Some parts of California are particularly earthquake-prone. Suppose that in one metropolitan area, 33% of all homeowners are ins

Lina20 [59]

Answer:

(a) The probability mass function of X is:

$P(X=x)={4\choose x}\ (0.33)^{x}\ (1-0.33)^{4-x};\ x=0,1,2,3...$

(b) The most likely value for X is 1.32.

(c) The probability that at least two of the four selected have earthquake insurance is 0.4015.

Step-by-step explanation:

The random variable X is defined as the number among the four homeowners who have earthquake insurance.

The probability that a homeowner has earthquake insurance is, p = 0.33.

The random sample of homeowners selected is, n = 4.

The event of a homeowner having an earthquake insurance is independent of the other three homeowners.

(a)

All the statements above clearly indicate that the random variable X follows a Binomial distribution with parameters n = 4 and p = 0.33.

The probability mass function of X is:

$P(X=x)={4\choose x}\ (0.33)^{x}\ (1-0.33)^{4-x};\ x=0,1,2,3...$

(b)

The most likely value of a random variable is the expected value.

The expected value of a Binomial random variable is:

$E(X)=np$

Compute the expected value of X as follows:

$E(X)=np$

$=4\times 0.33\\=1.32$

Thus, the most likely value for X is 1.32.

(c)

Compute the probability that at least two of the four selected have earthquake insurance as follows:

P (X ≥ 2) = 1 - P (X < 2)

= 1 - P (X = 0) - P (X = 1)

$=1-{4\choose 0}\ (0.33)^{0}\ (1-0.33)^{4-0}-{4\choose 1}\ (0.33)^{1}\ (1-0.33)^{4-1}\\\\=1-0.20151121-0.39700716\\\\=0.40148163\\\\\approx 0.4015$

Thus, the probability that at least two of the four selected have earthquake insurance is 0.4015.

The longest side of a triangle is 4 more than twice the shortest. The third side is 3 more than the shortest. The perimeter is 3

kondaur [170]

Answer:

The shortest side = 6

The third side = 9

The hypotenuse (the longest side) = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's establish the following based on the information given:

The shortest side = x

The third side = (x + 3)

The hypotenuse (the longest side) = (2x + 4)

The perimeter = 31

Since the perimeter is the total of all 3 sides, we are left with this equation:

(x) + (x + 3) + (2x + 4) = 31

From here, combine like-terms and solve for x.

(x) + (x + 3) + (2x + 4) = 31

(4x + 7) = 31

4x = 24

x = 6

Now that we know the value of x, we can apply this to the predetermined formulas to find the measurements of the remaining two sides.

The shortest side = 6

The third side = (x + 3) = 9

The hypotenuse (the longest side) = (2x + 4) = (2(6) + 4) = (12 + 4) = 16

To check, add all of the sides together to make sure they equal 31.

6 + 9 + 16 = 31
