You have three keys in your pocket which you extract in a random way to unlock a lock. Assume that exactly one key opens the door when you pick it out of your pocket. Find the expectation value of the number of times you need to pick out a key to unlock.

Let X be the random variable for this question. P(X=x) = 1/3 for all x. When X=x, we have that it took x times for us to retrieve the correct key.Thus, we have the infinite sum 1/3 + 2 2/3 1/3 + 3*(2/3)^2 1/...

A curve has equation y = e^(3x-x^3) . Find the exact values of the coordinates of the stationary points of the curve and determine the nature of these stationary points.

In order to find the stationary points we need to find the first derivative, set it to 0 and solve for x. We can then use this value to find the value for y.y = e (3x-x^3) We know for the derivative of e to ...
