(From an actuarial exam) The random variables X and Y have joint probability mass function p(x, y) for x = 0, 1 and y = 0, 1, 2.

Suppose that 3p(1, 1) = p(1, 2) and p(1, 1) maximizes the variance of XY . Calculate the probability that X or Y is zero.

Answer:

0.4696

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: we say,

p(0,1) + p(0,2) + p(1,1) + p(1,0) + 3p(1,2) + p(0,0) = 1

P(Y=0) + p(X=0) - p(X=0, Y=0) + 4p(1,1) = 1.

Step2: let p(1,1)= w.

Therefore, 3w= p(1,2)

E(XY)= 2p(1,2) + p(1,1)

= 7w.

E[(XY)^2] = 4p(1,2) + p(1,1)

=13w.

variance(XY) = E[(XY)^2] - [E( XY)]^2

= -49w+ 13w

therefore, 0,1 are elements of w.

Step 3: calculate the derivative

13= 2x × 49

X = 13÷98

X= 0.1326

X=0, Y=0 = 1

= 1 - [0.1326 × (-4)]

= 0.4696.

Find the product 1/2x3/4.
Sauron [17]

Answer:

The product is 3/8

Step-by-step explanation:

When you multiply two fractions, first multiply the numbers on the top (numerators).

1 * 3 = 3

Then multiply the bottom numbers (denominators).

2 * 4 = 8

Now stick the first over the second.

3/8

Graph the image of this figure after a dilation with a scale factor of 2 centered at (2, 2).
Maru [420]

Answer:

(-6,6), (0,12), (4,8)

Step-by-step explanation:

To dilate an object, we need to multiply the x and y values by the given scale factor.

In this case the scale factor is 2 --> 2(x, y)

Before-> After dilation

2(-3,3) = (-6,6)

2(0,6) = (0,12)

2(2,4) = (4,8)

Please leave a 'thanks' if this helps!

does the following represent a function that can be represented using the equation =+? how would do you know
scoray [572]

Answer: It's not a function because the line is curved, and it has an exponent in the equation which makes the line curved instead of straight which will make x repeat.
