Answer:

The probability is 0.4647

Step-by-step explanation:

The variable X is the life of an electric component in years.

X follows a exponential distribution, it means that the probability that the life of an electric component is less than x years is calculated as:

P(X

Where x\geq0 and \beta is the mean life of the electric component.

So, replacing x by 5 and \beta by 8, we get that the probability that a randomly selected component has a life less than 5 years is:

P(X

WILL MARK BRAINLIEST IF ITS RIGHT !!
Furkat [3]

Answer:

Around 0.22

<u>FIRST THOUGH, I FEEL LIKE 90 MIGHT HAVE MEANT TO BEEN 0.9, SO IF SO SUBSTITUTE THE 90 BELOW FOR 0.9!</u>

<u></u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay, so first.

Company A will be 50 a day plus 0.4 a mile

Company B will be 30 a day plus 90 per mile

We can write an equation like this:

50 + 0.4m = 30 + 90m

m = miles they are the same

Then we solve for m.

50 + 0.4m = 30 + 90m

     - 0.4m            - 0.4m

50 = 30 + 89.6m

- 30    - 30

20 = 89.6m

Divide both sides by 89.6

Around 0.22!

Solve the following equations x1/3=2 <br> Y-2=9<br> (2s)1/2=9<br> 2n-1=16
Nookie1986 [14]

x \times  \frac{1}{3}  = 2 \\  =  > x = 2 \times 3 \\  =  > x = 6

y - 2 = 9 \\  =  > y = 9 + 2 = 11

(2s) \frac{1}{2}  = 9 \\  =  > s = 9

2n - 1 = 16 \\  =  > 2n = 16 + 1 \\  =  > 2n = 17 \\  =  > n =  \frac{17}{2}  = 8.5

<h3>The answers are :</h3><h3>x = 6</h3><h3>y = 11</h3><h3>s = 9</h3><h3>n = 8.5</h3><h3>Hope it helps!</h3><h3 />

Simplify each radical
const2013 [10]

Answer:

AECG

Step-by-step explanation:

1

sqrt(49) = 7

sqrt(a^2) = a

sqrt(b^2) = b

For every two variables you can take one out from under the root sign and thorough the other one away.

Answer: E

2

sqrt(36) = 6

sqrt(a^2) = a  See comment for 1.

b must be left where it is. There is only 1 of them.

6asqrt(b)

Answer: A

3. sqrt(25) = 5

sqrt(b^2) = b

a must be left alone.  There's only 1 of them.

5b sqrt(a)

answer: C

4

sqrt(81 a b)

sqrt(81) = 9

The variables must be left alone. There's only1 of them

9 sqrt(ab)
