A random variables X and Y are distributed according to the joint PDF. The value of constant a = _______.f(x,y)=ax if 1<=1x<=y<=2 and 0 otherwise

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:    3/2

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

Explanation:

PDF = probability density function

The given joint PDF is

[tex]f(x,y) = \begin{cases}ax \ \ \ \text{ if } 1 \le x \le y \le 2\\0 \ \ \ \ \ \text{ otherwise}\end{cases}[/tex]

Let's focus on the [tex]1 \le x \le y \le 2[/tex]. Specifically the x term for now. Erasing out the y term, we have the inequality [tex]1 \le x \le 2[/tex] which says x is between 1 and 2, inclusive. We have almost the same story for y, but there's another condition attached to it: y must also be equal to or larger than x.

So let's say x = 1.5. This would mean [tex]1.5 \le y \le 2[/tex]. As another example, x = 1.7  leads to [tex]1.7 \le y \le 2[/tex]. In general, we would say [tex]x \le y \le 2[/tex] where x is between 1 and 2.

As x gets bigger, the range of possible y values gets smaller. If x = 2, then y has no choice but to be 2 as well.

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

Based on that, we'll have a double integral that looks like this:

[tex]\displaystyle V = \int_{1}^{2}\int_{x}^{2}f(x,y)dydx\\\\[/tex]

The outer integral handles the x terms that range from 1 to 2, describing [tex]1 \le x \le 2[/tex]. Note the dx on the outside. The order of the dy and dx matters.

On the inside, we have the integral for dy ranging from x to 2 to describe the interval [tex]x \le y \le 2[/tex]

To have f(x,y) be a PDF, the volume under the f(x,y) surface must be 1, where the volume is based on the bounds set up. So we must have V = 1. We'll use this later.

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

Let's simplify the double integral.

We'll start by computing the inner integral with respect to y.

[tex]\displaystyle V = \int_{1}^{2}\int_{x}^{2}f(x,y)dydx\\\\\displaystyle V = \int_{1}^{2}\int_{x}^{2}\left(ax\right)dydx\\\\\displaystyle V = \int_{1}^{2}\left(axy\Bigg|_{x}^{2}\right)dx\\\\\displaystyle V = \int_{1}^{2}\left(ax(2) - ax(x)\right)dx\\\\\displaystyle V = \int_{1}^{2}\left(2ax - ax^2\right)dx\\\\[/tex]

Then we'll finish it off by integrating with respect to x.

[tex]\displaystyle V = \int_{1}^{2}\left(2ax - ax^2\right)dx\\\\\displaystyle V = \left(ax^2 - \frac{1}{3}ax^3\right)\Bigg|_{1}^{2}\\\\\displaystyle V = \left(a(2)^2 - \frac{1}{3}a(2)^3\right) - \left(a(1)^2 - \frac{1}{3}a(1)^3\right)\\\\\displaystyle V = \left(4a - \frac{8}{3}a\right)-\left(a - \frac{1}{3}a\right)\\\\[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle V = 4a - \frac{8}{3}a-a + \frac{1}{3}a\\\\\displaystyle V = 3a - \frac{8}{3}a + \frac{1}{3}a\\\\\displaystyle V = \frac{9}{3}a - \frac{8}{3}a + \frac{1}{3}a\\\\\displaystyle V = \frac{9-8+1}{3}a\\\\\displaystyle V = \frac{2}{3}a\\\\[/tex]

Side note: We don't have to worry about the "plus C" integration constant when working with definite integrals.

Recall that V = 1. So,

[tex]\displaystyle V = \frac{2}{3}a\\\\\displaystyle \frac{2}{3}a = 1\\\\\displaystyle a = \frac{3}{2} = 1.5\\\\[/tex]

a = 3/2 is the final answer.

A dairy needs 364 gallons of milk containing 6% butterfat. How many gallons each of milk containing 7% butterfat and milk containing 3% butterfat must be used to obtain the desired 364 gallons?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be gallons of 7%

Let y be gallons of 3%

364 = x + y

y = 364 - x

364(0.06) = x(0.07) + y(0.03)

364(6) = x(7) + y(3)

364(6) = 7x + 3y

364(6) = 7x + 3(364 - x)

364(6 - 3) = 7x - 3x

364(3) = 4x

x = 273

y = 364 - 273 = 91

273 gallons of 7%

91    gallons of 3%

What is the vertical shift for the absolute value function below. Explain how you know using complete sentences. Include the direction and number of units of the shift. f(x)=9|x+1|+2

Answers

The vertical shift of the function [tex]f(x) = 9|x + 1| + 2[/tex] is 2 units up

The absolute function is given as:

[tex]f(x) = 9|x + 1| + 2[/tex]

An absolute function is represented as:

[tex]f(x) = a|x - h| + k[/tex]

Where k represents the vertical shift.

By comparison, the value of k is:

[tex]k = 2[/tex]

This means that the vertical shift is 2 units

Hence, the vertical shift of the function [tex]f(x) = 9|x + 1| + 2[/tex] is 2 units up

Find an equation for the perpendicular bisector of the line segment whose endpoints
are (5, 4) and (-7,-8).

Answers

Answer:

y= -x -3

Step-by-step explanation:

A perpendicular bisector of a line cuts through the line at its midpoint perpendicularly (90°).

