Let

be the random variable indicating whether the elevator does not stop at floor

, with

Let

be the random variable representing the number of floors at which the elevator does not stop. Then

We want to find

. By definition,
![\mathrm{Var}(Y)=\mathbb E[(Y-\mathbb E[Y])^2]=\mathbb E[Y^2]-\mathbb E[Y]^2](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cmathrm%7BVar%7D%28Y%29%3D%5Cmathbb%20E%5B%28Y-%5Cmathbb%20E%5BY%5D%29%5E2%5D%3D%5Cmathbb%20E%5BY%5E2%5D-%5Cmathbb%20E%5BY%5D%5E2)
As stated in the question, there is a

probability that any one person will get off at floor

(here,

refers to any of the

total floors, not just the top floor). Then the probability that a person will not get off at floor

is

. There are

people in the elevator, so the probability that not a single one gets off at floor

is

.
So,

which means
![\mathbb E[Y]=\mathbb E\left[\displaystyle\sum_{i=1}^nX_i\right]=\displaystyle\sum_{i=1}^n\mathbb E[X_i]=\sum_{i=1}^n\left(1\cdot\left(1-\dfrac1n\right)^m+0\cdot\left(1-\left(1-\dfrac1n\right)^m\right)](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cmathbb%20E%5BY%5D%3D%5Cmathbb%20E%5Cleft%5B%5Cdisplaystyle%5Csum_%7Bi%3D1%7D%5EnX_i%5Cright%5D%3D%5Cdisplaystyle%5Csum_%7Bi%3D1%7D%5En%5Cmathbb%20E%5BX_i%5D%3D%5Csum_%7Bi%3D1%7D%5En%5Cleft%281%5Ccdot%5Cleft%281-%5Cdfrac1n%5Cright%29%5Em%2B0%5Ccdot%5Cleft%281-%5Cleft%281-%5Cdfrac1n%5Cright%29%5Em%5Cright%29)
![\implies\mathbb E[Y]=n\left(1-\dfrac1n\right)^m](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cimplies%5Cmathbb%20E%5BY%5D%3Dn%5Cleft%281-%5Cdfrac1n%5Cright%29%5Em)
and
![\mathbb E[Y^2]=\mathbb E\left[\left(\displaystyle\sum_{i=1}^n{X_i}\right)^2\right]=\mathbb E\left[\displaystyle\sum_{i=1}^n{X_i}^2+2\sum_{1\le i](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cmathbb%20E%5BY%5E2%5D%3D%5Cmathbb%20E%5Cleft%5B%5Cleft%28%5Cdisplaystyle%5Csum_%7Bi%3D1%7D%5En%7BX_i%7D%5Cright%29%5E2%5Cright%5D%3D%5Cmathbb%20E%5Cleft%5B%5Cdisplaystyle%5Csum_%7Bi%3D1%7D%5En%7BX_i%7D%5E2%2B2%5Csum_%7B1%5Cle%20i%3Cj%7DX_iX_j%5Cright%5D%3D%5Cdisplaystyle%5Csum_%7Bi%3D1%7D%5En%5Cmathbb%20E%5B%7BX_i%7D%5E2%5D%2B2%5Csum_%7B1%5Cle%20i%3Cj%7D%5Cmathbb%20E%5BX_iX_j%5D)
Computing
![\mathbb E[{X_i}^2]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cmathbb%20E%5B%7BX_i%7D%5E2%5D)
is trivial since it's the same as
![\mathbb E[X_i]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cmathbb%20E%5BX_i%5D)
. (Do you see why?)
Next, we want to find the expected value of the following random variable, when

:

If

, we don't care; when we compute
![\mathbb E[X_iX_j]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cmathbb%20E%5BX_iX_j%5D)
, the contributing terms will vanish. We only want to see what happens when both floors are not visited.

![\implies\mathbb E[X_iX_j]=\left(1-\dfrac2n\right)^m](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cimplies%5Cmathbb%20E%5BX_iX_j%5D%3D%5Cleft%281-%5Cdfrac2n%5Cright%29%5Em)

where we multiply by

because that's how many ways there are of choosing indices

for

such that

.
So,
Answer:
B. The amount spent on grapes compared with the weight of the purchase.
Step-by-step explanation:
A: The shoe size of a young girl compared with her age in years. For the first few years of a girl's life, her shoe size is relatively the same. When she goes through a growth spurt, her shoe size increases exponentially. So, that is not a constant rate of change.
B: The amount spent on grapes compared with the weight of the purchase. In most grocery stores, grapes are sold based on their weight, like $2.50 per pound. With each increase in 1 pound, the cost increases by $2.50. That is a constant rate of change.
C: The number of people on a city bus compared with the time of day. This value widely changes throughout the day. For example, during rush hour, there will be many people. But during times at, say, 2 to 3 AM, there will not be many people. So, this is not a constant rate of change.
D: The number of slices in a pizza compared with the time it takes to deliver it. The number of slices in a pizza never changes, so it does not depend on the time it takes to deliver. There is no rate of change.
So, B is your answer.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
The point of intersection is (3,1)
Step-by-step explanation:
Manipulate these equations to achieve the form of y = mx + c
1) y + 5 = 2x
Y = 2x - 5
2) y = 7 - 2x
Y = -2x + 7
Point of intersection is (3,1) on the graph attached
To check algebraically:
2x - 5 = -2x + 7
4x = 12
X = 3
Substitute to get y
Y = 2x - 5
Y = 2 x 3 - 5
Y = 1
Therefore (3,1)
Answer:
Total earned(in dollars) 
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Michael's hourly rate working as a tutor = $12 per hour
Michael's hourly rate working as a waiter = $10 per hour
Total number of hours worked by Michael for both jobs this month = 92
Let the number of hours Michael works as a tutor this month be
hours.
∴ Number of hours Michael works as a waiter this month will be
hours.
