Answer:
E(X) = 17.4
Step-by-step explanation:
We can calculate the expected value of a random X variable that is discrete (X takes specific values ) as:
E(X) = ∑xp(x) where x are the specific values of x and p(x) the probability associated with this x value.
In this way the expexted value is
E(X) = ∑xp(x) =(16*0.6)+(18*0.3)+(20*0.2) = 8+5.4+4 = 17.4
Answer:
the 24-inch rod
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer to this question is c)
Awnser:
9,12,18
Step-by-step explanation:
you have to add the smallest numbers together and it has to be greater that the greatest number.
9+12= 21
21>18
Correct answers are:
(1) <span>28, 141 known cases
(2) 79913.71 known cases after six weeks (round off according to the options given)
(3) After approx. 9 weeks (9.0142 in decimal)
Explanations:
(1) Put x = 0 in given equation
</span><span>y= 28, 141 (1.19)^x
</span><span>y= 28, 141 (1.19)^(0)
</span>y= 28, 141
(2) Put x = 6 in the given equation:
<span>y= 28, 141 (1.19)^x
</span><span>y= 28, 141 (1.19)^(6)
</span>y= 79913.71
(3) Since
y= 28, 141 (1.19)^x
And y = <span>135,000
</span>135,000 = 28, 141 (1.19)^x
135,000/28, 141 = (1.19)^x
taking "ln" on both sides:
ln(4.797) = ln(1.19)^x
ln(4.797) = xln(1.19)
x = 9.0142 (in weeks)
