Answer:

The answer is "np(1+p)".

Step-by-step explanation:

N_1 = Number of n tossed heads  

According to N_1, Y = amount of N_1 tossing heads

So, N_1~ Bin(n, p) and N_2 | N_1 ~ Bin(N_1, p)

E(N_1+N_2) & = E\Big[N_1+N_2\vert N_1\Big]\\ &

                   = E(N_1)+E\Big[N_2\vert N_1\Big]\\\\ & = E(N_1) + E(N_1\,p)\\\\ & = np + np.p \\\\ =np+np^2\\\\ =np(1+p)

Which of the following situations would best be modeled by a discrete relationship? a. A teacher counts the number of students i
Nata [24]

Answer:

Option d is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Discrete values are those which take an integer value not in fraction.

Option A is discrete because there will be certain number of students in class say 20 or 30

We can not have 20.5 students

Therefore, option a is correct.

Option B is not discrete because many people can have age say 65 and a half years and weight can be in decimals say 50.5 kgs.

Option C is correct because he is saving a proper integer number of money.

Therefore, option d is correct that is both A and C are correct.

Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

7 Days

Step-by-step explanation:

Miles cost:

$0.10 * 200 = $20


Daily Cost

Her budget at this point is $330 because $350 - $20 (the miles)

$330 / 42.72  = Roughly 7.72

Therefore Zoey can drive for 7 days before her budget runs out.

Carlos has scored 83, 81, and 73 on his previous three tests. What score does he need on his next test so that his average (mean
disa [49]

Answer:

95

Step-by-step explanation:

let x be his mark in the fourth test, then

mean = \frac{83+81+73+x}{4} = 83 ( multiply both sides by 4 )

83 + 81 + 73 + x = 332

237 + x = 332 ( subtract 237 from both sides )

x = 95
