x2−4x−12=0

Step 1: Factor left side of equation.(x+2)(x−6)=0

Step 2: Set factors equal to 0.

x+2=0‌‌ or ‌‌x−6=0

x=−2‌‌ or ‌‌x=6

Fantom [35]

Answer:

The answer is 3.64m

This is because if you draw a diagram, and label all the sides of the triangle (opp, hyp, adj), the adjacent angle is 3m. You can now use the sine rule to find the hypotenuse (length of ladder) by doing: cos 30= 3/h. You divide cos 30 by 3 and you get the answer of 3.64m rounding to 2 decimal places.

An insurance company sells automobile liability and collision insurance. Let X denote the percentage of liability policies that

qaws [65]

Answer:

-764.28

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the joint cumulative distribution of X and Y as

$F(x,y) = \frac{xy(x+y)}{2000000}\ \ \ \, \ 0\leq x100, 0\leq y\leq 100$

#First find $F_x$ and probability distribution function , $f_x(x)$ :

$F_x(x)=F(x,100)\\\\\\=\frac{100x(x+100)}{2000000}\\\\\\\\=\frac{100x^2+10000x}{2000000}\\\\\\=>f_x(x)=\frac{x}{10000}+\frac{1}{200}$

#Have determined the probability distribution unction , $f_x(x)$ , we calculate the Expectation of the random variable X:

$E(X)=\int\limits^{100}_0 \frac{x^2}{10000}+\frac{x}{200} dx \\\\\\\\=|\frac{x^3}{30000}+\frac{x^2}{400}|\limits^{100}_0\\\\=58.33\\\\$

#We then calculate $E(X^2)$ :

$E(X^2)=\int\limits^{100}_0 \frac{x^3}{10000}+\frac{x^2}{200}\ dx\\\\=\frac{x^4}{40000}+\frac{x^3}{600}|\limits^{100}_0=4166.67\\\\Var(X)=E(X^2)-(E(X))^2=4166.67-58.33^2\\\\Var(X)=764.28$

Hence, the Var(X) is 764.28
