X + y = 56 ------------------(1)
x:y = 5:3
x/y = 5/3
3 x = 5 y
so, x = (5/3)y---------------(2)
sub (2) in (1)
x + y = 56
(5/3)y + y = 56
5 y + 3 y = 168
  8 y  = 168
  y  =  168 / 8  = 21
x = (5/3) x 21
  =  35
the value of x - y = 35 - 21
                          = 14

suppose that the lifetime of a transistor is a gamma random variable x with mean of 24 weeks and standard deviation of 12 weeks.
emmainna [20.7K]

The probability that the transistor will last between 12 and 24 weeks is 0.424

X= lifetime of the transistor in weeks E(X)= 24 weeks

O,= 12 weeks

The anticipated value, variance, and distribution of the random variable X were all provided to us. Finding the parameters alpha and beta is necessary before we can discover the solutions to the difficulties.

X~gamma(\alpha ,\beta)

E(X)= \alpha \beta                 \beta= 12^{2}/24=6 weeks

V(x)= \alpha \beta ^{2}                \alpha=24/6= 4

Now we can find the solutions:

The excel formula used to create Figure one is as follows:

=gammadist(X, \alpha, \beta, False)

P(12\leq X\leq 24)

P(12/6\leq G\leq 24/6)

P(2\leq G\leq 4)

P= 0.424

Therefore, probability that the transistor will last between 12 and 24 weeks is 0.424

Find the sum of all positive integers less than 100, which:
wlad13 [49]

Answer:

The sum of all positive integers less than 100, which are not divisible by 3 is 3267.

Step-by-step explanation:

The all positive integers less than 100 has sum, given by

S₁ = 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + ......... + 99

⇒ S₁ = \frac{99 \times (99 + 1)}{2} = 4950

Now, the sum of all positive integers less than 100 which are divisible by 3 is

S₂ = 3 + 6 + 9 + 12 + 15 + ........ + 99

⇒ S₂ = 3(1 + 2 + 3 + ........ + 33)

⇒ S₂ = 3 \times \frac{33 \times (33 + 1)}{2} = 1683

Therefore, the sum of all positive integers less than 100, which are not divisible by 3 is = S₁ - S₂ = 4950 - 1683 = 3267. (Answer)

Note : The sum of n natural numbers S is given by

S = 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + ....... + n = \frac{n \times (n + 1)}{2} .
