I'm going to assume the joint density function is

f_{X,Y}(x,y)=\begin{cases}\frac67(x^2+\frac{xy}2\right)&\text{for }0

a. In order for f_{X,Y} to be a proper probability density function, the integral over its support must be 1.

\displaystyle\int_0^2\int_0^1\frac67\left(x^2+\frac{xy}2\right)\,\mathrm dx\,\mathrm dy=\frac67\int_0^2\left(\frac13+\frac y4\right)\,\mathrm dy=1



b. You get the marginal density f_X by integrating the joint density over all possible values of Y:

f_X(x)=\displaystyle\int_0^2f_{X,Y}(x,y)\,\mathrm dy=\boxed{\begin{cases}\frac67(2x^2+x)&\text{for }0

c. We have

P(X>Y)=\displaystyle\int_0^1\int_0^xf_{X,Y}(x,y)\,\mathrm dy\,\mathrm dx=\int_0^1\frac{15}{14}x^3\,\mathrm dx=\boxed{\frac{15}{56}}

d. We have

\displaystyle P\left(X

and by definition of conditional probability,

P\left(Y>\dfrac12\mid X\frac12\text{ and }X

\displaystyle=\dfrac{28}5\int_{1/2}^2\int_0^{1/2}f_{X,Y}(x,y)\,\mathrm dx\,\mathrm dy=\boxed{\frac{69}{80}}

e. We can find the expectation of X using the marginal distribution found earlier.

E[X]=\displaystyle\int_0^1xf_X(x)\,\mathrm dx=\frac67\int_0^1(2x^2+x)\,\mathrm dx=\boxed{\frac57}

f. This part is cut off, but if you're supposed to find the expectation of Y, there are several ways to do so.

  • Compute the marginal density of Y, then directly compute the expected value.

f_Y(y)=\displaystyle\int_0^1f_{X,Y}(x,y)\,\mathrm dx=\begin{cases}\frac1{14}(4+3y)&\text{for }0

\implies E[Y]=\displaystyle\int_0^2yf_Y(y)\,\mathrm dy=\frac87

  • Compute the conditional density of Y given X=x, then use the law of total expectation.

f_{Y\mid X}(y\mid x)=\dfrac{f_{X,Y}(x,y)}{f_X(x)}=\begin{cases}\frac{2x+y}{4x+2}&\text{for }0

The law of total expectation says

E[Y]=E[E[Y\mid X]]

We have

E[Y\mid X=x]=\displaystyle\int_0^2yf_{Y\mid X}(y\mid x)\,\mathrm dy=\frac{6x+4}{6x+3}=1+\frac1{6x+3}

\implies E[Y\mid X]=1+\dfrac1{6X+3}

This random variable is undefined only when X=-\frac12 which is outside the support of f_X, so we have

E[Y]=E\left[1+\dfrac1{6X+3}\right]=\displaystyle\int_0^1\left(1+\frac1{6x+3}\right)f_X(x)\,\mathrm dx=\frac87

Find the length of the curve. R(t) = cos(8t) i + sin(8t) j + 8 ln cos t k, 0 ≤ t ≤ π/4
arsen [322]

we are given

R(t)=cos(8t)i+sin(8t)j+8ln(cos(t))k

now, we can find x , y and z components

x=cos(8t),y=sin(8t),z=8ln(cos(t))

Arc length calculation:

we can use formula

L=\int\limits^a_b {\sqrt{(x')^2+(y')^2+(z')^2} } \, dt

x'=-8sin(8t),y=8cos(8t),z=-8tan(t)

now, we can plug these values

L=\int _0^{\frac{\pi }{4}}\sqrt{(-8sin(8t))^2+(8cos(8t))^2+(-8tan(t))^2} dt

now, we can simplify it

L=\int _0^{\frac{\pi }{4}}\sqrt{64+64tan^2(t)} dt

L=\int _0^{\frac{\pi }{4}}8\sqrt{1+tan^2(t)} dt

L=\int _0^{\frac{\pi }{4}}8\sqrt{sec^2(t)} dt

L=\int _0^{\frac{\pi }{4}}8sec(t) dt

now, we can solve integral

\int \:8\sec \left(t\right)dt

=8\ln \left|\tan \left(t\right)+\sec \left(t\right)\right|

now, we can plug bounds

and we get

=8\ln \left(\sqrt{2}+1\right)-0

so,

L=8\ln \left(1+\sqrt{2}\right)..............Answer

Describe the relationship between n and 4 that will make the value of the expression 7×n/4 great her than 7
nadezda [96]
If you want an answer greater that 7, your fraction needs to be greater than 1.
n can be any number greater than 4

7 \times  \frac{4}{4}  = 7
7 \times  \frac{8}{4}  = 14

I really need math help.
fenix001 [56]

When you see the 'line' is increasing starting from 0 to 2 hours, this indicates that the person on the graph is riding up a hill. This is known as positive acceleration or constant positive acceleration.

Where you see the 'line' stays the same 2 to 5 hours, this can indicate that the bike rider is doing one or two things. One thing the biker could be doing is taking a rest, and the other could be that the biker is riding at a leveled ground. This could be known as having constant velocity or zero acceleration.

Finally, where the 'line' is decreasing from 5 to 6 hours, this can indicate that biker is riding, possibly, down a hill. This is known as negative acceleration.

And of course, when the 'line' is going up again from 6 to 7 hours, this indicates that the biker is riding up a hill or increasing his speed. This is known as positive acceleration or constant positive acceleration.
