Let the random variable X be the number of rooms in a randomly chosen owner-occupied housing unit in a certain city. Here are th

e distributions of the number of rooms for owner-occupied units and renter-occupied units:
Rooms 1 2 3 4 5
Owned 0.003 0.002 0.023 0.105 0.218
Rented 0.008 0.027 0.287 0.362 0.165
Rooms 6 7 8 9 10
Owned 0.225 0.198 0.149 0.053 0.024
Rented 0.095 0.033 0.013 0.003 0.004

Required:
a. Express "the unit has 7 or more rooms" in terms of X. x≥7. What is the probability of this event?
b. Express the event {X > 7} in words.
c. What important fact about discrete random variables does comparing your answers to (a) and (b) illustrate?

Answer:

Part a:

"The unit has 7 or more rooms" in terms of X is given by the unit which has 7, 8, 9 or 10 rooms.

P{ X≥7}= 0.424

Part b:

The event {X > 7} in words is that the unit has more  than 7 rooms. .

Part C:

A continuous random variable  is given by intervals of numbers

A discrete random variable is the variable that is obtained by counting.

Step-by-step explanation:

Part a:

"The unit has 7 or more rooms" in terms of X is given by

{ X≥7} = {x=7} + {x=8} + {x=9} + {x=10}

the unit which has 7, 8, 9 or 10 rooms.

The probability of this event is given by

P{ X≥7} =P {x=7} + P {x=8} + P {x=9} + P {x=10}

P{ X≥7} = 0.198 + 0.149+ 0.053 + 0.024

P{ X≥7}= 0.424

Part b:

The event {X > 7} in words is that the unit has more  than 7 rooms. This does not include the unit having 7 rooms.

Part C:

A continuous random variable takes all the values in the given interval as in part a.The random variable X takes the values between 7 and 10 inclusive of 7.

A discrete random variable is the variable that is obtained by counting as in part b. The variable X takes the values of the units with 8 , 9 or 10 rooms.

Which do you think is easier to understand and why do you think so, multiplying radicals or multiplying polynomials?
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

I believe that its easier to understand the multiplication of a radical than that of a polynomial.

<h3>How to illustrate the information?</h3>

In mathematics, a radical is the opposite of an exponent that is represented with a symbol '√' also known as root.

A polynomial is an expression which is composed of variables, constants and exponents, that are combined using the mathematical operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.

When multiplying radicals with the same index, multiply under the radical, and then multiply in front of the radical. An example is:

= 3✓2 × 4✓2

= 12✓4

= 12 × 2

= 24

The multiplication of a radical is easier.
