Using the negative binomial distribution, it is found that:
a) [tex]E(X) = 15[/tex]
b) [tex]Var(X) = 6.67[/tex]
c) [tex]P(X = 12) = 0.0883[/tex]
Negative binomial distribution:
It is the number of trials until q successes of a binomial variable, with p probability of success.
The expected value is:
[tex]E(X) = \frac{q}{p}[/tex]
The variance is:
[tex]Var(X) = \frac{pq}{(1 - p)^2}[/tex]
The probability mass function is:
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{x+q-1,q-1}(1 - p)^xp^q[/tex]
[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]
In this problem, the parameters are: [tex]q = 6, p = 0.4[/tex].
Item a:
[tex]E(X) = \frac{6}{0.4} = 15[/tex]
Item b:
[tex]Var(X) = \frac{6(0.4)}{(1 - 0.4)^2} = 6.67[/tex]
Item c:
[tex]P(X = 12) = C_{17,5}(0.6)^12(0.4)^6 = 0.0883[/tex]

Answer:
219/64
Step-by-step explanation:
x - 3 = 27/64
64(x - 3) = 27
64x - 192 = 27
64x = 27 + 192
64x = 219
x = 219/64

Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]x -3=\frac{27}{64}[/tex]
[tex]64(x-3)=27[/tex]
[tex]64x-192=27[/tex]

Answer:
k=6
?=24
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex] \frac{ln}{xz} = \frac{nm}{zy} = \frac{lm}{xy} [/tex]
[tex] \frac{36}{k + 3} = \frac{44}{k + 5} [/tex]
Now we just cross multiply
44(k+3)=36(k+5)
44k+132=36k+180
Take k-values to one side
44k-36k=180-132
8k=48
k=6
Now we can use k to find ?
[tex] \frac{44}{6 + 5} = \frac{36}{6 + 3} = \frac{?}{6} [/tex]
once simplified we get:
[tex] \frac{44}{11} = \frac{36}{9} = \frac{?}{6} [/tex]
[tex]4 = 4 = \frac{?}{6} [/tex]
in essence we know that:
[tex] \frac{4}{1} = \frac{?}{6} [/tex]
so we can cross multiply:

One advantage of a variable interest rate over a fixed interest rate is that a
variable rate:
A. is often lower initially
B. offers borrowers more flexible terms.
c. can be used for large purchases.
D. increases when the market rate increases
The term variable implies that the rate is bound to change over time, in this context variable interest rate may double as an Advantage and also as a disadvantage.
D. increases when the market rate increases
Variable interest rate is advantageous because as the market rate increases, the rate at which the customer will receive his/her interest will increase too

I’m stumped. Can you help me find the answer along with an explanation? Thanks.
Answer:
An easy way to solve this problem is divide $23.25 by 3 or $54.25 by 7. Either way, you get $7.75. This number represents the amount of money he makes for 1 hour. So with that in mind, the correct equation is:
$7.75x = y
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: y = 7.75x
Step-by-step explanation:
Find the difference of charges between 6 hours and 8 hours
62-46.5 = 15.5 for 2 hours
15.5/2 = 7.75/hr
62 = 7.75 x 8
Therefore there is no initial charge, and that the relationship is linear
so y = 7.75x

So when you are adding fractions how do you know when you need to simplify the numbers and how do you simplify?
Let's look at an example.
We'll add the fractions 1/6 and 1/8
Before we can add, the denominators must be the same.
To get the denominators to be the same, we can...
multiply top and bottom of 1/6 by 8 to get 8/48multiply top and bottom of 1/8 by 6 to get 6/48At this point, both fractions involve the denominator 48. We can add the fractions like so
8/48 + 6/48 = (8+6)/48 = 14/48
Add the numerators while keeping the denominator the same the entire time.
The last step is to reduce if possible. In this case, we can reduce. This is because 14 and 48 have the factor 2 in common. Divide each part by 2.
14/2 = 748/2 = 24The fraction 14/48 reduces to 7/24
Overall, 1/6 + 1/8 = 7/24

(15 points) Critique Reasoning Jamie says that the
expressions 6x - 2x + 4 and 4(x + 1) are not
equivalent because one expression has a term
that is subtracted and the other does not. Do
you agree? Explain.
a
Answer:
they are the same
Step-by-step explanation:
6x - 2x + 4 ← collect like terms
= 4x + 4
and
4(x + 1) ← distribute parenthesis by 4
= 4x + 4
The 2 expressions are equivalent to 4x + 4
Answer:
No, Jamie is incorrect
Step-by-step explanation:
No, because in the expression 4(x+1) you will first need to multiply 4 by x, your result is 4x, and then you multiply 4 by 1, you get 4, so the answer will be 4x+4.
Also in the expression 6x-2x+4 ,you will first need to subtract 2x from 6x, your result is 4x ,and then you add 4 , so the answer will be 4x + 4
Our final answer is:
6x-2x+4 = 4x + 4 and 4(x+1) = 4x + 4
