The waiting time W for accessing one record from a computer database is a random variable uniformly distributed between 0 and 28

milliseconds. The read time R for moving the information from the disk to the main memory is 7 milliseconds. The random variable X milliseconds is the total access time (waiting time + read time) to get one block of information from the disk. Before performing a certain task, the computer must access 6 different blocks of information from the disk. (Access times for different blocks are independent of one another.). Compute the followings:
a. E[X]
b. Vae[X]
c. E[A]

Solution :

Let

Waiting time for accessing one record = W

Read time for moving the information = R

Total time for accessing to get one block of information = X

So, the random variable X is defined as :

X = W + R

  = W + 7

a). Calculating E(X)

E(X) = E(W+7)

      = E(W) + 7

      $=\int_{0}^{28}\frac{1}{28-0}w dw +7$

       $=\frac{1}{28}\int_{0}^{28}w dw +7$

       $=\frac{1}{28}\left[\frac{w^2}{2}\right]_0^{28}+7$

      $=\frac{1}{56}\left[28^2\right]+7$

      $=\frac{28}{2}+7$

     = 14 + 7

     = 21

b). Calculating Var(X)

V(X) = V(W+7)

      = V(W)+0

      = V(W)

     = $E(W^2)-[E(W)]^2$

     $=\int_0^{28}\frac{1}{28}w^2 dw-[14]^2$

    $=\frac{1}{28}\left[\frac{w^3}{3}\right]_0^{28}-196$

   $=\frac{1}{28\times 3}\times 28^3-196$

  $=\frac{28\times 28}{3}-196$

 = 65.33

c). Considering A is the random variable that can be defined as follows:

A = 6(W+7)

   =6W + 42

So calculating E(A)

E(A) = E(6W + 42)

      = E(6W) +42

      = 6E(W) + 42

     = 6(14) + 42

     = 84 + 42

     = 126

Ostrovityanka [42]
<h3>Answer: 72</h3>

Divide the 9 inch side into 9 "1 inch" sub-segments

Divide the 4 inch side into 2 "2 inch" segments

Divide the 12 inch side into 4 "3 inch" segments

So we have 9*2*4 = 18*4 = 72 boxes that can fit.

Ms. Sze is grading math tests. A student’s work on a problem is givenbelow: 0.23 × 2.07 = 0.04761 Is the student correct?
nevsk [136]

Answer:

No, he is not correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

0.23 × 2.07 = 0.4761

Multiply 0.23 and 2.07 to get 0.4761.

0.4761=0.04761

Compare 0.4761 and 0.04761.
