taking . definitions: a nullcline of this system is a line on which either or . more precisely, a vertical nullcline of this system is a line on which , and likewise, a horizontal nullcline of this system is a line on which . (a) write an equation for a vertical nullcline that is not a coordinate axis:

Answers

The a) equation for the vertical nullcline is y = -4x + 4 and horizontal nullcline is x = -3y + 1. The b) equilibrium points are (0,0) , (0 , 0.8) , (0.75 , 0), and (0.375,0.5)

We have

dx/dt = x(1 - x/3 - y)

dy/dt = y(1 - y/4 - x)

a) To get the equation for vertical nullcline, not on the coordinate axis we take

dy/dt = 0

or, y(1 - y/4 - x) = 0

or, 1 - y/4 - x = 0

or, y/4 = 1 - x

or, y = -4x + 4

Similar;y for horizontal nullcline not on coordinate axis we take

dx/dt = 0

or, (1 - x/3 - y) = 0

or, x/3 = 1 - y

or, x = -3y + 1

b)

To get the equilibrium points of the nullcline system we simply take

Here the x nullcline will intersect y nullcline at

x = 0 and x = 1 - x/3 - y

y = 0 and y = 1 - y/4 - x

therefore we have equilibrium points

for x = 0 and y = 0  at(0,0)

x = 0 and y = 1 - y/4 - x at (0, 4/5)

x =  1 - x/3 - y and y = 0 at (3/4 , 0)

x = 1 - x/3 - y and y = 1 - y/4 - x  at (3/8 , 1/2)

Hence the equilibrium points are (0,0) , (0 , 0.8) , (0.75 , 0), and (0.375,0.5)

If Allam ordered a $15 meal, how much money will he have to pay with tax and tip?

Answers

Answer:

x =  15 · 15 / 100

x = 225 / 100

x = $ 2.25 (tips)


5 : 100 = x : 15

two people are selected at random from a group of 16 republicans and 19 democrats. find the probability of each of the following. (round your answers to three decimal places.)

Answers

The probability of both people being Democrats is 0.243, and the probability of one person being a Republican and one person being a Democrat is 0.486.

To find the probability of each of the following, we can use the formula for the probability of selecting a group of items from a larger group with replacement:

P(A and B) = P(A) * P(B)

Where P(A) is the probability of selecting the first item, and P(B) is the probability of selecting the second item.

Both people are Democrats:

There are 16 Democrats and 31 total people, so the probability of selecting a Democrat is 16/31. Therefore, the probability of selecting two Democrats is (16/31) * (16/31) = 0.243.

One person is a Republican and one person is a Democrat:

There are 15 Republicans and 31 total people, so the probability of selecting a Republican is 15/31. There are 16 Democrats and 31 total people, so the probability of selecting a Democrat is 16/31. Therefore, the probability of selecting one Republican and one Democrat is (15/31) * (16/31) = 0.486.

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, I presume that the question talks about a rectangle and there is consistency in units i.e.Area is in units^2 and perimeter is in units (else there is no possible solution).

Now, perimeter = 2(L+B) = 40

OR (L+B) = 20.

Also, area = LxB = 100.

Now, LxB = 100 will give you the following values for LxB (Note in a rectangle, L>B or L=B):- (100×1),(50×20),(25x4),(20×5),(10×10).

Only one value gives L+B = 20 viz.L=10 & B=10.

The total expected waiting time including the morning and the evening time is 41/3

given that your waiting time for a bus in the morning is uniformly distributed on [0, 8], whereas waiting time in the evening is uniformly distributed on [0, 10] independent of morning waiting time.

Sum of both waiting times = X+Y

Where X = morning wait time is U(0.8) and

Y = evening wait time is U(0,10)

Since X and Y are independent

Var(x+y) = Var(x)+Var(y)

Var(x) = (8^2 - 0^2)/12 = 16/3

Var(Y) = (10^2 - 0^2)/12 = 25/3

Var(x+y) = 16/3 + 25/3

= (16 + 25)/3

= 41/3

Therefore, the total expected value of waiting time including the morning and the evening time is 41/3.

Step-by-step explanation: Raúl should put a turn of -30° in the walkway after the tree in order to continue in the same direction as before. This is because the negative angle will cancel out the positive angle and the walkway will continue in the same direction as before.

