Answer:

0.7026

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X denote the lifetime of light bulb. Given X \sim Exp(\lambda) where the mean is E(X) = 340 =\frac{1}{\lambda} \implies \lambda = \frac{1}{340} = 0.00294.

Recall that,

\displaystyle P(X>x) = 1 - \int_0^x e^{-\lambda x} = 1 - (1 - e^{-\lambda x} = e^{-\lambda x}

\displaystyle P(X>220 | X>100) = \frac{P(X>220,X>100)}{P(X>100)} = \frac{e^{-\lambda \times 220}}{e^{-\lambda \times 100}} = \frac{0.5236}{0.7452} = 0.7026

Answer:

Answer choice C) 3a-3

Step-by-step explanation:

Your perimeter is of (10a-6). The first step would be multiply 2a by 2 since you have to sides. Which would give you to 4a. Next you will have to subtract 4a from (10a-6). This would give you 6a-6. Finally divide by two and you will get 3a-3.

Minimum is (5,0)

There is no maximum so maximum is N/A

Where the function is increasing is x>5

Function decreases where x<5

Fine the slope of the line that passes through (9,3) (2,2)

Just substitute it into the gradient formula which is: y2 - y1 / x2 - x1. So 2-3/2-9 = -1/-7 = 1/7
