Which graph shows a function where f(2)= 4?

A father is now twice as old as his son. If the sum of their ages ten years ago was fifty two, how old are they today?

Oliga [24]

Answer:

24 and 48

Today, the son is 24 years old, and the father is 48 years old.

Step-by-step explanation:

(x - 10) + (2x - 10) = 52

3x + 20 = 52

3x = 72

x = 24

The father is 2 times his son's age.

2x

= 2(24)

= 48

So, the son is 24 and the father is 48.

10 years ago, son was 14 and father was 38, if added, this adds up to 52, so we know our calculations are correct.

Suppose that X has an exponential distribution with mean equal to 10. Determine the following: a. P(X > 10) b. P(X > 20) c

GrogVix [38]

Answer:

(a) The value of P (X > 10) is 0.3679.

(b) The value of P (X > 20) is 0.1353.

(c) The value of P (X < 30) is 0.9502.

(d) The value of x is 30.

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability density function of an exponential distribution is:

$f(x)=\lambda e^{-\lambda x};\ x>0, \lambda>0$

The value of E (X) is 10.

The parameter λ is:

$\lambda=\frac{1}{E(X)}=\frac{1}{10}=0.10$

(a)

Compute the value of P (X > 10) as follows:

$P(X>10)=\int\limits^{\infty}_{10} {0.10 e^{-0.10 x}} \, dx \\=0.10\int\limits^{\infty}_{10} { e^{-0.10 x}} \, dx\\=0.10|\frac{e^{-0.10 x}}{-0.10} |^{\infty}_{10}\\=|e^{-0.10 x} |^{\infty}_{10}\\=e^{-0.10\times10}\\=0.3679$

Thus, the value of P (X > 10) is 0.3679.

(b)

Compute the value of P (X > 20) as follows:

$P(X>20)=\int\limits^{\infty}_{20} {0.10 e^{-0.10 x}} \, dx \\=0.10\int\limits^{\infty}_{20} { e^{-0.10 x}} \, dx\\=0.10|\frac{e^{-0.10 x}}{-0.10} |^{\infty}_{20}\\=|e^{-0.10 x} |^{\infty}_{20}\\=e^{-0.10\times20}\\=0.1353$

Thus, the value of P (X > 20) is 0.1353.

(c)

Compute the value of P (X < 30) as follows:

$P(X$

Thus, the value of P (X < 30) is 0.9502.

(d)

It is given that, P (X < x) = 0.95.

Compute the value of <em>x</em> as follows:

$P(X$

Take natural log on both sides.

$ln(e^{-0.10x})=ln(0.05)\\-0.10x=-2.996\\x=\frac{2.996}{0.10}\\ =29.96\\\approx30$

Thus, the value of x is 30.

If C = 2m2 + m and D = 2 – 6m + 2m², find an expression that equals<br> 2C - 2D in standard form.

lidiya [134]

C = 2m^2 + m
D = 2 - 6m + 2m^2

2C = 2(2m^2 + m) = 4m^2+2m
2D = 2(2-6m+2m^2) = 4-12m+4m^2

2C - 2D =
4m^2+2m-(4-12m+4m^2) =
4m^2+2m-4+12m-4m^2 =
0m^2 + 14m -4 =
14m - 4
