HELP PLEASE!!! The expected value of a random variable X is 35. The variable is transformed
by multiplying X by 4 and then adding 1 to it. Find the expected value (mean)
of the transformed variable. A. 135 B.117 C. 154 D.141

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Expected value x= 35

linear transformation is defined as a + bx

here, b=4, a=1

The transformation is [tex]z=1+4x[/tex]

now, expected value, [tex]l_z=l_z(a+bx)[/tex]

[tex]=l(a)+l(bx)[/tex]

[tex]=a+b\:l\:x[/tex]

substitute the value of a=1, b=4 and l=35

[tex]l_z=1+4\times35[/tex]

[tex]=1+140[/tex]

[tex]=141[/tex]

So, the expected value of the transformed variable is 141.

Answer 2
Answer:  D) 141

=======================================================

Explanation:

Let's consider a set of three values such that they're all equal to 35

{35,35,35}

This rather boring set has a mean of 35 and it's hopefully very clear why this is the case. The terms "mean" and "expected value" are interchangeable.

If we multiply everything by 4, then we get the new set {140,140,140}

Then add 1 to everything and we arrive at {141,141,141}. You can quickly see that the mean here is 141.

-----------------------------

You could play around with that original set of 3 values to make things more interesting. Let's say we subtract 1 from the first item and add 1 to the last item. So we could have {35,35,35} turn into {34,35,36}. You should find that the mean is still 35 here.

If we quadruple each item, then we have {34,35,36} turn into {136,140,144}

Finally, add 1 to everything to get {137,141,145}. Computing the mean of this set leads to 141.

These are just two examples you could do to help see why the answer is D) 141

-----------------------------

In a more general theoretical sense, we're saying the following

Y = mX+b

E[Y] = E[m*X+b]

E[Y] = E[m*X] + E[b]

E[Y] = m*E[X] + b

where Y is the transformed variable based on the random variable X. In this case, m = 4 and b = 1. Also, E[X] = 35.

So,

E[Y] = m*E[X] + b

E[Y] = 4*35 + 1

E[Y] = 141

-----------------------------

Why go through all this trouble? Well consider that you know a certain distribution is centered around 35. Then consider that you want to convert those measurements to some other unit. This conversion process is us going from variable X to variable Y. Think of it like a batch conversion of sorts.

A more real world example would be something like "we know the average temperature is 35 degrees Celsius. The question is: what is the average temperature in Fahrenheit?" The numbers would be different, but the idea still holds up.

Which equation represents a line that passes through ( -2 , 4 ) and has the slope of 2/5

Answers

Answer:

y = 2/5x +24/5

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope intercept form of a line is

y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

y = 2/5 x +b

Substitute the point into the equation and solve for b

4 = 2/5(-2)+b

4 = -4/5 +b

Add 4/5 to each side

20/5 +4/5 = b

24/5 = b

y = 2/5x +24/5

Answers

Factorize the numerator:

4r + 20 = 4r + 4×5 = 4 (r + 5)

I think you meant to say r ≠ -5, which means r + 5 ≠ 0, so that the denominator is never zero and so the expression is defined (no division by zero). This lets you cancel the factor of r + 5 in the numerator with the one in the denominator:

(4r + 20)/(r + 5) = 4 (r + 5)/(r + 5) = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The number line is created by skip counting of 2.

So, -2 ,  then -4 and then -6.

Graph the following equations by plotting 3 points and then connecting the points to form a line. Show your work to find the 3 points and then list the ordered pairs you used as part of your answer.

Answers

Answer:

The way I would tackle these types of problems would be to make a table, then graph the points using the results I get.

Step-by-step explanation:

So explaining the table is kinda hard since I suck at explaining, so I've attached a file showing the table I've made for number 1.

First Step:

Make the table. Make it a 3x4 table. For the top row, put y, the equation (I put 'y=2x' as shown in number 1), then x. Then for the left column, go down by one box, then put: -1, 0, 1. Really, you can put any numbers, but to make it easy for yourself, just write the numbers I've listed. These will be your y-values you'll be substituting.

Second Step:

a.) Plugging in the numbers. For the middle column, I've put down y=2x in each box, as shown in my table. Then for each of those boxes, plug in the numbers to the left of them and substitute them for the y-value. For example, look at the second row. The left box has '-1', so I replaced the 'y' in the equation and got '(-1)=2x'.

b.) After substituting the y-values, solve for x. For this case, you'll need to divide both sides by 2. If it doesn't make much sense, think about a seesaw. If you have 5 pounds on both sides, the seesaw will stay balanced. Add an additional 5 pounds to one side, then the seesaw will start tipping towards the heavier sides. So in order to keep an equation balanced, you must do any action to both sides of the equation. After diving both sides by 2, you'll get the value for x.

Final Step:

After finding the x-values for each of the y-values, it's time to graph the equations. Remember, x is left to right and y is down to up. To graph them, let's use the second row for example. y=-1 and x=-0.5. So all you need to do is to start from the origin (0,0), then go half a unit to the left, as x is negative, then go a unit down, as y is negative, then make a point. The rest should be pretty straight forward.

After making all three points, just get a ruler or any straight edge, then align it along those three points, then just make a line, and boom! You've solved number 1! For the purpose of saving my time, I'm pretty sure you can solve the rest using what I've just told you. Good luck!

Determine the value of K that will cause f(x)=Kx^2+4x-3 to intersect the line g(x)=2x-7 at one point. SHOW ALL YOUR STEPS, DON'T USE DECIMALS INSTEAD USE FRACTIONS PLEASE!!!!!

