A student is initially outside. He is given the choice with a probability of 0.4 of going to the playground, 0.3 of shopping in the mall and 0.3 of returning home. If he is in the playground, he takes 2 hrs of time and then decides to stay in the playground again or return back home. (he can continue to decide to stay in playground like a recursive process) Similarly, If he is in the mall, he takes 3 hrs of time and then decides to stay in the mall again or return back home. (he can continue to decide to stay in mall like a recursive process) For all cases, it takes 1 hr to return home. what is the expected hours the student was outside home?

Answers

Answer 1

Based on the probability values, it will take the student 2 hours to stay outside the home

How to determine the expected value of the student?

The given parameters are:

Probabilities

P(1) = 0.4

P(2) = 0.3

P(3) = 0.3

Time

Time 1 = 2 hours

Time 2 = 3 hours

Time 3 = 1 hour

When the above are represented on a table, we have the following table of values

Time (x)                    |   2        3          1

Probability (P(x))       | 0.4      0.3     0.3

The expected value of the student is then calculated as

E(x) = ∑ x * P(x)

Substitute the known values in the above equation

E(x) = 2 * 0.4 + 3 * 0.3 + 1 * 0.3

Evaluate the products

E(x) = 0.8 + 0.9 + 0.3

Evaluate the sum

E(x) = 2

Hence, the expected value is 2

Answer:

The answer should be x=2.6

Step-by-step explanation:

-first you should move the numbers so you can get all your x values on one side and all your regular numbers on the other like this

9x-3x=7+9

-What i basically did was i passed the 3x from the right side to the left side of the equation, since in adding the 3x originaly, when i pass it to the left side itll be subtracting. then i passed my -9 to the right side of my equation, since i was subtracting originaly ill have to now switch it to adding

-after you do this you are going to want to want to combine like terms

6x=16

-then you are going to want to devide on both sides so you can get x alone

x=2.6

Answers

The first equation is increasing at highest rate.

Which function has highest increasing rate?

We can know which function has the highest rate of increase by looking at its slope. The function with the highest slope will have the highest rate.

In equation first m = 2 and is highest among every slope.

12x - 6y = -24

-6y = -12x -24

y = 2x +4

m = 2 (increasing)

In second equation m = 1

m = (-4 + 5)/(2-1) = 1

for a straight line function , the slope is given by

m = ( y₂ -y₁)/(x₂-x₁)

m = ( -3 -3)/(2- (-1)) = -6 /3 = -2

What is defined as the system of equations?When two or more equations are solved together in algebra, the solution should satisfy all of the equations with in system. The amount of equations must equal the amount of unknowns for a system to produce a unique solution. Even so, no solution is guaranteed. If there is a solution, the system has been consistent; otherwise, it is inconsistent.

For the given system of equation,

4x + 6y =24  ......eq 1

and 2x + 3y = 8 ..... eq2

use elimination method.

Multiply eq 2 with 2 and subtract from eq 1.

0 = 16

But 0 ≠ 16, the system of equation becomes untrue.

As, the values o f the variables x and y are getting cancelled. So, the there is no solution existed for the given system.

Also,the ratio of 4x/2x = 2 and 6y/3y = 2 is same thus, no solution is possible for the system.

Now, when the we triple each side of the first equation 4x+6y=24, we have 12x+18y=72.

The new system 12x+18y=72 and 2x+3y=8

Then, also 12x/2x = 6 and 18y/3y = 6 is also same. Then, also the system of equation does not have any solution of the system.

Use the given matrix equation to solve for the number of children’s tickets sold. Explain the steps that you took to solve this problem.

Answers

The number of children's tickets sold is 13750.

Let the number of children be x and the number of adults be y.

The total number of attendance at the amusement park is 25,000.

So we have an equation

x + y = 25000 ......(i)

The cost for children is $15 and the cost for adults is $35, and the total money earned by the park is $600,000.

So we have another equation,

15x + 35y = 600,000

3x + 7y = 120,000 ......(ii)

Multiplying equation (i) with 3 we get

3x + 3y = 75000

3x + 7y = 120,000

Now subtract both the equation we have,

4y = 45000

y = 11250

Now put the value of y in equation (i) we get

x + 11250 = 25000

x = 13750

Where x is the number of children's tickets sold.

