See explanation below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Definition

The cross product is a binary operation between two vectors defined as following:

Let two vectors [tex] a = (a_1 ,a_2,a_3) , b=(b_1, b_2, b_3)[/tex]

The cross product is defined as:

[tex] a x b = (a_2 b_3 -a_3 b_2, a_3 b_1 -a_1 b_3 ,a_1 b_2 -a_2 b_1)[/tex]

The last one is the math definition but we have a geometric interpretation as well.

We define the angle between two vectors a and b [tex]\theta[/tex] and we assume that [tex] 0\leq \theta \leq \pi[/tex] and we have the following equation:

[tex] |axb| = |a| |b| sin(\theta)[/tex]

And then we conclude that the cross product is orthogonal to both of the original vectors.

Some properties

Let a and b vectors

If two vectors a and b are parallel that implies [tex] |axb| =0[/tex]

If [tex] axb \neq 0[/tex] then [tex]axb[/tex] is orthogonal to both a and b.

Let u,v,w vectors and c a scalar we have:

[tex] uxv =-v xu[/tex]

[tex] ux (v+w) = uxv + uxw[/tex] (Distributive property)

[tex] (cu)xv = ux(cv) =c (uxv)[/tex]

[tex] u. (vxw) = (uxv).w[/tex]

Other application of the cross product are related to find the area of a parallelogram for two dimensions where:

[tex] A = |axb|[/tex]

And when we want to find the volume of a parallelepiped in 3 dimensions:

[tex] V= |a. (bxc)|[/tex]

Answer:

There is enough evidence to support the claim that  the true proportion is in fact different from 0.40  

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Sample size, n = 120

p = 0.4

Alpha, α = 0.05

First, we design the null and the alternate hypothesis  

[tex]H_{0}: p = 0.4\\H_A: p \neq 0.4[/tex]

This is a two-tailed test.  

Formula:

[tex]\hat{p} = 0.3[/tex]

[tex]z = \dfrac{\hat{p}-p}{\sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n}}}[/tex]

Putting the values, we get,

[tex]z = \displaystyle\frac{0.3-0.4}{\sqrt{\frac{0.4(1-0.4)}{120}}} = -2.236[/tex]

Now, [tex]z_{critical} \text{ at 0.05 level of significance } = \pm 1.96[/tex]

Since,

The calculated z-statistic does not lies in the acceptance region, we fail to accept the null hypothesis and reject it. We accept the alternate hypothesis.

Thus, there is enough evidence to support the claim that  the true proportion is in fact different from 0.40

A single taxi fare is more likely to fall between $21 & $24 or be over $24 compared to the mean of a sample of 10 taxi fares.

The question revolves around understanding the distribution of taxi fares and comparing the probabilities associated with the means of samples versus individual observations from a normally distributed population.

(A) Probability of falling between $21 & $24

A single taxi fare has greater variability and thus a greater probability of falling within the range of $21 & $24 compared to the mean of a random sample of 10 taxi fares. This is due to the Central Limit Theorem, which states that the distribution of the sample means will have a smaller standard deviation than that of individual observations, also known as the standard error. For a sample size of 10, the standard error is the population standard deviation divided by the square root of the sample size, which leads to a narrower distribution for the sample means compared to the distribution of individual fares.

(B) Probability of being over $24

The probability of a single randomly selected taxi fare being over $24 is greater than that of the mean of 10 randomly selected taxi fares. This is because individual observations are more spread out, as indicated by the standard deviation of the population, whereas the distribution of sample means is more concentrated around the mean due to the reduced standard error.

(A) The mean of a random sample of 10 taxi fares should have the greater probability of falling between $21 and $24.

(B) The amount of a single randomly selected taxi fare should have a greater probability of being over $24.

The Central Limit Theorem states that the distribution of the sample means will approach a normal distribution as the sample size increases, with the mean of the sample means being equal to the population mean and the standard deviation of the sample means (also known as the standard error) being equal to the population standard deviation divided by the square root of the sample size.