Answers

Given:

The function are:

[tex]f(x)=Kx^2+4x-3[/tex]

[tex]g(x)=2x-7[/tex]

The graph of f(x) intersect the line g(x) at one point.

To find:

The value of K.

Solution:

The graph of f(x) intersect the line g(x) at one point. It means the line g(x) is the tangent line.

We have,

[tex]f(x)=Kx^2+4x-3[/tex]

Differentiate this function with respect to x.

[tex]f'(x)=K(2x)+4(1)-(0)[/tex]

[tex]f'(x)=2Kx+4[/tex]

Let the point of tangency is [tex](x_0,y_0)[/tex]. So, the slope of the tangent line is:

[tex][f'(x)]_{(x_0,y_0)}=2Kx_0+4[/tex]

On comparing [tex]g(x)=2x-7[/tex] with slope-intercept form, we get

[tex]m=2[/tex]

So, the slope of the tangent line is 2.

[tex]2Kx_0+4=2[/tex]

[tex]2Kx_0=2-4[/tex]

[tex]x_0=\dfrac{-2}{2K}[/tex]

[tex]x_0=-\dfrac{1}{K}[/tex]

Putting [tex]x=x_0,g(x)=y_0[/tex] in g(x), we get

[tex]y_0=2x_0-7[/tex]

Putting [tex]x=-\dfrac{1}{K}[/tex] in the above equation, we get

[tex]y_0=2(-\dfrac{1}{K})-7[/tex]

[tex]y_0=-\dfrac{2}{K}-7[/tex]

Putting [tex]x=-\dfrac{1}{K}[/tex] and [tex]f(x)=-\dfrac{2}{K}-7[/tex] in f(x).

[tex]-\dfrac{2}{K}-7=K\left(-\dfrac{1}{K}\right)^2+4(-\dfrac{1}{K})-3[/tex]

[tex]-\dfrac{2}{K}-7=\dfrac{1}{K}-\dfrac{4}{K}-3[/tex]

[tex]-\dfrac{2}{K}-7=\dfrac{-3}{K}-3[/tex]

Multiply both sides by K.

[tex]-2-7K=-3-3K[/tex]

[tex]-2+3=7K-3k[/tex]

[tex]1=4k[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{1}{4}=K[/tex]

Therefore, the value of K is [tex]\dfrac{1}{4}[/tex].

Pieter wrote and solved an equation that models the number of hours it takes to dig a well to a level of 72 feet below sea level

Answers

Answer:

It must be a positive number since it represents a number of hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given Pieter's equation :

7h – 5(3h – 8) = –72

Opening up the bracket

7h - 15h + 40 = - 72

7h - 15h = - 72 - 40

-8h = - 112

Divide both sides by -8

-8h / -8 = - 112 / - 8

h = 14

Since, h represents the number of hours, and the value of h equals 14 (h cannot be negative), hence, option 2 is correct.

Answer:

B.It must be a positive number since it represents a numbers of hours.

The minimum amount Jeanette will have to run to reach her goal of $3, 200 is
kilometers.

Answers

Total amount she wants to raise = $3200

Amount she'll get for each kilometer = $35

So, number of kilometers she need to run

= Total amount she wants to raise/Amount she'll get for each kilometer

= $3200/$35

= 91.42....

Since her sponser is will donate only for whole kilometers she'll have to run 92 km.

What is subtraction?

To subtract in mathematics is to take something away from a group or a number of objects.

In another meaning subtraction is a mathematical operation such that two values are going to subtract and give a resultant value.

The group's total number of items decreases or becomes lower when we subtract from it.

Given that sell of CDs in 1993 is 2.3 × 10⁶.

Sell of CDs in 2001 is 7.9 × 10⁷.

The difference between sell is = 7.9 × 10⁷ - 2.3 × 10⁶

76.7 × 10⁵ hence it will the correct option.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is most easily solved with calculus, believe it or not. It is way more direct and to the point, with a whole lot less math!

The position function is given. The velocity function is the first derivative of the position, so if we find the velocity function and set it equal to 0, we can solve for the amount of time it takes for the rocket to reach its max height. Remember from physics that at the top of a parabolic path, the velocity is 0.

If:

[tex]s(t)=-16t^2+112t+360[/tex], then the velocity function, the first derivative is:

v(t) = -32t + 112 and solve for t:

-112 = -32t so

t = 3.5 seconds. Now we know how long it takes to get to the max height, we just need to find out what the max height is.

Go back to the position function and sub in 3.5 for t to tell us that position of the rocket at 3.5 seconds, which translates to the max height:

[tex]s(3.5)=-16(3.5)^2+112(3.5)+360[/tex] and

s(3.5) = 206 feet. I imagine that your answer, if you had to choose one from the list, would be 200 feet, rounded a lot.

3. Given the graph below, determine whether each statement is true or false.

Answers

TrueTrueTrueFalseFalse

======================================

Explanation:

In this context, a zero is another term for x intercept or root. This is where the graph either touches or crosses the x axis. This occurs in three locations: x = -3, x = 2, and x = 0. So those are the three roots. That makes the first three statements true, while the remaining two others are false.

Side note: x = 0 doesn't always have to be involved. Its quite possible to have x = 0 not be an x intercept. The term "zero" is a bit misleading in that regard. I prefer either "root" or "x intercept" instead.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the rectangles are similar and we have their proportion of coefficient, the larger rectangle is twice the smaller rectangle.

Furthermore, the ratio of two longer sides should equal the ratio of the two shorter sides.

Therefore, for our case, we multiply the smaller rectangle by 2.

Hence;

(80 × 2)m