Let's find the slope of the line segment.

[tex]\boxed{ slope = \frac{y _{1} - y_2 }{x_1 - x_2} }[/tex]

Slope of line segment

[tex] = \frac{4 - ( - 8)}{5 - ( - 7)} [/tex]

[tex] = \frac{4 + 8}{5 + 7} [/tex]

[tex] = \frac{12}{12} [/tex]

= 1

The product of the slopes of 2 perpendicular lines is -1.

Let the slope of the perpendicular bisector be m.

m(1)= -1

m= -1

y= -x +c

To find the value of c, substitute a pair of coordinates in which the line passes through into the above equation.

Since the perpendicular bisector cuts through the midpoint of the line segment, let's find the coordinates of this midpoint.

[tex]\boxed{midpoint = ( \frac{x _{1} + x _2}{2} , \frac{y_1 + y_2}{2} )}[/tex]

Midpoint of line segment

[tex] = ( \frac{5 - 7}{2} , \frac{4 - 8}{2} )[/tex]

[tex] = ( \frac{ - 2}{2} , \frac{ - 4}{2} )[/tex]

= (-1, -2)

y= -x +c

When x= -1, y= -2,

-2= -(-1) +c

-2= 1 +c

c= -2 -1

c= -3

Thus, the equation of the perpendicular bisector is y= -x -3.

y= -x -3

Step-by-step explanation:

A perpendicular bisector of a line cuts through the line at its midpoint perpendicularly (90°).

Let's find the slope of the line segment.

\boxed{ slope = \frac{y _{1} - y_2 }{x_1 - x_2} }slope=x1−x2y1−y2

Slope of line segment

= \frac{4 - ( - 8)}{5 - ( - 7)}=5−(−7)4−(−8)

= \frac{4 + 8}{5 + 7}=5+74+8

= \frac{12}{12}=1212

= 1

The product of the slopes of 2 perpendicular lines is -1.

Let the slope of the perpendicular bisector be m.

m(1)= -1

m= -1

y= -x +c

To find the value of c, substitute a pair of coordinates in which the line passes through into the above equation.

Since the perpendicular bisector cuts through the midpoint of the line segment, let's find the coordinates of this midpoint.

\boxed{midpoint = ( \frac{x _{1} + x _2}{2} , \frac{y_1 + y_2}{2} )}midpoint=(2x1+x2,2y1+y2)

Midpoint of line segment

= ( \frac{5 - 7}{2} , \frac{4 - 8}{2} )=(25−7,24−8)

= ( \frac{ - 2}{2} , \frac{ - 4}{2} )=(2−2,2−4)

= (-1, -2)

y= -x +c

When x= -1, y= -2,

-2= -(-1) +c

-2= 1 +c

c= -2 -1

c= -3

Thus, the equation of the perpendicular bisector is y= -x -3.

Answer:

[tex]\boxed{\boxed{\sf a=\cfrac{G}{4-d^2} }}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\sf G=a(4-d^2)[/tex]

Use the Distributive Property to multiply a by (4-d^2):

[tex]\sf G=4a-ad^2[/tex]

Now, we'll swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.

[tex]\sf 4a-ad^2=G[/tex]

Combine like terms:

[tex]\sf (4-d^2)\:a =G[/tex]

Divide both sides by 4-d^2:

[tex]\sf \cfrac{(4-d^2)a}{4-d^2} =\cfrac{G}{4-d^2}[/tex]

Dividing by 4-d^2 undoes the multiplication by 4-d^2.

[tex]\sf a=\cfrac{G}{4-d^2}[/tex]

Option 1: Ricorsively, the first term is -5, then the next term is -2 times the previous one:

[tex]\left \{ {{a_0=-5} \atop {a_{n+1}=-2a_n}} \right.[/tex]

Option 2: In closed form, remembering that the n-th term in a geometric sequence is the starting term times the n-th power of the ratio:

Answers

A is believe I’m not 100% sure

The mean age will increase, and the median age will remain the same.

Option B is the correct answer.

What is a mean?

It is the average value of the set given.

It is calculated as:

Mean = Sum of all the values of the set given / Number of values in the set

We have,

Ages:

14, 15, 15, 16, 16, 16, 16, 17, 17, 17, 17, 17, 18

The mean of the ages.

= (14 + 15 + 15 + 16 + 16 + 16 + 16 + 17 + 17 + 17 + 17 + 17 + 18) / 13

= 211/13

= 16.23

The median of the ages.

= 16

Now,

18 becomes 19.

14, 15, 15, 16, 16, 16, 16, 17, 17, 17, 17, 17, 19.

Mean = 212/13 = 16.3

Median = 16

Thus,

The mean age is increased.

The median is the same.

Answer:

Use the equation for Average Rate of Change which will give you 2.7 feet per month

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation is:

[tex]\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}[/tex]

Now insert your values:

[tex]\frac{48.2-5}{16-0}[/tex]

The answer is: 2.7 feet per month

Step-by-step explanation:

how much did it grow per month ?

well, it grew from 5 to 48.2 ft in 16 months.

that means it grew 48.2 - 5 = 43.2 ft.

per month that is 43.2/16 = 2.6875 ft per month.

so, the equation would look like

x = (48.2 - 5)/16
