At this market,6 batteries cost 10.38 how much do 8 batteries cost

1 answer:

7 0

To find the cost of one, divide 10.38 by 6, so
10.38/6 = 1.73
1.73 = price per battery
To find the price of 8, multiply the cost of price per battery with however many items you need, in this case 8 so,
1.73 x 8 = 13.84

Suppose that the distance, in miles, that people are willing to commute to work is an exponential random variable with a decay p

Answer:

m = $\frac{1}{20}$
μ = 20
σ = 20

The probability that a person is willing to commute more than 25 miles is 0.2865.

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponential probability distribution is used to define the probability distribution of the amount of time until some specific event takes place.

A random variable X follows an exponential distribution with parameter m.

The decay parameter is, m.

The probability distribution function of an Exponential distribution is:

$f(x)=me^{-mx}\ ;\ m>0, x>0$

Given: The decay parameter is, $\frac{1}{20}$

X is defined as the distance people are willing to commute in miles.

The decay parameter is m = $\frac{1}{20}$ .
The mean of the distribution is: $\mu=\frac{1}{m}=\frac{1}{\frac{1}{20}}=20$ .
The standard deviation is: $\sigma=\sqrt{variance}= \sqrt{\frac{1}{(m)^{2}} } =\frac{1}{m} =\frac{1}{\frac{1}{20}} =20$

Compute the probability that a person is willing to commute more than 25 miles as follows:

$P(X>25)=\int\limits^{\infty}_{25} {\frac{1}{20} e^{-\frac{1}{20}x}} \, dx \\=\frac{1}{20}|20e^{-\frac{1}{20}x}|^{\infty}_{25}\\=|e^{-\frac{1}{20}x}|^{\infty}_{25}\\=e^{-\frac{1}{20}\times25}\\=0.2865$