For a single taxi fare, the probability of falling between $21 and $24 can be calculated using the standard normal distribution. We first find the Z-scores corresponding to $21 and $24:

Z-score for $21: [tex]\( Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma} = \frac{21 - 22.27}{2.20} = -0.58 \)[/tex]

Z-score for $24: [tex]\( Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma} = \frac{24 - 22.27}{2.20} = 0.80 \)[/tex]

Using a standard normal table or calculator, we can find the probabilities corresponding to these Z-scores:

P(-0.58 < Z < 0.80) = P(Z < 0.80) - P(Z < -0.58) ≈ 0.788 - 0.278 ≈ 0.510

For the mean of a random sample of 10 taxi fares, the standard error (SE) is:

[tex]\( SE = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}} = \frac{2.20}{\sqrt{10}} \approx 0.70 \)[/tex]

Now we calculate the Z-scores for $21 and $24 using the standard error:

[tex]Z-score for $21: \( Z = \frac{\bar{X} - \mu}{\sigma/\sqrt{n}} = \frac{21 - 22.27}{0.70} \approx -1.75 \)[/tex]

[tex]Z-score for $24: \( Z = \frac{\bar{X} - \mu}{\sigma/\sqrt{n}} = \frac{24 - 22.27}{0.70} \approx 2.53 \)[/tex]

The probability that the sample mean falls between $21 and $24 is then:

P(-1.75 < Z < 2.53) = P(Z < 2.53) - P(Z < -1.75) ≈ 0.994 - 0.040 ≈ 0.954

Comparing the two probabilities, 0.954 for the sample mean is greater than 0.510 for a single fare.

Explanation for (B):

For a single taxi fare, we already calculated the Z-score for $24, which is 0.80. The probability of a single fare being over $24 is:

P(Z > 0.80) = 1 - P(Z < 0.80) ≈ 1 - 0.788 ≈ 0.212

For the mean of a random sample of 10 taxi fares, we calculated the Z-score for $24 as 2.53. The probability of the sample mean being over $24 is:

P(Z > 2.53) = 1 - P(Z < 2.53) ≈ 1 - 0.994 ≈ 0.006

Comparing the two probabilities, 0.212 for a single fare is greater than 0.006 for the sample mean. Therefore, the amount of a single randomly selected taxi fare has a greater probability of being over $24.

Answer:

Enthalpy of Vaporization of substance X = 489.15KJ/mol

Step-by-step explanation:

The Concept of Clausius Clapeyron equation is applied. This equation allows us to calculate the vapor pressure of a liquid over a some range of temperatures. The Clausius Clapeyron equation make use of the assumption that the heat of vaporization does not change as the temperature changes.

The question has data attached to it, I have added the other details and a step by step derivation and application of the Clausius Clapeyron equation was done.

The data, the number of days traveled by randomly selected employees, is classified as quantitative, discrete data with a ratio level of measurement.

The data in question, namely, the number of days traveled last month by 100100 randomly selected employees, is considered quantitative data. This is because it deals with numbers that can be quantitatively analyzed. In terms of whether the data is discrete or continuous, it is discrete. The number of days traveled can be counted in whole numbers (you can't travel 2.5 days for example); thus, it is a countable set of data. Lastly, considering the level of measurement, the data falls under the ratio level as it not only makes sense to say that someone traveled more days than someone else (therefore an ordered relationship), but it also makes sense to say someone traveled twice as many days as someone else (giving us a proportion and a well-defined zero point).

Answer:

d. No, you should examine the situation to identify lurking variables that may be influencing both variables

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

Finding out that there is a regression between two variables is not enough to claim that there is a causation relationship between the two of them. First you have to test if other factors are affecting the response variable, if so, you have to control them or test how much effect they have. Once you controled all other lurking variables you need to design an experiment, where only the response and explanatory variables are left uncontroled, to learn if there is a regression and its strenght.

