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:
6 3/4 (six and three fourths)
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we must turn 4 6/7 into an improper fraction, AKA 28/7. Now, you can't subtract 1/4 from 28/7, can you? So what you need to do is find the greatest common factor of 4 and 7. The GCF would be 28 (7 x 4 = 28, 4 x 7 = 28).
Now we know that the GCF is 28, we can turn the numbers into 28/28 and 1/28. But wait! We aren't done yet. Now we have to change the numerators. Since you multiplied the denominator (7) by 4 to get 28, you must now multiply 28 by 4 as well. (If you do something to the bottom, you have to do it to the top!) Because of this, we are now at 196/28.
Next, we must do the numerator of 1/28. Since we multiplied the denominator (4) by 7 to get 28, we must now multiply 1 by 7. This gets you to 7/28.
It's finally time to subtract. 196 - 7 is 184, so we are at 184/28. But hey, that's an improper fraction! You have to simplify. 184 divided by 28 is 6.75. 0.75 is 3/4 when turned into a fraction.
Mash 6 and 3/4 together, and you've got your answer! 6 3/4.
