Answer:

5*8+14=54

Step-by-step explanation:

5*x+14= 54

so

54-14= 40

40/5=8

so x=8

The lifetime X (in hundreds of hours) of a certain type of vacuum tube has a Weibull distribution with parameters α = 2 and β =

stich3 [128]

I'm assuming $\alpha$ is the shape parameter and $\beta$ is the scale parameter. Then the PDF is

$f_X(x)=\begin{cases}\dfrac29xe^{-x^2/9}&\text{for }x\ge0\\\\0&\text{otherwise}\end{cases}$

a. The expectation is

$E[X]=\displaystyle\int_{-\infty}^\infty xf_X(x)\,\mathrm dx=\frac29\int_0^\infty x^2e^{-x^2/9}\,\mathrm dx$

To compute this integral, recall the definition of the Gamma function,

$\Gamma(x)=\displaystyle\int_0^\infty t^{x-1}e^{-t}\,\mathrm dt$

For this particular integral, first integrate by parts, taking

$u=x\implies\mathrm du=\mathrm dx$

$\mathrm dv=xe^{-x^2/9}\,\mathrm dx\implies v=-\dfrac92e^{-x^2/9}$

$E[X]=\displaystyle-xe^{-x^2/9}\bigg|_0^\infty+\int_0^\infty e^{-x^2/9}\,\mathrm x$

$E[X]=\displaystyle\int_0^\infty e^{-x^2/9}\,\mathrm dx$

Substitute $x=3y^{1/2}$ , so that $\mathrm dx=\dfrac32y^{-1/2}\,\mathrm dy$ :

$E[X]=\displaystyle\frac32\int_0^\infty y^{-1/2}e^{-y}\,\mathrm dy$

$\boxed{E[X]=\dfrac32\Gamma\left(\dfrac12\right)=\dfrac{3\sqrt\pi}2\approx2.659}$

The variance is

$\mathrm{Var}[X]=E[(X-E[X])^2]=E[X^2-2XE[X]+E[X]^2]=E[X^2]-E[X]^2$

The second moment is

$E[X^2]=\displaystyle\int_{-\infty}^\infty x^2f_X(x)\,\mathrm dx=\frac29\int_0^\infty x^3e^{-x^2/9}\,\mathrm dx$

Integrate by parts, taking

$u=x^2\implies\mathrm du=2x\,\mathrm dx$

$\mathrm dv=xe^{-x^2/9}\,\mathrm dx\implies v=-\dfrac92e^{-x^2/9}$

$E[X^2]=\displaystyle-x^2e^{-x^2/9}\bigg|_0^\infty+2\int_0^\infty xe^{-x^2/9}\,\mathrm dx$

$E[X^2]=\displaystyle2\int_0^\infty xe^{-x^2/9}\,\mathrm dx$

Substitute $x=3y^{1/2}$ again to get

$E[X^2]=\displaystyle9\int_0^\infty e^{-y}\,\mathrm dy=9$

Then the variance is

$\mathrm{Var}[X]=9-E[X]^2$

$\boxed{\mathrm{Var}[X]=9-\dfrac94\pi\approx1.931}$

b. The probability that $X\le3$ is

$P(X\le 3)=\displaystyle\int_{-\infty}^3f_X(x)\,\mathrm dx=\frac29\int_0^3xe^{-x^2/9}\,\mathrm dx$

which can be handled with the same substitution used in part (a). We get

$\boxed{P(X\le 3)=\dfrac{e-1}e\approx0.632}$

c. Same procedure as in (b). We have

$P(1\le X\le3)=P(X\le3)-P(X\le1)$

and

$P(X\le1)=\displaystyle\int_{-\infty}^1f_X(x)\,\mathrm dx=\frac29\int_0^1xe^{-x^2/9}\,\mathrm dx=\frac{e^{1/9}-1}{e^{1/9}}$

Then

$\boxed{P(1\le X\le3)=\dfrac{e^{8/9}-1}e\approx0.527}$

A sequence is defined by the recursive formula f(n+1)=f(n)-2. If f(1)=18, what is f(5)?

N76 [4]

Answer:

$f(5)=10$

Step-by-step explanation:

A sequence is defined by the recursive formula $f(n+1)=f(n)-2$

If $f(1)=18,$ then

for $n=1: f(2)=f(1+1)=f(1)-2=18-2=16$

for $n=2: f(3)=f(2+1)=f(2)-2=16-2=14$

for $n=3: f(4)=f(3+1)=f(3)-2=14-2=12$

for $n=4: f(5)=f(4+1)=f(4)-2=12-2=10$
