The answer is 40 good luck
No the 2 equations are not equal
the -1/10, -1/10 can't be subtracted from 1 3/10g
they are not like terms
the proper equation is
1/5g converts to 2/10g
2/10g - 1g + 1 3/10 g = 5/10g or 1/2g
1/2g - 2/10 is final equation
Answer:
51/4
Step-by-step explanation:
To begin with you have to understand what is the distribution of the random variable. If X represents the point where the bus breaks down. That is correct.
X~ Uniform(0,100)
Then the probability mass function is given as follows.

Now, imagine that the D represents the distance from the break down point to the nearest station. Think about this, the first service station is 20 meters away from city A, and the second station is located 70 meters away from city A then the mid point between 20 and 70 is (70+20)/2 = 45 then we can represent D as follows

Now, as we said before X represents the random variable where the bus breaks down, then we form a new random variable
,
is a random variable as well, remember that there is a theorem that says that
![E[Y] = E[D(X)] = \int\limits_{-\infty}^{\infty} D(x) f(x) \,\, dx](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=E%5BY%5D%20%3D%20E%5BD%28X%29%5D%20%3D%20%5Cint%5Climits_%7B-%5Cinfty%7D%5E%7B%5Cinfty%7D%20D%28x%29%20f%28x%29%20%5C%2C%5C%2C%20dx)
Where
is the probability mass function of X. Using the information of our problem
![E[Y] = \int\limits_{-\infty}^{\infty} D(x)f(x) dx \\= \frac{1}{100} \bigg[ \int\limits_{0}^{20} x dx +\int\limits_{20}^{45} (x-20) dx +\int\limits_{45}^{70} (70-x) dx +\int\limits_{70}^{100} (x-70) dx \bigg]\\= \frac{51}{4} = 12.75](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=E%5BY%5D%20%3D%20%5Cint%5Climits_%7B-%5Cinfty%7D%5E%7B%5Cinfty%7D%20%20D%28x%29f%28x%29%20dx%20%5C%5C%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B100%7D%20%5Cbigg%5B%20%5Cint%5Climits_%7B0%7D%5E%7B20%7D%20x%20dx%20%2B%5Cint%5Climits_%7B20%7D%5E%7B45%7D%20%28x-20%29%20dx%20%2B%5Cint%5Climits_%7B45%7D%5E%7B70%7D%20%2870-x%29%20dx%20%2B%5Cint%5Climits_%7B70%7D%5E%7B100%7D%20%28x-70%29%20dx%20%20%5Cbigg%5D%5C%5C%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B51%7D%7B4%7D%20%3D%2012.75)
Answer:
.85 times the cost to make the shirt
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent cost to make the shirt.
Today, the shirt is in a 15 percent discount from its normal price.
Discount = 15/100 * x = 0.15x
Current cost = Original cost - discount
Current cost = x - 0.15x = 0.85x
The answer is;
.85 times the cost to make the shirt
the greatest possible error is 0.5
