Suppose that the probability density function for the length x in feet of some type of fish caught by sport fishermen is given b

y p(x)=14 if 0≤x≤4, and is zero otherwise. What is the probability that a fish caught by a fisherman is between 0.25 and 2 feet long? 1/4 is less than 0.25 feet long?

Answer:

The probability that a fish caught by a fisherman is between 0.25 feet and 2 feet long is 0.4375.

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability density function or p.d.f. for the length <em>x,</em> in feet, of some type of fish caught by sport fishermen is :

p(x) = \left \{{{(\frac{1}{4})\ ;\  0\leq x\leq 4 } \atop{0\ ;\ otherwise} \right.

The probability that a fish caught by a fisherman is between 0.25 feet and 2 feet long is:

P(0.25\leq X\leq 2)=\int\limits^{0.25}_{2} {(\frac{1}{4})} \, dx \\=|(\frac{1}{4})x|^{2}_{0.25}\\=(\frac{1}{4})(2-0.25)\\=0.4375

Thus, the probability that a fish caught by a fisherman is between 0.25 feet and 2 feet long is 0.4375.

6. Craig and James both live 4 miles up a hill. Craig hikes uphill at a rate of 1 mile every two hours.
Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

James

Step-by-step explanation:

James rate:

2x + 2 = 4

2x = 2

x = 1 hour

Rate = distance/time = 4/1 = 4 miles per hour

Craig's rate = 1/2 = 0.5 miles per hour

James is faster

Answer:

7n = 12+ 3n

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing to do is subtract 3n from 7n. This would get you 4n = 12. 4 times 3 equals 12, so n equals 3.

To check your answer. 21 = 12+9. sure enough it matches our answer
