Javier volunteers in community events each month. He does not do more than five events in a month. He attends exactly five event

s 25% of the time, four events 30% of the time, three events 20% of the time, two events 15% of the time, one event 5% of the time, and no events 5% of the time. Find the probability that Javier volunteers for less than three events each month. P (x < 3) = 2 Find the expected number of events Javier volunteers in a month. 3.6 It is given that x must be below a certain value, which limits the rows to use in the PDF table. What is the sum of the probabilities of those rows?

Answer:

P(x < 3) = 25\%

E(x) = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters can be represented as:

\begin{array}{ccccccc}x & {5} & {4} & {3} & {2} & {1}& {0} & P(x) & {25\%} & {30\%} & {20\%} & {15\%} & {5\%} & {5\%} \ \end{array}

Solving (a): P(x < 3)

This is calculated as:

P(x < 3) = P(x = 0) + P(x = 1) + P(x =2) ----- i.e. all probabilities less than 3

So, we have:

P(x < 3) = 5\% + 5\% + 15\%

P(x < 3) = 25\%

Solving (b): Expected number of events

This is calculated as:

E(x) = \sum x * P(x)

So, we have:

E(x) = 5 * 25\% + 4 * 30\% + 3 * 20\% + 2 * 15\% + 1 * 5\% + 0 * 5\%

E(x) = 125\% + 120\% + 60\% + 30\% + 5\% + 0\%

E(x) = 340\%

Express as decimal

E(x) = 3.40

Approximate to the nearest integer

E(x) = 3

Derive the equation of the parabola with a focus at (−5, −5) and a directrix of y = 7
WARRIOR [948]

Answer: The equation of the parabola is (x+5)^2=-24(y-1).

Explanation:

It is given that the focus of the parabola is (-5,-5) and the directrix is y=7.

The standard form of the parabola is,

(x-h)^2=4p(y-k)

Where y=k-p is directrix and (h,k+p) is the focus.

Since focus is given,

(h,k+p)=(-5,-5)

On comparing,

h=-5

k+p=-5      .... (1)

The directrix is y=7.

k+p=7       .... (2)

Add equation (1) and (2),

2k=2

k=1

Put this value in (1).

p=-6

Put p= -6, h= -5 and k=1 in the standard form of the parabola.

(x+5)^2=4(-6)(y-1)

(x+5)^2=-24(y-1)

Therefore, the equation of parabola is (x+5)^2=-24(y-1).
