Paladinen [302]2 years ago

Answer:

YES

Step-by-step explanation:

For a triangle of sides a, b, c, we must have the following to be true to have a triangle.

a + b > c > |a - b|

b + c > a > |b - c|

a + c > b > |a - c|

if a=8, b=7, and c=9, we have that:

8 + 7 > 9 > 8 - 7, 15 > 9 > 1. TRUE.

7 + 9 > 8 > 9 - 7, 16 > 8 > 2. TRUE.

8 + 9 > 7 > 9 - 8, 17 > 7 > 1. TRUE.

Thus, a triangle can have sides of 8 cm, 7 cm, 9 cm.

The number of hours between successive train arrivals at the station is uniformly distributed on (0, 1). Passengers arrive accor
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

The value of E(X) =\frac{7}{2}.

The value of Var (X)= \frac{91}{12}.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

The number of hours between successive train arrivals at the station is uniformly distributed on (0, 1). Passengers arrive according to a Poisson process with rate 7 per hour.

Let X denote the number of people who get on the next train.

Part (A)

Here, X = N(T), N(t) ∼ Poisson(λt),  and λ = 7

Therefore, E(N(T)|T) = λT

Now find E(X) as shown below

E(X) = E(N(T))

E(X) = E(E(N(T)|T))

E(X) = E(\lambda T) = \frac{7}{2}

Hence, the value of E(X) =\frac{7}{2}.

Part (B)

Now we need to find VAR[X]

Var (X) = Var (E(N(T)|T)) +E(Var (X|T))

Var (X)= E(\lambda T)+Var (\lambda T)

Var (X)= \frac{49}{12}+\frac{7}{2}

Var (X)= \frac{91}{12}

Hence, the value of Var (X)= \frac{91}{12}

The football coach is overseeing the installation of new goal posts on the football field. He is wondering if the goal posts are
Westkost [7]

Answer:

Correct option is D. No, since the ratios of the corresponding sides are not proportional.

Step-by-step explanation:

Please refer to the attached figure

Let height of coach represents by AB = 6 feet

And shadow of coach represents by BC = 4 feet

Let height of goal post represents by DE = x feet

And Shadow of goal post represents by EF = 12 feet.

Since measurement of shadows are at same time. therefore  ratio of height of coach and height of goal post  must be same as ratio of shadow of coach and shadow of goal post.

⇒ 6/x = 4/12

⇒x = 72/4 = 18 feet

So goal post is not at regular height , since expected height is 20 feet while actual height is 18 feet . And if we consider value of x as 20 feet instead of 18 feet , ratio of corresponding sides will not match.

Hence correct answer is D. No, since the ratios of the corresponding sides are not proportional.
