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
The answer would just be 50/1 or just 50
2.12+3x=9.45
each juice was about $2.44, so your answer was correct!
Answer:
Ummm -6 and -4
Step-by-step explanation:
Duh
Answer:
We have that the sum of two numbers is 9
this can be written as:
x + y = 9
where x is the larger number.
Now we want to write:
"the difference between one more than the larger number and twice the smaller number"
First, remember that the difference between A and B is:
A - B
Then "the difference between one more than the larger number and twice the smaller number"
is:
"one more than the larger number" = ( x + 1)
"twice the smaller number" = 2*y
the difference between these is:
(x + 1) - 2*y
Now we can simplify:
We know that:
x + y = 9
then:
y = 9 - x
replacing that in the equation:
(x + 1) - 2*y
we would get:
x + 1 - 2*(9 - x)
x + 1 -18 + 2x
(x + 2x) + (1 - 18)
3x - 17
This means that we can write:
"the difference between one more than the larger number and twice the smaller number"
as: 3x - 17
