Question:
Consider the following exponential probability density function.
f(x) = 1/5e^(−x/5) for x ≥ 0
(a) Write the formula for P(x ≤ x0). (b) Find P(x ≤ 4). (Round your answer to four decimal places.) (c) Find P(x ≥ 5). (Round your answer to four decimal places.) (d) Find P(x ≤ 6). (Round your answer to four decimal places.) (e) Find P(4 ≤ x ≤ 6). (Round your answer to four decimal places.)
Answer:
(a) P(x ≤ x0) = 1 - e^(−x0/5)
(b) P(x ≤ 4) = 0.5506
(c) P(x ≥ 5) = 0.3678
(d) P(x ≤ 6) = 0.6988
(e) P(4 ≤ x ≤ 6) = 0.1482
Step-by-step explanation:
The standard form of the exponential probability density function is given by
f(x) = 1/μe^(−x/μ)
Where μ is the mean, for the given problem μ = 5
(a) Write the formula for P(x ≤ x0)
P(x ≤ x0) = 1 - e^(−x0/5)
(b) Find P(x ≤ 4)
P(x ≤ 4) = 1 - e^(−4/5)
P(x ≤ 4) = 1 - 0.4493
P(x ≤ 4) = 0.5506
(c) Find P(x ≥ 5)
P(x ≥ 5) = e^(−5/5)
P(x ≥ 5) = 0.3678
(d) Find P(x ≤ 6)
P(x ≤ 6) = 1 - e^(−6/5)
P(x ≤ 6) = 1 - 0.3011
P(x ≤ 6) = 0.6988
(e) Find P(4 ≤ x ≤ 6)
P(4 ≤ x ≤ 6) = e^(−4/5) - e^(−6/5)
P(4 ≤ x ≤ 6) = 0.4493 - 0.3011
P(4 ≤ x ≤ 6) = 0.1482
Answer:
A. 1 cup of chocolate chips
B. 1/4 cup of granulated sugar
C. 1 and 5/8 cups of all purpose flour
Step-by-step explanation:
Divide all by 2
Answer:
x = 
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that y varies directly with x then the equation relating them is
y = kx ← k is the constant of variation
To find k use the condition y = - 6 when x = 2, then
- 6 = 2k ( divide both sides by 2 )
- 3 = k
y = - 3x ← equation of variation
When y = - 22, then
- 22 = - 3x ( divide both sides by - 3 )
x = 
=
Answer:
$3027.80
Explanation:
The compound interest formula is the following.
where
A = final amount
P = principle amount
r = interest rate / 100
n = number of compounds per interval
t = time interval
Now in our case,
A = unknown
P = $1900
r = 10.4/100
n = 12 months / year ( because the interest is compounded monthly)
t = 4.5 yrs
Therefore, the compound interest formula gives
Using a calculator, we evaluate the above to get
which is our answer!
60 inches because 1 week can equal 12 inches because 24 divided by 2 is 12
