Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The distribution is Uniform and is continuous.

We are given a = 25 and b = 446

The mean of the distribution is

Mean = µ = (a + b) / 2

= (25 + 44) / 2

= 34.5

The standard deviation of the distribution is  

SD = σ = (b – a) / sqrt(12)

= (46 – 25) / sqrt(12)

= 21/3.464102

= 6.062minutes

SD = σ = 6.062minutes

Now, we have to find P(30<X<40)

P(30<X<40)

= (40 – 30) / (46 – 25)

= 10/19

= 0.4762

Required probability = 0.4762

Now, we have to find the value of a for which P(X≤a) = 0.9

We have, P(X≤a)

= (a – 25) / (46 – 25)

= (a – 25) / 21

(a – 25) / 21 = 0.9

(a – 25) = 0.9*21

So, a = 18.9 + 25 = 43.

a = 43.9

= 43.9minutes

Answer:

The distribution is uniform and is continuous probability distribution.

The mean of the distribution is μ= <u>35.5 minutes</u>.

The standard deviation of the distribution is σ= <u>6.06 </u>

P(30<x<40)= 0.476

Step-by-step explanation:

a.The amount of time in minutes until the next bus departs is uniformly distributed between 25 and 46 inclusive.

The distribution is<u> uniform</u> and is <u>continuous probability distribution.</u>

b.Let X be the number of minutes the next bus arrives and a= 25 , b= 46. Hence mean = a+b/2= 25+ 46/ 2= 35.5 minutes.

The mean of the distribution is μ= <u>35.5 minutes</u>.

c. Standard deviation =   √(b-a)²/12

Standard deviation= √(46-25)²/12= √(21)²/12= √441/12=√36.75= 6.06

The standard deviation of the distribution is σ= <u>6.06 </u>

d. P(30<x<40)

<em>For this we draw a graph . It is also called the rectangular distribution because its total probability is confined to a rectangular region with base equal to (b-a) and height 1/(b-a) .</em>

This can be calculated as

P(30<x<40)= base * height  (in this probability the base is 10)

= (40-30) *(1/ 21)= 10/21= 0.476

How do you solve: f(x) = -x2e-x<br> +2xe-x , finding the zero's of f.
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

0 and 2

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = -x^2e^{-x}+2xe^{-x}

To find zeros set f(x)=0  and solve for x

0 = -x^2e^{-x}+2xe^{-x}

0 = -e^{-x}(x^2-2x)

now factor out x

0 = -xe^{-x}(x-2)

set each factor =0 and solve for x

x=0

-e^{-x}=0 no solution for x

x-2=0, x=2

zeros of f  are 0 and 2

Three times the sum of a number and 17 is at least 22 translate
shutvik [7]
Hi there!
We are given a question that asks us to translate some given information into numerical format, or numbers. We can do that by first finding key words. Such words are sum and at least. Sum indicates addition, while at least indicates a greater than or equal to sign, or ≥. Now that we have found our key info, we can move on.
The question states that 3 times the sum of a number and 17. The 'sum of a number and 17' part can be represented by the expression x + 17, where x is some number. Next, three times means that we need to multiply 3 to the expression x + 17, giving us 3(x + 17). Finally, the question gives us that the whole expression 3(x + 17) is 'at least', or greater than or equal to, 22. Hence, we get the inequality 3(x + 17) ≥ 22, which is also our answer. Hope this has come of assistance to you and have a great day!
