Answer:

c) 2

d) 0.96

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

f(x) = 2x^{-3}, x > 1\\~~~~~~~= 0, x \leq 1

a) probability density function.

\displaystyle\int^{\infty}_{\infty}f(x) dx = 1\\\\\displaystyle\int^{\infty}_{-\infty}2x^{-3}dx = 1\\\\\displaystyle\int^{\infty}_{1}2x^{-3}dx\\\\\Rightarrow \big[-x^{-2}\big]^{\infty}_1\\\\\Rightarrow -(0-1) = 1

Thus, it is a probability density function.

b) cumulative distribution function.

P(X

c) mean of the distribution

\mu = \displaystyle\int^{\infty}_{-\infty}xf(x) dx\\\\\mu = \int^{\infty}_12x^{-2}dx\\\\\mu = (-\frac{2}{x})^{\infty}_{1}\\\\\mu = 2

d) probability that the size of random particle will be less than 5 micrometers

P(X

A city manager made a scatter plot of the number or retail store in a certain city over the years. the scatter plot had a trend
Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

155

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem sounds complicated, but it's not. Let's analyse.

The city manager have come up with an equartion y=11x +12, with Y is the total number of the stores and X stands for how long it has been since 2003.

We can't explain how the manager came up with this equation, so iwe don't need to think of if the equation is real or not. Let's just base on what we have.

Because the equation aboce is a trendy line, it means that it would likely to be true with any X ( number of years since 1990).

In Tracy's case, the year is 2003, so it has been 2003 - 1990 = 13 years since 1990. This is the X in the equation. Now we only need to find Y in the equation, which is the number of retail stores there were in 2003, exactly what the problem asks.

y= 11x + 12

=> In Tracy's case: y= 11*13 + 12= 155

So the number of retail stores there were in 2003 was 155

Farmer Smith enclosed his rectangular pasture with fence that cost him $1.50 per linear meter. If his pasture is twice as long a
maria [59]

Answer:

$2,700

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width of the pasture be x, this means that the length of the pasture will be 2x

The area of a rectangle is L * B

Hence,

x * 2x = 18,000

2x^2 = 180,000

x^2 = 90000

x = 300 meters

This means the length is 600 metres

Now, to get the length of the fence, we need to know the actual perimeter which is 2(L + B)

= 2 ( 300 + 600)

2 * 900 = 1,800 metres

The cost is thus 1,800 * $1.50 = $2,700

Okay so What is 4/10 x 1/6?
Stella [2.4K]
4/10 × 1/6 = 2/30
You can cross cancel 4 and six...then multiply 2/10 × 1/3 which equals 2/30
If you want you can simplify 2/30 to 1/15
