Answer: 8 6/8
Im almost positive if im wrong please someone correct me.
The exponential distribution is:
where
The probability we want is how likely will a dvd player last more than 8 years, given it has already lasted 5 years
To find this, you use conditional probability.
where A is P(x>8) and B is P(x>5)
To find these probabilities, integrate over the distribution:
Sub into conditional probability formula:
Final Answer: Given a dvd player is more than 5 years old, the probability that it will last another 3 more years is about 54.9%
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Three-fifths of the sum of 9 and f is ==
Answer:
So the decay percentage rate is of 70.8%
Step-by-step explanation:
An exponentil function has the following format:
In which c is a constant.
If a>1, we have that a = 1 + r and r is the growth rate.
If a<1, we have that a = 1 - r and r is the decay rate.
In this problem:
a = 0.292
A is lesser than 1, so r is the decay rate.
1 - r = 0.292
r = 1 - 0.292
r = 0.708
So the decay percentage rate is of 70.8%
