then be switched which will take 10 seconds.
The next two will again take 2 minutes and 6 seconds.
The final sandwich will take 5 seconds to be placed.
The final sandwich will also take 2 minutes to toast and 3 seconds to flip.
Total time:
2 + 2 +2 = 6 minutes
6 + 10 + 6 + 3 = 25 seconds
Total time is 6 minutes and 25 seconds.
