Suppose the number of insect fragments in a chocolate bar follows a Poisson process with the expected number of fragments in a 2

00-gram chocolate bar being 10.2. 15. What is the expected number of insect fragments in 1/4 of a 200-gram chocolate bar? 16. What is the probability that you have to eat more than 10 grams of chocolate bar before nding your rst fragment? 17. What is the expected number of grams to be eaten before encountering the rst fragment?

Answer:

a)The expected number of insect fragments in 1/4 of a 200-gram chocolate bar is 2.55

b)0.6004

c)19.607

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X denotes the number of fragments in 200 gm chocolate bar with expected number of fragments 10.2

X ~ Poisson(A) where \lambda = \frac{10.2}{200} = 0.051

a)We are supposed to find the expected number of insect fragments in 1/4 of a 200-gram chocolate bar

\frac{1}{4} \times 200 = 50

50 grams of bar contains expected fragments = \lambda x = 0.051 \times 50=2.55

So, the expected number of insect fragments in 1/4 of a 200-gram chocolate bar is 2.55

b) Now we are supposed to find the probability that you have to eat more than 10 grams of chocolate bar before ending your first fragment

Let X denotes the number of grams to be eaten before another fragment is detected.

P(X>10)= e^{-\lambda \times x}= e^{-0.051 \times 10}= e^{-0.51}=0.6004

c)The expected number of grams to be eaten before encountering the first fragments :

E(X)=\frac{1}{\lambda}=\frac{1}{0.051}=19.607 grams

Consider the differential equation: xy′(x2+7)y=cos(x)+e3xy. Put the differential equation into the form: y′+p(x)y=g(x), determin
icang [17]

Answer:

Linear and non-homogeneous.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

\frac{xy'}{(x^2+7)y}=cosx+\frac{e^{3x}}{y}

We have to convert into y'+P(x)y=g(x) and determine P(x) and g(x).

We have also find type of differential equation.

y'=\frac{(x^2+7)y}{x}(cosx+\frac{e^{3x}}{y}}

y'=\frac{(x^2+7)cosx}{x}y+\frac{(x^2+7)e^{3x}}{x}

y'-\frac{cosx(x^2+7)}{x}y=\frac{e^{3x}(x^2+7)}{x}

It is linear differential equation because  this equation is of the form

y'+P(x)y=g(x)

Compare it with first order first degree linear differential equation

y'+P(x)y=g(x)

P(x)=-\frac{cosx (x^2+7)}{x},g(x)=\frac{e^{3x}(x^2+7)}{x}

\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{(x^2+7)(ycosx+e^{3x})}{x}

Homogeneous equation

\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{f(x,y)}{g(x,y)}

Degree of f and g are same.

f(x,y)=(x^2+7)(ycosx+e^{3x}),g(x,y)=x

Degree of f and g are not same .

Therefore, it is non- homogeneous .

Linear and non-homogeneous.

Aleksandr-060686 [28]
The problem needed to say that when he did the shading,
he only shaded WHOLE PARTS.

For the rectangle that he shaded 1/3 of, how many parts could it have ?
It could have 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, etc. parts ... the multiples of 3.

For the rectangle that he shaded 1/4 of, how many parts could it have ?
It could have 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, etc. parts ... the multiples of 4.

Both rectangles have the same number of parts.
What's the smallest number on both of those lists ?
It's called the "least common multiple of 3 and 4".
It's the smallest number that they both go into.
It's 12 .