If after the experiment, you find that there is a significally strog relationship between the variables, then you can imply causation between the two of them.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The game tree for k = 5 has been drawn in the uploaded picture below where C stands for continuing and S stands for stopping:

b) Say we were to use backward induction we can clearly observe that stopping is optimal decision for each player in every round. Starting from last round, if player 1 stops he gets $3 otherwise zero if continues. Hence strategy S is optimal there.

Given this, player 2’s payoff to C is $3, while stopping yields $4, so second player will also chooses to stop. To which, player 1’s payoff in k = 3 from C is $1 and her payoff from S is $2, so she stops.

Given that, player 2 would stop in k = 2, which means that player 1 would stop also in k = 1.

The sub game perfect equilibrium is therefore the profile of strategies where both players always stop: (S, S, S) for player 1, and (S, S) for player 2.

c) Irrespective of whether both players would be better off if they could play the game for several rounds, neither can credibly commit to not stopping when given a chance, and so they both end up with small payoffs.

i hope this helps, cheers

Final answer:

The subgame perfect equilibrium of the envelope game for any finite integer k is that both players will choose to stop in the final round (k) and each player will keep their own money.

Explanation:

Extensive-form tree for k = 5:

Backward Induction:

To find the subgame perfect equilibrium, we start from the last round (round 5) and work our way backwards: 1. In round 5, both players have the choice to stop or continue. Since both players want to maximize their earnings, they will both choose to stop, resulting in each player keeping their own money. 2. In round 4, player 2 knows that player 1 will choose to stop in round 5. Therefore, player 2 will choose to stop in round 4, resulting in each player keeping their money. 3. In round 3, player 1 knows that player 2 will choose to stop in round 4. Therefore, player 1 will choose to stop in round 3, resulting in each player keeping their money. 4. In rounds 2 and 1, both players have the choice to stop or continue. Since both players want to maximize their earnings and they know that the other player will choose to stop in the previous rounds, they will both choose to stop, resulting in each player keeping their money.

Backward Induction Outcome for Any Finite Integer k:

Based on the backward induction analysis, the outcome of the game for any finite integer k is that both players will choose to stop in the final round (k) and each player will keep their own money. This outcome is the subgame perfect equilibrium of the game, as it represents the strategy that maximizes the earnings for both players.

Answer:

Part A: the a quadratic function that reflects the company's revenue.

R = (800+40x)(80-2x) = 64,000 + 1,600 x - 80 x²

Part B: The price should the company charge to maximize its revenue = $60

Step-by-step explanation:

company that sells 800 phones each week when it charges $80 per phone. It sells 40 more phones per week for each $2 decrease in price

Part A: Find the a quadratic function that reflects the company's revenue.

Let the number of weeks = x, and the revenue R(x)

So, the number of sold phones = 800 + 40x

And the cost of the one phone = 80 - 2x

∴ R = (800+40x)(80-2x)

∴ R = 64,000 + 1,600 x - 80 x²

Part B: What price should the company charge to maximize its revenue?

The equation of the revenue represent a parabola

R = 64,000 + 1,600 x - 80 x²

The maximum point of the parabola will be at the vertex

see the attached figure

As shown, the maximum will be at the point (10, 72000)

Which mean, after 10 weeks

The number of sold phones = 800 + 40*10 = 1,200 phones

The price of the phone = 80 - 2 * 10 = 80 - 20 = $60

So, the price should the company charge to maximize its revenue = $60

In this exercise we have to use the knowledge of quadratic function to calculate the value of the company in this way we can say uqe;

A) [tex]R= 64,000 + 1,600 X - 80 X^2[/tex]

B)[tex]V= \$60[/tex]

A) First, we find the a quadratic function that reflects the company's revenue:

[tex]R = (800+40X)(80-2X)\\ R = 64,000 + 1,600X - 80 X^2[/tex]

B)The equation of the revenue represent a parabola:

[tex]R = 64,000 + 1,600X - 80 X^2[/tex]

As shown, the maximum will be at the point 10, which mean, after 10 weeks the number of sold phones

[tex]S = 800 + 40*10 = 1,200 \\P=1,200/200=60[/tex]

To evaluate the triple integral ∭Tx²dV, we need to integrate over the solid tetrahedron T defined by the vertices (0,0,0), (3,0,0), (0,3,0), and (0,0,3).

