Dan is fourteen years older than Marge. Eight years ago, Dan was three times as old as Marge. Find their present age.
34kurt

Answer:

<u>Marge's</u> present age = 14 ; <u>Dan's</u> present age = 29

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Present age

Let Marge's present age be = M

Dan's present age [D] : 14 years elder than Marge = M + 14

  • 8 years ago  

Marge Age = M - 8

Dan's Age = D - 8 = (M + 14) - 8 = M + 6  

{Given} : Dan's age = 3 times Marge's age

M + 6 = 3 (M - 8)

M + 6 = 3M - 24

6 + 24 = 3M - M

30 = 2M

M = 30/2

M = 15 [Marge's present age]

Dan's present age [D] = M + 14 = 29

Let Xn be the random variable that equals the number of tails minus the number of heads when n fair coins are flipped. What is t
Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

the expected value of Xn , E(Xn) = 0 and the variance σ²(Xn) = n*(1-2n)

Step-by-step explanation:

If X1= number of tails when n fair coins are flipped , then X1 follows a binomial distribution with E(X1) = n*p , p=0,5 and the number of heads obtained is X2=n-X1

therefore

Xn =X1-X2 = X1- (n-X1) = 2X1-n

thus

E(Xn) =∑ (2*X1-n) p(X1) =  2*∑[X1 p(X1)] -n∑p(X1) = 2*E(X1)-n = 2*n*p--n= 2*n*1/2 -n = n-n =0

the variance will be

σ²(Xn) = ∑ [Xn - E(Xn)]² p(Xn) = ∑ [(2X1-n) - 0 ]² p(X1) = ∑ (4*X1²-4*X1*n+n²) p(X1) = = 4*∑ X1²p(X1) - 4n ∑X1 p(X1) -  n²∑p(X1) = 2*E(X1²) -4n*E(X1)- n²

since

σ²(X1) = n*p*(1-p) = n*0,5*0,5=n/4

and

σ²(X1) = E(X1²) - [E(X1)]²

n/4 = E(X1²) - (n/2)²

E(X1²) = n(n+1)/4

therefore

σ²(Xn) = 4*E(X1²) -4n*E(X1)- n² = 4*n(n+1)/4 - 4*n*n/2 - n² = n(n+1) - 2n² - n²

= n - 2n² = n(1-2n)

σ²(Xn) = n(1-2n)

Identify the slope of the graphed line: Identify the y-intercept of the graphed line: Identify the slope of the line given by th
aniked [119]

PART 1: Identify the slope of the graphed line

To find the slope, I will use the slope formula: m = (y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁) using the points (0, 1) & (3, 0).

m = (0 - 1) / (3 - 0)

m = - 1 / 3

The slope of the graphed line is negative one-third: - 1/3.

PART 2: Identify the y-intercept of the graphed line

The y-intercept of a line is the point where the line crosses the y-axis. In this problem, the line crosses the y-axis at y = 1.

PART 3: Identify the slope of the line given by the equation

The given equation is written in the slope-intercept form: y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. The slope of the line as shown by the equation is 1/2.

PART 4: Identify the y-intercept of the line given by the equation

As previously stated, the equation is written is the slope-intercept form, so to find the y-intercept in the equation, all we need to do is find the value for b. In this case, b = -1.

Hope this helps!
