f. The expectation and variance of Z are 10.25 cars and 6.66 cars².

Step-by-Step Joint Probability Distribution of Cars Sold:

a. Unconditional Mean of X:

1. Calculate marginal probabilities of X:

P(X=1) = 0.57, P(X=2) = 0.29, P(X=3) = 0.14

Calculate expected value of X:

E(X) = Σ(xi × P(xi)) = (1 × 0.57) + (2 × 0.29) + (3 × 0.14) = 1.75 cars

b. Conditional Mean of X Given Y=1:

1. Calculate conditional probability:

P(X=1|Y=1) = 0.40 / 0.52

2.Calculate conditional mean:

E(X|Y=1) = (1 × 0.806) + (2 × 0.194) = 1.38 cars

c. Probability of Rachel Selling 1 Car Given Rebecca Selling 3:

1. Calculate conditional probability:

P(Y=1|X=3) = 0.15 / 0.14 = 1.07 (impossible, probabilities must be between 0 and 1)

d. Covariance and Independence:

1. Calculate joint expected values:

[tex]E(XY) = \sum (x_i \times y_i \times P(x_i,y_i)) = 2.74[/tex]

2. Calculate individual variances:

Var(X) = 0.74, Var(Y) = 0.24

3. Calculate covariance:

COV(X,Y) = E(XY) - E(X)E(Y) = 2.74 - (1.75 × 0.88) = 0.23

Since COV(X,Y) ≠ 0, X and Y are not independent.

e. Correlation Coefficient:

1. Calculate correlation coefficient:

ρ(X,Y) = COV(X,Y) / (σ(X) × σ(Y)) = 0.23 / (√0.74 × √0.24) ≈ 0.52

2. Strength: weak positive correlation (0.3-0.5)

3. Direction: positive correlation (positive coefficient)

f. Expectation and Variance of Z:

1. Use properties of mean:

E(Z) = E(3X+5) = 3E(X) + 5 = 3 × 1.75 + 5 = 10.25 cars

2. Use properties of variance:

Var(Z) = 9Var(X) = 9 × 0.74 = 6.66 cars²

Hi there!

This set you have given is not a definitive set, therefore there is not definitive answer that can be given. It is a indefinite set, which means that any set of integers can be put in as a solution to this set. Unless there are defining quantifiers then the set and solution are both infinite.

The difference between -4/5 and -3/5 is found by changing the subtraction to addition and combining the numerators, resulting in -1/5.

To find the difference between -4/5 and -3/5, you change the subtraction operation to addition by changing the sign of the second fraction. This is similar to the process described by the example, where subtracting a negative number is the same as adding its positive counterpart (e.g., 2 - (-6) = 2 + 6). In the case of fractions, the process is the same.

So, the problem -4/5 - (-3/5) becomes -4/5 + 3/5. Since both fractions have the same denominator, you can combine the numerators directly. The result is the difference of the numerators over the common denominator:

The difference between -4/5 and -3/5 is -1/5.

The fraction that is greater than 1/2 and less than 3/4 is 2/3. This is demonstrated by placing these fractions on a number line, where 2/3 falls between 1/2 and 3/4.

The question is asking for a fraction that is both greater than 1/2 (or 0.5) and less than 3/4 (or 0.75). To find such fraction, we can consider fractions between these two numbers. A possible solution is 2/3 (or approximately 0.67) which is truly greater than 1/2 and less than 3/4.

Now, let's explain this visually. If you translate these fractions on a number line, 1/2 would be at the middle of the line, 3/4 would be three quarters way forward and 2/3 would be somewhere in the middle of these two fractions.

Consider the representation on a number line, 0 -> 1/2 -> 2/3 -> 3/4 -> 1. We see that 2/3 does fall in between 1/2 and 3/4.

Answer: Option b

Step-by-step explanation:

Rachel needs two hours for a loaf of bread and one hour for one pie.

Joey needs four hours for one loaf of bread and four hours to a pie.

We want to know the opportunity cost of Rachel to make one loaf of bread.

The opportunity cost is the relation between what she wins and what she could'be wined if she chose the other option.

We know that at the same time that she bakes 1 loaf of bread she could make 2 pies, so the opportunity cost of 1 loaf of bread is option b (what she could have wined if she chose to do the pies instead in that time).

Answer:

  14/15 more pints of strawberries than grapes

Step-by-step explanation:

You want to find the difference between 2 1/3 and 1 2/5. There are several ways to do this. One is to use a common denominator for the fractions. Here, a convenient denominator is 3·5 = 15. This lets us write the problem as ...

  2 5/15 - 1 6/15

  = (2 -1) + (5/15 -6/15)

  = 1 - 1/15 . . . . of course there are 15/15 in 1, so subtracting 1 of them gives...

  = 14/15

Kelly uses 14/15 more pints of strawberries than of grapes in her juice.

