Consider a communication source that transmits packets containing digitized speech. After each transmission, the receiver sends

a message indicating whether the transmission was successful or unsuccessful. If a transmission is unsuccessful, the packet is resent. Suppose a voice packet can be transmitted a maximum of 8 times. Assuming that the results of successive transmissions are independent of one another and that the probability of any particular transmission being successful is p, determine the probability mass function of the number of times a packet is transmitted.

Answer:

 The  probability mass function is

         F(x) =  [ \left \ 8 } \atop {x}} \right. ] * p^x  *  q^{n - x }

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The maximum transmission time is  n  =  8

Generally the number of times a packet is transmitted follows a binomial distribution given that the  the results of successive transmissions are independent of one another and that the probability of any particular transmission being successful is p

Generally the probability mass function is mathematically represented as

          F(x) =  [ \left \ 8 } \atop {x}} \right. ] * p^x  *  q^{n - x }

Here  x can take values x =  0 ,  1 , 2 , 3 , ... , 7

Write the equation of the line graphed below in Point-Slope form. Use the point labeled on the graph. State the slope and point.
saw5 [17]

Given:

The graph of a line.

To find:

The point-slope form of the given line.

Solution:

From the given graph it is clear that the line passes through the point (1,5) and (0,-1). So, the slope of the line is:

m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

m=\dfrac{-1-5}{0-1}

m=\dfrac{-6}{-1}

m=6

The slope of the line is 6 and it passes through the point (1,5). So, the point slope form of the line is:

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

y-5=6(x-1)

Therefore, the point-slope form is y-5=6(x-1), slope is 6 and the point is (1,5).

A school bus has 22 rows of seats, and 4 students can be seated in each row. Students riding in the bus have filled 19 rows of s
Lelu [443]

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

total no. of seats = 22 x 4 = 88

total no. of seats occupied = 19 * 4 + (22-19)*4/2 = 76 + 6 = 82

no. of empty seats = 88 -82 = 6

One vertex of a triangle is located at (0, 5) on a coordinate grid. After a transformation, the vertex is located at (5, 0). Whi
madreJ [45]

Answer:

The Transformations are R(O , -90°) & R(O , 270)

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets revise the rotation of a point

- If point (x , y) rotated about the origin by angle 90° anti-clock wise

∴ Its image is (-y , x)

- If point (x , y) rotated about the origin by angle 90° clock wise

 (270° anti-clockwise or -90°)

∴ Its image is (y , -x)

- If point (x , y) rotated about the origin by angle 180°

∴ Its image is (-x , -y)

* There is no difference between rotating 180° clockwise (-180°) or  

anti-clockwise (180°) around the origin

* Lets solve the problem

∵ One vertex of a triangle is located at (0, 5) on a coordinate grid

∵ The image of the point after the transformation is (5 , 0)

- The coordinates are switched with each other

∴ There is no rotation with 180° or -180° because in the rotation with

 180° and -180° around the origin we change only the signs of the

 coordinates without switch them

∴ There is a rotation with 90° are 270° or -90°

- The zero has no sign

- When we rotate the point (0 , 5) by -90° or 270° around the origin

 we will change the sign of x-coordinate and switch the two

 coordinates

∴ The image of the point is (y , -x)

∵ x = 0 and y = 5

- There is no sign for zero, so we switch the coordinates only

∴ The vertex is located at (5, 0)

∴ The Transformations are R(O , -90°) & R(O , 270)

Rewrite the equation in vertex form. then find the vertex of the graph. y=-3x^2-5x+1
amm1812

Answer: y = -3(x + \frac{5}{6})² + \frac{37}{12}, (-\frac{5}{6}, \frac{37}{12})

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

First, you need to complete the square:

y   = -3x² - 5x + 1

<u> -1  </u>   <u>                -1  </u>

y - 1 = -3x² - 5x

y - 1 = -3(x² + \frac{5}{3}x

y - 1 + -3(\frac{25}{36}) = -3(x² + \frac{5}{3}x + \frac{25}{36})

           ↑                     ↓            ↑

                                  \frac{5}{3*2} = (\frac{5}{3*2})^{2}

y - 1 - \frac{25}{12} = -3(x + \frac{5}{6})²

y - \frac{12}{12} - \frac{25}{12} = -3(x + \frac{5}{6})²

y  - \frac{37}{12} = -3(x + \frac{5}{6})²

y = -3(x + \frac{5}{6})² + \frac{37}{12}

Now, it is in the form of y = a(x - h)² + k   <em>where (h, k) is the vertex</em>

Vertex = (-\frac{5}{6}, \frac{37}{12})
