- Can you prove this integral equation?Note: It also has an application to prove that 22/7 > π.arrow_forward1. The number of claims is modelled by a NB2(n, p) (the number of fail- ures before the nth success with probability p of success). The sample x = (x1, x2,,XN) with N = 100 returns N N xj = 754, Σε = 70425. j=1 Estimate the parameters n and p using the point estimates. [5 Marks]arrow_forwardf(x) = x + 1; x(x) = x − 2. Solve the equation for x : |f(x)+4(x)| = |f(x)|+|4(x)|. 00arrow_forward
