hailey had 4 3/8 cup of cherries she used 5/8 of the cherries to bake muffins how many cups of cherries did she use

Mathematics
1 answer:
mars1129 [50]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

2 31/32   cups used

Step-by-step explanation:

We have 4 3/8 cups cherries

Change this to an improper fraction

4 3/8 = (8*4+3)/8 = 38/8

We use 5/8 of the cherries

38/8 *5/8

190/64

Change this back to a mixed number

64 goes into 190 2 times

190 - 128 =62  left over

2 62/64

2 31/32   cups used

A filtration process removes a random proportion of particulates in water to which it is applied. Suppose that a sample of water
Doss [256]

Answer:

E(Y)=\frac{1}{25}

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start defining the random variables for this exercise :

X_{1}: '' The proportion of the particulates that are removed by the first pass ''

X_{2}: '' The proportion of what remains after the first pass that is removed by the second pass ''

Y: '' The proportion of the original particulates that remain in the sample after two passes ''

We know the relation between the random variables :

Y=(1-X_{1})(1-X_{2})

We also assume that X_{1} and X_{2} are independent random variables with common pdf.

The probability density function for both variables is f(x)=4x^{3} for 0 and f(x)=0 otherwise.

The first step to solve this exercise is to find the expected value for X_{1} and X_{2}.

Because the variables have the same pdf we write :

E(X_{1})= E(X_{2})=E(X)

Using the pdf to calculate the expected value we write :

E(X)=\int\limits^a_b {xf(x)} \, dx

Where a= ∞ and b= - ∞ (because we integrate in the whole range of the random variable). In this case, we will integrate between 0 and 1 ⇒

Using the pdf we calculate the expected value :

E(X)=\int\limits^1_0 {x4x^{3}} \, dx=\int\limits^1_0 {4x^{4}} \, dx=\frac{4}{5}

⇒ E(X)=E(X_{1})=E(X_{2})=\frac{4}{5}

Now we need to use some expected value properties in the expression of Y ⇒

Y=(1-X_{1})(1-X_{2}) ⇒

Y=1-X_{2}-X_{1}+X_{1}X_{2}

Applying the expected value properties (linearity and expected value of a constant) ⇒

E(Y)=E(1)-E(X_{2})-E(X_{1})+E(X_{1}X_{2})

Using that X_{1} and X_{2} have the same expected value E(X) and given that X_{1} and X_{2} are independent random variables we can write E(X_{1}X_{2})=E(X_{1})E(X_{2})   ⇒

E(Y)=E(1)-E(X)-E(X)+E(X_{1})E(X_{2}) ⇒

E(Y)=E(1)-2E(X)+[E(X)]^{2}

Using the value of E(X) calculated :

E(Y)=1-2(\frac{4}{5})+(\frac{4}{5})^{2}=\frac{1}{25}

E(Y)=\frac{1}{25}

We find that the expected value of the variable Y is E(Y)=\frac{1}{25}

Simplify the expression:<br> 8+9–1+2a
eimsori [14]

Answer:

Answer: =2a + 16

Step-by-step explanation:

8+9−1+2a  =8+9+−1+2a

now its time to to do CLT  

=8+9+−1+2a

=(2a)+(8+9+−1)

=2a+16
