Three students scheduled interviews for summer employment at the Brookwood Institute. In each case the interview results in eith

er an offer for a position or no offer. Experimental outcomes are defined in terms of the results of the three interviews.
A) How many experimental outcomes exist?
Note: The possible outcomes are Y/N for first interview, and Y/N for 2nd, and Y/N for 3rd interview.
B) Let x equal the number of students who receive an offer. Is x continuous or discrete?
a) It is discrete b) It is continuous c)It is neither discrete nor continuous
C) Show the value of the random variable for the subset of experimental outcomes listed below. Let Y = "Yes, the student receives an offer", and N = "No, the student does not receive an offer."
Experimental Outcome - Value of X
(Y,Y,Y) - ?
(Y,N,Y) - ?
(N,Y,Y) - ?
(N,N,Y) - ?
(N,N,N) - ?
What are the above experimental outcomes?

Answer:

a. 8 outcomes

b. Discrete Variable

c. See explanation below

Step-by-step explanation:

a.

Let N = No Offers made

Let Y = Offers made

The Expected outcome are as follows:

NNN, NNY, NYN, YNN, NYY, YNY, YYN, YYY

= 8

b.

Let x = number of offers made

X is said to be discrete if x can take values that are restricted to a defined or limited values

X is said to be continuous if x can take a range of values that is not restricted to any range(i.e. continuous)

Looking at the brief description above, we can conclude that x is discrete

c.

NNN, 0

NNY, 1

NYN, 1

YNN, 1

NYY, 2

YNY, 2

YYN, 2

YYY, 3

Where 0 to 3 represents number of offers at every instance

I need these three solved. I have a lot of math to do. the directions say solve each system of equations using substitution. sho
alekssr [168]

Answer:

5.

x + 2(x + 1) = 8 --> x = 2

y = 2 + 1 = 3

7.

3(9 + 2y) + 5y = 20 --> y = -7/11

x = 9 + 2(-7/11) = 85/11

9.

3(-1 - 2y) + 5y = -1 --> y = -2

x = -1 - 2(-2) = 3

The sum of two numbers is 65. The larger number is 5 more than the smaller number. What are the numbers?
ipn [44]

Answer:

30 and 35

Step-by-step explanation:

Put this question into equation form:

Let x be the smaller number, if the larger number is 5 more and the total is 65:

x + 5 + x = 65

2x + 5 = 65

Subtract 5 from both sides

2x + 5 - 5 = 65 - 5

2x = 60

Divide both sides by 2:

2x ÷ 2 = 60 ÷ 2

x = 30

As the larger number is 5 bigger:

30 + 5 = 35

So the two numbers are 30 and 35.

Hope this helps!

In sunlight, a vertical stick has a height of 5 ft and casts a shadow 3 ft long at the same time that a nearby tree casts a shad
leva [86]
The tree is 25 feet tall. Given the height of the stick and the shadow it cast, the angle formed by the sun and the stick's height can be obtained by taking the Inverse Tangent of 3/5. This is equal to 30.93. This angle is equal to the angle formed by the sun and the tree's height. Using the tangent formula, Tan (30.93)=tree's shadow (15 ft)/ height of the tree, giving the answer 25 feet.
