Answers

Answer 1

We cannot say anything about their joint distribution or the probability of Y₁ and Y₂ taking specific values, since we only know their means and covariance.

(a)We know that Cov(Y₁, Y₂) = E(Y₁Y₂) - E(Y₁)E(Y₂).

We have Y₁ = X₁ + X3 and Y₂ = X₂ + X3.

Substituting these values, we get:E(Y₁) = E(X₁) + E(X3) and E(Y₂) = E(X₂) + E(X3)

Since X₁, X₂ and X3 are independent binomial random variables, they have the same mean and variance. Thus, E(X₁) = E(X₂) = E(X3) = np = 2p = 2(1) = 2.

Substituting these values, we get:E(Y₁) = 2 + 2 = 4 and E(Y₂) = 2 + 2 = 4.Now, let's calculate E(Y₁Y₂).

We have Y₁ = X₁ + X3 and Y₂ = X₂ + X3. Thus, Y₁Y₂ = (X₁ + X3)(X₂ + X3)

Expanding this, we get:Y₁Y₂ = X₁X₂ + X₁X3 + X₂X3 + X₃²

Taking the expected value of both sides,

we get:E(Y₁Y₂) = E(X₁X₂) + E(X₁X3) + E(X₂X3) + E(X₃²)

[tex]E(Y₁Y₂) = E(X₁X₂) + E(X₁X3) + E(X₂X3) + E(X₃²)[/tex]

Since X₁, X₂ and X3 are independent, [tex]E(X₁X₂) = E(X₁)E(X₂) = np * np = n²p² = 1, E(X₁X3) = E(X₁)E(X3) = np * np = 1, E(X₂X3) = E(X₂)E(X3) = np * np = 1[/tex] and [tex]E(X₃²) = Var(X3) + E(X3)² = np(1 - p) + (np)² = 0 + 4 = 4.Thus, E(Y₁Y₂) = 1 + 1 + 1 + 4 = 7[/tex].

Now, substituting all the values in the formula[tex]Cov(Y₁, Y₂) = E(Y₁Y₂) - E(Y₁)E(Y₂)[/tex], we get:[tex]Cov(Y₁, Y₂) = 7 - 4*4 = -9[/tex]

(b)Using Chebyshev’s inequality, we can say that:[tex]$$P(|X - μ| \ge kσ) ≤ \frac{1}{k^2}$$[/tex]

(where X is a random variable, μ is its mean, σ is its standard deviation, and k is any positive constant)We have already found that E(Y₁) = 4 and E(Y₂) = 4, and we know that the binomial distribution has a mean of np and a variance of np(1 - p). Thus, Y₁ and Y₂ both have a mean of 2 and a variance of 2(1 - p) = 0.

So, substituting the values in the formula, we get:[tex]P(|Y₁ - 2| ≥ k√0) ≤ 1/k²and P(|Y₂ - 2| ≥ k√0) ≤ 1/k²[/tex]

Simplifying this, we get:[tex]P(|Y₁ - 2| ≥ 0) ≤ 1/k²and P(|Y₂ - 2| ≥ 0) ≤ 1/k²[/tex]

Thus, P(Y₁ = 2) = 1 and P(Y₂ = 2) = 1 (since the probability of Y₁ or Y₂ being anything else is 0), and using the formula E(Y) = ΣxP(X = x),

we get:E(Y₁) = 2*1 = 2 and E(Y₂) = 2*1 = 2.

Since E(Y₁Y₂) = 7, we can say that Y₁ and Y₂ are positively correlated (since Cov(Y₁, Y₂) < 0).

b)  The vector [x]g for x = 3a + 4a2 + az is [11; -2; -6] in the basis B.

a. To find the change-of-coordinates matrix from basis A to basis B, we need to express the vectors in A as linear combinations of the vectors in B.

From the given information, we have

a = 4b – b2, a = -b1 + b2 + b3, and az = b2 – 2b3.

We can rewrite these equations as linear combinations:

a = 4b – b2 + 0b3, a = -b1 + b2 + b3, and az = 0b1 + b2 – 2b3.

Using these expressions, we can construct a matrix where the columns correspond to the vectors in A expressed in terms of the vectors in B. The change-of-coordinates matrix C is given by:

C = [4 -1 0; -1 1 1; 0 1 -2].

b. To find [x]g for x = 3a + 4a2 + az, we can use the change-of-coordinates matrix C.

