Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Probability distribution of this type is a vicariate distribution because it specifies two random variable X and Y. We represent the probability X takes x and Y takes y by
f(x,y) = P((X=x,Y=y) ,
and given that the random variables are independent the joint pmf isbgiven by:
f(x,y) = fX(x) .fY(y) and this gives the table (see attachment)
(b) the required probability is given by considering X=0,1 and Y =0,1
f(x,y) = sum{(P(X ≤ 1, Y ≤ 1) }
= [0.1 +0.2 ] × [0.1 + 0.3]
= 0.3 × 0.4
= 0.12
Now we find
fX(x) = sum{[f(x.y)]} for y =0, 1 and similarly for fY(y)= sum{[f(x,y)]} for x=0, 1
fX(x) = sum{[f(x,y)]}= 0.1+0.3
= 0.4
fY(y) = sum{[f(x.y)]} = 0.1 + 0.2
= 0.3
Since fY(y) × fX(x) = 0.4 × 0.3
= 0.12
Hence f(x,y) = fX(x) .fY(y), the events are independent
(c) the required event is give by: [P(X<=1, PY<=1)]
= P(X<=1) . P(Y<=1)
= [sum{[f(x.y]} over Y=0,1] × [sum{[f(x.y)]}, over X= 0, 1
= 0.4 × 0.3
= 0.12
(d) the required event is given by the idea that: either The South has no bed and the North has or the the North has no bed and the South has. Let this event be A
A =sum[(P(X = 1<= x<= 4, Y =0)] + sum[P(X =0 Y= 1 <= x <= 3)]
A = [0.02 + 0.03 + 0.02 + 0.02] + [0.03 + 0.04 + 0.02]
A = [0.09] + [ 0.09]
A = 0.18
Pls note the sum of the vertical column X=2 is 0.3
Answer:
The height of the building is of 244.95 feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
We use the Pythagorean Theorem to solve this question.
We have that:
The shadow of 50 feet is one side of the right triangle, while the height h is other side.
The hypotenuse is the distance from the end of the shadow to the top of the building, which is 250 feet.
So
The height of the building is of 244.95 feet.
