Answer:
a) 0.96
b) 0.016
c) 0.018
d) 0.982
e) x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given with the Probability density function f(x)= 2/x^3 where x > 1.
<em>Firstly we will calculate the general probability that of P(a < X < b) </em>
P(a < X < b) = 
= 
= ![2[ \frac{x^{-3+1} }{-3+1}]^{b}_a dx](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=2%5B%20%5Cfrac%7Bx%5E%7B-3%2B1%7D%20%7D%7B-3%2B1%7D%5D%5E%7Bb%7D_a%20%20%20dx)
{ Because ![\int_{a}^{b} x^{n} dx = [ \frac{x^{n+1} }{n+1}]^{b}_a](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cint_%7Ba%7D%5E%7Bb%7D%20x%5E%7Bn%7D%20dx%20%3D%20%5B%20%5Cfrac%7Bx%5E%7Bn%2B1%7D%20%7D%7Bn%2B1%7D%5D%5E%7Bb%7D_a)
}
= ![2[ \frac{x^{-2} }{-2}]^{b}_a](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=2%5B%20%5Cfrac%7Bx%5E%7B-2%7D%20%7D%7B-2%7D%5D%5E%7Bb%7D_a)
= ![\frac{2}{-2} [ x^{-2} ]^{b}_a](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7B2%7D%7B-2%7D%20%5B%20x%5E%7B-2%7D%20%5D%5E%7Bb%7D_a)
= ![-1 [ b^{-2} - a^{-2} ]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=-1%20%5B%20b%5E%7B-2%7D%20-%20a%5E%7B-2%7D%20%20%5D)
= 
a) Now P(X < 5) = P(1 < X < 5) {because x > 1 }
Comparing with general probability we get,
P(1 < X < 5) = 
= 
= 0.96 .
b) P(X > 8) = P(8 < X < ∞) = 1/
- 1/∞ = 1/64 - 0 = 0.016
c) P(6 < X < 10) = 
= 
= 0.018 .
d) P(x < 6 or X > 10) = P(1 < X < 6) + P(10 < X < ∞)
= 
+ (1/
- 1/∞) = 1 - 1/36 + 1/100 + 0 = 0.982
e) We have to find x such that P(X < x) = 0.75 ;
⇒ P(1 < X < x) = 0.75
⇒ 
= 0.75
⇒ 
= 1 - 0.75 = 0.25
⇒ 
= 
⇒ = 4 ⇒ x = 
Therefore, value of x such that P(X < x) = 0.75 is 2.
A. 0.65 < 0.77 0.77 is greater than 0.65
A tetrahedron is a triangular pyramid. It has four triangular faces and four vertices.
In the question, we are told that the length of the edges are all equal = 20m and the length from one corner to the center of the base = 11.5m
We sketch a diagram of a tetrahedron with the given measurement as shown below
To find the height, we will use the Pythagoras theorem
20² = h² + 11.5²
h² = 20² - 11.5²
h² = 267.75
h = √267.75
h = 16.36 (rounded to two decimal places)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
To get the value of the expressions in list A and list B we will substitute y = 5 in each expression.
List A List B
1). 6 + 6y = 6 + 6(5) = 36 6y - 6 = 6(5) - 6 = 24
2). 6(y - 1) = 6(5 - 1) = 24 6(y + 1) = 6(5 + 1) = 36
3). 6y + 1 = 6(5) + 1 = 31 1 + 6y = 1 + 6(5) = 31
Therefore, (6 + 6y) is equivalent to 6(y + 1)
6(y - 1) is equivalent to (6y - 6)
(6y + 1) is equivalent to (1 + 6y)
