Suppose you are taking the bus home, and can take either Route 51 or Route 82. You know that the Route 82 will arrive at the bus stop in exactly 5 minutes, but because Route 51 is unreliable, you believe that the amount of time until it arrives is uniformly distributed between 0 and 20 minutes. You take the first bus that arrives. Let T be the number of minutes you wait until you board a bus. Find E[T].

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

E[T] = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

A distribution is called uniform if each outcome has the same probability of happening.

The uniform distribution has two bounds, a and b, and the expected value of the uniform distribution is given by:

[tex]E = \frac{a+b}{2}[/tex]

Uniformly distributed between 0 and 20 minutes.

This means that [tex]a = 0, b = 20[/tex]

Let T be the number of minutes you wait until you board a bus. Find E[T].

This is

[tex]E[T] = \frac{a + b}{2} = \frac{0 + 20}{2} = 10[/tex]

E[T] = 10

How to find probability using binomial distribution?

The binomial distribution is based on the binomial theorem which can be written as (a + b)ⁿ = ⁿC₀aⁿb⁰ + ⁿC₁aⁿ⁻¹b¹ + ⁿC₂aⁿ⁻²b²+ ....+ ⁿCₙa₀bⁿ.

In order to use in the probability, there should be events independent of each other and the sum of there probabilities is 1.

Given that,

The probability of making free-throw is 70% = 70/100 = 0.7

Then, the probability of not making free-throw is 1 - 0.7 = 0.3.

The exact 8 free-throws out of 10 implies that there will be 2 throws that are not free.

So, this case belongs to the binomial distribution which can be written as,

ⁿCₓpˣqⁿ⁻ˣ, where p is the probability of success and q is the probability of failure, n is the total number of trials and x is the number of favorable trials.

Now, in order to find the probability of exact 8 free-throws out of 10 can be found using binomial distribution as follows,

P (exact 8 throws) = ¹⁰C₈(0.8)⁸(0.3)²

Hence, the probability of getting exact 8 free-throws out of 10 is  ¹⁰C₈(0.8)⁸(0.3)².

there are 640 students in one school. How many boys are there if it is known that 1/4 of the number of girls is equal to one sixth of the number of boys?

Answers

Answer:

960

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to figure out what 1/4th of 640 is, which is 160.

It says that number is 1/6th of boys, so you multiply by the inverse.

160x6 = 960

well since all of the girls = 4/6ths of the boys that would mean 24/24girls=16/24boys  

16/24 is 66.666666666667% of 24/24

66.666666666667% of 640 is426.666666667 but in my head i would round up so:

Find the equation of the straight line passing through the point (-4,5) and perpendicular to the line y=2x+7.Suppose the equation is y=cx+d.Find c,d.

Answers

Answer:

The equation of the line is:

[tex]y = -\frac{1}{2}x + 3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of a line:

The equation of a line has the following format:

[tex]y = mx + b[/tex]

In which m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Perpendicular lines:

If two lines are perpendicular, this means that the multiplication of their slopes is -1.

Perpendicular to y=2x+7

This means that:

[tex]2m = -1[/tex]

[tex]m = -\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

So

[tex]y = -\frac{1}{2}x + b[/tex]

Passing through the point (-4,5)

This means that when [tex]x = -4, y = 5[/tex]. We use this to find b.

[tex]y = -\frac{1}{2}x + b[/tex]

[tex]5 = -\frac{1}{2}(-4) + b[/tex]

[tex]2 + b = 5[/tex]

[tex]b = 3[/tex]

The equation of the line is:

[tex]y = -\frac{1}{2}x + 3[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

3/4 divided by 1/4 = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

When we divide two fractions, such as 3/4 ÷ 1/4, we flip the second fraction and then we simply multiply the numerators with each other and the denominator with each other.

We also simplify the answers to fraction problems whenever possible.

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

=(3/4)(4/1)

kcf (keep, change, flip)

so we're keeping 3/4 the same then we're changing it from division to multiplication and fliping 1/4 to 4/1 (as shown above)

3*4=12 and 4*1=4

so our new fraction is 12/4

12/4 is an improper fraction and 12 divided by 4 is 3

Find the solution(s) to the system of equations below:
3x - 5y = 3 and y = 3x2 - 4x + 1

Answers

Answer:

The solutions I found to this system of equations are (1, 0) and (⁸/₁₅, -7).  

I keep second guessing and recalculating the second point there, so I'd suggest double-checking it by going through the work yourself.  The first one checks out though.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve this by substitution, where one equation is solved for one variable and substituted in to the other.  As the latter equation is already solved for y, we can simply substitute it into the other:

given:

   y = 3x² - 4x + 1

   3x - 5y = 3

then:

  3x - 5(3x² - 4x + 1) = 3

Which we can then simplify and solve:

3x - 15x² + 20x - 5 = 3

-3x + 15x² - 20x + 5 = -3

15x² - 23x = -8

Now we can find find the solution by completing the square:

15(15x² - 23x) = 15(-8)

225x² - 345x = -120

225x² - 345x  + (23/2)² = -120 + (23/2)²

225x² - 345x  + 529/4 = -120 + 529/4

(15x - 11.5)² = -120 + 132.25

(15x - 11.5)² = 12.25

15x - 11.5 = ± √12.25

15x - 11.5 = ± 3.5

15x = 11.5 ± 3.5

x = (11.5 ± 3.5) / 15

x = 15 / 15, and 8 / 15

x = 1, and 0.5333...

Now that we have x, we can solve for y.

given: 3x - 5y = 3

for x = 1:

3 - 5y = 3

y = 0

for x = ⁸/₁₅:

3(⁸/₁₅) - 5y = 3

5y = 3(⁸/₁₅) - 3

5y = ²⁴/₁₅ - ⁴⁵/₁₅

5y = -²¹/₁₅

y = -²¹/₃

y = -7

So the solutions to this system of equations are (1, 0) and (⁸/₁₅, -7).
