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.

ch4aika [34]
Lin : 1.5 km in 5 minutes = 1.5 / 5 = 0.3 km per minute
Andre : 2 km in 8 minutes = 2 / 8 = 0.25 km per minute

so Lin is biking faster

What is the value of m in the ecuation 1/2m -3/4n = 16, when n =8 ?
soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer: m=44

Step-by-step explanation:

1/2m-3/4n = 16

1/2m-3/4(8) = 16

1/2m-24/4 = 16

1/2m-6 = 16

1/2m = 22

m=44
