How many cubic (i.e., third-degree) polynomials $f(x)$ are there such that $f(x)$ has positive integer coefficients and $f(1)=9$

? (note: all coefficients must be positive---coefficients are not permitted to be 0, so for example $f(x) = x^3 + 8$ is not a valid polynomial.)?

One hundred items are simultaneously put on a life test. Suppose the lifetimes
romanna [79]

Answer:

a) \mathrm{E}[\mathrm{T}]=\sum_{\mathrm{H}}^{5} \frac{200}{101-i}

b) \mathrm{Var}[\mathrm{T}]=\sum_{k=1}^{5} \frac{(200)^{2}}{(101-i)^{2}}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The lifetimes of the individual items are independent exponential random variables.

Mean = 200 hours.

Assume, Ti be the time between ( i-1 )st and the ith failures. Then, the T_{i} are independent with \mathrm{T}_{\mathrm{i}} being exponential with rate \frac{(101-i)}{200} .

Therefore,

a) E[T]=\sum_{i=1}^{5} E\left[\tau_{i}\right]

=\sum_{i=1}^{5} \frac{200}{101-i}

\therefore \mathrm{E}[\mathrm{T}]=\sum_{\mathrm{H}}^{5} \frac{200}{101-i}

b)

The variance is given by, \mathrm{Var}[\mathrm{T}]=\sum_{i=1}^{5} \mathrm{Var}[T]

\therefore \mathrm{Var}[\mathrm{T}]=\sum_{k=1}^{5} \frac{(200)^{2}}{(101-i)^{2}}
