An insurance company offers its policyholders a number of different premium payment options. For a randomly selected policyholde

n200080 [17]

Answer:

(a)

$\begin{array}{cccccc}x & {1} & {3} & {4} & {6} & {12} \ \\ P(x) & {0.30} & {0.10} & {0.05} & {0.15} & {0.40} \ \end{array}$

(b)

$P(3 \le x \le 6) = 0.30$

$P(4 \le x)=0.60$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$F(x) = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}0& x$

Solving (a): The pmf

This means that we list out the probability of each value of x.

To do this, we simply subtract the current probability value from the next.

So, we have:

$\begin{array}{cccccc}x & {1} & {3} & {4} & {6} & {12} \ \\ P(x) & {0.30} & {0.10} & {0.05} & {0.15} & {0.40} \ \end{array}$

The calculation is as follows:

$0.30 - 0 = 0.30$

$0.40 - 0.30 = 0.10$

$0.45 - 0.40 = 0.05$

$0.60 - 0.45 = 0.15$

$1 - 0.60 = 0.40$

The x values are gotten by considering where the equality sign is in each range.

$1 \le x < 3$ means $x = 1$

$3 \le x < 4$ means $x = 3$

$4 \le x < 6$ means $x=4$

$6 \le x < 12$ means $x = 6$

$12 \le x$ means $x = 12$

Solving (b):

$(i)\ P(3 \le x \le 6)$

This is calculated as:

$P(3 \le x \le 6) = F(6) - F(3-)$

From the given function

$F(6)= 0.60$

$F(3-) = F(1) = 0.30$

So:

$P(3 \le x \le 6) = 0.60 - 0.30$

$P(3 \le x \le 6) = 0.30$

$(ii)\ P(4 \le x)$

This is calculated as:

$P(4 \le x)=1 - F(4-)$

$P(4 \le x)=1 - F(3)$

$P(4 \le x)=1 - 0.40$

$P(4 \le x)=0.60$

2-[6÷2+{6×1/2+(7/2-3/2)}]

professor190 [17]

Answer:

-6

Step-by-step explanation:

2 - [6 ÷ 2 + {6 × 1/2 + (7/2 - 3/2)}] =

Follow the correct order of operations.

Do one step at a time and copy everything else each time, so you don't lose track of any operation.

= 2 - [6 ÷ 2 + {6 × 1/2 + 4/2}]

= 2 - [6 ÷ 2 + {6 × 1/2 + 2}]

= 2 - [6 ÷ 2 + {3 + 2}]

= 2 - [6 ÷ 2 + 5]

= 2 - [3 + 5]

= 2 - 8

= -6

a 136 foot tall cell phone tower casts a 79.9 foot shadow. find the shadow length for a nearby 40 foot telephone pole

AleksAgata [21]

Given :

A 136 foot tall cell phone tower casts a 79.9 foot shadow.

To Find :

The shadow length for a nearby 40 foot telephone pole .

Solution :

We know , the ratio of height and shadow , will be same for every object .

Let , length of shadow of pole is x .

So ,

$\dfrac{79.9}{136}=\dfrac{x}{40}\\\\x=\dfrac{79.9\times 40}{136}\ foot\\\\x=23.5\ foot$

Therefore , the length of shadow of tower is 23.5 foot .

Hence , this is the required solution .

What is the area of a triangle with vertices (3,0) (9,0) (7,6)

Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

The area of the triangle is of 21 units of area.

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a triangle with three vertices $(x_1,y_1),(x_2,y_2),(x_3,y_3)$ is given by the determinant of the following matrix:

$A = \pm 0.5 \left|\begin{array}{ccc}x_1&y_1&1\\x_2&y_2&1\\1_3&y_3&1\end{array}\right|$

In this question:

Vertices (3,0) (9,0) (7,6). So

$A = \pm 0.5 \left|\begin{array}{ccc}3&0&1\\9&0&1\\7&7&1\end{array}\right|$

$A = \pm 0.5(3*0*1+0*1*7+1*9*7-0*7*1-0*9*1-3*1*7)$

$A = \pm 0.5*(63-21)$

$A = \pm 0.5*42 = 21$

The area of the triangle is of 21 units of area.
