Answer:
The answer is 10
Step-by-step explanation:




a=10
(a) If <em>f(x)</em> is to be a proper density function, then its integral over the given support must evaulate to 1:

For the integral, substitute <em>u</em> = <em>x</em> ² and d<em>u</em> = 2<em>x</em> d<em>x</em>. Then as <em>x</em> → 0, <em>u</em> → 0; as <em>x</em> → ∞, <em>u</em> → ∞:

which reduces to
<em>c</em> / 2 (0 + 1) = 1 → <em>c</em> = 2
(b) Find the probability P(1 < <em>X </em>< 3) by integrating the density function over [1, 3] (I'll omit the steps because it's the same process as in (a)):

Answer:
c = 10 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the Pythagorean theorem: a^2 + b^2 = c^2
<u>Step 1: Plug in the information</u>
(6)^2 + (8)^2 = c^2
36 + 64 = c^2
100 = c^2
sqrt(100) = sqrt(c^2)
<em>10 = c</em>

Answer: c = 10 feet
$2.50 was left for each person.
4(9.50) + x = 48
38 + x = 48
subtract 38 on both sides
x = 10
10$ was left in total by all 4 people
10/4 = 2.50
$2.50 was left over for each person
