Answer:
The refrigerator was at around 13 ∘C
Step-by-step explanation:
Newton's Law of Cooling:
The rate of change of a body temperature (amount of heat loss/time of loss) is directly proportional to the difference between its own temperature and the surroundings.
T ⇒ temperature
t ⇒ time
Tenv ⇒refrigerator temperature
⇒ rate of change of he temperature
-h ⇒ constant of proportionality (negative because the temperature is decreasing inside the refrigerator)
We have 3 points:
time (minutes) - Temperature (∘ C)
0 (when the pan was put in the refrigerator) - 46
15 (after 15 minutes) - 27
30 (15 minutes after the first 15 minutes) - 19
= -h (27 - Tenv)
= -h (19 - Tenv)
Now we have a system of two equations and two variables
The refrigerator was at around 13 ∘C
Answer:
a) 0.96
b) 0.016
c) 0.018
d) 0.982
e) x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given with the Probability density function f(x)= 2/x^3 where x > 1.
<em>Firstly we will calculate the general probability that of P(a < X < b) </em>
P(a < X < b) = =
= { Because
}
= =
= =
a) Now P(X < 5) = P(1 < X < 5) {because x > 1 }
Comparing with general probability we get,
P(1 < X < 5) = =
= 0.96 .
b) P(X > 8) = P(8 < X < ∞) = 1/ - 1/∞ = 1/64 - 0 = 0.016
c) P(6 < X < 10) = =
= 0.018 .
d) P(x < 6 or X > 10) = P(1 < X < 6) + P(10 < X < ∞)
= + (1/
- 1/∞) = 1 - 1/36 + 1/100 + 0 = 0.982
e) We have to find x such that P(X < x) = 0.75 ;
⇒ P(1 < X < x) = 0.75
⇒ = 0.75
⇒ = 1 - 0.75 = 0.25
⇒ =
⇒
= 4 ⇒ x =
Therefore, value of x such that P(X < x) = 0.75 is 2.
