Answer:
14 miles if that's how far he went up
17miles if you're calculating his distance covered
Answer:
8%
Step-by-step explanation:
If you subtract 1 times the original cost, the result is the tax rate:
27/25 - 1 = tax rate = (27 -25)/25 = 2/25 = 8/100 = 8%
The tax rate is 8%.
Answer:6 by 9
I was stuck on thus question too for a while but then I went back and figured everything.
Answer:
The expected cost is 152
Step-by-step explanation:
Recall that since Y is uniformly distributed over the interval [1,5] we have the following probability density function for Y
if 
and 0 othewise. (To check this is the pdf, check the definition of an uniform random variable)
Recall that, by definition
Also, we are given that 
. Recall the following properties of the expected value. If X,Y are random variables, then
Then, using this property we have that ![E[C] = 50+3E[Y]+ 9E[Y^2]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=E%5BC%5D%20%3D%2050%2B3E%5BY%5D%2B%209E%5BY%5E2%5D)
.
Thus, we must calculate E[Y] and E[Y^2].
Using the definition, we get that
![E[Y] = \int_{1}^{5}\frac{y}{4} dy =\frac{1}{4}\left\frac{y^2}{2}\right|_{1}^{5} = \frac{25}{8}-\frac{1}{8} = 3](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=E%5BY%5D%20%3D%20%5Cint_%7B1%7D%5E%7B5%7D%5Cfrac%7By%7D%7B4%7D%20dy%20%3D%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B4%7D%5Cleft%5Cfrac%7By%5E2%7D%7B2%7D%5Cright%7C_%7B1%7D%5E%7B5%7D%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B25%7D%7B8%7D-%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B8%7D%20%3D%203)
![E[Y^2] = \int_{1}^{5}\frac{y^2}{4} dy =\frac{1}{4}\left\frac{y^3}{3}\right|_{1}^{5} = \frac{125}{12}-\frac{1}{12} = \frac{31}{3}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=E%5BY%5E2%5D%20%3D%20%5Cint_%7B1%7D%5E%7B5%7D%5Cfrac%7By%5E2%7D%7B4%7D%20dy%20%3D%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B4%7D%5Cleft%5Cfrac%7By%5E3%7D%7B3%7D%5Cright%7C_%7B1%7D%5E%7B5%7D%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B125%7D%7B12%7D-%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B12%7D%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B31%7D%7B3%7D)
Then
To calculate each of these, divide the number of gallons into the total cost for each gas station.
E) $21.18/6= $3.53 per gallon
F) $28.32/8= $3.54 per gallon
G) $35.60/10= $3.56 per gallon
H) $42.60/12= $3.55 per gallon
Gas cost the least at gas station E) $3.53 per gallon
Hope this helped! :)