To evaluate the triple integral ∭Tx²dV, we need to integrate over the solid tetrahedron T defined by the vertices (0,0,0), (3,0,0), (0,3,0), and (0,0,3). Since T is a three-dimensional shape, we need to perform a triple integral.

The limits of integration for each variable are as follows:

x: 0 to 3-y-z

y: 0 to 3-z

z: 0 to 3

Substituting the limits into the integrand Tx², we can then evaluate the triple integral by integrating with respect to x, y, and z in the given limits.

Answer:

y(t)= 11/3 e^(-t) - 5/2 e^(-2t) -1/6 e^(-4t)

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex] Y(s)=\frac{s+3}{(s^2+3s+2)(s+4)} + \frac{s+3}{s^2+3s+2} +\frac{1}{s^2+3s+2} [/tex]

We know that [tex] s^2+3s+2=(s+1)(s+2)[/tex], so we have

[tex] Y(s)=\frac{s+3+(s+3)(s+4)+s+4}{(s+1)(s+2)(s+4)}  [/tex]

By using the method of partial fraction we have:

[tex] Y(s)=\frac{11}{3(s+1)} - \frac{5}{2(s+2)} -\frac{1}{6(s+4)} [/tex]

Now we have:

[tex] y(t)=L^{-1}[Y(s)](t) [/tex]

Using linearity of inverse transform we get:

[tex] y(t)=L^{-1}[\frac{11}{3(s+1)}](t) -L^{-1}[\frac{5}{2(s+2)}](t) -L^{-1}[\frac{1}{6(s+4)}](t) [/tex]

Using the inverse transforms

[tex] L^{-1}[c\frac{1}{s-a}]=ce^{at} [/tex]

we have:

[tex] y(t)=11/3 e^{-t} - 5/2 e^{-2t} -1/6 e^(-4t) [/tex]

Answer:

We can conclude that the value of 1732 is a statistic who represent the sample selected. And the value of 1622 represent the population mean from all the customers with the previous data.

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A statistic or sample statistic "is any quantity computed from values in a sample", for example the sample mean, sample proportion and standard deviation

A parameter is "any numerical quantity that characterizes a given population or some aspect of it".

Solution to the problem

For this case the analyst knows that from previous records that the mean for all the customers (that represent the population of interest) is [tex] \mu = 1622[/tex]

He have a random sample of n =500 customers from the previous month and he knows that 1732 represent the sample mean for the selected customers calculated from the following formula:

[tex] \bar X = \frac{\sum_{i=1}^{500} X_i}{500}= 1732[/tex]

So on this case we can conclude that the value of 1732 is a statistic who represent the sample selected. And the value of 1622 represent the population mean from all the customers with the previous data.

Final answer:

The number 1732 represents the sample mean of monthly credit card purchases for a sample of 500 customers, distinct from the population mean of $1622.

Explanation:

The number 1732 in the scenario given refers to the sample mean, which is the average amount of money spent on purchases last month by the 500 customers in the sample. This contrasts with the population mean, which the analyst knows to be $1622 for all customers holding the credit card. The difference between the sample mean and the population mean can be a subject of further statistical analysis to understand customer behavior and spending patterns better.

Answer:

a) 45% probability that the person is a male, given that he is a democrat.

b) 42.52% probability that the person is a republican given that he is male.

c) 41.67% that an Independent person is a female.

Step-by-step explanation:

A probability is the number of desired people(outcomes) divided by the total number of people(outcomes).

Example.

