f) The life of a power transmission tower is exponentially distributed, with mean life 25 years. If three towers, operated indep

Step2247 [10]

Answer:

15.24% probability that at least 2 will still stand after 35 years

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the binomial distribution and the exponential distribution.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

In which $C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

And p is the probability of X happening.

Exponential distribution:

The exponential probability distribution, with mean m, is described by the following equation:

$f(x) = \mu e^{-\mu x}$

In which $\mu = \frac{1}{m}$ is the decay parameter.

The probability that x is lower or equal to a is given by:

$P(X \leq x) = \int\limits^a_0 {f(x)} \, dx$

Which has the following solution:

$P(X \leq x) = 1 - e^{-\mu x}$

The probability of finding a value higher than x is:

$P(X > x) = 1 - P(X \leq x) = 1 - (1 - e^{-\mu x}) = e^{-\mu x}$

Probability of a single tower being standing after 35 years:

Single tower, so exponential.

Mean of 25 years, so $m = 25, \mu = \frac{1}{25} = 0.04$

We have to find $P(X > 35)$

$P(X > 35) = 1 - P(X \leq x) = 1 - (1 - e^{-\mu x}) = e^{-0.04*35} = 0.2466$

What is the probability that at least 2 will still stand after 35 years?

Now binomial.

Each tower has a 0.2466 probability of being standing after 35 years, so $p = 0.2466$

3 towers, so $n = 3$

We have to find:

$P(X \geq 2) = P(X = 2) + P(X = 3)$

In which

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 2) = C_{3,2}.(0.2466)^{2}.(0.7534)^{1} = 0.1374$

$P(X = 3) = C_{3,3}.(0.2466)^{3}.(0.7534)^{0} = 0.0150$

$P(X \geq 2) = P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) = 0.1374 + 0.0150 = 0.1524$

15.24% probability that at least 2 will still stand after 35 years

The Perimeter Of A Rectanglular Garden Is 84 Feet . The Length Of The Garden Is Twice The Width . What Is The Width Of The Garde

nalin [4]

$\bf \stackrel{\textit{perimeter of a rectangle}}{P=2L+2W\implies 2(L+W)}~~
\begin{cases}
L=length\\
W=width\\
--------\\
P=84\\
L=\stackrel{\textit{twice the width}}{2W}
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
84=2(L+W)\implies \cfrac{84}{2}=L+W\implies 42=L+W
\\\\\\
42=(2W)+W\implies 42=3W\implies \cfrac{42}{3}=W\implies 14=W$

Earth is approximately 9.3 × 107 miles from the sun. Saturn is approximately 8.87 × 108 miles from the sun. About how much farth

Nastasia [14]

Answer:

Both distances are in the scientific notation:

Earth - Sun = 9.3 * 10^7 miles

Saturn - Sun = 8.87 * 10^8 miles

8.87 * 10^8 - 9.3 * 10^7 =

= 88.7 *10^7 - 9.3 * 10^7 =

= 79.4 * 10^7 = 7.94 * 10 ^8 = 794,000,000 miles

Answer: Saturn is 7.94 * 10^8 miles farther from Sun than Earth is.

Step-by-step explanation:

I hope this helps you :)

koda Buys 0.75 kg of cortos,which ia 5times the mas of the union he also Buys. How much does the union weigh?

kari74 [83]

Answer:

0.15kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

We are told that

0.75 kg of cortos weights 5times the mas of the onion

We want to find the mass of 1 onion

Hence

0.75 kgcortos = 5 onions

x cortos = 1 onions

x= 0.75/5

x= 0.15kg

Hence 1 onion will weigh 0.15kg
