Hello!

You have to change 0.25 to a fraction.

0.25 = $\frac{25}{100}$

$\frac{25}{100} = \frac{1}{4}$

That equals: $c + \frac{1}{4} c$

Answer ⇒ $c + \frac{1}{4} c$

Suppose the average tread-life of a certain brand of tire is 42,000 miles and that this mileage follows the exponential probabil

Ahat [919]

Answer: The probability that a randomly selected tire will have a tread-life of less than 65,000 miles is 0.7872 .

Step-by-step explanation:

The cumulative distribution function for exponential distribution is :-

$P(X\leq x)=1-e^{\frac{-x}{\lambda}}$ , where $\lambda$ is the mean of the distribution.

As per given , we have

Average tread-life of a certain brand of tire : $\lambda=\text{42,000 miles }$

Now , the probability that a randomly selected tire will have a tread-life of less than 65,000 miles will be :

$P(X\leq 65000)=1-e^{\frac{-65000}{42000}}\\\\=1-e^{-1.54761}\\\\=1-0.212755853158\\\\=0.787244146842\approx0.7872$

Hence , the probability that a randomly selected tire will have a tread-life of less than 65,000 miles is 0.7872 .

Suppose the correlation coeffecient

Usimov [2.4K]

A relatively large correlation coefficient, such as the 0.87 given here, indicates a direct proportion relationship between two variables. Here, as baby gains weight, smart phone pricing increases. Note that this is NOT a causal relationship.

Jasper's lawn is 3/4 of an acre in size. The fertilizer bag states that 5 1/2 bags are required for 1 acre. How many bags does J

Nady [450]

Answer: $4\dfrac{1}{8}\ \text{bags}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Jasper lawn is three-fourth of an acre

1 acre of land requires $5\frac{1}{2}$ bags

convert mixed numeral to fraction

$\Rightarrow 5\dfrac{1}{2}=\dfrac{11}{2}$

$\therefore 1\ \text{acre}\equiv\dfrac{11}{2}\ \text{bags}\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{3}{4}\ \text{acre}\equiv \dfrac{11}{2}\times \dfrac{3}{4}=\dfrac{33}{8}\ \text{bags}$
