We're trying to find $s(t(-7))$ .

$t(-7)=3(-7)$

$t(-7)=-21$

$s(-21)=2-(-21)^2$

$s(-21)=2-441$

$s(-21)=-439$

Hope this helps.

頑張って!

Let X be a Bernoulli rv with pmf as in Example 3.18. a. Compute E(X2 ). b. Show that V(X) 5 p(1 2 p). c. Compute E(X79).

spayn [35]

The Bernoulli distribution is a distribution whose random variable can only take 0 or 1

The value of E(x2) is p
The value of V(x) is p(1 - p)
The value of E(x79) is p

<h3>How to compute E(x2)</h3>

The distribution is given as:

p(0) = 1 - p

p(1) = p

The expected value of x2, E(x2) is calculated as:

$E(x^2) = \sum x^2 * P(x)$

So, we have:

$E(x^2) = 0^2 * (1- p) + 1^2 * p$

Evaluate the exponents

$E(x^2) = 0 * (1- p) + 1 * p$

Multiply

$E(x^2) = 0 +p$

Add

$E(x^2) = p$

Hence, the value of E(x2) is p

<h3>How to compute V(x)</h3>

This is calculated as:

$V(x) = E(x^2) - (E(x))^2$

Start by calculating E(x) using:

$E(x) = \sum x * P(x)$

So, we have:

$E(x) = 0 * (1- p) + 1 * p$

$E(x) = p$

Recall that:

$V(x) = E(x^2) - (E(x))^2$

So, we have:

$V(x) = p - p^2$

Factor out p

$V(x) = p(1 - p)$

Hence, the value of V(x) is p(1 - p)

<h3>How to compute E(x79)</h3>

The expected value of x79, E(x79) is calculated as:

$E(x^{79}) = \sum x^{79} * P(x)$

So, we have:

$E(x^{79}) = 0^{79} * (1- p) + 1^{79} * p$

Evaluate the exponents

$E(x^{79}) = 0 * (1- p) + 1 * p$

Multiply

$E(x^{79}) = 0 + p$

Add

$E(x^{79}) = p$

Hence, the value of E(x79) is p

Pleaseeee help! I'm really confused.

seropon [69]

He will be making a right triangle with the legs being 24 x 45. The diagonal will be the hypotenuse of the triangle. To find the amount of fencing we need the perimeter of the triangle.
Use Pythagorean theorem to find the length of the hypotenuse.
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
24^2 + 45^2 = c^2
576 + 2025 = c^2
2601 = c^2
sqrt 2601 = c
c = 51
Adding the three lengths the total fencing needed is
51+24+45=120 meters

Keiko has seven colors of lanyard. She uses three different colors to make a keychain. How many different combinations can she c

AleksAgata [21]

Combination = doesn't matter what order
Permutation = order matters

There are <u>two</u> methods to work out combinations.

Method 1 List out possibilities
123 124 125 126 127 134 135 136 137 145 146 147 156 157 167
234 235 236 237 245 246 247 256 257 267
345 346 347 356 357 367
456 457 467
567

For a total of 35 combinations.

Method 2 Use a formula.
It's a rather complicated one, so only use it if you have a lot of possibilities.

$\frac{n!}{r!(n-r)!} = \frac{7!}{3!(7-3)!} = \frac{7!}{3!*4!} = \frac{7*6*5*4*3*2*1}{3*2*1*4*3*2*1} = \frac{7*6*5}{3*2*1}=\frac{210}6=35$

(n is the number of choices, r is the amount you choose, and ! is a function that multiplies together all numbers down to 1)

Kevin needs to replace four rectangular

LekaFEV [45]

To find the measure of a singular window we need to find the area which is length times width. so that's 2.75(4) which is 11 square feet. However, Kevin has four windows which means he needs 11(4) square feet for all the windows. Which would mean Kevin needs 44 sqaure feet.
