The length of time Y necessary to complete a key operation in the construction of houses has an exponential distribution with me

an 18 hours. The formula C = 100 + 60Y + 3Y2 relates the cost C of completing this operation to the square of the time to completion. The mean of C was found to be found to be 3,124 hours and the variance of C was found to be 28,460,160. How many standard deviations above the mean is 4,000 hours? (Round your answer to two decimal places.)

Answer:

0.16

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the length of time Y necessary to complete a key operation in the construction of houses has an exponential distribution with mean 18 hours.

The formula for cost of completing this operation is

C = 100 + 60Y + 3Y^2

C has mean 3124

Var(C) = 28,460,160

Std dev (C) = \sqrt{28460160} \\=5334.81

X = 4000 hours

Difference = 4000-3124 = 876

Mean diff/std dev = \frac{876}{5334.81} \\=0.164

i.e.nearly 0.16  standard deviations above the mean is 4,000 hours

What is the primary difference between exponential and linear functions?
Yanka [14]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the growth of a linear function will always be constant. So, that eliminates B and C.

A quadratic function can be a function such as x^2, or 5x^2+7x, etc.

An exponential function wouldn't be x^2, it would be 2^x! Or 3^x, or (1.738283)^x, etc. Therefore, D is eliminated.

So, the answer is \boxed{A} and we're done!
