. Let X and Y be random variables of possible percent returns (0%, 10%,
bazaltina [42]

(a) The marginal distribution of <em>X</em> is

Pr(<em>X</em> = <em>x</em>) = ∑ Pr(<em>X</em> = <em>x</em>, <em>Y</em> = <em>y</em>)

… = 0.0625 + 0.0625 + 0.0625 + 0.0625

… = 0.25

That is, the first equality follows from the law of total probability, with the sum taken over <em>y</em> from {0, 5, 10, 15}. Each probability Pr(<em>X</em> = <em>x</em>, <em>Y</em> = <em>y</em>) is given in the table to be 0.0625.

Similarly, the marginal distribution of <em>Y</em> is

Pr(<em>Y</em> = <em>y</em>) = 0.25

(b) Yes, they're independent because

Pr(<em>X</em> = <em>x</em>, <em>Y</em> = <em>y</em>) = 0.0625,

and

Pr(<em>X</em> = <em>x</em>) Pr(<em>Y</em> = <em>y</em>) = 0.25 • 0.25 = 0.0625.

(c) The mean of <em>X</em> is

E[<em>X</em>] = ∑ <em>x</em> Pr(<em>X</em> = <em>x</em>)

… = 0.25 ∑ <em>x</em>

<em>… </em>= 0.25 (0 + 5 + 10 + 15)

… = 7.5

and you would find the same mean for <em>Y</em>,

E[<em>Y</em>] = 7.5

The variance of <em>X</em> is

V[<em>X</em>] = E[<em>X</em>^2] - E[<em>X</em>]^2

… = (∑ <em>x</em>^2 Pr(<em>X</em> = <em>x</em>)) - 7.5^2

… = 0.25 (∑ <em>x</em>^2) - 56.25

… = 0.25 (0^2 + 5^2 + 10^2 + 15^2) - 56.25

… = 31.25

and similarly,

V[<em>Y</em>] = 31.25

(each sum is taken with <em>x</em> and <em>y</em> from {0, 5, 10, 15})

For question 1:
1% = 120 ÷ 100 = 1.2
15% = 1.2 × 15 = 18
So, 15% of 120 is 18

For question 2:
68.4 ÷ 72 = 0.95
0.95 × 100 = 95%
So, the percentage is 95%

For question 3,
1% = 12.5 ÷ 8 = 1.5625
100% = 1.5625 × 100 = 156.25
So, 8% of 12.5 is 156.25.

For question 4,
1% = 48 ÷ 40 = 1.2
100% = 1.2 × 100 = 120
So, 40% of 48 is 120.

For question 5,
1% = 195 ÷ 100 = 1.95
62.5% = 1.95 × 62.5 = 121.875
So, 62.5% of 195 is 121.875

A bug splatters on the windshield of a moving car. Describe the 1. Forces 2. Impulses 3. Momentum changes 4. And accelerations o
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

acceleration=force/mass

Due to variation in the mass[ as same force as per magnitude acts on both of them] the acceleration developed in the bug will be more and the acceleration developed in the car is negligible.

impulse=change in momentum

The impulse of bug is more and that of car is small.

momentum changes=change in momentum

force=change in momentum/time of contact

the force exerted by car on the bug will be more than the converse

Total. momentum is conserved , so magnitude of change in momemtum or impulse is same. By Newtons third law, since the bug have smaller mass, its change in magnitude of velocity is larger.
