Consider a discrete random variable x with pmf px (1) = c 3 ; px (2) = c 6 ; px (5) = c 3 and 0 otherwise, where c is a positive

PtichkaEL [24]

Looks like the PMF is supposed to be

$\mathbb P(X=x)=\begin{cases}\dfrac c3&\text{for }x\in\{1,5\}\\\\\dfrac c6&\text{for }x=2\\\\0&\text{otherwise}\end{cases}$

which is kinda weird, but it's not entirely clear what you meant...

Anyway, assuming the PMF above, for this to be a valid PMF, we need the probabilities of all events to sum to 1:

$\displaystyle\sum_{x\in\{1,2,5\}}\mathbb P(X=x)=\dfrac c3+\dfrac c6+\dfrac c3=\dfrac{5c}6=1\implies c=\dfrac65$

Next,

$\mathbb P(X>2)=\mathbb P(X=5)=\dfrac c3=\dfrac25$

$\mathbb E(X)=\displaystyle\sum_{x\in\{1,2,5\}}x\,\mathbb P(X=x)=\dfrac c3+\dfrac{2c}6+\dfrac{5c}3=\dfrac{7c}3=\dfrac{14}5$

$\mathbb V(X)=\mathbb E\bigg((X-\mathbb E(X))^2\bigg)=\mathbb E(X^2)-\mathbb E(X)^2$
$\mathbb E(X^2)=\displaystyle\sum_{x\in\{1,2,5\}}x^2\,\mathbb P(X=x)=\dfrac c3+\dfrac{4c}6+\dfrac{25c}3=\dfrac{28c}3=\dfrac{56}5$
$\implies\mathbb V(X)=\dfrac{56}5-\left(\dfrac{14}5\right)^2=\dfrac{84}{25}$

If $Y=X^2+1$ , then $X^2=Y-1\implies X=\sqrt{Y-1}$ , where we take the positive root because we know $X$ can only take on positive values, namely 1, 2, and 5. Correspondingly, we know that $Y$ can take on the values $1^2+1=2$ , $2^2+1=5$ , and $5^2+1=26$ . At these values of $Y$ , we would have the same probability as we did for the respective value of $X$ . That is,

$\mathbb P(Y=y)=\begin{cases}\dfrac c3&\text{for }y=2\\\\\dfrac c6&\text{for }y=5\\\\\dfrac c3&\text{for }y=26\\\\0&\text{otherwise}\end{cases}$

Part (5) is incomplete, so I'll stop here.

Answer:

(8.21, -20.79)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the simultaneous equation;

$\frac{a}{b} - \frac{b}{2} = 10\\a - b = 29$

From 2;

a = 29 + b ....3

Substitute 3 into 1;

$\frac{29+b}{b} - \frac{b}{2} = 10\\\frac{2(29+b)-b^2}{2b} = 10\\\frac{58+2b-b^2}{2b} = 10\\58+2b-b^2 = 20b\\b^2-2b-58 = -20b\\b^2-2b+20b -58 = 0\\b^2+18b-58 = 0\\$

Factorize

b = -18±√18²-4(-58)/2

b = -18±√324+232/2

b = -18±√556/2

b = -18±23.58/2

b = -18-23.58/2 and -18+23.58/2

b = -41.58/2 and 5.58/2

b = -20.79 and 2.79

Since a = 29 + b

when b = -20.79

a = 29 - 20.79

a = 8.21

Hence the solution to the system of equation is (8.21, -20.79)

If anyone knows about definite integrals for calculus then please I request help! I

Answer:

$\displaystyle \int\limits^9_5 {\frac{1}{x^3}e^\big{4x^{-2}}} \, dx = \frac{1}{8} \bigg( e^\Big{\frac{4}{25}} - e^\Big{\frac{4}{81}} \bigg)$

General Formulas and Concepts:

Calculus

Differentiation

Derivatives
Derivative Notation

Derivative Property [Multiplied Constant]: $\displaystyle \frac{d}{dx} [cf(x)] = c \cdot f'(x)$

Basic Power Rule:

f(x) = cxⁿ
f’(x) = c·nxⁿ⁻¹

Integration

Integrals

Integration Rule [Fundamental Theorem of Calculus 1]: $\displaystyle \int\limits^b_a {f(x)} \, dx = F(b) - F(a)$

Integration Property [Multiplied Constant]: $\displaystyle \int {cf(x)} \, dx = c \int {f(x)} \, dx$

U-Substitution

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

Identify

$\displaystyle \int\limits^9_5 {\frac{1}{x^3}e^\big{4x^{-2}}} \, dx$

Step 2: Integrate Pt. 1

Identify variables for u-substitution.

Set u: $\displaystyle u = 4x^{-2}$
[u] Differentiate [Basic Power Rule, Derivative Properties]: $\displaystyle du = \frac{-8}{x^3} \ dx$
[Bounds] Switch: $\displaystyle \left \{ {{x = 9 ,\ u = 4(9)^{-2} = \frac{4}{81}} \atop {x = 5 ,\ u = 4(5)^{-2} = \frac{4}{25}}} \right.$

Step 3: Integrate Pt. 2

[Integral] Rewrite [Integration Property - Multiplied Constant]: $\displaystyle \int\limits^9_5 {\frac{1}{x^3}e^\big{4x^{-2}}} \, dx = \frac{-1}{8}\int\limits^9_5 {\frac{-8}{x^3}e^\big{4x^{-2}}} \, dx$
[Integral] U-Substitution: $\displaystyle \int\limits^9_5 {\frac{1}{x^3}e^\big{4x^{-2}}} \, dx = \frac{-1}{8}\int\limits^{\frac{4}{81}}_{\frac{4}{25}} {e^\big{u}} \, du$
[Integral] Exponential Integration: $\displaystyle \int\limits^9_5 {\frac{1}{x^3}e^\big{4x^{-2}}} \, dx = \frac{-1}{8}(e^\big{u}) \bigg| \limits^{\frac{4}{81}}_{\frac{4}{25}}$
Evaluate [Integration Rule - Fundamental Theorem of Calculus 1]: $\displaystyle \int\limits^9_5 {\frac{1}{x^3}e^\big{4x^{-2}}} \, dx = \frac{-1}{8} \bigg( e^\Big{\frac{4}{81}} - e^\Big{\frac{4}{25}} \bigg)$
Simplify: $\displaystyle \int\limits^9_5 {\frac{1}{x^3}e^\big{4x^{-2}}} \, dx = \frac{1}{8} \bigg( e^\Big{\frac{4}{25}} - e^\Big{\frac{4}{81}} \bigg)$

Colby is making a home video consisting of a 5-minute introduction followed by several short skits. Each skit is 6 minutes long.

givi [52]

<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is: There are a total of 16 skits in the video.

From the statement, we know that the total length of the video is 101 minutes and it contains a 5-minute introduction, the rest of the minutes are short skits (which are 6 minutes long each one).

So, we need to write the following equations:

First equation:

$TotalDuration=Introduction+n*Skit$
