The probability that the reaction time for this density function is at most 2.5 seconds is equal to 0.9.
<h3>What is a density function?</h3>
A density function can be defined as a type of function which is used to represent the density of a continuous random variable that lies within a specific range.
<h3>How to calculate the probability that reaction time is at most 2.5 seconds?</h3>
P(X ≤ 2.5) = Fx(2.5)
Fx(2.5) = 3/2 - 3/2(2.5)
Fx(2.5) = 3/2 - 3/5
Fx(2.5) = 0.9.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Polynomial long division is done the way any long division is done. Find a "partial quotient", subtract from the dividend the product of that partial quotient and the divisor. The result is a new dividend. Repeat until the degree of the dividend is less than that of the divisor.
__
In the attached, the "Hints" show you how the partial quotient is found, and they show you how the product of the partial quotient and divisor is found.
The partial quotient term is simply the ratio of the highest degree terms of dividend and divisor. (Unlike numerical long division, there is no guessing.)
__
The remainder is the dividend of lower degree than the divisor. As in numerical long division, the full quotient expresses the remainder over the divisor.
For example, 5 ÷ 3 = 1 r 2 = 1 + 2/3.
Your full quotient is (n+5) +1/(n-6).
You can use the definition:
Then if
we have
Then the derivative is
I'm guessing the second part of the question asks you to find the tangent line to <em>f(x)</em> at the point <em>a</em> = 0. The slope of the tangent line to this point is
and when <em>a</em> = 0, we have <em>f(a)</em> = <em>f</em> (0) = -2, so the graph of <em>f(x)</em> passes through the point (0, -2).
Use the point-slope formula to get the equation of the tangent line:
<em>y</em> - (-2) = 3 (<em>x</em> - 0)
<em>y</em> + 2 = 3<em>x</em>
<em>y</em> = 3<em>x</em> - 2
