Answer:

The probability that more than 30 minutes will elapse before the next fraudulent corporate tax return is discovered=0.1353

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

\beta=15

We have to find the probability that more that 30 minutes  will elapse before the next fraudulent corporate tax return is discovered.

Using exponential distribution

P(X> x)=e^{-\frac{x}{\beta}}

The probability that more than 30 minutes will elapse before the next fraudulent corporate tax return is discovered

=P(x>30)=e^{-\frac{30}{15}}

The probability that more than 30 minutes will elapse before the next fraudulent corporate tax return is discovered

P(x>30)=0.1353

Hence, the probability that more than 30 minutes will elapse before the next fraudulent corporate tax return is discovered=0.1353

skad [1K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Domain is the x values.  The interval of x-values that the function encompasses are from 0 inclusive to 7 exclusive.  In interval notation that is [0, 7).  The range is the y values.  The interval of y-values that the function encompasses are from what looks like -2 to 4.  In interval notation that is [-2, 4].  The domain goes from the lowest x-value to the highest; the range goes from the lowest y-value to the highest.
