When you add a positive and a negative like you did here it basically is the same as subtracting 5 from 3

Because 5-3=2, so 5 is negative the 2 has to be negative because 5 is bigger than 3. Hope this helps!

A large but sparsely populated county has two small hospitals, one at the south end of the county and one at the north end. The
Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability distribution of this type is a vicariate distribution because it specifies two random variable X and Y. We represent the probability X takes x and Y takes y by

f(x,y) = P((X=x,Y=y) ,

and given that the random variables are independent the joint pmf isbgiven by:

f(x,y) = fX(x) .fY(y) and this gives the table (see attachment)

(b) the required probability is given by considering X=0,1 and Y =0,1

f(x,y) = sum{(P(X ≤ 1, Y ≤ 1) }

= [0.1 +0.2 ] × [0.1 + 0.3]

= 0.3 × 0.4

= 0.12

Now we find

fX(x) = sum{[f(x.y)]} for y =0, 1 and similarly for fY(y)= sum{[f(x,y)]} for x=0, 1

fX(x) = sum{[f(x,y)]}= 0.1+0.3

= 0.4

fY(y) = sum{[f(x.y)]} = 0.1 + 0.2

= 0.3

Since fY(y) × fX(x) = 0.4 × 0.3

= 0.12

Hence f(x,y) = fX(x) .fY(y), the events are independent

(c) the required event is give by: [P(X<=1, PY<=1)]

= P(X<=1) . P(Y<=1)

= [sum{[f(x.y]} over Y=0,1] × [sum{[f(x.y)]}, over X= 0, 1

= 0.4 × 0.3

= 0.12

(d) the required event is given by the idea that: either The South has no bed and the North has or the the North has no bed and the South has. Let this event be A

A =sum[(P(X = 1<= x<= 4, Y =0)] + sum[P(X =0 Y= 1 <= x <= 3)]

A = [0.02 + 0.03 + 0.02 + 0.02] + [0.03 + 0.04 + 0.02]

A = [0.09] + [ 0.09]

A = 0.18

Pls note the sum of the vertical column X=2 is 0.3

The Thomas family bought 5 subs and 4 drinks. They spent 49.50 write and equation that models this situation define x and y vari
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

5x+4y=49.50, where:

x is the price per sub

y is the price per drink

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information provided, you can say that the result of adding up the price per sub for the quantity plus the price per drink for the quantity is equal to 49.50 that is the total amount spent, which can be expressed as:

5x+4y=49.50, where:

x is the price per sub

y is the price per drink

Identify the similar triangles and find each measure​
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle J = Angle P, and Angle L = Angle L so the triangles have the same angle measures all the way around. Triangle JKL is the same as Triangle LMP, but smaller. it has been reduced by a ratio of 4:6. You then divide 4 by 6 to get the ratio in decimal form, and then multiply that by 12 to get the equivalent length for JK to PM