Suppose a certain assignment has a 60% passing rate. We randomly sample 200 people that took the assignment. What is the approximate probability that at least 65% of 200 randomly sampled people will pass? Use normal approximation, find the nearest answer.

A: 0.074

B; 0.809

C; 0.926

D; 0.191

Answers

The approximate probability that at least 65% of 200 randomly sampled people will pass the assignment with a 60% passing rate is 0.191. (option A).

The closest answer is D: 0.191.

To calculate the approximate probability that at least 65% of 200 randomly sampled people will pass an assignment with a 60% passing rate, we can use the normal approximation to the binomial distribution.

First, we need to determine the mean and standard deviation of the binomial distribution.

The mean (μ) is given by the product of the sample size (n) and the passing rate (p):

μ = n [tex]\times[/tex] p

μ = 200 [tex]\times[/tex] 0.60

μ = 120

The standard deviation (σ) is calculated as the square root of the product of the sample size, the passing rate, and the complement of the passing rate:

[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{(n \times p \times (1 - p))}[/tex]

[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{(200 \times 0.60 \times 0.40)}[/tex]

σ ≈ 8.944

Next, we can use the normal distribution to approximate the probability. To find the probability of at least 65% passing, we need to find the cumulative probability up to 65%.

However, since we are dealing with a continuous distribution, we need to apply a continuity correction by subtracting 0.5 from 65 to account for the approximation:

z = (x - μ) / σ

z = (65 - 120 - 0.5) / 8.944

z ≈ -5.106

Using a standard normal table or a calculator, we find that the cumulative probability for z = -5.106 is close to 0.

Therefore, the approximate probability of at least 65% passing is very low.

Among the given options, the closest answer is D: 0.191.

However, it's important to note that this is an approximation and the actual probability may vary.

a) Calculate the probability that Audrey will run at least two
marathons in a part

Answers

Given that the number of marathons that Audrey runs in any given year can be modeled by a Poisson distribution with mean 1.3.

Part a) To find the probability that Audrey will run at least two marathons in a part, we need to use the Poisson distribution.

The formula for the Poisson distribution is:

P(X = k) = (e^-λ * λ^k) / k!

Where:X is the number of successes.λ is the mean value.e is the base of the natural logarithm = 2.71828k is the number of successes.

k! is the factorial of k.

The probability of Audrey running at least two marathons is given by:

P(X ≥ 2) = 1 - P(X < 2)P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1)P(X = k) = (e^-λ * λ^k) / k!

Let's calculate λ first.λ = 1.3

Now, let's calculate P(X < 2).P(X = 0) = (e^-λ * λ^0) / 0! = (e^-1.3 * 1.3^0) / 1 = 0.2725P(X = 1) = (e^-λ * λ^1) / 1! = (e^-1.3 * 1.3^1) / 1 = 0.3558P(X < 2) = 0.2725 + 0.3558 = 0.6283P(X ≥ 2) = 1 - P(X < 2) = 1 - 0.6283 = 0.3717

Therefore, the probability that Audrey will run at least two marathons in a part is 0.3717 or approximately 0.372. Answer: 0.372.

In a lottery game, a player pays $1 and picks six numbers from 1 to 29. This gives 475020 possible ways of choosing six numbers, and just one winning combination. If the player matches all six numbers, they win the jackpot of $50,000, which is $49,999 dollars that they take home after subtracting the $1 ticket cost. Otherwise, they lose $1. What is the expected value of this game?

Answers

If there is 475020 possible ways of choosing six numbers then the expected value of this game is -$0.10.

To calculate the expected value, we need to multiply each possible outcome by its corresponding probability and sum them up. In this case, there are two possible outcomes: winning the jackpot with a probability of 1/475020 or losing with a probability of (475020-1)/475020.

The expected value can be calculated as follows:

Expected Value = (Probability of Winning * Winnings) + (Probability of Losing * Losses)

             = (1/475020 * $49,999) + ((475020-1)/475020 * -$1)

             = $0.10 - $0.10

             = -$0.10

The negative sign indicates that, on average, the player can expect to lose $0.10 per game they play.

This means that over the long run, if the player were to play this game many times, they can expect to lose an average of $0.10 per game. Therefore, from a financial standpoint, the expected value of this game is unfavorable for the player.

