Question Two :
A discrete random variable X has negative binomial distribution,
with 6 successes required each with probability of success 0.4
Determine the value of ...
a) ...E(X).
b) ... Var( X)
c) ... P ( X = 12).

Answers

Answer 1

Using the negative binomial distribution, it is found that:

a) [tex]E(X) = 15[/tex]

b) [tex]Var(X) = 6.67[/tex]

c) [tex]P(X = 12) = 0.0883[/tex]

Negative binomial distribution:

It is the number of trials until q successes of a binomial variable, with p probability of success.

The expected value is:

[tex]E(X) = \frac{q}{p}[/tex]

The variance is:

[tex]Var(X) = \frac{pq}{(1 - p)^2}[/tex]

The probability mass function is:

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{x+q-1,q-1}(1 - p)^xp^q[/tex]

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

In this problem, the parameters are: [tex]q = 6, p = 0.4[/tex].

Item a:

[tex]E(X) = \frac{6}{0.4} = 15[/tex]

Item b:

[tex]Var(X) = \frac{6(0.4)}{(1 - 0.4)^2} = 6.67[/tex]

Item c:

[tex]P(X = 12) = C_{17,5}(0.6)^12(0.4)^6 = 0.0883[/tex]

you agree? Explain.
a

Answers

Answer:

they are the same

Step-by-step explanation:

6x - 2x + 4 ← collect like terms

= 4x + 4

and

4(x + 1) ← distribute parenthesis by 4

= 4x + 4

The 2 expressions are equivalent to 4x + 4

Answer:

No, Jamie is incorrect

Step-by-step explanation:

No, because in the expression 4(x+1)  you will first need to multiply 4 by x, your result is 4x, and then you multiply 4 by 1, you get 4, so the answer will be 4x+4.

Also in the expression 6x-2x+4  ,you will first need to subtract 2x from  6x, your result is 4x ,and then you add 4 , so the answer will be 4x + 4

Our final answer is:

6x-2x+4 = 4x + 4 and 4(x+1) = 4x + 4

? / 6 = 4 / 1

cross multiply:

Answer:

k=6

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex] \frac{ln}{xz} = \frac{nm}{zy} = \frac{lm}{xy} [/tex]

[tex] \frac{36}{k + 3} = \frac{44}{k + 5} [/tex]

Now we just cross multiply

44(k+3)=36(k+5)

44k+132=36k+180

Take k-values to one side

44k-36k=180-132

8k=48

k=6

Now we can use k to find ?

[tex] \frac{44}{6 + 5} = \frac{36}{6 + 3} = \frac{?}{6} [/tex]

once simplified we get:

[tex]4 = 4 = \frac{?}{6} [/tex]

in essence we know that:

so we can cross multiply:

I’m stumped. Can you help me find the answer along with an explanation? Thanks.

Answers

Answer:

An easy way to solve this problem is divide $23.25 by 3 or $54.25 by 7. Either way, you get $7.75. This number represents the amount of money he makes for 1 hour. So with that in mind, the correct equation is:

$7.75x = y

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer: y = 7.75x

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the difference of charges between 6 hours and 8 hours

62-46.5 = 15.5 for 2 hours

15.5/2 = 7.75/hr

62 = 7.75 x 8

Therefore there is no initial charge, and that the relationship is linear

so y = 7.75x

So when you are adding fractions how do you know when you need to simplify the numbers and how do you simplify?

Answers

Let's look at an example.

We'll add the fractions 1/6 and 1/8

Before we can add, the denominators must be the same.

To get the denominators to be the same, we can...

multiply top and bottom of 1/6 by 8 to get 8/48multiply top and bottom of 1/8 by 6 to get 6/48

At this point, both fractions involve the denominator 48. We can add the fractions like so

8/48  + 6/48 = (8+6)/48 = 14/48

Add the numerators while keeping the denominator the same the entire time.

The last step is to reduce if possible. In this case, we can reduce. This is because 14 and 48 have the factor 2 in common. Divide each part by 2.

14/2 = 748/2 = 24

The fraction 14/48 reduces to 7/24

Overall, 1/6 + 1/8 = 7/24
