Answer:

1) 25%

2) $17.54

Step-by-step explanation:

1) The boots were reduced from $80 to $60, therefore the total amount they were reduced by in terms of money is $20. To find out what percentage $20 is of $80, you divide.

20/80 = 0.25

0.25 = 25 % (to change a decimal to a percentage, you multiply by 100)

2) 20% = 0.20 (to change a percentage to a decimal, you divide by 100)

To find 20% of $87.70, multiply 0.20 by 87.70.

87.70 x 0.20 = 17.54

$(2x-8)(7x+5)=0\iff2x-8=0\ \vee\ 7x+5=0\\\\2x-8=0\qquad\text{add 8 to both sides}\\2x=8\qquad\text{divide both sides by 2}\\\boxed{x=4}\\\\7x+5=0\qquad\text{subtract 5 from both sides}\\7x=-5\qquad\text{divide both sides by 7}\\\boxed{x=-\dfrac{5}{7}}$

An individual who has automobile insurance from a certain company is randomly selected. Let Y be the number of mov- ing violatio

olga2289 [7]

Answer:

a) $E(Y) = \sum_{i=1}^n Y_i P(Y_i)$

And replacing we got:

$E(Y) =0*0.60 +1*0.25 +2*0.1 +3*0.05 = 0.60$

b) $E(Y^2) =0^2*0.60 +1^2*0.25 +2^2*0.1 +3^2*0.05 = 1.1$

And then the expected value would be:

$E(100Y^2) = 100*1.1= 110$

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume the following distribution given:

Y 0 1 2 3

P(Y) 0.60 0.25 0.10 0.05

Part a

We can find the expected value with this formula:

$E(Y) = \sum_{i=1}^n Y_i P(Y_i)$

And replacing we got:

$E(Y) =0*0.60 +1*0.25 +2*0.1 +3*0.05 = 0.60$

Part b

If we want to find the expected value of $100 Y^2$ we need to find the expected value of Y^2 and we have:

$E(Y^2) = \sum_{i=1}^n Y^2_i P(Y_i)$

And replacing we got:

$E(Y^2) =0^2*0.60 +1^2*0.25 +2^2*0.1 +3^2*0.05 = 1.1$

And then the expected value would be:

$E(100Y^2) = 100*1.1= 110$

swat32

Sec t (theta) - 2 = 0
sec t = 2
1/ cos t = 2
cos t = 1/2
Answer:
t = π / 3 + 2 k π , or : t = 5 π / 3 + 2 kπ,
k ∈ Z