In a sample of 50 people, 30 are Buffalo Bills fans. The probability that a randomly selected person is a Buffalo Bills is 30/50 = 0.6 = 60%.

So

a) Male given that the person is a Democrat?

There are 100 Democrats. Of them, 45 are male and 55 are female.

So there is a 45/100 = 0.45 = 45% probability that the person is a male, given that he is a democrat.

b) Republican given that the person is Male?

There are 127 males. Of those, 54 are Republican.

So there is a 54/127 = 0.4252 = 42.52% probability that the person is a republican given that he is male.

c) Female given that the person is an Independent?

There are 48 independent people. Of those, 20 are female.

So there is a 20/48 = 0.4167 = 41.67% that an Independent person is a female.

The probabilities that a randomly selected individual is: a) a male Democrat is 0.45, b) a male Republican is approximately 0.425, and c) a female Independent is approximately 0.417.

The subject of your question is probability in mathematics. Given the data of a survey, where a person is randomly selected from a group of 246 people, we are asked to find the probability that the person is:

For a), the total number of Democrats is 100, and out of these, 45 are males. So the probability is 45/100 = 0.45.

For b), the total number of males is 127, and out of these, 54 are Republicans. So the probability is 54/127 ≈ 0.425.

For c), the total number of Independents is 48, and out of these, 20 are females. So, the probability is 20/48 ≈ 0.417.

The confidence interval for the mean fluoride ion concentration in toothpaste at a 95% confidence level is [tex]$0.14 \pm 0.06\%$[/tex].

To calculate the confidence interval for the mean fluoride ion concentration in toothpaste, we use the formula:

[tex]\[ \text{Confidence interval} = \text{Mean} \pm \left( \text{Critical value} \times \frac{\text{Standard deviation}}{\sqrt{\text{Sample size}}} \right) \][/tex]

Given:

- Mean (sample mean) = 0.14%

- Standard deviation = 0.05%

- Sample size (replicate measurements) = 5

- Confidence level = 95%

We need to find the critical value corresponding to a 95% confidence level. Since the sample size is small (n < 30), we use a t-distribution and degrees of freedom [tex]\(df = n - 1 = 5 - 1 = 4\)[/tex].

From the t-distribution table or a statistical calculator, the critical value for a 95% confidence level with 4 degrees of freedom is approximately 2.776.

Now, we can calculate the confidence interval:

[tex]\[ \text{Confidence interval} = 0.14 \pm \left( 2.776 \times \frac{0.05}{\sqrt{5}} \right) \][/tex]

[tex]\[ \text{Confidence interval} = 0.14 \pm \left( 2.776 \times \frac{0.05}{\sqrt{5}} \right) \]\[ \text{Confidence interval} = 0.14 \pm 0.06 \][/tex]

So, the confidence interval is [tex]$0.14 \pm 0.06\%$[/tex].

Therefore, the correct option is [tex]$0.14( \pm 0.06) \%$[/tex].

Answer:

26.76% probability that a randomly chosen golfer's score is above 70 strokes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the zscore of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

[tex]\mu = 68.2, \sigma = 2.91[/tex]

What is the probability that a randomly chosen golfer's score is above 70 strokes?

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 70. So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{70 - 68.2}{2.91}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.62[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.62[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.7324.

So there is a 1-0.7324 = 0.2676 = 26.76% probability that a randomly chosen golfer's score is above 70 strokes.

Final answer:

To find the probability that a golfer's score is above 70, calculate the Z-score using the formula Z = (X - μ) / σ, where X is 70, the mean (μ) is 68.2, and the standard deviation (σ) is 2.91. The result, approximately 0.62, corresponds to a cumulative probability that must be subtracted from 1 to find the probability of scoring above 70. This process estimates there's about a 26.8% chance a golfer scores above 70.

Explanation:

The question asks about the probability that a randomly chosen golfer on the PGA tour has a score above 70 strokes, given that the scores are normally distributed with a mean of 68.2 and a standard deviation of 2.91. To find this probability, we use the Z-score formula, which is Z = (X - μ) / σ, where X is the score of interest, μ (mu) is the mean, and σ (sigma) is the standard deviation.

