Answer:

  15 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Zeno's last jump was 2 meters, so another jump half as far adds 1 meter to the 14 m total.

After 4 jumps, Zeno would have jumped 15 meters from his starting place.

<em>Comment on the question</em>

The given distances give a total "after 3 jumps." The question asks for a total "after 4 jumps." It is not clear whether that is 4 jumps total, or 4 more jumps. In the above, we have assumed it is 4 jumps total.

Anon25 [30]

Answer:

A. E(x) = 1/n×n(n+1)/2

B. E(x²) = 1/n

Step-by-step explanation:

The n candidates for a job have been ranked 1,2,3....n. Let x be the rank of a randomly selected candidate. Therefore, the PMF of X is given as

P(x) = {1/n, x = 1,2...n}

Therefore,

Expectation of X

E(x) = summation {xP(×)}

= summation {X×1/n}

= 1/n summation{x}

= 1/n×n(n+1)/2

= n+1/2

Thus, E(x) = 1/n×n(n+1)/2

Value of E(x²)

E(x²) = summation {x²P(×)}

= summation{x²×1/n}

= 1/n
