Answer:
a) 0.0025
b) 0.9975
c) 23.03 minutes
d) 23.03 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
Let X be the random variable that measures the time waited for a taxi.
If X is exponentially distributed with a mean of 10 minutes,then the probability that you have to wait more than t minutes is
a)
1 hour = 60 minutes, so the probability that you wait longer than one hour is
b)
Due to the “memorylessness” of the exponential distribution, the probability that you have to wait 10 or less minutes after you have already waited for one hour, is the same as the probability that you have to wait 10 or less minutes
c)
We want x so that
P(X>x)=0.1
d)
We want P(X<x)=0.9
Answer:
2x-8
Step-by-step explanation:
The word "from" tells you that the first part of the sentence should be at the back of the equation because you're taking from the product of 2 times a number, the number is unknown so it is known as "x."

Answer:
Tn = 64-4n
Step-by-step explanation:
The nth term of an AP is expressed as:
Tn = a+(n-1)d
a is the common difference
n is the number of terms
d is the common difference
Given the 6th term a6 = 40
T6 = a+(6-1)d
T6 = a+5d
40 = a+5d ... (1)
Given the 20th term a20 = -16
T20 = a+(20-1)d
T20 = a+19d
-16 = a+19d... (2)
Solving both equation simultaneously
40 = a+5d
-16 = a+19d
Subtracting both equation
40-(-16) = 5d-19d
56 = -14d
d = 56/-14
d = -4
Substituting d = -4 into equation
a+5d = 40
a+5(-4) = 40
a-20 = 40
a = 20+40
a = 60
Given a = 60, d = -4, to get the nth term of the sequence:
Tn = a+(n-1)d
Tn = 60+(n-1)(-4)
Tn = 60+(-4n+4)
Tn = 60-4n+4
Tn = 64-4n
