Answer:

0.865

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for the probability we would be using the formula:

F(x) = 1 - e^−λx

Therefore, P(x > 2000) = F(x) = 1 - e^−λx

Mean = 1000 hours

λ = 1/mean = 1/1000 hours

x= 2000 hours

F(x) = 1 - e^−(1/1000)2000

F(x) = 1 - e^−2

= 0.8646647168

Therefore, the probability the the circuit will last at least 2000 hours = 0.865

Determine if the following statement is true or false.
Alla [95]

Answer:

A. True

Step-by-step explanation:

The general formula for predicting an outcome in a binomial probability distribution function is: nCx(p)^x(q)^(n-x)

where p is the probability of success and q is the probability of failure

From the above formula; nCx represent the number of ways of obtaining x successes in n trials.

nCx is a combination computation and combination helps to determine in how many ways a certain outcome is possible.

Solve the following system using elimination:
{-2 x + 2 y + 3 z = 0 | (equation 1)
{-2 x - y + z = -3 | (equation 2)
{2 x + 3 y + 3 z = 5 | (equation 3)

Subtract equation 1 from equation 2:
{-(2 x) + 2 y + 3 z = 0 | (equation 1)
{0 x - 3 y - 2 z = -3 | (equation 2)
{2 x + 3 y + 3 z = 5 | (equation 3)

Multiply equation 2 by -1:
{-(2 x) + 2 y + 3 z = 0 | (equation 1)
{0 x+3 y + 2 z = 3 | (equation 2)
{2 x + 3 y + 3 z = 5 | (equation 3)

Add equation 1 to equation 3:
{-(2 x) + 2 y + 3 z = 0 | (equation 1)
{0 x+3 y + 2 z = 3 | (equation 2)
{0 x+5 y + 6 z = 5 | (equation 3)

Swap equation 2 with equation 3:
{-(2 x) + 2 y + 3 z = 0 | (equation 1)
{0 x+5 y + 6 z = 5 | (equation 2)
{0 x+3 y + 2 z = 3 | (equation 3)

Subtract 3/5 × (equation 2) from equation 3:
{-(2 x) + 2 y + 3 z = 0 | (equation 1)
{0 x+5 y + 6 z = 5 | (equation 2)
{0 x+0 y - (8 z)/5 = 0 | (equation 3)

Multiply equation 3 by 5/8:
{-(2 x) + 2 y + 3 z = 0 | (equation 1)
{0 x+5 y + 6 z = 5 | (equation 2)
{0 x+0 y - z = 0 | (equation 3)

Multiply equation 3 by -1:
{-(2 x) + 2 y + 3 z = 0 | (equation 1)
{0 x+5 y + 6 z = 5 | (equation 2)
{0 x+0 y+z = 0 | (equation 3)

Subtract 6 × (equation 3) from equation 2:
{-(2 x) + 2 y + 3 z = 0 | (equation 1)
{0 x+5 y+0 z = 5 | (equation 2)
{0 x+0 y+z = 0 | (equation 3)


Divide equation 2 by 5:
{-(2 x) + 2 y + 3 z = 0 | (equation 1)
{0 x+y+0 z = 1 | (equation 2)
{0 x+0 y+z = 0 | (equation 3)

Subtract 2 × (equation 2) from equation 1:
{-(2 x) + 0 y+3 z = -2 | (equation 1)
{0 x+y+0 z = 1 | (equation 2)
v0 x+0 y+z = 0 | (equation 3)


Subtract 3 × (equation 3) from equation 1:
{-(2 x)+0 y+0 z = -2 | (equation 1)
{0 x+y+0 z = 1 | (equation 2)
{0 x+0 y+z = 0 | (equation 3)

Divide equation 1 by -2:
{x+0 y+0 z = 1 | (equation 1)
{0 x+y+0 z = 1 | (equation 2)
{0 x+0 y+z = 0 | (equation 3)

Collect results:

Answer: {x = 1, y = 1, z = 0

Express the recurring decimal 0.042 as a fraction in its simplest form.
rodikova [14]

Answer:

7/165

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a mixed recurring decimal (the zero is not repeating)

We take number after the decimal point     042

then we subtract  the non repeating.In this case is 0 so we not subtract anything

This will be the numerator  42

Now ,the denominator:

For each repeating decimal we write a 9 (in this case 2 nines)

For each non repeating decimal we write a zero

Denominator is 990

42/990  =  7/165

7:165 = 0.0424242......
