Canadians who visit the United States often buy liquor and cigarettes, which are much cheaper in the United States. However, there are limitations. Canadians visiting in the United States for more than 2 days are allowed to bring into Canada one bottle of liquor and one carton of cigarettes. A Canada Customs agent has produced the following joint probability distribution of the number of bottles of liquor and the number of cartons of cigarettes imported by Canadians who have visited the United States for 2 or more days.

a. Find the marginal probability distribution of the number of bottles imported.

P(0 Bottles) =
P(1 Bottle) =

b. Find the marginal probability distribution of the number of cigarette cartons imported.

P(0 Cartons) =
P(1 Carton) =

c. Compute the mean and variance of the number of bottles of liquor imported.

Mean =
Variance =

d. Compute the mean and variance of the number of cigarette cartons imported.

Mean =
Variance =

e. Compute the covariance and the coefficient of correlation.

Answer:

(a): Marginal pmf of x

[tex]P(0) = 0.72[/tex]

[tex]P(1) = 0.28[/tex]

(b): Marginal pmf of y

[tex]P(0) = 0.81[/tex]

[tex]P(1) = 0.19[/tex]

(c): Mean and Variance of x

[tex]E(x) = 0.28[/tex]

[tex]Var(x) = 0.2016[/tex]

(d): Mean and Variance of y

[tex]E(y) = 0.19[/tex]

[tex]Var(y) = 0.1539[/tex]

(e): The covariance and the coefficient of correlation

[tex]Cov(x,y) = 0.0468[/tex]

[tex]r \approx 0.2657[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x = bottles

y = carton

See attachment for complete question

Solving (a): Marginal pmf of x

This is calculated as:

[tex]P(x) = \sum\limits^{}_y\ P(x,y)[/tex]

So:

[tex]P(0) = P(0,0) + P(0,1)[/tex]

[tex]P(0) = 0.63 + 0.09[/tex]

[tex]P(0) = 0.72[/tex]

[tex]P(1) = P(1,0) + P(1,1)[/tex]

[tex]P(1) = 0.18 + 0.10[/tex]

[tex]P(1) = 0.28[/tex]

Solving (b): Marginal pmf of y

This is calculated as:

[tex]P(y) = \sum\limits^{}_x\ P(x,y)[/tex]

So:

[tex]P(0) = P(0,0) + P(1,0)[/tex]

[tex]P(0) = 0.63 + 0.18[/tex]

[tex]P(0) = 0.81[/tex]

[tex]P(1) = P(0,1) + P(1,1)[/tex]

[tex]P(1) = 0.09 + 0.10[/tex]

[tex]P(1) = 0.19[/tex]

Solving (c): Mean and Variance of x

Mean is calculated as:

[tex]E(x) = \sum( x * P(x))[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]E(x) = 0 * P(0) + 1 * P(1)[/tex]

[tex]E(x) = 0 * 0.72 + 1 * 0.28[/tex]

[tex]E(x) = 0 + 0.28[/tex]

[tex]E(x) = 0.28[/tex]

Variance is calculated as:

[tex]Var(x) = E(x^2) - (E(x))^2[/tex]

Calculate [tex]E(x^2)[/tex]

[tex]E(x^2) = \sum( x^2 * P(x))[/tex]

[tex]E(x^2) = 0^2 * 0.72 + 1^2 * 0.28[/tex]

[tex]E(x^2) = 0 + 0.28[/tex]

[tex]E(x^2) = 0.28[/tex]

So:

[tex]Var(x) = E(x^2) - (E(x))^2[/tex]

[tex]Var(x) = 0.28 - 0.28^2[/tex]

[tex]Var(x) = 0.28 - 0.0784[/tex]

[tex]Var(x) = 0.2016[/tex]

Solving (d): Mean and Variance of y

Mean is calculated as:

[tex]E(y) = \sum(y * P(y))[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]E(y) = 0 * P(0) + 1 * P(1)[/tex]

[tex]E(y) = 0 * 0.81 + 1 * 0.19[/tex]

[tex]E(y) = 0+0.19[/tex]

[tex]E(y) = 0.19[/tex]

