A service station has both self-service and full-service islands. On each island, there is a single regular unleaded pump with t

wo hoses. Let X denote the number of hoses being used on the self-service island at a particular time, and let Y denote the number of hoses on the full-service island in use at that time. The joint pmf of X and Y appears in the accompanying tabulation.
Y
p(x,y) 0 1 2
x 0 0.10 0.04 0.02
1 0.08 0.20 0.06
2 0.06 0.14 0.30

a. What is P(X = 1 and Y = 1)?
b. Compute P(X ≤ 1 and Y ≤ 1).
c. Give a word description of the event {X ≠ 0 and Y ≠ 0}, and compute the probability of this event.
d. Compute the marginal pmf of X and of Y. Using pX(x), what is P(X ≤ 1)?
e. Are X and Y independent rv’s? Explain.

Answer:

a. 0.2

b. 0.42

c. 0.7

d. the solution is in the explanation

e. x and y are not independent

Step-by-step explanation:

a. from the joint probability mass function table,

p(x=1) and p(Y= 1)

= p(1,1) = 0.2

b. prob(0,0)+prob(0,1)+prob(1,0)+prob(1,1)

= 0.10 + 0.04 + 0.08 + 0.20

= 0.42

P(X ≤ 1 and Y ≤ 1) = 0.42

c. prob {X ≠ 0 and Y ≠ 0}

= prob(1,1) + prob(1,2) + prob(2,1) + prob(2,2)

= 0.20 + 0.06 + 0.14 + 0.30

= 0.7

d. we have to calculate the marginal pmf of x and y here.

<u>we have the x values as 0,1,</u>2

prob(x=0) = 0.1 + 0.04 + 0.02

= 0.16

prob(x=1) = 0.08 + 0.2 + 0.06

= 0.34

prob(x=2) = 0.06+0.14+0.3

= 0.50

<u>we have y values as 0,1,2</u>

prob(y=0) = .1+.08+.06

= 0.24

prob(y=1) = .04+.2+.14

= 0.38

prob(y = 2) = 0.02+0.06+0.3

= 0.38

P(X ≤ 1) = prob(x=0)+prob(x=1)

= 0.34+0.16

= 0.50

e. from the joint table we have this,

prob(1,1) = 0.2

prob(x=1) = 0.34

prob(y=1) = 0.38

then prob(x=1)*prob(y=1)

= 0.34*0.38

= 0.1292

therefore prob(1,1) is not equal to prob(x=1)*prob(y=1)

0.2≠0.1292

x and y are not independent

Of the following points, name all that lie on the same horizontal line
lina2011 [118]

Answer:

(-5,7) (5,-7)

Step-by-step explanation:

When you are told to lable, show or name the points that lie on a horizontal line, it basically means that; when a line is drawn, it passes through the selected points without changing the direction when joined together (horizontally).

From the above problem, (-5,7) and (5,-7) lie in the same horizontal line.

For (7,-5) and (-7,5) lie in the same vertical line.

Thereforeour, the answer is (-5,7) (5,-7).

I need help with this problem
guapka [62]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

in trangle NET the angles are 81 and  34 so the other angle must be 180-81-34=65, the other triangle has the same measurments for angles 81-34-65 so the triangles are similar because of AA similarity theorem

Help please ill give brainliest answer
mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

ΔLMN ≅ ΔLQP by (SAA)

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that line (NM) is congruent to the line (PQ), meaning they have the same measure. This is signified by the small red line on each of these sides.

Moreover, it is also given that angle (MNL) is congruent to angle (QPL), this is shown by the red arc around these angles.

Finally one can figure out that angle (NLM) is congruent to angle (PLQ) by the vertical angles theorem. The verticle angles theorem states that when two lines intersect, the opposite angles are congruent.

Thus the two triangles are congruent by side-angle-angle postulate, abbreviated as (SAA).

Can someone explain how you find the answer!
ahrayia [7]

Answer:

21m

Step-by-step explanation:

So for the rectangle, do 5*6, and you will get the area of the whole backyard. Then to get the area of the grass, you do 3*3 to get 9.

Finally, to get the cement, you subtract the area of the grass from the area of the whole backyard so 30-9 to get 21.

5*6=30

3*3=9

30-9+21

Please mark brainliest if you can!

Funny, I think you put the question in 2 times, this is the second time I'm answering this same question by you. :D
