Answer: the probability that the tires will fail within three years of the date of purchase is 0.12
Step-by-step explanation:
The average lifetime of a set of tires is 3.4 years. It means that μ = 3.4
Decay parameter, m = 1/3.4 = 0.294
The probability density function is
f(x) = me^-mx
Where x is a continuous random variable representing the time interval of interest(the reliability period that we are testing)
Since x = 3 years,
Therefore, the probability that the tires will fail within three years of the date of purchase is
f(3) = 0.294e^-(0.294 × 3)
f(3) = 0.294e^- 0.882
f(3) = 0.12
Answer:
1356 cm²
Step-by-step explanation:
Each dimension gets multiplied by 2, so the new dimensions are
changed from 2x8x7 to 6x24x21
There are 6 faces to the prism,
The area of the front and back are 6x21 = 126. There are 2 of them for a total area of 126x2 = 252 cm²
The are of the left and right sides are 24x21 = 504. There are 2 of them for a total area of 504x2 = 1008 cm²
The area of the top and bottom are 6x24 = 144, there are 2 of them for a total area of 144x2 = 288 cm²
The total surface area is 252 + 1008 + 96 = 1356 cm²
Ans: x=1.590667 or x= -1.257334
X = total sales
y = sharon's commision earnings
Since Sharon makes 4% of the total sales, we want to calculate how many sales equate to a $150 return. Since 4% = .04, the solution would be :
y = .04 x
150 = .04 x
150/.04 = x
3750 = x
