A plumber loads his truck each morning with faucets that will be needed for the service calls and other emergency calls that com

e in that day. Based on past​ experience, the number of faucets required each day​ (N) has the following​ distribution: ​p(0)equals​.05; ​p(1)equals​.25; ​p(2)equals​.5; ​p(3)equals​.15; ​p(4)equals.05. The expected value of N is then 1.9 faucets required per day. Each faucet requires 25 minutes to install. What is the expected number of minutes the plumber will spend each day installing​ faucets?

Answer:

47.5 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Data provided:

p(0) = 0.05

p(1) = 0.25

p(2) = 0.5

p(3) = 0.15

p(4) = 0.05

Time required by each faucet to install = 25 minutes

Therefore,

The expected number of minutes spent by the plumber each day installing faucets

= ∑ ( xp(x) × time )

= ( 0 × 0.05 × 25 ) + ( 1 × 0.25 × 25 ) + ( 2 × 0.5 × 25 ) + ( 3 × 0.15 × 25 ) + ( 4 × 0.05 × 25 )

= 6.25 + 25 + 11.25 + 5

= 47.5 minutes.

Which is a solution to the system of equations?
zhannawk [14.2K]

Choices A, C, D have a y-value that is 5 more than the x-value, so those points are on the line defined by the first equation.


Choice D satisfies the requirement

... y = 2x - 13

... 23 = 2·18 - 13

... 23 = 36 - 13


The appropriate choice is ...

... D (18, 23)

Short Response To earn a varsity letter on the baseball team, you must play in 60% of the games. Derek played in 11 out of 18 ba
Alla [95]

Answer:

Yes, he earned a Varsity letter because he played in 61% of the games.

Step-by-step explanation:

To know the percent of games he played out of the total, we can do it by dividing the games he played by the total of games and multiply this by 100% to get the percent of games he played:

\frac{11}{18}*100%

We solve:

0.611111*100% = 61.11%

So we know that he earned a letter because he played in 61.11% of the games, more than he needed.

Sketch the domain D bounded by y = x^2, y = (1/2)x^2, and y=6x. Use a change of variables with the map x = uv, y = u^2 (for u ?
cluponka [151]

Under the given transformation, the Jacobian and its determinant are

\begin{cases}x=uv\\y=u^2\end{cases}\implies J=\begin{bmatrix}v&u\\2u&0\end{bmatrix}\implies|\det J|=2u^2

so that

\displaystyle\iint_D\frac{\mathrm dx\,\mathrm dy}y=\iint_{D'}\frac{2u^2}{u^2}\,\mathrm du\,\mathrm dv=2\iint_{D'}\mathrm du\,\mathrm dv

where D' is the region D transformed into the u-v plane. The remaining integral is the twice the area of D'.

Now, the integral over D is

\displaystyle\iint_D\frac{\mathrm dx\,\mathrm dy}y=\left\{\int_0^6\int_{x^2/2}^{x^2}+\int_6^{12}\int_{x^2/2}^{6x}\right\}\frac{\mathrm dx\,\mathrm dy}y

but through the given transformation, the boundary of D' is the set of equations,

\begin{array}{l}y=x^2\implies u^2=u^2v^2\implies v^2=1\implies v=\pm1\\y=\frac{x^2}2\implies u^2=\frac{u^2v^2}2\implies v^2=2\implies v=\pm\sqrt2\\y=6x\implies u^2=6uv\implies u=6v\end{array}

We require that u>0, and the last equation tells us that we would also need v>0. This means 1\le v\le\sqrt2 and 0, so that the integral over D' is

\displaystyle2\iint_{D'}\mathrm du\,\mathrm dv=2\int_1^{\sqrt2}\int_0^{6v}\mathrm du\,\mathrm dv=\boxed6