The correct answer is d. More accurate and more reliable than a 90% CI. 95% confidence interval is less accurate and less reliable than a 99% confidence interval, which is incorrect.

When comparing confidence intervals, a higher confidence level indicates greater reliability, meaning there is a higher probability that the interval contains the true population parameter. A 95% confidence interval is more reliable than a 90% confidence interval because it provides a narrower range of values. Therefore, option b is incorrect.

Regarding accuracy, a narrower confidence interval indicates higher accuracy because it provides a more precise estimate of the population parameter. Since a 95% confidence interval is narrower than a 99% confidence interval, it is more accurate in capturing the true value of the parameter. Therefore, option a is incorrect.

for all n ≥ 1, prove the following: p(n) = 12 22 32….n2 = {n(n 1) (2n 1)} / 6

Answers

By completing the base case and the inductive step, we have proven that the statement p(n) = 12^2 + 22^2 + ... + n^2 = (n(n + 1)(2n + 1)) / 6 holds for all n ≥ 1.

To prove the statement p(n) = 12^2 + 22^2 + ... + n^2 = (n(n + 1)(2n + 1)) / 6 for all n ≥ 1, we can use mathematical induction.

Step 1: Base case (n = 1)

When n = 1, the statement becomes p(1) = 12^2 = 1. This is true since 1^2 = 1, and (1(1 + 1)(2(1) + 1)) / 6 = 1. So the statement holds true for the base case.

Step 2: Inductive hypothesis

Assume that the statement is true for some arbitrary positive integer k, i.e., p(k) = 12^2 + 22^2 + ... + k^2 = (k(k + 1)(2k + 1)) / 6.

Step 3: Inductive step

We need to prove that the statement holds for k + 1, i.e., p(k + 1) = 12^2 + 22^2 + ... + (k + 1)^2 = ((k + 1)(k + 2)(2(k + 1) + 1)) / 6.

To prove this, we start with the left-hand side (LHS) and try to transform it into the right-hand side (RHS).

LHS: p(k + 1) = 12^2 + 22^2 + ... + k^2 + (k + 1)^2

Using the inductive hypothesis, we can rewrite the first k terms:

LHS: p(k + 1) = (k(k + 1)(2k + 1)) / 6 + (k + 1)^2

Now, let's simplify the expression:

LHS: p(k + 1) = (k(k + 1)(2k + 1) + 6(k + 1)^2) / 6

Expanding and factoring out (k + 1):

LHS: p(k + 1) = ((k^2 + k)(2k + 1) + 6(k + 1)^2) / 6

Simplifying further:

LHS: p(k + 1) = (2k^3 + 3k^2 + k + 6k^2 + 12k + 6) / 6

LHS: p(k + 1) = (2k^3 + 9k^2 + 13k + 6) / 6

Factoring out a 2:

LHS: p(k + 1) = (2(k^3 + 4.5k^2 + 6.5k + 3)) / 6

LHS: p(k + 1) = (k^3 + 4.5k^2 + 6.5k + 3) / 3

Simplifying further:

LHS: p(k + 1) = ((k + 1)(k + 2)(2(k + 1) + 1)) / 6

RHS: ((k + 1)(k + 2)(2(k + 1) + 1)) / 6

Since the LHS is equal to the RHS, we have shown that if the statement is true for k, it is also true for k + 1.

the angle of elevation from the tip of a building's shadow to the top of the building is 70° and the distance is 180 feet. find the height of the building to the nearest foot.

Answers

The height of the building is approximately 167 feet.

The angle of elevation from the tip of a building's shadow to the top of the building is 70° and the distance is 180 feet. We need to find the height of the building to the nearest foot. The height of the building can be determined using the right triangle trigonometry, with the shadow length being the base of the right triangle, the height of the building being the perpendicular to the base, and the distance from the tip of the shadow to the top of the building being the hypotenuse.

Let's start with the given angle of elevation which is 70°.sin 70° = opposite/ hypotenuse cos 70° = adjacent/hypotenuse

Let x be the height of the building. sin 70° = x/180 feetcos 70° = (180 ft + x)/180 feet

Therefore, x = sin 70° × 180 feet ≈ 167 feet (rounded to the nearest foot)

when output is 50, fixed costs are $1,000, and variable costs are $2,000, what is the average total cost?

Answers

To find the average total cost when the output is 50, the fixed costs are $1,000, and the variable costs are $2,000, we need to calculate the total cost and divide it by the output quantity.