Variance is calculated as:

[tex]Var(y) = E(y^2) - (E(y))^2[/tex]

Calculate [tex]E(y^2)[/tex]

[tex]E(y^2) = \sum(y^2 * P(y))[/tex]

[tex]E(y^2) = 0^2 * 0.81 + 1^2 * 0.19[/tex]

[tex]E(y^2) = 0 + 0.19[/tex]

[tex]E(y^2) = 0.19[/tex]

So:

[tex]Var(y) = E(y^2) - (E(y))^2[/tex]

[tex]Var(y) = 0.19 - 0.19^2[/tex]

[tex]Var(y) = 0.19 - 0.0361[/tex]

[tex]Var(y) = 0.1539[/tex]

Solving (e): The covariance and the coefficient of correlation

Covariance is calculated as:

[tex]COV(x,y) = E(xy) - E(x) * E(y)[/tex]

Calculate E(xy)

[tex]E(xy) = \sum (xy * P(xy))[/tex]

This gives:

[tex]E(xy) = x_0y_0 * P(0,0) + x_1y_0 * P(1,0) +x_0y_1 * P(0,1) + x_1y_1 * P(1,1)[/tex]

[tex]E(xy) = 0*0 * 0.63 + 1*0 * 0.18 +0*1 * 0.09 + 1*1 * 0.1[/tex]

[tex]E(xy) = 0+0+0 + 0.1[/tex]

[tex]E(xy) = 0.1[/tex]

So:

[tex]COV(x,y) = E(xy) - E(x) * E(y)[/tex]

[tex]Cov(x,y) = 0.1 - 0.28 * 0.19[/tex]

[tex]Cov(x,y) = 0.1 - 0.0532[/tex]

[tex]Cov(x,y) = 0.0468[/tex]

The coefficient of correlation is then calculated as:

[tex]r = \frac{Cov(x,y)}{\sqrt{Var(x) * Var(y)}}[/tex]

[tex]r = \frac{0.0468}{\sqrt{0.2016 * 0.1539}}[/tex]

[tex]r = \frac{0.0468}{\sqrt{0.03102624}}[/tex]

[tex]r = \frac{0.0468}{0.17614266944}[/tex]

[tex]r = 0.26569371378[/tex]

[tex]r \approx 0.2657[/tex] --- approximated

A grain dealer sold to one customer 5 bushels of wheat, 2 of com, and 3 of ryo, for $228: to another, 2 of wheat, 3 of corn, and 5 of ryo, for $228, and to a third, 3 of wheat, 5 of com, and 2 of rye, for $228. What was the price per bushel for com?

Answers

Answer:

2.30 :) hope this helps!!!!!!! :)

Step-by-step explanation:

w = wheat     c = corn    r = rye

6w + 3c + 6r = 45.90

3w + 6c + 6r = 49.20

6w + 6c + 3r = 41.40

since you want the answer for c, manipulate then add 2 equations that will get rid of 1 variable:

if we multiply the first equation by -1 then add it to the second equation, it will eliminate the r

-6w -  3c -  6r = - 45.90

3w + 6c + 6r =   49.20

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

- 3w +3c  =      3.30    or     w - c = - 1.10

If we multiply the 3rd equation by -2 then add it to the first equation, it will eliminate the  r  again:

-12w - 12c -  6r = - 82.80

  6w + 3c + 6r =    45.90

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

- 6w - 9c         =  - 36.90   or       2w + 3c  =   12.30

now we have 2 equations and 2 variables that we can solve by substitution:

w = c - 1.10

2(c - 1.10)  + 3c = 12.30

2c - 2.20 + 3c   =   12.30

5c = 14.50

c = 2.90      

w = c - 1.10   or  1.80

3r = 41.40 - 6(1.80) - 6(2.90)

3r = 13.20    r = 4.40

I will pick the 2nd equation to check my answers :)!

3(1.80) +  6(2.90)  + 6(4.40)  = 49.20

5.40 + 17.40 + 26.40 =  49.20

As per linear equation, the price per bushel for corn is $22.8.

What is a linear equation?

A linear equation is an equation that has one or multiple variable with the highest power of the variable is 1.

