6 because 2 and a half + 2 and a half =5 then 5x3= 15

Okay.  You have 15 lbs of concrete, and x bags that can individually hold 2.5 lbs.  What you need to do is divide 15 by 2.5, and the quotient will be 6.
Problem:  15 ÷ 2.5 = 6
So the answer to your problem will be: 6 bags.

Verify that the functions are probability mass functions, and determine the requested probabilities.
Free_Kalibri [48]

Answer:

a) 3/64 = 0.046 (4.6%)

b) 63/64 = 0.9843 (98.43%)

c) 1/64 = 0.015 (1.5%)

d) 1/4 = 0.25 (25%)

Step-by-step explanation:

in order to verify that the f(x) is a probability mass function , then it should comply the requirement that the sum of probabilities over the entire space of x is equal to 1. Then

∑f(x)*Δx = 1

if f(x)=(3/4)(1/4)^x , x = 0, 1, 2, ...

then Δx=1 and

∑f(x) = (3/4)∑(1/4)^x = (3/4)* [ 1/(1-1/4)] = (3/4)*(4/3) = 1

then f represents a probability mass function

a) P(X = 2)= f(x=2) = (3/4)(1/4)^2 = 3/64 = 0.046 (4.6%)

b) P(X ≤ 2) = ∑f(x) =  f(x=0)+ f(x=1) + f(x=2) = (3/4) + (3/4)(1/4) +  3/64 = 63/64 = 0.9843 (98.43%)

c) P(X > 2)= 1- P(X ≤ 2) = 1 - 63/64 = 1/64 = 0.015 (1.5%)

d) P(X ≥ 1) = 1 - P(X < 1) = 1 - f(x=0) = 1- 3/4 = 1/4 = 0.25 (25%)

The width of a rectangle is 2/5 its length. Find the dimensions if the perimeter is 42<br> meters.
Olin [163]

The formula to find the perimeter of a rectangle is P= 2(l+w). By substituting what we now knowin to the equation:

•42=2(l+(2/5l)). We can have width represented at (2/5l) because it’s now 2/5 of the length. Now add them together to get a single coefficient for l.

•42= 2(7/5l). Multiplying 7/5 by 2.

42= (14/5l). Multiplying both sides by the reciprocal of 14/5, which is 5/14, to get l by itself.

•l= 15.

Now that we now know the value of l, we know that the length is 15m. To find the width of the answer, we then multiply 15 by 2/5, which equals 6. Therefore, the only third option is correct because the length is 15m and the width is 6m.
