Answer: 0.14

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Mean : \lambda=15\text{ per seconds}

In minutes , Mean : \lambda=4\text{ per minute}

The exponential distribution function with parameter \lambda  is given by :-

f(t)=\lambda e^{-\lambda t}, \text{ for }x\geq0

The probability of waiting more than 30 seconds i.e. 0.5 minutes is given by the exponential function :-

P(X\geq0.5)=1-P(X\leq0.5)\\\\=1-\int^{0.5}_{0}4e^{-4t}dt\\\\=1-[-e^{-4t}]^{0.5}_{0}\\\\=1-(1-e^{-2})=1-0.86=0.14

Hence, the probability of waiting more than 30 seconds = 0.14

Factor completely 5ax2 − 20x3 2a − 8x. (a 4x)(5x2 2) (a 4x)(5x2 − 2) (a − 4x)(5x2 2) (a − 4x)(5x2 − 2).
antiseptic1488 [7]

The complete factor of the polynomial 5ax² − 20x³ + 2a − 8x is (5x² + 2) (y − 4x). Then the correct option is C.

<h3>What is polynomial?</h3>

Polynomial is an algebraic expression that consists of variables and coefficients. Variable are called unknown. We can apply arithmetic operations such as addition, subtraction, etc. But not divisible by variable.

Factor completely 5ax² − 20x³ + 2a − 8x.

Take 5x² common from the first two terms and 2 from the last two terms. we have

5ax² − 20x³ + 2a − 8x

5x²(a − 4x) + 2 (a − 4x)

Take (a - 4) common, then we have

(5x² + 2) (y − 4x)

The complete factor of the polynomial 5ax² − 20x³ + 2a − 8x is (5x² + 2) (y − 4x). Then the correct option is C.

Option D: Two irrational solutions

Explanation:

The equation is 17+3 x^{2}=6 x

Subtracting 6x from both sides, we have,

3x^{2} -6x+17=0

Solving the equation using quadratic formula,

x=\frac{6 \pm \sqrt{36-4(3)(17)}}{2(3)}

Simplifying the expression, we get,

\begin{aligned}x &=\frac{6 \pm \sqrt{36-204}}{6} \\&=\frac{6 \pm \sqrt{-168}}{6} \\&=\frac{6 \pm 2 i \sqrt{42}}{6}\end{aligned}

Taking out the common terms and simplifying, we have,

\begin{aligned}x &=\frac{2(3 \pm i \sqrt{42})}{6} \\&=\frac{(3 \pm i \sqrt{42})}{3}\end{aligned}

Dividing by 3, we get,

x=1+i \sqrt{\frac{14}{3}}, x=1-i \sqrt{\frac{14}{3}}

Hence, the equation has two irrational solutions.
