Nina [5.8K]2 years ago
5 0

Answer: If this dont help then im sorry report me i guess

(a) red.

6 ways out of 15 = 6/15 = 2/5

(b) white,

4 ways out of 15 = 4/15  

(c) not red.

That's the complement of (a), so it's 1 - 2/5 = 3/5

(d) red or white.

10 ways out of 15 = 10/15 = 2/3

11. Let X denote the amount of time a book on two-hour reserve is actually checked out, and suppose the cdf is F(x) 5 5 0 x , 0
NISA [10]

Question not properly presented

Let X denote the amount of time a book on two-hour reserve is actually checked out, and suppose the cdf is F(x)

0 ------ x<0

x²/25 ---- 0 ≤ x ≤ 5

1 ----- 5 ≤ x

Use the cdf to obtain the following.

(a) Calculate P(X ≤ 4).

(b) Calculate P(3.5 ≤ X ≤ 4).

(c) Calculate P(X > 4.5)

(d) What is the median checkout duration, μ?

e. Obtain the density function f (x).

f. Calculate E(X).

Answer:

a. P(X ≤ 4) = 16/25

b. P(3.5 ≤ X ≤ 4) = 3.75/25

c. P(4.5 ≤ X ≤ 5) = 4.75/25

d. μ = 3.5

e. f(x) = 2x/25 for 0≤x≤2/5

f. E(x) = 16/9375

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Calculate P(X ≤ 4).

Given that the cdf, F(x) = x²/25 for 0 ≤ x ≤ 5

So, we have

P(X ≤ 4) = F(x) {0,4}

P(X ≤ 4) = x²/25 {0,4}

P(X ≤ 4) = 4²/25

P(X ≤ 4) = 16/25

b. Calculate P(3.5 ≤ X ≤ 4).

Given that the cdf, F(x) = x²/25 for 0 ≤ x ≤ 5

So, we have

P(3.5 ≤ X ≤ 4) = F(x) {3.5,4}

P(3.5 ≤ X ≤ 4) = x²/25 {3.5,4}

P(3.5 ≤ X ≤ 4) = 4²/25 - 3.5²/25

P(3.5 ≤ X ≤ 4) = 16/25 - 12.25/25

P(3.5 ≤ X ≤ 4) = 3.75/25

(c) Calculate P(X > 4.5).

Given that the cdf, F(x) = x²/25 for 0 ≤ x ≤ 5

So, we have

P(4.5 ≤ X ≤ 5) = F(x) {4.5,5}

P(4.5 ≤ X ≤ 5) = x²/25 {4.5,5}

P(4.5 ≤ X ≤ 5)) = 5²/25 - 4.5²/25

P(4.5 ≤ X ≤ 5) = 25/25 - 20.25/25

P(4.5 ≤ X ≤ 5) = 4.75/25

(d) What is the median checkout duration, μ?

Median is calculated as follows;

∫f(x) dx {-∝,μ} = ½

This implies

F(x) {-∝,μ} = ½

where F(x) = x²/25 for 0 ≤ x ≤ 5

F(x) {-∝,μ} = ½ becomes

x²/25 {0,μ} = ½

μ² = ½ * 25

μ² = 12.5

μ = √12.5

μ = 3.5

e. Calculating density function f (x).

If F(x) = ∫f(x) dx

Then f(x) = d/dx (F(x))

where F(x) = x²/25 for 0 ≤ x ≤ 5

f(x) = d/dx(x²/25)

f(x) = 2x/25

When

F(x) = 0, f(x) = 2(0)/25 = 0

When

F(x) = 5, f(x) = 2(5)/25 = 2/5

f(x) = 2x/25 for 0≤x≤2/5

f. Calculating E(X).

E(x) = ∫xf(x) dx, 0,2/5

E(x) = ∫x * 2x/25 dx, 0,2/5

E(x) = 2∫x ²/25 dx, 0,2/5

E(x) = 2x³/75 , 0,2/5

E(x) = 2(2/5)³/75

E(x) = 16/9375

Solving a system of linear equations using the substitution method. <br> 5x+4y=-26<br> 5-x=-6y
yan [13]
Solve for x in 2nd equation
times -1 both sides
x-5=6y
add 5
x=6y+5

sub

5(6y+5)+4y=-26
30y+25+4y=-26
34y+25=-26
minus 25 both sides
34y=-51
divide both sides by 34
y=-3/2
sub back

x=6y+5
x=6(-3/2)+5
x=-18/2+5
x=-9+5
x=-4

To find the surface area of the pyramid, in square inches, Vikram wrote (33.2) (34.2) + 4 (one-half (34.2) (28.4)). What error d
madam [21]

Answer:

B. He used the wrong expression to represent the area of the base of the pyramid.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See attachment for pyramid

Area = (33.2)(34.2) + 4 * \frac{1}{2} * 34.4 * 28.4

Required

Vikram's error

The surface area of a square pyramid is:

Area = Base\ Area + 4 * Area \triangle

Where

Base\ Area = Length * Length

Base\ Area = 34.2 * 34.2

4 * Area \triangle = 4 * \frac{1}{2} * Base * Height

4 * Area \triangle = 4 * \frac{1}{2} * 34.2 * 28.4

So:

Area = Base\ Area + 4 * Area \triangle

Area = 34.2 * 34.2 + 4 * \frac{1}{2} * 34.2 * 28.4

By comparing the calculated expression with

Area = (33.2)(34.2) + 4 * \frac{1}{2} * 34.4 * 28.4

Option (b) is correct
