Suppose N has a geometric distribution with parameter p. Derive a closed-form expression for E(N | N <= k), k = 1,2,... Check

vfiekz [6]

Answer:

P(X= k) = (1-p)^k-1.p

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the number of trials is

N < = k, the geometric distribution gives the probability that there are k-1 trials that result in failure(F) before the success(S) at the kth trials.

Given p = success,

1 - p = failure

Hence the distribution is described as: Pr ( FFFF.....FS)

Pr(X= k) = (1-p)(1-p)(1-p)....(1-p)p

Pr((X=k) = (1 - p)^ (k-1) .p

Since N<=k

Pr (X =k) = p(1-p)^k-1, k= 1,2,...k

0, elsewhere

If the probability is defined for Y, the number of failure before a success

Pr (Y= k) = p(1-p)^y......k= 0,1,2,3

0, elsewhere.

Given p= 0.2, k= 3,

P(X= 3) =( 0.2) × (1 - 0.2)²

P(X=3) = 0.128

the doctor recommended that Matt increase the number of calories you consume from 2000 to 2800 by what percent did the number of

nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

40% number of calories have increased

Step-by-step explanation:

Old Value ( Calories consume before) = 2000

New Value (increase in Calories consumed) = 2800

We need to find by what percent did the number of calories increase

To find percent increase, the formula used is:

$Percent\: increase=\frac{New\:Value-Old\:Value}{Old\:Value}\times 100%$

Putting values in formula and finding percent increase

$Percent\: increase=\frac{New\:Value-Old\:Value}{Old\:Value}\times 100\%\:\\Percent\: increase=\frac{2800-2000}{2000}\times 100\%\: \\Percent\: increase=\frac{800}{2000}\times 100\%\: \\Percent\: increase=0.4\times 100\%\: \\Percent\: increase=40\%$

So, 40% number of calories have increased

The amount of time that people spend at Grover Hot Springs is normally distributed with a mean of 73 minutes and a standard devi

Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

(a) $X\sim N(\mu = 73, \sigma = 16)$

(b) 0.7910

(c) 0.0401

(d) 0.6464

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X = amount of time that people spend at Grover Hot Springs.

The random variable X is normally distributed with a mean of 73 minutes and a standard deviation of 16 minutes.

(a)

The distribution of the random variable X is:

$X\sim N(\mu = 73, \sigma = 16)$

(b)

Compute the probability that a randomly selected person at the hot springs stays longer than 60 minutes as follows:

$P(X>60)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}>\frac{60-73}{16})\\=P(Z>-0.8125)\\=P(Z$

*Use a z-table for the probability.

Thus, the probability that a randomly selected person at the hot springs stays longer than an hour is 0.7910.

(c)

Compute the probability that a randomly selected person at the hot springs stays less than 45 minutes as follows:

$P(X$

*Use a z-table for the probability.

Thus, the probability that a randomly selected person at the hot springs stays less than 45 minutes is 0.0401.

(d)

Compute the probability that a randomly person spends between 60 and 90 minutes at the hot springs as follows:

$P(60$

*Use a z-table for the probability.

Thus, the probability that a randomly person spends between 60 and 90 minutes at the hot springs is 0.6464

Given that f(x) = 2x + 1 and g(x) = −5x + 2, solve for f(g(x)) when x = 3.

Mice21 [21]

I believe the answer would be -91 because if u solve both of the equations then the f(x) would be 7 and the g(x) would be -13 so it would be 7(-13) which equals -91.
