\dfrac{x^4-2x^3+x^2+3x-2}{x^2-2x+1}

The degree of the numerator exceeds the degree of the denominator, so first you have to divide:

x^2+\dfrac{3x-2}{x^2-2x+1}

Now, x^2-2x+1=(x-1)^2, so the remainder term can be expanded to get

\boxed{x^2+\dfrac a{x-1}+\dfrac b{(x-1)^2}}

An article suggests that a poisson process can be used to represent the occurrence of structural loads over time. suppose the me
kirill115 [55]

Answer:

a) \lambda_1 = 2*2 = 4

And let X our random variable who represent the "occurrence of structural loads over time" we know that:

X(2) \sim Poi (4)

And the expected value is E(X) = \lambda =4

So we expect 4 number of loads in the 2 year period.

b) P(X(2) >6) = 1-P(X(2)\leq 6)= 1-[P(X(2) =0)+P(X(2) =1)+P(X(2) =2)+...+P(X(2) =6)]

P(X(2) >6) = 1- [e^{-4}+ \frac{e^{-4}4^1}{1!}+ \frac{e^{-4}4^2}{2!} +\frac{e^{-4}4^3}{3!} +\frac{e^{-4}4^4}{4!}+\frac{e^{-4}4^5}{5!}+\frac{e^{-4}4^6}{6!}]

And we got: P(X(2) >6) =1-0.889=0.111

c)  e^{-2t} \leq 2

We can apply natural log in both sides and we got:

-2t \leq ln(0.2)

If we multiply by -1 both sides of the inequality we have:

2t \geq -ln(0.2)

And if we divide both sides by 2 we got:

t \geq \frac{-ln(0.2)}{2}

t \geq 0.8047

And then we can conclude that the time period with any load would be 0.8047 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

The exponential distribution is "the probability distribution of the time between events in a Poisson process (a process in which events occur continuously and independently at a constant average rate). It is a particular case of the gamma distribution". The probability density function is given by:

P(X=x)=\lambda e^{-\lambda x}

The exponential distribution is "the probability distribution of the time between events in a Poisson process (a process in which events occur continuously and independently at a constant average rate). It is a particular case of the gamma distribution"

Solution to the problem

Let X our random variable who represent the "occurrence of structural loads over time"

For this case we have the value for the mean given \mu = 0.5 and we can solve for the parameter \lambda like this:

\frac{1}{\lambda} = 0.5

\lambda =2

So then X(t) \sim Poi (\lambda t)

X follows a Poisson process

Part a

For this case since we are interested in the number of loads in a 2 year period the new rate would be given by:

\lambda_1 = 2*2 = 4

And let X our random variable who represent the "occurrence of structural loads over time" we know that:

X(2) \sim Poi (4)

And the expected value is E(X) = \lambda =4

So we expect 4 number of loads in the 2 year period.

Part b

For this case we want the following probability:

P(X(2) >6)

And we can use the complement rule like this

P(X(2) >6) = 1-P(X(2)\leq 6)= 1-[P(X(2) =0)+P(X(2) =1)+P(X(2) =2)+...+P(X(2) =6)]

And we can solve this like this using the masss function:

P(X(2) >6) = 1- [e^{-4}+ \frac{e^{-4}4^1}{1!}+ \frac{e^{-4}4^2}{2!} +\frac{e^{-4}4^3}{3!} +\frac{e^{-4}4^4}{4!}+\frac{e^{-4}4^5}{5!}+\frac{e^{-4}4^6}{6!}]

And we got: P(X(2) >6) =1-0.889=0.111

Part c

For this case we know that the arrival time follows an exponential distribution and let T the random variable:

T \sim Exp(\lambda=2)

The probability of no arrival during a period of duration t is given by:

f(T) = e^{-\lambda t}

And we want to find a value of t who satisfy this:

e^{-2t} \leq 2

We can apply natural log in both sides and we got:

-2t \leq ln(0.2)

If we multiply by -1 both sides of the inequality we have:

2t \geq -ln(0.2)

And if we divide both sides by 2 we got:

t \geq \frac{-ln(0.2)}{2}

t \geq 0.8047

And then we can conclude that the time period with any load would be 0.8047 years.

It would mean a lot.
LUCKY_DIMON [66]
First, subtract y2 - y1 to find the vertical distance. Then, subtract x2 - x1 to find the horizontal distance.

Formula to find distance given two points.

Square root (X2 - X1)^2 + (Y2 - Y1)^2

Xa Ya Xb Yb
A = (3, -4) B = (-1, 3)

Xa goes into X2 and Xb goes into X1

(3 - (-1))^2

Ya goes into Y2 and Yb goes into Y1

(-4 - 3)^2

Square root (3 - (-1))^2 + (-4 - 3)^2

Square root (4)^2 + (-7)^2

Square root 16 + 49

Square root 65

= 8.06

The error was Drako had (3 - 4)^2 when it should have been (3 - (-4))^2 because a positive is subtracting a negative.

If x + 3y = 7 and x - 3y =7 , then find y<br><br> Please help me
telo118 [61]

Answer:

x + 3y = 7 , x - 3y = 7 : y = , x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}x + 3y = 7\\x - 3y = 7\end{array}\right]

Isolate x for x + 3y = 7 : x = 7 - 3y:

Substitute x = 7 - 3y:

\begin{bmatrix}7-3y-3y=7\end{bmatrix}

Isolate y for 7 - 3y - 3y = 7 : y = 0:

For x =7-3y

Substitute y = 0

x=7-3 * 0

7 - 3 * 0 = 7

x = 7

The solution to the system of equations are:

y=0,\:x=7

Hope I helped. If so, may I get brainliest and a thanks?

Thank you. Have a good day! =)

Help with number 7!! You don’t have to do it but how do you do the problem??
musickatia [10]
80 * 5/8 will give you how many are thoroughbreds. 

80 * 5/8 = 50

Now subtract this from all of the horses. 

80 - 50 = 30. 

There are 30 quarter horses. 

OR If 5/8 of the horses are thoroughbreds, then 3/8 are quarter horses.

80 * 3/8 = 30.
