Answer:

The correct answer is "0.300993e^{-0.300993x}".

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the question,

⇒ P(x>4)=0.3

We know that,

⇒ P(X > x) = e^{(-\lambda\times x)}

⇒     e^{(-\lambda\times 4)} = 0.3

∵ \lambda = 0.300993

Now,

⇒ f(x) = \lambda e^{-\lambda x}

By putting the value, we get

           =0.300993e^{-0.300993x}
