Homework Statement Homework Equations No equations used (to my knowledge). Just arithmetic and understanding of what is being asked. The Attempt at a Solution Was wondering if my solution/approach to this question is correct or not? I don't have any answers to compare it to so any...

I got a c value of 1/3 by doing this (1 = c/2 + ½ -c + 2/3 ) Then for part (i): Probability = 1/6th or 16.67% (ii) Probability = 2/3rds or 66.67% (iii) Probability = 1/3rd or 33.3% (iv) Probability = 1/2 or 50% I think I've got it now providing those are the right answers!

This is what I did but I don't think I'm going in a correct direction. C = constant whereas c = the value I'm looking for.

Thank you for that. I figured it might have had something to do with the expectation formula. E[X] = 1 in terms of c. There are definitions for the expectation of continuous random variables and for discrete ones as well. For a mixed distribution you would need to mix both definitions together...

Homework Statement See attached image (See below) Homework Equations Differential equations. And a combination of discrete & continuous distributions The Attempt at a Solution The Continous Distribution Function (CDF) is given in the question. So I differentiated it with respect to x...

My bad! I calculated it as if it was e-16.8 just left it as 2.4 when I wrote it! my bad. Thanks for the help though! My bad, again; not sure why I did that. Was in a rush responding. Appreciate the feedback. Cheers!

At least 10, Therefore we need to examine P(X=10). Over 7 years λ = (2.4)(7yrs) = 16.8 P(X=10) = e-2.4(16.810/10!) = 0.02495 (~2.5%) is this correct?

Homework Statement The number of tornadoes per year, in Georgia, has a Poisson distribution with a mean of 2.4 tornadoes. Calculate the probability that in any given year, there will be: (i) At most 2 cases. (ii) At least one case. (iii) Calculate the probability that there will be...

I've a problem with a question regarding a closed spherical storage tank of 30m^3. Its filled to the 99% mark with Nitric acid and the tank is made of stainless steel. I'm trying to determine the temperature rise that will cause the liquid to completely fill the vessel. I know that as the...

Sorry that should have said the limits of y are x^2 and 9 so when we integrate with respect to y those are the limits. It was a poorly written post. That is embarrassing, I totally overlooked the other value of y despite specifying it. Brain fart. Thanks for the help!

I am currently practicing questions on Green's Theorem however in some questions I have been given a finite region enclosed between a parabola and a horizontal line. In these questions I am given 2 values of y but none of x. In one question I was given that y = x^2 and y = 9 and was...

That's what I was thinking too, like is it even possible to continue this sort of calculation without the RL or initial instrument height? I'm really left in the dark with this one.

I recently did a level survey however am a little stumped over a calculation. I am trying to calculate the Reduced Level using the "Height of Instrument" method. I know how to do the calculations etc. so I am not asking for this to be done for me. It is more of a general question about this sort...

Got it sorted! I forgot about the pin and realized where I was going wrong cheers for that!