Calculating the Z-score for a score of 70:
Z = (70 - 68.2) / 2.91 ≈ 0.62.

Next, we consult a Z-table or use a calculator to find the probability corresponding to a Z-score of 0.62, which tells us the probability of a score being less than 70. To find the probability of a score being above 70, we subtract this value from 1.

Note: Specific values from the Z-table or calculator are not provided here. Generally, the process would involve looking up the cumulative probability for a Z-score of 0.62, which might be around 0.732. Therefore, the probability of a score above 70 would be 1 - 0.732 = 0.268. This means there's approximately a 26.8% chance that a randomly chosen golfer's score is above 70.

In order to find the percentage of bulbs with a certain lifespan, one must calculate the z-scores for the given values and find the probabilities using the standard normal distribution, converting these into percentages.

The student's question involves using the properties of the normal distribution to determine the probability of light bulb life spans within certain intervals. To solve these problems, the z-score formula is used, which is (X - μ) / σ, where X is the value of interest, μ is the mean, and σ is the standard deviation.

Remember that the answer will be in the form of a percentage representing the likelihood that any given bulb falls within the specified hour range.

Answer:

a) The 95% confidence interval for the population proportion of college students who work to pay for tuition andliving expenses is (0.4239, 0.5161).

b) The 99% confidence interval for the population proportion of college students who work to pay for tuition and living expenses is (0.4094, 0.5306).

c)The margin of error increases as the confidence level increases.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of [tex]\pi[/tex], and a confidence interval [tex]1-\alpha[/tex], we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

[tex]\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}[/tex].

For this problem, we have that:

[tex]n = 450, p = 0.47[/tex]

a) Provide a 95% confidence interval for the population proportion of college students who work to pay for tuition andliving expenses.

95% confidence interval

So [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975[/tex], so [tex]Z = 1.96[/tex].

The lower limit of this interval is:

[tex]\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.47 - 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.47*0.53}{450}} = 0.4239[/tex]

The upper limit of this interval is:

[tex]\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.47 + 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.47*0.53}{450}}{119}} = 0.5161[/tex]

The 95% confidence interval for the population proportion of college students who work to pay for tuition andliving expenses is (0.4239, 0.5161).

b. Provide a 99% confidence interval for the population proportion of college students who work to pay for tuition andliving expenses.

95% confidence interval

So [tex]\alpha = 0.01[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \frac{0.01}{2} = 0.995[/tex], so [tex]Z = 2.575[/tex].

The lower limit of this interval is:

[tex]\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.47 - 2.575\sqrt{\frac{0.47*0.53}{450}} = 0.4094[/tex]

The upper limit of this interval is:

[tex]\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.47 + 2.575\sqrt{\frac{0.47*0.53}{450}}{119}} = 0.5306[/tex]

The 99% confidence interval for the population proportion of college students who work to pay for tuition and living expenses is (0.4094, 0.5306).

c What happens to the margin of error as the confidence is increased from 95% to 99%?

The margin of error is the subtraction of the upper end by the lower end of the interval, divided by 2. So

95% confidence interval

[tex]M = \frac{(0.5161 - 0.4239)}{2} = 0.0461[/tex]

99% confidence interval

[tex]M = \frac{(0.5306 - 0.4094)}{2} = 0.0606[/tex]

The margin of error increases as the confidence level increases.

Assuming that the speed of light is 299,792,458 m/s, and that in order to bounce of Bill's forehead, hit the mirror and return back to his eyes, light must travel 4 meters (distance to the mirror and back) the time that it takes for light to travel is:

[tex]t=\frac{4}{299,792,458} \\t=1.33*10^{-8}[/tex]

It takes 1.33 x 10⁻⁸ seconds.

