The random variable X is exponentially distributed, where X represents the time it takes for a person to choose a birthday gift.

If X has an average value of 25 minutes, what is the probability that X is less than 28 minutes? (Do not round until the final step. Round your answer to 3 decimal places.)

Answer:

0.674

Step-by-step explanation:

If the random variable X is exponentially distributed and X has an average value of 25 minutes, then its probability density function (PDF) is

\bf f(x)=\frac{1}{25}e^{-x/25}\;(x\geq 0)

and its cumulative distribution function (CDF) is

\bf P(X\leq t)=\int_{0}^{t} f(x)dx=1-e^{-t/25}

So, <em>the probability that X is less than 28 minutes is </em>

\bf P(X\leq 28)=1-e^{-28/25}=1-e^{-1.12}=0.674

LiRa [457]

Answer:

L = 4.103

Step-by-step explanation:

we have length of curve

L = \int\limits^b_a {\sqrt{(f'(x))²+1} } \, dx

where f(x) = d/dx(3*in(x)) = 3/x

substituting for f(x), we have L = \int\limits^5_2 {\sqrt{(3/x)²+1} } \, dx

(since the limit is 2≤ x ≤5)

solving,  L = \int\limits^5_2 {\sqrt{9/x²+1} } \, dx

Simplifying this integral, we have

L = 4.10321

Some friends of yours collected books for a book drive. They collected 64 Fiction, and 48 Non-Fiction books. They asked you to m
Cloud [144]

As all of the bundles have the same content inside, so assuming that there is x number of Fiction books and y number of Non-fiction books in each bundle.

Let n be the total number of bundles that my team can send.

There are 64 Fiction books, so

nx=64 ...(i)

Or x=64/n ...(ii)

also, there are 48 Non-Fiction books, so

ny=48 ...(iii)

Or y=48/n ...(iv)

Observing that the numbers x, y, and n are counting numbers and from equations (i) and (iii), n is the common factor of 64 and 48.

The possible common factors of 64 and 48 are,

n=1,2,4,8, and 16.

So, my team can send 1,2,3,4,8 or 16 bundles of books.

Now, from equations (ii) and (iv),

For n=1:

x=64/1=64

y=48/1=48

So, for 1 bundle the number of Fiction and Non-fictions books are 64 and 48 respectively.

For n=2:

x=64/2=32

y=48/2=48

So, for 2 bundles, the number of Fiction and Non-fictions books are 32 and 24 respectively.

For n=4:

x=64/4=16

y=48/4=12

So, for 4 bundles, the number of Fiction and Non-fictions books are 16 and 12 respectively.

For n=8:

x=64/8=8

y=48/8=6

So, for 8 bundles, the number of Fiction and Non-fictions books are 8 and 6 respectively.

For n=16:

x=64/16=4

y=48/16=3

So, for 16 bundles, the number of Fiction and Non-fictions books are 4 and 3 respectively.