The average total cost is calculated by dividing the total cost by the output quantity. The total cost consists of fixed costs and variable costs.

In this case, the fixed costs are $1,000, and the variable costs are $2,000. To find the total cost, we sum the fixed costs and variable costs:

Total cost = Fixed costs + Variable costs = $1,000 + $2,000 = $3,000.

Since the output is 50, we can divide the total cost by the output quantity to find the average total cost:

Average total cost = Total cost / Output quantity = $3,000 / 50 = $60 per unit.

Therefore, the average total cost when the output is 50, fixed costs are $1,000, and variable costs are $2,000 is $60 per unit.

Answers

In this question, we are supposed to use a given transformation to evaluate the integral of 4x² da, where R is the region bounded by the ellipse 25x² + 9y² = 225, with x = 3u and y = 5v, Let us begin by finding the determinant of the Jacobian matrix J.

The Jacobian matrix for the given transformation isJ(u,v) =  |3 0||0 5| = 15∴ |J(u,v)| = 15The integral of the function over the region R is given by∬R 4x² dadxdy Now, making the transformation u = x/3 and v = y/5, we have x = 3u and y = 5v.By substituting these values in the equation of the ellipse, we get,25x² + 9y² = 22525(3u)² + 9(5v)² = 225225u² + 45v² = 25u² + 9v² = 1Now, the integral becomes,∬R 4x² dadxdy = ∬R 4(3u)² (15) dadudv= 540∬R u² dadudvWe can transform the double integral over R from the uv-plane to the xy-plane as follows:

∬R u² dadudv = ∬R u² |J(u,v)| dadxdy

Thus, we have,

∬R 4x² dadxdy = 540

∬R u² dadudv = 540∬R u² |J(u,v)|

dadxdy= 540∬R (x/3)² (y/5) 15 dxdy

Since we know the equation of the ellipse to be 25x² + 9y² = 225, we can express the limits of integration in terms of u and v as follows:

∫(5/3)√(1 - (v/3)²) to -∫(5/3)√(1 - (v/3)²)∫-3√(1 - (v/5)²) to 3√(1 - (v/5)²)

On making the substitution, we get

∬R 4x²

dadxdy= 540 ∫(-5/3) to (5/3) ∫-3√(1 - (v/5)²) to 3√(1 - (v/5)²) [(3u)² .

(5v) 15] dudv= 1350 ∫-5/3 to 5/3 ∫-3√(1 - (v/5)²) to 3√(1 - (v/5)²) u²v

du dv= 1350 ∫-5/3 to 5/3 v ∫-3√(1 - (v/5)²) to 3√(1 - (v/5)²) u²

du dv= 1350 ∫-5/3 to 5/3 v [(u³/3)] -3√(1 - (v/5)²) 3√(1 - (v/5)²)

dv= 1350 ∫-5/3 to 5/3 v [u³/3] from -3√(1 - (v/5)²) to 3√(1 - (v/5)²)

dv= 1350 ∫-5/3 to 5/3 [(3√(1 - (v/5)²)³/3) - (-3√(1 - (v/5)²)³/3)]

dv= 1350 ∫-5/3 to 5/3 36v√(1 - (v/5)²) dv= 1350 [ 5²/4 ] π= 16875/4 π

determine whether the series converges or diverges. [infinity] n − 1 n 5n n = 1

Answers

To determine whether the given series converges or diverges, we need to analyze the behavior of the terms as n approaches infinity.

The series [infinity] n − 1 n 5n n = 1 can be written as Σ (n - 1) / ([tex]n^5[/tex]) from n = 1 to infinity.

To analyze the convergence or divergence of this series, we can use the Limit Comparison Test. Let's consider the series Σ (n - 1) / ([tex]n^5[/tex]) and compare it to the series Σ 1 / ([tex]n^4[/tex]).

By taking the limit as n approaches infinity of the ratio of the terms, we have:

lim (n → ∞) ((n - 1) / ([tex]n^5[/tex])) / (1 / ([tex]n^4[/tex]))

= lim (n → ∞) (n - 1) / n

= 1.

Since the limit is a finite nonzero value, the series Σ (n - 1) / ([tex]n^5[/tex]) and Σ 1 / ([tex]n^4[/tex]) have the same convergence behavior.

