A/4 = 8/16
cross multiply
(16)(A) = (8)(4)
16A = 32
A = 32/16
A = 2
Answer:
a) 3/64 = 0.046 (4.6%)
b) 63/64 = 0.9843 (98.43%)
c) 1/64 = 0.015 (1.5%)
d) 1/4 = 0.25 (25%)
Step-by-step explanation:
in order to verify that the f(x) is a probability mass function , then it should comply the requirement that the sum of probabilities over the entire space of x is equal to 1. Then
∑f(x)*Δx = 1
if f(x)=(3/4)(1/4)^x , x = 0, 1, 2, ...
then Δx=1 and
∑f(x) = (3/4)∑(1/4)^x = (3/4)* [ 1/(1-1/4)] = (3/4)*(4/3) = 1
then f represents a probability mass function
a) P(X = 2)= f(x=2) = (3/4)(1/4)^2 = 3/64 = 0.046 (4.6%)
b) P(X ≤ 2) = ∑f(x) = f(x=0)+ f(x=1) + f(x=2) = (3/4) + (3/4)(1/4) + 3/64 = 63/64 = 0.9843 (98.43%)
c) P(X > 2)= 1- P(X ≤ 2) = 1 - 63/64 = 1/64 = 0.015 (1.5%)
d) P(X ≥ 1) = 1 - P(X < 1) = 1 - f(x=0) = 1- 3/4 = 1/4 = 0.25 (25%)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
For mixture problems, it is convenient to define a variable to represent the amount of the greatest contributor. Let x represent the amount of 22% solution in the mix. Then 4.8-x is the amount of 10% solution.
The amount of alcohol in the mix is ...
0.22x +0.10(4.8-x) = 0.12(4.8)
Eliminating parentheses, we have ...
0.22x -0.10x +0.10(4.8) = 0.12(4.8)
Subtracting (0.10)(4.8) and combining x-terms gives ...
0.12x = 0.02(4.8)
x = (0.02/0.12)(4.8) = 0.8 . . . . . divide by the x-coefficient
The scientist needs 0.8 L of 22% solution and 4.0 L of 10% solution.
Answer:
i think it's B, no solutions
Step-by-step explanation:
because they are parallel to each other