Therefore the number of children's tickets sold is 13750.

Part A: Given the function
g(x) = |x - 5| describe the graph of the function, including the vertex, domain, and range.


Part B: If the parent function
f(x) = |x| is transformed to
h(x) = Ix| + 3, what transformation occurs from f(x) to h(x)? How are the vertex and range of h(x) affected?

Answers

Part A: The vertex, domain, and range of the function g(x) = |x-5|  is

( 5, 0 ), ( - ∞ , ∞ ) and [0, ∞ ).

Part B: The function f(x) = |x| is vertically shifted by 3 units to get the function h(x) = |x| + 3. The y - coordinate of the vertex is shifted by 3 units.

In Part A:

The given function is;

g(x) = | x - 5 |.

Now, The x - coordinate of the vertex will be:

x - 5 = 0

x = 5

Therefore, the y- coordinate of the vertex will be:

y = g(x) = | x - 5 |

y = g(7) = | 5 - 5|

y = 0

So, The vertex of the absolute function is ( 5, 0 ).

Since, All real numbers fall under the expression's domain, with the exception of cases where it is undefined. In this case, the phrase is defined even if there is no real number.

Hence, In Interval Notation the domain is;

⇒ ( - ∞ , ∞ )

And, The set of all legitimate y values is the range.

Hence, In Interval Notation the range is:

⇒ [0, ∞ )

Now, In Part B:

Function h(x) = |x| + 3 is the transformed version of the parent function

f(x) = |x|.

For the parent function f(x) = |x|, the vertex is ( 0, 0).

Since, The range of an absolute function in the form c( | ax + b | ) + k is

f(x) ≥ k.

Therefore, The range of the function f(x) = |x| is f(x) ≥ 0 and in interval notation is [ 0, ∞ ).

For the transformed function h(x) = |x| + 3.

The vertex of the function is ( 0, 3 ).

The range of function is h(x) ≥ 3 and in interval notation is [3, ∞ ).

Hence, the y coordinate of the vertex is transformed by 3 from f (x) to h(x).

So, Part A: The vertex, domain, and range of the function g(x) = |x-7|  is  

( 5, 0 ), ( - ∞ , ∞ ) and [0, ∞ ).

Part B: The function f(x) = |x| is vertically shifted by 2 units to get the function h(x) = |x| + 3. The y coordinate of the vertex is shifted by 3 units.

Information text: AutobiographyRead the passage, and answer the question(s).(1) Even before I started performing in musical comedies, I learned how music and laughter could mix. When I was a boy, for example, I sang for years in the school chorus. We were young, but performances were a serious business for us. We tried to conduct ourselves with great, solemn purpose.(2) Bette Ann was our star soprano. The rest of us were serious, but Bette Ann was as stern and dignified as the statue on top of a building. That's what made it so hard for us when the spider came to our show.(3) It was the final performance before school let out for the year. Bette Ann was in the middle of her big solo. She climbed from one high note to the next, and as usual, the audience was rapt, listening in an appreciative trance. We chorus members sat onstage behind her, quiet and still.(4) That spider must have been a music lover, too. Jeremy was the first to notice him as he descended on his silken thread, one inch at a time, from the auditorium ceiling. Jeremy nudged me, and made a small pointing gesture. From where we sat, the spider was well lit, silhouetted by a spotlight. His progress was easy to track, and we watched his descent in silent awe.(5) It soon became clear what the spider's target was.

Amid the music, I could almost hear a Mission Controlstyle countdown: "T minus 10 seconds to impact, T minus 9, T minus 8. . . ."(6) As our performance headed straight for disaster, I remember wondering whether the shriek Bette Anne was about to give would be even higher than her high C.(7) The episode is certainly funny enough to be memorable for itself. I also take the memory out from time to time, though, as an antidote for jitters before a performance. After all, I think to myself, the thing that's likeliest to trip me up is the thing I least expecta little spider hanging from the ceiling, perhaps. So why worry?
