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.

Kevin will be taking six classes next semester (Algebra, World History, Psychology, Political Science, Chemistry, and Art Theory) and would like to know how many different ways he can order his class schedule given that his university offers six time slots for classes each day. Assuming there are no constraints and each class can be taken in any time slot, how many different ways can Kevin order his classes?

Answers

Answer:  720

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

Explanation:

We have 6 slots to fill A,B,C,D,E,F

There are 6 choices for choice A, then 5 choices for slot B, 4 for C, and so on until we reach one choice for slot F. Count down by 1 each time a slot is filled.

Multiply out those values to get: 6*5*4*3*2*1 = 720

In Manhattan, there are 15 CoffeeStops per 100,000 people Manhattan has approximately 1,602,000 people How many Coffee Stops are there?

Answers

Answer:

Given that 15coffee stops=100,000people

then: x= 1,602,000

100,000×x= 15×1,602,000

100,000x= 24,030,000

100,000x÷100,000= 24,030,000÷100,000

x= 240.3

so therefore there are 240.3 coffee stops if there are 1,602,000

Manhattan has approximately 1,602,000 people. Then the number of coffee shops will be 241.

What are ratio and proportion?

A ratio is a collection of ordered integers a and b represented as a/b, with b never equaling zero. A proportionate expression is one in which two items are equal.

In Manhattan, there are 15 CoffeeStops per 100,000 people.

Then the number of coffee shops per person will be

⇒ 15 / 100,000

⇒ 1.5 × 10⁻⁴ coffee shops per person

Manhattan has approximately 1,602,000 people.

Then the number of coffee shops will be

⇒ 1,602,000 × 1.5 × 10⁻⁴

⇒240.3 or 241 coffee shops

Manhattan has approximately 1,602,000 people. Then the number of coffee shops will be 241.

now, the vertex of this type, or original that'll be the origin at (0,0), and its' graph looks like a V.

now let's take a peek at the graph, hmmm from the original V-shape it moved to the left by 2 units, with a horizontal shift of C/B = 2, we can say that +2/1 gives B = 1 and  C = +2, and moved upwards by 3 units, namely D = +3.

we can also see that it flipped upside-down over the horizontal(x-axis), namely A is negative, on all choices the only value we see for A is "4", so it must be that A = -4

let's plug all those in

[tex]\begin{cases} A=-4\\ B=1\\ C=+2\\ D=+3 \end{cases}\qquad f(x)=\stackrel{A}{-4}|\stackrel{B}{1}x+\stackrel{C}{2}|+\stackrel{D}{3}\implies f(x)=-4|x+2|+3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

You can look at the ones place of each number to see if any end in 0, 2, 5, or any other digit that indicates that the number is not prime. Since 95 ends in a 5, it can be divided by 5, making it have more factors than 1 and itself. Therefore, 95 is the composite number of the list of numbers.

Answer:95

Step-by-step explanation:composite numbers are numbers that have more factors than 1 and itself, factors are numbers you can multiply to get a number. 95 is a composite number since 1,95, AND 5 are all factors of 95 making it a composite number

Suppose a quadratic equation has the form x^2 + x + c = 0. Show that the constant c must be less than 1/4 in order for the equation to have two real solutions.

Answers

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a quadratic equation in standard form

ax² + bx + c = 0 ( a ≠ 0 )

Then for the equation to have 2 real roots , the discriminant must be greater than zero , that is

b² - 4ac > 0

x² + x + c = 0 ← is in standard form

with a = 1, b = 1, c = c , then

b² - 4ac > 0

1² - (4 × 1 × c) > 0

1 - 4c > 0 ( subtract 1 from both sides )

- 4c > - 1

Divide both sides by - 4, reversing the inequality as a result of dividing by a negative quantity.

Write the equation of the line perpendicular to y = 8 - 5z that contains the point (0, 0) . Fill in the slope and y-intercept

Answers

The equation of the line perpendicular to y = 8 - 5z is 5x+8y=16.

8y=-5x+16

y=-5/8x+2.

To be perpendicular, the slope has to be 8/5.

What is the slope-intercept form of the line?

The slope-intercept form is y=mx+c

Where m is the slope and c is the y-intercept.

So y=8/5x+b.

We can plug in the given coordinates to get

7=8/5*-5+b

7=-8+b

b=15.

So eqn is y=8/5x+15 or in point-slope form, y=8/5x+15

5y=8x+75

5y-8x=75

The equation of the line perpendicular to y = 8 - 5z is 5x+8y=16.
