Answer:

A darts player practices throwing a dart at the bull’s eye on a dart board. Her probability of hitting the bull’s eye for each throw is 0.2.

(a) Find the probability that she is successful for the first time on the third throw:

The number F of unsuccessful throws till the first bull’s eye follows a geometric

distribution with probability of success q = 0.2 and probability of failure p = 0.8.

If the first bull’s eye is on the third throw, there must be two failures:

P(F = 2) = p

2

q = (0.8)2

(0.2) = 0.128.

(b) Find the probability that she will have at least three failures before her first

success.

We want the probability of F ≥ 3. This can be found in two ways:

P(F ≥ 3) = P(F = 3) + P(F = 4) + P(F = 5) + P(F = 6) + . . .

= p

3

q + p

4

q + p

5

q + p

6

q + . . . (geometric series with ratio p)

=

p

3

q

1 − p

=

(0.8)3

(0.2)

1 − 0.8

= (0.8)3 = 0.512.

Alternatively,

P(F ≥ 3) = 1 − (P(F = 0) + P(F = 1) + P(F = 2))

= 1 − (q + pq + p

2

q)

= 1 − (0.2)(1 + 0.8 + (0.8)2

)

= 1 − 0.488 = 0.512.

(c) How many throws on average will fail before she hits bull’s eye?

Since p = 0.8 and q = 0.2, the expected number of failures before the first success

is

E[F] = p

q

=

0.8

0.2

= 4.

On a trip, Alexander bought a ping-pong racket for $13. With the tax, he paid $14.04. What is the tax rate, in percent?
Fed [463]

Answer:

8% tax rate.

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{14.04}{13} =1.08

The 8% (0.08) is the tax rate because the 100%, or 1.00, is the original price of the racket, which was $13.

Find the average value of the function f(x, y, z) = 5x2z 5y2z over the region enclosed by the paraboloid z = 9 − x2 − y2 and the
Katyanochek1 [597]
The paraboloid meets the x-y plane when x²+y²=9. A circle of radius 3, centre origin. 

<span>Use cylindrical coordinates (r,θ,z) so paraboloid becomes z = 9−r² and f = 5r²z. </span>

<span>If F is the mean of f over the region R then F ∫ (R)dV = ∫ (R)fdV </span>

<span>∫ (R)dV = ∫∫∫ [θ=0,2π, r=0,3, z=0,9−r²] rdrdθdz </span>

<span>= ∫∫ [θ=0,2π, r=0,3] r(9−r²)drdθ = ∫ [θ=0,2π] { (9/2)3² − (1/4)3⁴} dθ = 81π/2 </span>


<span>∫ (R)fdV = ∫∫∫ [θ=0,2π, r=0,3, z=0,9−r²] 5r²z.rdrdθdz </span>

<span>= 5∫∫ [θ=0,2π, r=0,3] ½r³{ (9−r²)² − 0 } drdθ </span>

<span>= (5/2)∫∫ [θ=0,2π, r=0,3] { 81r³ − 18r⁵ + r⁷} drdθ </span>

<span>= (5/2)∫ [θ=0,2π] { (81/4)3⁴− (3)3⁶+ (1/8)3⁸} dθ = 10935π/8 </span>

<span>∴ F = 10935π/8 ÷ 81π/2 = 135/4</span>
