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.

Solve 3x^2 + 6x+15=0
Elden [556K]

Answer:

The solution of given equation is ( - 1 + 2 i ) , ( - 1 - 2 i )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation as :

3 x² + 6 x +15 = 0

The value of x fro the quadratic equation a x² + b x + c = 0 is obtained as

x = \frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}

So , from given eq , the value of x is now obtain as

x = \frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^{2}-4\times a\times c}}{2\times a}

Or, x =  \frac{-6\pm \sqrt{6^{2}-4\times 3\times 15}}{2\times 3}

Or, x = \frac{\sqrt{-144} }{6}

∴   x = ( - 1 + 2 i ) , ( - 1 - 2 i )

Hence The solution of given equation is ( - 1 + 2 i ) , ( - 1 - 2 i )  Answer

Math question below!!​
nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

x² - 4x - 5 = 0

x² - 5x + x - 5 = 0

x(x - 5) + (x -5) = 0

(x - 5)(x + 1) = 0

x - 5 = 0   ; x + 1 = 0

x = 5      ; x = -1
