Answer:

The expectation the instructor to send each day

E(X) = 3.65

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data   x   :    0      1           2        3         4        5

P(X=x)               :   0.05 0.05    0.1    0.1         0.4     0.3

The given data satisfy the two conditions

I) Given all probabilities are p₁(x) ≥0

ii) sum of all probabilities is equal to one

0.05 + 0.05 + 0.1  +  0.1 + 0.4 +0.3 =1

Therefore given data is discrete probability distribution

<u>Expectation</u> :-

suppose a random variable X assumes the values x_{1}, x_{2},..x_{n} with respective probabilities p_{1}, p_{2},..p_{n} , then the Expectation or Expected value of X  , denoted by E(X) = ∑pi xi

E(X) = 0X0.05+1X 0.05 +2X 0.1  +3X 0.1 +4X0.4 +5X 0.3

on simplification, we get

E(X) = 3.65

how many gallons will it take to mow a lawn if you maintain the rate of 1/2 gallon of gasoline per 1/4 mowed
Musya8 [376]
Recall that one whole is 1, or in this case since the denominator is 4, then 4/4 is 1 whole, so the whole lawn is 4/4.

\bf \begin{array}{ccll}&#10;gallons&mowed\\&#10;\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\&#10;\frac{1}{2}&\frac{1}{4}\\\\&#10;g&\frac{4}{4}&#10;\end{array}\implies \cfrac{\frac{1}{2}}{g}=\cfrac{\frac{1}{4}}{\frac{4}{4}}\implies \cfrac{\frac{1}{2}}{\frac{g}{1}}=\cfrac{\frac{1}{4}}{\frac{4}{4}}\implies \cfrac{1}{2}\cdot \cfrac{1}{g}=\cfrac{1}{4}\cdot \cfrac{4}{4}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\cfrac{1}{2g}=\cfrac{1}{4}\implies 4=2g\implies \cfrac{4}{2}=g\implies 2=g