Answer:

a) [tex] E(u|X=1)= E(v|X=1) + E(X|X=1) = E(v) +1 = 0 +1 =1+[/tex]

b) [tex]E(Y| X=1)= E(1|X=1) + E(X|X=1) + E(u|X=1) = E(1) + 1 + E(v) + 0 = 1+1+0=2[/tex]

c) [tex] E(u|X=2)= E(v|X=2) + E(X|X=2) = E(v) +2 = 0 +2 =2[/tex]

d) [tex]E(Y| X=2)= E(1|X=2) + E(X|X=2) + E(u|X=2) = E(2) + 2 + E(v) + 2 = 2+2+2=6[/tex]

e) [tex] E(u|X) = E(v+X |X) = E(v|X) +E(X|X) = E(v) +E(X) = 0+1=1[/tex]

f) [tex] E(Y|X) = E(1+X+u |X) = E(1|X) +E(X|X) + E(u|X) = 1+1+1=3[/tex]

g) [tex]E(u) = E(v) +E(X) = 0+1=1[/tex]

h) E(Y) = E(1+X+u) = E(1) + E(X) +E(v+X) = 1+1 + E(v) +E(X) = 1+1+0+1 = 3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we know this:

[tex] Y = 1+X +u[/tex]

[tex] u = v+X[/tex]

with both Y and u random variables, we also know that:

[tex] [tex] E(v) = 0, Var(v) =1, E(X) = 1, Var(X)=2[/tex]

And we want to calculate this:

Part a

[tex] E(u|X=1)= E(v+X|X=1)[/tex]

Using properties for the conditional expected value we have this:

[tex] E(u|X=1)= E(v|X=1) + E(X|X=1) = E(v) +1 = 0 +1 =1[/tex]

Because we assume that v and X are independent

Part b

[tex]E(Y| X=1) = E(1+X+u|X=1)[/tex]

If we distribute the expected value we got:

[tex]E(Y| X=1)= E(1|X=1) + E(X|X=1) + E(u|X=1) = E(1) + 1 + E(v) + 0 = 1+1+0=2[/tex]

Part c

[tex] E(u|X=2)= E(v+X|X=2)[/tex]

Using properties for the conditional expected value we have this:

[tex] E(u|X=2)= E(v|X=2) + E(X|X=2) = E(v) +2 = 0 +2 =2[/tex]

Because we assume that v and X are independent

Part d

[tex]E(Y| X=2) = E(1+X+u|X=2)[/tex]

If we distribute the expected value we got:

[tex]E(Y| X=2)= E(1|X=2) + E(X|X=2) + E(u|X=2) = E(2) + 2 + E(v) + 2 = 2+2+2=6[/tex]

Part e

[tex] E(u|X) = E(v+X |X) = E(v|X) +E(X|X) = E(v) +E(X) = 0+1=1[/tex]

Part f

[tex] E(Y|X) = E(1+X+u |X) = E(1|X) +E(X|X) + E(u|X) = 1+1+1=3[/tex]

Part g

[tex]E(u) = E(v) +E(X) = 0+1=1[/tex]

Part h

E(Y) = E(1+X+u) = E(1) + E(X) +E(v+X) = 1+1 + E(v) +E(X) = 1+1+0+1 = 3[/tex]

we know that

In this problem we have a exponential function of the form

[tex]y=a(b^x)[/tex]

where

y ---> is the number of students enrolled at a college

x ----> the number of years

a is the initial value or y-intercept

b is the growth factor

b=(1+r)

r is the rate of change

we have

[tex]a=15,000\ students[/tex]

[tex]r=4\%=4/100=0.04[/tex]

Answer:

Option (E) 648

Step-by-step explanation:

the 3 digit number can be represented by the blanks as " _ _ _  "

Now,

we have 10 choices ( i.e 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9) available for each place in the blank if no condition is applied.

