Let x = price of shoes
Then price of jacket would be x - 5.81
Combining the two would give you
x + x - 5.81 = 99.15
combining like terms simplifies to 2x - 5.81 = 99.15;
now adding 5.81 to both sides of the equal sign leaves
2x = 104.96
and finally, dividing both sides by 2, gives x = $52.48; which is the cost of the shoes.  Recall, the cost of the jacket is 5.81 less than the cost of the shoes.
so, COST OF THE JACKET is 52.48 - 5.81 = $46.67

Find the weighted average of these values
Artemon [7]
I am pretty sure that the main thing that we should do to solve this task is to do this : 5(0.75)+6(0.15)+7(0.10)3.75+0.9+0.7&#10;&#10;&#10;5.35 which is weighted average as it only can be found by adding <span>the products of each corresponding value. Hope everything is clear! Regards!</span>

You are given a rectangular sheet of cardboard that measures 11 in. by 8.5 in. (see the diagram below). A small square of the sa
GaryK [48]

Answer:

Terrence's

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of the square that will be cut out is the height of the box.

1. a

Anya's method: 8.5 -1.5 =7, 11- 1.5 =9.5, the height is 1.5, so the volume is height x length x width which is 1.5 x 9.5 x 7 =99.75 squared inches.

Terrence's method: 8.5-3 = 5.5, 11-3 = 8. Vol= 5.5 x 8 x 3 =132 squared inches. 99.75 < 132 squared inches, Terrence's idea would create larger volume.

1. b

The box's size depends on the length/width/height of the cardboard being cut, which is why different measurements / cutting methods for the same size cardboard can result in different box sizes.

2. The square would be cut from all four corners, therefore the sum of the 2 squares on the cardboard cannot exceed the short side of the cardboard. The shorter side of the cardboard is 8.5 inches, divided by 2 = 4.25 inches, hence the squares cannot  be larger than 4.25 inches. Keep in mind that if you cut exactly 4.25 inches you will have a strip of 2.5 inches width that cannot be turned into a box.

If you want to cut 5 inches squares out, depending on how you draw it, it would either overlap or go outside of the paper because 5+5 is ten, surely on the 11 inches side that would still be perfectly fine but for the 8.5 inches side, there isn't any room for the 10 inches.

We have k coins. The probability of Heads is the same for each coin and is the realized value q of a random variable Q that is u
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is not in correct order ; so the first thing we are required to do is to put them together in the right form to make it easier to proof; having said that. let's get started!.

From the second part " You may find the following integral useful: For any non-negative integers k and m,"

The next  equation goes thus : \int\limits^1_0 \ \  q^k (1-q)^m dq = \frac{k!m!}{(k+m+1)!}

a. Find the PMF of T_1 .   (Express your answer in terms of t using standard notation.)

For t=1,2…,

p_T_1(t)= \frac{1}{(t*(t*1))}  by using conditional probability to solve PMF

b)  Find the least mean squares (LMS) estimate of Q based on the observed value, t, of T1. (Express your answer in terms of t using standard notation.)

By using the mathematical definition of integration to solve the estimate of Q:

E|Q|T_1=t|= \frac{2}{t+2}

c)  We flip each of the k coins until they result in Heads for the first time. Compute the maximum a posteriori (MAP) estimate q^ of Q given the number of tosses needed, T1=t1,…,Tk=tk, for each coin.

The MAP estimate of  q is :

\bar q = \frac{k}{\sum^k_{i=1}}t_i
