Answer:

1. 16 cups

2. 8 pints

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are asked to calculate the amount of cups of juice made from a certain gallon and the amount left in pints after some certain amount of the juice was consumed.

To solve this problem, we need to know the amount of cups present in a gallon of juice.

Mathematically, there are 16 cups present in a gallon. Now since she made two gallons, the amount of cups present is thus 16 * 2 = 32 cups of juice

2. 16 cups was consumed by the family. The amount of cups left is thus 32 - 16 = 16 cups of juice

We need our answer in pints however.

Mathematically, 1 pint is composed of 2 cups.

This means 16 cups would be composed of 16/2 pints = 8 pints

Answer:

1. 32 cups

2. 8 pints

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The amount of cups present in a gallon of juice is

A gallon = 16 cups

Therefor 2 gallons = 16×2= 32 cups

She made 32 cups

2. A pint = 2cups

If the familiy drank 16 cups and there were 32 cups

Therfore 32-16 = 16cups

2 cups is 1 pint

So 16 cups will be 16/2 = 8

8 pints

The number of years a radio functions is exponentially distributed with parameter λ = 1 8 . If Jones buys a used radio, what is

blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

$P(X>8)=e^{-1}$

Step-by-step explanation:

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:

$P(X=x)=\lambda e^{-\lambda x}, x>0$

And 0 for other case. Let X the random variable that represent "The number of years a radio functions" and we know that the distribution is given by:

$X \sim Exp(\lambda=\frac{1}{8})$

We can assume that the random variable t represent the number of years that the radio is already here. So the interest is find this probability:

$P(X>8|X>t)$

We have an important property on the exponential distribution called "Memoryless" property and says this:

$P(X>a+t| X>t)=P(X>a)$

Where a represent a shift and t the time of interest.

On this case then $P(X>8|X>t)=P(X>8+t|X>t)=P(X>8)$

We can use the definition of the density function and find this probability:

$P(X>8)=\int_{8}^{\infty} \frac{1}{8}e^{-\frac{1}{8}x}dx$

$=\frac{1}{8} \int_{8}^{\infty} e^{-\frac{1}{8}x}dx$

$=[lim_{x\to\infty} (-e^{-\frac{1}{8}x})+e^{-1}]=0+e^{-1}=e^{-1}$

miskamm [114]

Answer:

$x = 23$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given, $\frac{x - 5}{2} = 9$ , solve for x.

Multiply both sides by 2

$\frac{x - 5}{2} \times 2 = 9 \times 2$

$x - 5 = 18$

Add x to both sides

$x - 5 + 5 = 18 + 5$

$x = 23$

What is the value of x?<br><br> x= <br> units

attashe74 [19]

By Pythagoras theorem

$RQ^{2}= x^{2} + 16^{2}$
$RS^{2}= x^{2} + 9^{2}$

$SQ^{2}= RS^{2} + RQ^{2}$
$SQ^{2}= x^{2} + 16^{2} + x^{2} + 9^{2}$
$SQ^{2}=2 x^{2} +256+81$
$25^{2}=2 x^{2} +337$
$625-337=2 x^{2}$
$288=2 x^{2}$
$144= x^{2}$
$x=12$