For the hundreds digit, using the conditions given in the question, we have 8 choices left

as 1 and 0 cannot be included in the hundreds place.

for the tens place

we will have 9 choices left out of 10 ( as 1 choice is less because we cannot have same number as on the hundred place )

similarly, for the ones place we have 9 choices left out of 10 ( as 1 choice is less because we cannot have same number as on the tens place )

Therefore,

Total possibilities = 8 × 9 × 9 = 648

Hence,

Option (E) 648

Answer:

The random variables in this case are discrete since they have a Multinomial distribution.

The probability mass function for a discrete random variable X is given by:

[tex]P(X=x_{i} )[/tex]

Where are [tex]x_{i}[/tex] are possible values of X.

The joint probability mass function of two discrete random variables X and Y is defined as

P(x,y) =P(X=x,Y=y).

It follows that, The joint probability mass function of [tex]X_{3} , X_{4}[/tex] is :

[tex]P(X_{3}, X_{4} ) = P( X_{3} = x_{3}, X_{4} = x_{4} ) =\frac{1}{8} +\frac{3}{8} =\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

In a Multinomial Distribution, variables are independent. Hence, the joint mass function of a pair (X3 , X4) is the product of their individual mass functions. Their specific joint mass function equals P(X3=x3)P(X4=x4) = (n choose x3)(1/8)^x3(3/8)^x4 for x3+x4 ≤ n and x3, x4 ≥ 0.

This problem relates to the concept of a Multinomial Distribution in probability theory. The Multinomial Distribution describes the probabilities of potential outcomes from a multinomial experiment.

In this particular case, you are given that (X1, X2, X3, X4) follows a Multinomial Distribution with parameters n (number of trials) and 4 categories, with known probabilities 1/6, 1/3, 1/8, and 3/8 respectively.

You are asked to derive the joint mass function of the pair (X3, X4). This is actually very straightforward. Due to the properties of a multinomial distribution, these two variables are independent and the joint mass function is simply the product of the individual mass functions.

So the joint mass function of X3 and X4 would be P(X3=x3, X4=x4) = P(X3=x3)P(X4=x4) = (n choose x3)(1/8)^x3(3/8)^x4 provided x3+x4 ≤ n and each of x3,x4 are nonnegative.

The parametric equations of the position of a particle with constant velocity moving along a straight line path from points P(7,2) to Q(2,7) are x(t) = 7 - 5t and y(t) = 2 + 5t.

In this context, the movement of a particle can be represented on a plane using a usual 2D Cartesian coordinate system. The constant velocity of the particle dictates it will always move along a straight line. The straight line path can be found by determining the slope between points P(7,2) and Q(2,7).

The slope m of the line is given by:

m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

Where P = (x1, y1) and Q= (x2, y2). Applying these coordinates gives us:

m = (7 - 2) / (2 - 7) = -1

So, the line equation we have is something like y - y1 = m(x - x1), and substituting in all the values gives:

y - 2 = -1 * (x - 7) which simplifies to y = -x + 9

To get the parametric equations, we can consider the particle moving along the straight line path from P to Q in time t = 1 second. The parametric equations of the position of the particle is therefore:

x(t) = 7 - 5t and y(t) = 2 + 5t

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

3. the diagram has 3 rectangles, 2 triangles

the surface area is the area of each shape

for the first rectangle = length x breadth = 8 x 6 = 48

for the second rectangle = length x breath = 6 x 6 = 36

for the third rectangle = length x breath = 6 x 6 = 36

for the triangles

(base x height )/2 = (8 x 4.5) /2 = 4 x 4.5 = 18

Surface Area =  48 + 18 + 36 + 36 = 138

4.  there are 4 identical rectangles and a base rectangle

4 x (5 x3 ) + ( 5 x5) = 4 x 15 + 25 = 60 + 25 = 85 ft

5. there are 2 triangles of 6 x 8 and a rectangle of 10 x 8

surface area = 2 x( (base x height)/2) + 10x8

2 x ((6 x8) /2 ) + 80 = 2 x (48/2)  + 80 = 48 + 80 = 128ft
