Suppose we are interested in bidding on a piece of land and we know one other bidder is interested. The seller announced that th

e highest bid in excess of $10,100 will be accepted. Assume that the competitor's bid x is a random variable that is uniformly distributed between $10,100 and $14,700. Suppose you bid $12,000. What is the probability that your bid will be accepted (to 2 decimals)

Answer:

P(X

And for this case we can use the cumulative distribution function given by:

P(X\leq x) =\frac{x-a}{b-a}, a \leq x \leq b

And using this formula we have this:

P(X

Then we can conclude that the probability that your bid will be accepted would be 0.41

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X the random variable of interest "the bid offered" and we know that the distribution for this random variable is given by:

X \sim Unif( a= 10100, b =14700)

If your offer is accepted is because your bid is higher than the others. And we want to find the following probability:

P(X

And for this case we can use the cumulative distribution function given by:

P(X\leq x) =\frac{x-a}{b-a}, a \leq x \leq b

And using this formula we have this:

P(X

Then we can conclude that the probability that your bid will be accepted would be 0.41

Please work out and explain​
Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:

a = 22

b = 31

c = 13

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum is the same in each row, column, and diagonal.

One of the diagonals is already complete.  The sum is:

16 + 25 + 34 = 75

So the first row adds up to 75:

a + 37 + 16 = 75

a = 22

The second row adds up to 75:

19 + 25 + b = 75

b = 31

And the third row adds up to 75:

34 + c + 28 = 75

c = 13

We can check our answer by finding the sum of each column and the other diagonal.

22 + 19 + 34 = 75

37 + 25 + 13 = 75

16 + 31 + 28 = 75

22 + 25 + 28 = 75