Given, a grain dealer sold to one customer 5 bushels of wheat, 2 of corn, and 3 of rye, for $228.

To another customer, he sold 2 of wheat, 3 of corn, and 5 of rye, for $228.

To a third customer, 3 of wheat, 5 of corn, and 2 of rye, for $228.

Let, per piece of wheat is of $x.

Per piece of corn is of $y.

Per piece of rye is of $z.

Therefore, 5x + 2y + 3z = 228 ....(1)

2x + 3y + 5z = 228 .........................(2)

3x + 5y +2z = 228 ..........................(3)

Multiplying equation(1) by '2' and equation(2) by '5' and substract, we get:

2(5x + 2y + 3z) - 5(2x + 3y + 5z) = 2(228) - 5(228)

⇒ (10x + 4y + 6z) - (10x + 15y + 25z) = - 3(228)

⇒ (- 11y - 19z) = - 684

⇒ 11y + 19z = 684 ......(4)

Multiplying equation(2) by '3' and equation(3) by '2' and substract, we get:

3(2x + 3y + 5z) - 2(3x + 5y +2z) = 3(228) - 2(228)

⇒ (6x + 9y + 15z) - (6x + 10y + 4z) = 228

⇒ - y + 11z = 228 .......(5)

Now, multiplying equation(5) by '11' and then add with equation (4), we get:

 11y + 19z + 11(- y + 11z) = 684 + 11(228)

⇒ 140z = 3192

⇒ z = 22.8

Putting the value of 'z' in equation (5) we get:

- y + 11(22.8) = 228

⇒ y = 22.8

Now, putting the values of 'y' and 'z' in equation (1), we get:

5x + 2(22.8) + 3(22.8) = 228

⇒ 5x = 114

⇒ x = 22.8

In the figure below, m∠A = 72° and m∠B = (5x + 8)°.



If ∠A and ∠B are supplementary angles, which equation represents their relationship, and what is the value of x?

A.
72 + (5x + 8) = 90
x = 34
B.
72 + (5x + 8) = 180
x = 52
C.
72 + (5x + 8) = 90
x = 2
D.
72 + (5x + 8) = 180
x = 20

Answers

Answer:

D. 72 + (5x + 8) = 180, x = 20.

Step-by-step explanation:

Supplementary angles are angles that add up to 180, so the equation would be 72 + (5x + 8) = 180.

Now here, to find the value of x, solve for x.

72 + (5x + 8) = 180

5x + 8 = 108

5x = 100

x = 20

Your answer is D, 72 + (5x + 8) = 180, x = 20.

X is a discrete random variable. The graph below defines a probability distribution for X.
What is the expected value of X?

Answers

Answer: 1.1

Step-by-step explanation:

Expected value is the weighted average of the various possibilities and their probability of occurring.

The probabilities represented are:

0.35, 0.35, 0.15 and 0.15.

They add up to:

= 0.35 +0.35 + 0.15 + 0.15

= 1

The possibilities are; 0, 1, 2 and 3.

Expected value = (0.35 * 0) + (0.35 * 1) + (0.15 *2) + ( 0.15 * 3)

What is the value of the two-sample t statistic for comparing the two population means

Answers

Answer:

T statistic = 0.256

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

High capacity rats:

nh = 8

Xh = 89

s²h = 81

Low capacity rats :

nl = 8

Xl = 105

s²l = 169

Test statistic :

(Xh - Xl) ÷ Sp(sqrt(1/nh + 1/nl))

Pooled variance (Sp) :

[(nh - 1)s²h + (nl - 1)s²l] ÷ (nh + nl - 2)

[(8 - 1)*81 + (8 - 1)*169] ÷ (8 + 8 - 2)

(7*81 + 7*169) ÷ 14

= 1750 / 14

= 125

Hence,

(89 - 105) ÷ 125(sqrt[1/8 + 1/8)

16 ÷ (125 * 0.5)

To find the y- intercept of the line, substitute x= 0 into the equation.

y= 2x +8

When x= 0,

y= 2(0) +8

y= 8

Thus, the y-intercept of the line is (0, 8).
