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

Which is the approximate measure of this angle A. 30 b. 90 c 120 d 180
statuscvo [17]

Answer:

Answer is A. 30 degree

as we know that two prependicular lines have 90 degree angle between them

and similarly a horizontal line has angle zero degree.

the angle of pic shown is approximately 30 degree as it lies between prependicular and horizontal nature of lines

but as we can see that it is close to horizontal nature of the line that's why its approximate angle is 30 degree.

Please help! alg 1! I really need a explaintion fastttt
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

  1. y = -5x +10
  2. (0, 10)
  3. (1, 5)
  4. see attached

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Subtract 5x from both sides to put the equation in slope-intercept form:

  y = -5x +10

__

2. The y-intercept is the point corresponding to x=0. The y-value when x=0 is the constant in the equation: 10. Then the point is ...

  (x, y) = (0, 10)

You may notice this is one of the points listed in part 4, and is also used in question 3.

__

3. The x-value computed is 1; the y-value computed is 5. The point is ...

  (x, y) = (1, 5)

You may notice this is one of the points listed in part 4.

__
