(1/3) x = 12

x = 12*3 = 36

1/2 of 36 = 18 answer

If 1/3 = 12, then multiply 12 by 3 to get the number, which is 36

then split 36 in half, and you get 18.

hope this helps!

HELP WITH QUESTION! IT IS BELOW! COUSIN NEED SHLEP

Answer:

The answer is

Step-by-step explanation:

To find an equation of a line given a slope and a point we use the formula

$y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)$

where

m is the gradient

( x1 , y1) is the point

From the question

Gradient = 2

The point is ( 1 , 4)

The equation is

$y - 4 = 2(x - 1) \\ y - 4 = 2x - 2 \\ y = 2x - 2 + 4 \: \:$

We have the final answer as

$y = 2x + 2$

Hope this helps you

The lifetime, in years, of some electronic component is a continuous random variable with the density f(x) =   k x4 for x ≥ 1

yuradex [85]

I suppose the density is supposed to be

$f(x)=\begin{cases}\frac k{x^4}&\text{for }x\ge1\\0&\text{otherwise}\end{cases}$

(since $kx^4$ diverges as $x\to\infty$ , and 0 is conveniently left out of the domain)

For this to be a proper density function, it must be positive (it is) and its integral over the support $[1,\infty)$ must evaluate to 1. We have

$\displaystyle\int_{-\infty}^\infty f(x)\,\mathrm dx=\int_1^\infty\frac k{x^4}\,\mathrm dx=-\frac k{3x^3}\bigg|_1^\infty=\frac k3=1$

which means $k=3$ .

The distribution function is obtained by integrating the density:

$F(x)=\displaystyle\int_{-\infty}^xf(t)\,\mathrm dt=\begin{cases}0&\text{for }x$

The probability that the component exceeds 2 years in its lifetime is

$P(X>2)=1-P(X\le 2)=1-F(2)=1-\left(1-\dfrac18\right)=\dfrac18$
