Answer:
a) P ( 3 ≤X≤ 5 ) = 0.02619
b) E(X) = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
- The CDF of a random variable X = { 0 , 1 , 2 , 3 , .... } is given as:
Find:
a.Calculate the probability that 3 ≤X≤ 5
b) Find the expected value of X, E(X), using the fact that. (Hint: You will have to evaluate an infinite sum, but that will be easy to do if you notice that
Solution:
- The CDF gives the probability of (X < x) for any value of x. So to compute the P ( 3 ≤X≤ 5 ) we will set the limits.

- The Expected Value can be determined by sum to infinity of CDF:
E(X) = Σ ( 1 - F(X) )

E(X) = Limit n->∞ [1 - 1 / ( n + 2 ) ]
E(X) = 1

It would take 5/3 or 1 2/3 hours to use a package of napkins.
Step-by-step explanation:
1/3=1/5
2/3=2/5
3/3=3/5
4/3=4/5
5/3=5/5
5/3= 1 2/3
Answer:
I am pretty sure it is the 3rd one

Answer:
75
Step-by-step explanation:
f(1) = 7
f(n) = 3f(n-1) + 3
So what you are trying to do here is find the recursive value (that's what it is called) for f(n). Computers love this sort of thing, but we humans have to do it slowly and carefully.
So let's try f(2)
That means that f(2) = 3*f(n-1) + 3
but if f(2) is used it means that you have to know f(2-1) which is just f(1) and we know that.
so f(2) = 3*f(1)+3
f(2) = 3*7 + 3
f(2) = 21 + 3
f(2) = 24
Now do it again. We now know F(2), so we should be able to find f(3)
f(3) = 3*f(3 - 1) + 3
f(3) = 3*f(2) + 3 We know that f(2) = 24
f(3) = 3* 24 + 3
f(3) = 72 + 3
f(3) = 75