Now, we know that the series Σ 1 / ([tex]n^4[/tex]) is a p-series with p = 4, and it converges because p > 1.

Therefore, by the Limit Comparison Test, we can conclude that the series [infinity] n − 1 n 5n n = 1 converges.

the relative frequency of event a in an experiment is 13. 1 3 . if the experiment is performed 30 30 times, how many times should you expect event a to occur?

Answers

In the given experiment, if the relative frequency of event A is 13.13% and the experiment is performed 30 times, you can expect event A to occur approximately 3.939 times.

The relative frequency of an event is the ratio of the number of times the event occurs to the total number of trials or experiments conducted. In this case, the relative frequency of event A is 13.13%. To calculate the expected number of occurrences of event A, we need to multiply the relative frequency by the total number of experiments.

First, we convert the relative frequency to a decimal by dividing it by 100: 13.13/100 = 0.1313. Next, we multiply this decimal by the total number of experiments, which is 30: 0.1313 * 30 = 3.939. Therefore, you can expect event A to occur approximately 3.939 times in the 30 experiments.

It's important to note that the expected number of occurrences is an average based on the relative frequency. In reality, the actual number of occurrences may vary from the expected value due to the randomness inherent in the experiment. However, over a large number of trials, the expected number of occurrences should converge towards the relative frequency.

Answers

Conducting a one-sample z-test to determine whether taking a pill will increase IQ scores would involve comparing the sample mean IQ score to the population mean of 100 using a z-value calculated from the sample data and population parameters.

Once we have the value of z, we can compare it to a critical value at a chosen level of significance. If the calculated z-value falls within the rejection region (i.e., the area outside of the critical values), we reject the null hypothesis in favor of the alternative hypothesis.

It's important to note that conducting a one-sample z-test assumes that the sample is a randomly selected representative sample from the population, and that the data are normally distributed. Additionally, other factors such as placebo effects or individual differences could also affect IQ scores and should be accounted for in the study design and analysis.

A body is projected up a plane inclined at 45° to the horizontal with an initial velocity of 40m/s at an angle æ to the slope. Find the two possible values that give a slope up to 60m

Answers

Simplifying and solving these equations will provide us with the two possible values for the angle æ that give a slope up to 60m.

To find the two possible values of the angle æ that give a slope up to 60m, we can use the equations of projectile motion and the properties of right-angled triangles.

Let's break down the given information:

- The body is projected up a plane inclined at 45° to the horizontal.

- The initial velocity of the body is 40 m/s.

- The body is projected at an angle æ to the slope.

Since the slope is inclined at 45° to the horizontal, it forms a right-angled triangle with the vertical component of the initial velocity (40 * sin(æ)) and the horizontal component of the initial velocity (40 * cos(æ)).

The distance covered along the slope can be found using the equation: distance = initial velocity * time + 0.5 * acceleration * time^2. However, since the body is projected up the slope, the acceleration is in the opposite direction and can be considered negative.

Given that the slope is up to 60m, we can set up the equation:

60 = (40 * sin(æ)) * t - 0.5 * g * t^2

Here, g represents the acceleration due to gravity (approximately 9.8 m/s^2), and t represents the time taken to reach a slope of 60m.

To solve this equation, we need to consider both the positive and negative solutions for t. Let's solve the equation for t using both cases:

1. Positive solution for t:

40 * sin(æ) * t - 0.5 * g * t^2 = 60

2. Negative solution for t:

40 * sin(æ) * (-t) - 0.5 * g * (-t)^2 = 60

Answers

Susan needs to use a length of 20 feet for the floor of her treehouse.

In the scale drawing, the ratio of 2.5 inches to 3 feet represents the relationship between the actual measurements and the scaled measurements. To find the length of the floor in feet, we can set up a proportion using the given scale. Since 2.5 inches corresponds to 3 feet, we can write the proportion as follows:

2.5 inches / 3 feet = x inches / 20 feet

To solve for x, we cross-multiply and divide:

2.5 inches * 20 feet = 3 feet * x inches

50 inches * feet = 3x inches * feet

50 = 3x

Dividing both sides by 3:

50 / 3 = x

x ≈ 16.67

Therefore, the length of the floor in inches is approximately 16.67 inches. However, since we need the answer in feet, we round it to the nearest whole number, which is 17 feet. Therefore, Susan must use a length of 17 feet for the floor of her treehouse.