Alice and Bob are playing a game where in each round, each of them rolls a fair die independently. If both roll the same number, then the game is repeated. Otherwise the player with the larger number wins. Let X be the number of rounds until the game is decided.
(a) Determine the probability mass function of X.
(b) Compute E[X].
(c) Compute Probability[ Alice win].
(d) Assume that you get paid 10USD for winning in the first round, 1USD for winning in any other round, and nothing otherwise. Compute your expected winnings.

Answers

(a) The probability mass function of X will be P(X=n) = 5/(6n)

(b) E[X] =1.2

(c) Probability [ Alice win] will be =0.5

(d) The value of expected winnings will be 4.25

(a) Let 'p' represent the probability of getting the same number on both the dices on a roll of pair of die

And (1-p) = probability of not getting the same number on both the dices on a roll of pair of die

Sample space for the same number appearing on both the dices on a roll of pair of die = {(1,1), (2,2), (3,3), (4,4), (5,5), (6,6)}

As there are a total of 36 outcomes on a roll of pair of dice,

p = 6/36 = 1/6

Let the events be defined as:

Dn : Both Alice and Bob roll the same number on the nth roll

Wn : The game is finished in the nth roll (i.e. Alice and Bob roll different numbers (as the numbers are different, one will be larger))

Then,P(W) = P(W) , n = 1,2,3,4....infinity

Wn takes place when event D takes place in the first (n-1) rolls and Event W takes place in the nth roll

[tex]$\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{W})=\sum P\left(W_n\right), \mathrm{n}=1,2,3,4 \ldots .$[/tex]. infinity

And, W_n takes place when

Event D takes place in the first (n-1) rolls and event W takes place in the [tex]$n^{\text {th }}$[/tex] roll

[tex]P\left(W_n\right)=P\left(D_1\right)^* P\left(D_2\right)^* P\left(D_3\right) \ldots . .{ }^* P\left(D_{n-1}\right) P\left(W_n\right)P\left(D_n\right)\\=(p)P\left(W_n\right)\\=(1-p)[/tex]

Implies

[tex]$$\begin{aligned}& \left.P\left(W_n\right)=(p)^{n-1}\right)^*(1-p) \\& =\left((1 / 6)^{n-1}\right)^*(1-(1 / 6)) \\& =\left((1 / 6)^{n-1}\right)^*(5 / 6) \\& =5 /\left(6^n\right)\end{aligned}$$[/tex]

(b)

[tex]$$\begin{aligned}& \mathrm{E}[\mathrm{X}]=\sum n * P(X=n), \mathrm{n}=1,2,3,4 \ldots . . \text { infinity } \\& =\sum n * \frac{5}{6^n} \\& =5 * \sum n * \frac{1}{6^n}\end{aligned}$$[/tex]

If [tex]$\mathrm{S}=\sum n * \frac{1}{6^n}$[/tex]

Then S is a sum of infinite aritho-geometric series of the form

[tex]$$\sum_{k=1}^{\mathrm{inf}} k * r^k \text {, }$$[/tex]

The sum of which is given as [tex]$S=\frac{r}{(1-r)^2}$[/tex] for 0 < r < 1

Here, r=(1 / 6)

[tex]\Rightarrow & S=\frac{\frac{1}{6}}{\left(\frac{5}{6}\right)^2} \\& =\frac{6}{25}[/tex]

E[X] = (5) x (6/25) = (6/5)= 1.2

(c) Since the dies are fair, and the outcomes are independent, the probability of each player winning is equal

Therefore,

P(Alice WIn) = P(Bob WIn) = 0.5

(d) If X represent the round in which the game ends, then the probability of us winning in that round

P(W|X=n) = 0.5*P(X=n)

= (0.5)*(5/(6n))

P(W|X=1) = (0.5)*(5/(61)) = (5/12)

P(W|X=2,3,4...) = 0.5 - P(W|X=1) = (1/2) - (5/12) = (1/12)

Leth the variable W represent the winnings

(W|X=1) = 10

(W|X=2,3,4...) = 1

E[W] = P(W|X=1)*(W|X=1) + P(W|X=2,3,4...)*(W|X=2,3,4...)

= (10 x (5/12)) + (1 x (1/12))

= (50/12) + (1/12)= (51/12)= 4.25
