Answer:

x = 2 + √3 and

x = 2 - √3

Step-by-step explanation:

Please use " ^ " to denote exponentiation: x^2 - 4x + 1 = 0.

Here you have multiple choices of methods of solution:

quadratic formula, completing the square, graphing, and so on.

If we complete the square, then: x^2 - 4x + 1 = 0 becomes

x^2 - 4x + 4 - 4 + 1 = 0, or

(x - 2)^2 = 3

Taking the square root of both sides, we get x - 2 = ±√3, so that the roots are:

x = 2 + √3 and

x = 2 - √3

The lifetime of two light bulbs are modeled as independent and exponential random variables X and Y, with parameters lambda and

Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

$\bf h(x)=max(\lambda,\mu) e^{-max(\lambda,\mu) x}\;(x\geq0)$

Step-by-step explanation:

The PDF of X is

$\bf f(x)=\lambda e^{-\lambda x}\;(x\geq0)$

The PDF of Y is

$\bf g(x)=\mu e^{-\mu x}\;(x\geq0)$

The means of X and Y are respectively,

$\bf \displaystyle\frac{1}{\lambda}\;,\displaystyle\frac{1}{\mu}$

so we can see that the larger the parameter, the smaller the mean. Hence the PDF of Z = min(X, Y) is an exponential with the largest parameter of the two.

Therefore, the PDF of Z is

$\bf h(x)=max(\lambda,\mu) e^{-max(\lambda,\mu) x}\;(x\geq0)$

Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

The probability is 2/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to calculate the probability that the first person will sit in a yellow roller coaster car

The number of cars to select from is 6 + 9 = 15 cars

The number of yellow cars is 6

So the probability that the first person selects a yellow roller coaster car to seat is 6/15 = 2/5
