Answer:
1.967 × 10⁻¹¹
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a conditional probability problem
Probability that a 12 year old leaf blower works for 5 more years = Probabilty that a leaf blower works for 17 years, given that it has worked for 12 years = P(17|12)
P(17|12) = P(17 n 12)/P(12)
P(17 n 12) = P(17)
Exponential random variable is given as
f(x) = λ e^(-λ.x)
λ = rate parameter = 5 years per blower
x = variable whose probability is required = 17
f(17) = 17 e^(-5×17)
f(17) = 17 e⁻⁸⁵ = 2.067 × 10⁻³⁶
f(12) = 12 e^(-5×12)
f(12) = 12 e⁻⁶⁰ = 1.051 × 10⁻²⁵
P(17|12) = (2.067 × 10⁻³⁶)/(1.051 × 10⁻²⁵)
P(17|12) = 1.967 × 10⁻¹¹
Answer:
$8.65
Step-by-step explanation:
1.25+4.75+2.50=8.5
8.5+0.056(5.6%)=8.65
f(x) means the function of x
so the function is the input is x and the output is f(x), read "f of x". The output f(x) is sometimes given an additional name y by y = f(x). The example that comes to mind is the square root function on your calculator.

Answer:
9 7/12
Step-by-step explanation:
12 is a suitable common denominator.
(7 3/4) + (1 5/6) = (7 9/12) + (1 10/12) = (7+1) +(9/12 +10/12)
= 8 + 19/12 = 9 + 7/12 . . . . . . change 19/12 to 1 7/12
= 9 7/12