We have rewritten the fraction 1/3 as 5/15. We can do this by multiplying 1/3 by 1, where 1 is in the form 5/5:

  (1/3) = (1/3)·1 = (1/3)·(5/5) = (1·5)/(3·5) = 5/15

Similarly, we have rewritten the fraction 2/5 by multiplying it by 3/3:

  (2/5) = (2/5)·(3/3) = 6/15

__

Both numbers can be converted to improper fractions:

  2 1/3 = (2·3+1)/3 = 7/3

  1 2/5 = (1·5+2)/5 = 7/5

Then the difference can be found using the formula ...

  a/b - c/d = (ad -bc)/(bd)

  7/3 -7/5 = (7·5 -7·3)/(3·5) = (35 -21)/15 = 14/15

The solution to the system of equations is [tex]\(x = \frac{20}{3}\)[/tex] and [tex]\(y = -\frac{15}{4}\).[/tex]

To solve the system of equations (3x - 4y = 35) and (3x + 4y = 5), we'll use the method of elimination.

Add the two equations together to eliminate the variable (y).

(3x - 4y) + (3x + 4y) = 35 + 5

3x - 4y + 3x + 4y = 40

6x = 40

[tex]\[ x = \frac{40}{6} \][/tex]

[tex]\[ x = \frac{20}{3} \][/tex]

Substitute [tex]\(x = \frac{20}{3}\)[/tex] into one of the original equations. Let's use the first equation:

[tex]\[ 3\left(\frac{20}{3}\right) - 4y = 35 \][/tex]

20 - 4y = 35

-4y = 35 - 20

-4y = 15

[tex]\[ y = \frac{15}{-4} \][/tex]

[tex]\[ y = -\frac{15}{4} \][/tex]

So, the solution to the system of equations is [tex]\(x = \frac{20}{3}\)[/tex] and [tex]\(y = -\frac{15}{4}\).[/tex]

The expression that represents "the difference between -17 and -8" is the second option:

-17 - (-8)

This expression translates to "negative seventeen minus negative eight," which yields the difference between the two numbers.

This expression represents "negative eight minus negative seventeen." When you subtract a negative number, it's equivalent to adding its positive counterpart. So, this expression can be simplified to:

-8 + 17 = 9

However, this result does not represent the difference between -17 and -8; it gives the difference between 17 and 8.

This expression represents "negative seventeen minus eight." This directly calculates the difference between -17 and -8. It simplifies to:

-17 - 8 = -25

This indeed represents the difference between -17 and -8.

This expression represents "negative seventeen minus negative eight." Similar to the first expression, subtracting a negative number is the same as adding its positive counterpart. So, this simplifies to:

-17 + 8 = -9

This result does not represent the difference between -17 and -8; it gives the difference between -17 and 8.

This expression represents "negative eight plus negative seventeen." It simplifies to -25, which again represents the difference between -17 and -8.

Among these expressions, only the second expression, -17 - 8, correctly represents the difference between -17 and -8.

Answer and Explanation:

Given : A spring stretches in relation to the weight hanging from it according  to the equation [tex]y = 0.75x + 0.25[/tex] where x is the weight in pounds and y is the length of the spring in inches.        

To find :

1) How to graph the equation including axis labels  ?

2) How to interpret the slope and the y-intercept of the line?

Solution :

Linear equation  [tex]y = 0.75x + 0.25[/tex]

1) To draw the graph we find the x and y-intercept of the line,

x- intercept i.e. y=0

[tex]0.75x + 0.25=0[/tex]

[tex]0.75x=-0.25[/tex]

[tex]x=-\frac{0.25}{0.75}[/tex]

[tex]x=-0.33[/tex]

y- intercept i.e. x=0

[tex]y=0.75(0) + 0.25[/tex]

[tex]y=0.25[/tex]

Plotting these two points (-0.33,0) and (0,0.25).

Refer the attached figure below.

2) The general form of line is [tex]y=mx+c[/tex]

where, m is the slope and b is the y-intercept of the line.

Comparing with given line  [tex]y = 0.75x + 0.25[/tex]

The slope of the line is m=0.75

and the y-intercept of the line is b=0.25.

Using the substitution method, the solution to the system of linear equations is: x = -7 and y = 5.

The substitution method used in solving a system of linear equations involves substituting a variable for an expression into the other equation given.

Given the system:

2x − 3y = −29 - eqn. 1

x + 4y = 13 - eqn. 2

Rewrite eqn. 2

x = 13 - 4y

Substitute x = 13 - 4y into eqn. 1

2(13 - 4y) − 3y = −29

26 - 8y - 3y = -29

-11y = -29 - 26

-11y = -55

y = 5

Plug in the value of y into x = 13 - 4y:

x = 13 - 4(5)

x = -7

The solution is: x = -7 and y = 5
