Answer:

0.606531 = 60.6531% probability that it will take between 2 and 132 minutes for the student to arrive at the library parking lot.

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponential distribution:

The exponential probability distribution, with mean m, is described by the following equation:

f(x) = \mu e^{-\mu x}

In which \mu = \frac{1}{m} is the decay parameter.

The probability that x is lower or equal to a is given by:

P(X \leq x) = \int\limits^a_0 {f(x)} \, dx

Which has the following solution:

P(X \leq x) = 1 - e^{-\mu x}

The probability of finding a value higher than x is:

P(X > x) = 1 - P(X \leq x) = 1 - (1 - e^{-\mu x}) = e^{-\mu x}

Mean of 4 minutes

This means that m = 4, \mu = \frac{1}{4} = 0.25

Find the probability that it will take between 2 and 132 minutes for the student to arrive at the library parking lot:

This is:

P(2 \leq X \leq 132) = P(X \leq 132) - P(X \leq 2)

In which

P(X \leq 132) = 1 - e^{-0.25*132} = 1

P(X \leq 2) = 1 - e^{-0.25*2} = 0.393469

P(2 \leq X \leq 132) = P(X \leq 132) - P(X \leq 2) = 1 - 0.393469 = 0.606531

0.606531 = 60.6531% probability that it will take between 2 and 132 minutes for the student to arrive at the library parking lot.

How do you find the equations of the vertical and horizontal asymptotes for a graph when you only have the graph and no function
-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

See below for answer and explanations (as well as an attached graph)

Step-by-step explanation:

Pay attention to the behavior of the asymptotes. If the asymptotes are approaching a certain x-value or y-value, then that value is undefined for the function.

Take for example y=\frac{1}{x}:

  • As x approaches ∞ and -∞, then y approaches 0, which is our horizontal asymptote
  • As y approaches ∞ and -∞, then x approaches 0, which is our vertical asymptote

See the graph for a visual.
