Answer:

coordinate of the other endpoint is (-9,-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a segment has endpoints at (1, -2). The midpoint is at (-4, -2).

Now we need to find about what are the coordinates of the other endpoint.

let the coordinates of other end points are (x,y)

Then mid point of (1,-2) and (x,y) is given by mid point formula:

\left(\frac{x_1+x_2}{2},\frac{y_1+y_2}{2}\right)

\left(\frac{x+1}{2},\frac{y-2}{2}\right)=(-4,-2)

\Rightarrow \frac{x+1}{2}=-4, \frac{y-2}{2}=-2

\Rightarrow x+1=-8, y-2=-4

\Rightarrow x=-9, y=-2

hence coordinate of the other endpoint is (-9,-2)

Sara wants to find the input value that produces the same output for the functions represented by the tables.
Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

2 is the value that provides the same result with f(x) and g(x).

Step-by-step explanation:

You can solve this by saying:

f(x) = g(x)

and then solving for x.

So let's do it:

f(x) = g(x)\\-0.5x + 2 = 2x - 3\\2x + 0.5x  = 2 + 3\\2.5x = 5\\x = 2

This tells us that when x = 2, the two functions will have identical values.  Let's try them out to confirm it!

f(x) = -0.5x + 2

f(2) = -0.5 * 2 + 2

f(2) = -1 + 2

f(2) = 1

g(x) = 2x - 3

g(2) = 2 * 2 - 3

g(2) = 4 - 3

g(2) = 1

So we can see that 2 is the value that produces the same result in both charts.

5.2.14. For the negative binomial pdf p (k; p, r) = k+r−1 (1 − p)kpr, find the maximum likelihood k estimator for p if r is know
Volgvan

Answer:

\hat p = \frac{r}{\bar x +r}

Step-by-step explanation:

A negative binomial random variable "is the number X of repeated trials to produce r successes in a negative binomial experiment. The probability distribution of a negative binomial random variable is called a negative binomial distribution, this distribution is known as the Pascal distribution".

And the probability mass function is given by:

P(X=x) = (x+r-1 C k)p^r (1-p)^{x}

Where r represent the number successes after the k failures and p is the probability of a success on any given trial.

Solution to the problem

For this case the likehoof function is given by:

L(\theta , x_i) = \prod_{i=1}^n f(\theta ,x_i)

If we replace the mass function we got:

L(p, x_i) = \prod_{i=1}^n (x_i +r-1 C k) p^r (1-p)^{x_i}

When we take the derivate of the likehood function we got:

l(p,x_i) = \sum_{i=1}^n [log (x_i +r-1 C k) + r log(p) + x_i log(1-p)]

And in order to estimate the likehood estimator for p we need to take the derivate from the last expression and we got:

\frac{dl(p,x_i)}{dp} = \sum_{i=1}^n \frac{r}{p} -\frac{x_i}{1-p}

And we can separete the sum and we got:

\frac{dl(p,x_i)}{dp} = \sum_{i=1}^n \frac{r}{p} -\sum_{i=1}^n \frac{x_i}{1-p}

Now we need to find the critical point setting equal to zero this derivate and we got:

\frac{dl(p,x_i)}{dp} = \sum_{i=1}^n \frac{r}{p} -\sum_{i=1}^n \frac{x_i}{1-p}=0

\sum_{i=1}^n \frac{r}{p} =\sum_{i=1}^n \frac{x_i}{1-p}

For the left and right part of the expression we just have this using the properties for a sum and taking in count that p is a fixed value:

\frac{nr}{p}= \frac{\sum_{i=1}^n x_i}{1-p}

Now we need to solve the value of \hat p from the last equation like this:

nr(1-p) = p \sum_{i=1}^n x_i

nr -nrp =p \sum_{i=1}^n x_i

p \sum_{i=1}^n x_i +nrp = nr

p[\sum_{i=1}^n x_i +nr]= nr

And if we solve for \hat p we got:

\hat p = \frac{nr}{\sum_{i=1}^n x_i +nr}

And if we divide numerator and denominator by n we got:

\hat p = \frac{r}{\bar x +r}

Since \bar x = \frac{\sum_{i=1}^n x_i}{n}
