Assume that you assign the following subjective probabilities for your final grade in your econometrics course (the standard GPA

rodikova [14]

Answer:

$E(X) = 4*0.2 +3*0.5+ 2*0.2 +1*0.8+ 0*0.02= 2.78$

So then the best answer for this case would be:

C. 2.78

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have the following probabability distribution function given:

Score P(X)

A= 4.0 0.2

B= 3.0 0.5

C= 2.0 0.2

D= 1.0 0.08

F= 0.0 0.02

______________

Total 1.00

The expected value of a random variable X is the n-th moment about zero of a probability density function f(x) if X is continuous, or the weighted average for a discrete probability distribution, if X is discrete.

If we use the definition of expected value given by:

$E(X) = \sum_{i=1}^n X_i P(X_I)$

And if we replace the values that we have we got:

$E(X) = 4*0.2 +3*0.5+ 2*0.2 +1*0.8+ 0*0.02= 2.78$

So then the best answer for this case would be:

C. 2.78

hank is working in a silver mine 10ft below the surface. he descends until he reaches a point 57ft below the surface. how many f

Dmitry [639]

Depth of Hank descends = The point he reached - the point where he worked initially

= 57 - 10

= 47 ft

Hence, Hank descends 47 ft.

In the equation y=x2 , which of the following explains the unit rate?

muminat

The only logical answer is, 2 because the unit rate is value of y when x=1.

y=(1)2
y=2.

As I stated in the same question, the "Unit Rate" is not hard, it's just slope. They are trying to trick you by saying "unit rate". Your unit rate is x2.

A real estate agent has 1212 properties that she shows. She feels that there is a 50P% chance of selling any one property during

forsale [732]

Answer:

0.6127 = 61.27% probability of selling no more than 6 properties in one week.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each property, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it is sold, or it is not. The probability of a property being sold is independent of any other property. This means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

In which $C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

And p is the probability of X happening.

12 properties

This means that $n = 12$

She feels that there is a 50% chance of selling any one property during a week.

This means that $p = 0.5$

Compute the probability of selling no more than 6 properties in one week.

This is:

$P(X \leq 6) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) + P(X = 6)$

In which

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 0) = C_{12,0}.(0.5)^{0}.(0.5)^{12} = 0.0002$

$P(X = 1) = C_{12,1}.(0.5)^{1}.(0.5)^{11} = 0.0029$

$P(X = 2) = C_{12,2}.(0.5)^{2}.(0.5)^{10} = 0.0161$

$P(X = 3) = C_{12,3}.(0.5)^{3}.(0.5)^{9} = 0.0537$

$P(X = 4) = C_{12,4}.(0.5)^{4}.(0.5)^{8} = 0.1208$

$P(X = 5) = C_{12,5}.(0.5)^{5}.(0.5)^{7} = 0.1934$

$P(X = 6) = C_{12,6}.(0.5)^{6}.(0.5)^{6} = 0.2256$

$P(X \leq 6) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) + P(X = 6) = 0.0002 + 0.0029 + 0.0161 + 0.0537 + 0.1208 + 0.1934 + 0.2256 = 0.6127$

0.6127 = 61.27% probability of selling no more than 6 properties in one week.
