Answer:

  55 gallons, the initial quantity of water in the tank

Step-by-step explanation:

Y is defined as the amount of water in the tank. When X (the number of minutes spent draining) is zero, no water has left the tank. So, the Y-intercept is the initial amount of water in the tank, 55 gallons.

The lifetime of a computer can be modeled by an exponential random variable with an expected lifetime of 900 days. 1. Find the p
weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

1.  0.108368

2. 0.188876

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X be the exponential random variable that represents the lifetime of a computer.

i.e. X\sim Exp(0.001)

The probability that the computer will function more than 2000 days can be computed as follows:

P(X > 2000)

: f_X(x) = \lambda e^{-\lambda x

P(X > 2000) = 1  - P(X< 2000)

P(X > 2000) = exp(-2000/β) = e⁻²²

P(X > 2000) = 0.108368

2.

By applying conditional probability;

P(X>2000 \bigg | X>500) =\dfrac{P(X>2000 \  \cap  \ X>500)}{P(X> 500)}

P(X>2000 \bigg | X>500) =\dfrac{P(X>2000 )}{P(X> 500)}

P(X>2000 \bigg | X>500) =\dfrac{0.108368 }{0.57375}

\mathbf{P(X>2000 \bigg | X>500) =0.188876}
