4 0

Answer:

60

Step-by-step explanation:

We can write a proportion to solve

5 made        x made

------------   = -----------

3 missed      36 missed

Using cross products

5 * 36 = 3x

Divide each side by 3

5 * 36/3 = 3x/3

50 = x

She made 60

A fair coin is tossed repeatedly with results Y0, Y1, Y2, . . . that are 0 or 1 with probability 1/2 each. For n ≥ 1 let Xn = Yn
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

False. See te explanation an counter example below.

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we need to find:

P(X_{n+1} = | X_n =i, X_{n-1}=i') =P(X_{n+1}=j |X_n =i) for all i,i',j and for X_n in the Markov Chain assumed. If we proof this then we have a Markov Chain

For example if we assume that j=2, i=1, i'=0 then we have this:

P(X_{n+1} = | X_n =i, X_{n-1}=i') =\frac{1}{2}

Because we can only have j=2, i=1, i'=0 if we have this:

Y_{n+1}=1 , Y_n= 1, Y_{n-1}=0, Y_{n-2}=0, from definition given X_n = Y_n + Y_{n-1}

With i=1, i'=0 we have that Y_n =1 , Y_{n-1}=0, Y_{n-2}=0

So based on these conditions Y_{n+1} would be 1 with probability 1/2 from the definition.

If we find a counter example when the probability is not satisfied we can proof that we don't have a Markov Chain.

Let's assume that j=2, i=1, i'=2 for this case in order to satisfy the definition then Y_n =0, Y_{n-1}=1, Y_{n-2}=1

But on this case that means X_{n+1}\neq 2 and on this case the probability P(X_{n+1}=j| X_n =i, X_{n-1}=i')= 0, so we have a counter example and we have that:

P(X_{n+1} =j| X_n =i, X_{n-1}=i') \neq P(X_{n+1} =j | X_n =i) for all i,i', j so then we can conclude that we don't have a Markov chain for this case.

Michele wanted to measure the height of her school’s flagpole. She placed a mirror on the ground 48 feet from the flagpole, then
yulyashka [42]
Height of the flagpole = x
distance from flagpole to the mirror = 48 ft
height of Michele = 5 ft
distance from Michele to the mirror = 12 ft

Now, set the proportion.

x/48 = 5/12
48 * x/48 = 5/12 * 48
x = 240/12
x = 20

So, the height of the flagpole is 20 ft.

Keith as 11/12 hours to play, he has already played 1/4. which is the best estimate of the fractional part of an hour he has lef
____ [38]

Answer:

The best estimate is greater than 1/2 but less than 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

If you multiply 1/4 by 3/3 (which is also 1), you can change the denominator without changing the value.  So 1/4 is equal to 3/12.

Since keith has 11/12 hours to play, and he has already played 3/12 hours, subtract 3/12 from 11/12 to get 8/12 hours. This is how much time he has left to play.  

If you simplify 8/12 hours, you get 2/3 hours.

So the best estimate would be: greater than 1/2 but less than 3/4.
