In the equation minus m over 20 +4=7 what is first step to solve

1 answer:

7 0

Simple....

we have:

$\frac{-m}{20}$ +4=7

We must first isolate what we want to find...or m......

So...we must..

$\frac{-m}{20} +4=7$
-4 -4

Leaving you with...

$\frac{-m}{20} =3$

Thus, your answer isolate the variable. (Subtract 4 from both sides.)

Solve the equation 14y+82=6x-20 for x if y is 25

Leni [432]

Answer:

x= 226/3 or 75.33333333333333333333333333333

Step-by-step explanation:

14y+82=6x-20

y=25

Sub y=25 into 14y+82=6x-20

14y+82=6x-20

14(25)+82=6x-20

Calculate as follows:

14(25)+82=6x-20

350+82=6x-20

432=6x-20

Add twenty to both sides:

432+20=6x-20+20

452=6x-0

452=6x

Divide both sides by 6

452=6x

452/6=6x/6

452/6=x

x= 226/3 or 75.33333333333333333333333333333

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.
