Answer:
f(x) =
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the equation of the give cubic function is,
f(x) = p(x - a)(x - b)(x - c)
Here, a, b, c and d are the x-intercepts of the given graph.
Since, x-intercepts given in the graph are x = -5, 1 and 4,
Equation of the curve will be,
f(x) = p(x + 5)(x - 1)(x - 4)
Since, the graph of this function passes through (2, -2) also
-2 = p(2 + 5)(2 - 1)(2 - 4)
-2 = -p(14)
p =
p =
Therefore, equation will be,
f(x) =
1) 4.55
2) Short hit
Step-by-step explanation:
1)
The table containing the score and the relative probability of each score is:
Score 3 4 5 6 7
Probability 0.15 0.40 0.25 0.15 0.05
Here we call
X = Miguel's score on the Water Hole
The expected value of a certain variable X is given by:
where
are all the possible values that the variable X can take
is the probability that
Therefore in this problem, the expected value of MIguel's score is given by:
2)
In this problem, we call:
X = Miguel's score on the Water Hole
Here we have that:
- If the long hit is successfull, the expected value of X is
- Instead, if the long hit fails, the expected value of X is
Here we also know that the probability of a successfull long hit is
Which means that the probabilty of an unsuccessfull long hit is
Therefore, the expected value of X if Miguel chooses the long hit approach is:
In part 1) of the problem, we saw that the expected value for the short hit was instead
Since the expected value for X is lower (=better) for the short hit approach, we can say that the short hit approach is better.
