Answer:

1500 = original price

Step-by-step explanation:

New price of computer = original price - original price * percent off

Factoring out the original price

New price of computer = original price (1- percent off)

We know the new price = 1200 and the percent off =20

Substituting these value in

1200 = original price (1-.2)

1200 = original price (.8)

Divide each side by .8

1200/.8 = original price*.8/.8

1500 = original price

A rectangular carpet is x+5 feet wide and 3x-2 feet long what is the area in square feet of the carpet in terms of x
siniylev [52]
Formula for area:
Area = Wide x Length

Wide: x + 5
Long: 3x - 2

Area = (x + 5) x (3x - 2)
Area = 3x² - 2x + 15x - 10
Area = (3x² + 13x - 10) square feet

Anon25 [30]

Answer:

A. E(x) = 1/n×n(n+1)/2

B. E(x²) = 1/n

Step-by-step explanation:

The n candidates for a job have been ranked 1,2,3....n. Let x be the rank of a randomly selected candidate. Therefore, the PMF of X is given as

P(x) = {1/n, x = 1,2...n}

Therefore,

Expectation of X

E(x) = summation {xP(×)}

= summation {X×1/n}

= 1/n summation{x}

= 1/n×n(n+1)/2

= n+1/2

Thus, E(x) = 1/n×n(n+1)/2

Value of E(x²)

E(x²) = summation {x²P(×)}

= summation{x²×1/n}

= 1/n
