Question 3 Rewrite in simplest rational exponent form √x • 4√x. Show each step of your process.

QveST [7]3 years ago

Answer:

4x

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

√x • 4√x

Required:

Simplify in rational exponent form

SOLUTION:

Recall => \sqrt{a} = a^{\frac{1}{2}}

Thus,

\sqrt{x}*4\sqrt{x} can be expressed in exponent form as x^{\frac{1}{2}}*4x^{\frac{1}{2}

When multiplying 2 bases having exponents together, their exponents should be added together, while you multiply the bases. I.e. x^m*x^n = x^{m+n }

= x*4^{\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{2}

= 4x^{1} = 4x

The answer is 4x

Alfonso and Lucas are 238 miles apart, traveling towards each other. If Lucas travels 21 mph and Alfonso travels 13 mph how long
Alex

Lucas equation for his location is x(t) = 13t.

Alfonso's equation is x(t) = 238 - 21t

If you equate these, you get:


13t = 238 - 21t =>

34t = 238

t = 7


So after seven hours they meet.

Suppose that W1, W2, and W3 are independent uniform random variables with the following distributions: Wi ~ Uni(0,10*i). What is
nadya68 [22]

I'll leave the computation via R to you. The W_i are distributed uniformly on the intervals [0,10i], so that

f_{W_i}(w)=\begin{cases}\dfrac1{10i}&\text{for }0\le w\le10i\\\\0&\text{otherwise}\end{cases}

each with mean/expectation

E[W_i]=\displaystyle\int_{-\infty}^\infty wf_{W_i}(w)\,\mathrm dw=\int_0^{10i}\frac w{10i}\,\mathrm dw=5i

and variance

\mathrm{Var}[W_i]=E[(W_i-E[W_i])^2]=E[{W_i}^2]-E[W_i]^2

We have

E[{W_i}^2]=\displaystyle\int_{-\infty}^\infty w^2f_{W_i}(w)\,\mathrm dw=\int_0^{10i}\frac{w^2}{10i}\,\mathrm dw=\frac{100i^2}3

so that

\mathrm{Var}[W_i]=\dfrac{25i^2}3

Now,

E[W_1+W_2+W_3]=E[W_1]+E[W_2]+E[W_3]=5+10+15=30

and

\mathrm{Var}[W_1+W_2+W_3]=E\left[\big((W_1+W_2+W_3)-E[W_1+W_2+W_3]\big)^2\right]

\mathrm{Var}[W_1+W_2+W_3]=E[(W_1+W_2+W_3)^2]-E[W_1+W_2+W_3]^2

We have

(W_1+W_2+W_3)^2={W_1}^2+{W_2}^2+{W_3}^2+2(W_1W_2+W_1W_3+W_2W_3)

E[(W_1+W_2+W_3)^2]

=E[{W_1}^2]+E[{W_2}^2]+E[{W_3}^2]+2(E[W_1]E[W_2]+E[W_1]E[W_3]+E[W_2]E[W_3])

because W_i and W_j are independent when i\neq j, and so

E[(W_1+W_2+W_3)^2]=\dfrac{100}3+\dfrac{400}3+300+2(50+75+150)=\dfrac{3050}3

giving a variance of

\mathrm{Var}[W_1+W_2+W_3]=\dfrac{3050}3-30^2=\dfrac{350}3

and so the standard deviation is \sqrt{\dfrac{350}3}\approx\boxed{116.67}

# # #

A faster way, assuming you know the variance of a linear combination of independent random variables, is to compute

\mathrm{Var}[W_1+W_2+W_3]

=\mathrm{Var}[W_1]+\mathrm{Var}[W_2]+\mathrm{Var}[W_3]+2(\mathrm{Cov}[W_1,W_2]+\mathrm{Cov}[W_1,W_3]+\mathrm{Cov}[W_2,W_3])

and since the W_i are independent, each covariance is 0. Then

\mathrm{Var}[W_1+W_2+W_3]=\mathrm{Var}[W_1]+\mathrm{Var}[W_2]+\mathrm{Var}[W_3]

\mathrm{Var}[W_1+W_2+W_3]=\dfrac{25}3+\dfrac{100}3+75=\dfrac{350}3

and take the square root to get the standard deviation.
