Answer:

a. E(x) = 3.730

b. c = 3.8475

c. 0.4308

Step-by-step explanation:

a.

Given

0 x < 3

F(x) = (x-3)/1.13, 3 < x < 4.13

1 x > 4.13

Calculating E(x)

First, we'll calculate the pdf, f(x).

f(x) is the derivative of F(x)

So, if F(x) = (x-3)/1.13

f(x) = F'(x) = 1/1.13, 3 < x < 4.13

E(x) is the integral of xf(x)

xf(x) = x * 1/1.3 = x/1.3

Integrating x/1.3

E(x) = x²/(2*1.13)

E(x) = x²/2.26 , 3 < x < 4.13

E(x) = (4.13²-3²)/2.16

E(x) = 3.730046296296296

E(x) = 3.730 (approximated)

b.

What is the value c such that P(X < c) = 0.75

First, we'll solve F(c)

F(c) = P(x<c)

F(c) = (c-3)/1.13= 0.75

c - 3 = 1.13 * 0.75

c - 3 = 0.8475

c = 3 + 0.8475

c = 3.8475

c.

What is the probability that X falls within 0.28 minutes of its mean?

Here we'll solve for

P(3.73 - 0.28 < X < 3.73 + 0.28)

= F(3.73 + 0.28) - F(3.73 + 0.28)

= 2*0.28/1.3 = 0.430769

= 0.4308 -- Approximated

A line intersects the points (-5, 1) and (-2,7). What is the slope of the line in simplest form? m=[?}
IrinaK [193]

Step-by-step explanation:

To find slope : y2- y1 / x2 - x1

we have ( -5 , 1 ) which is ( x1 , y1 )

and ( -2 , 7 ) is ( x2 , y2 )

so; 7 - 1 / -2 - (-5)

6/3

= <u>2</u>

How do you solve this equation
Eva8 [605]
X= 1/2 or x = 3/2.
Step 1: factor left side of equation. (2x-1)(2x-3)=O
Step 2: Set factors equal to 0. 2x-1=0 or 2x-3=0
X= 1/2 or x = 3/2.
