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.

Please i really need help with this
iris [78.8K]

Answer:

y = 2x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to find out the original equation. On this graph, we can see that the original y-intercept is -1. We can also figure out the slope by counting how many units up on the graph the higher point is from the lower point, in this case, 4, and how many units right it is, in this case, 2, so our slope is 4/2, which can be simplified to 2/1, or a slope of 2. Using the slope and y-intercept, we can create the equation for the original line. The equation will be y = 2x - 1. To get our final answer, we simply need to substitute 4 in the place of -1, and we get our final equation, y = 2x + 4.

what are the factors of 47 (cuz im STUPID and i dont feel like doing this cuz im working on geogrophy)
Hitman42 [59]

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

The factors are the numbers you multiply to get 47. And they can't be fractions or numbers with fractions. They have to be integers (numbers without fractions).

So far, we see that we can multiply 1 and 47 to get 47. To see if there are any more, we see what numbers 1-10 we can divide by.

We cannot divide by 2 because 47 is odd.

We cannot divide by 3 because it gives us 15.6666...

We can't divide by 4 because 47 is odd.

We can't divide by 5 because 47 does not have a 5 or 0 in the ones place.

We can't divide by 6 because 47 is odd.

We can't divide by 7 because it gives us 6.714285....

We can't divide by 8 because 47 is odd.

We can't divide by 9 because it gives us 5.2222

And we obviously can't divide it by 10.

Therefore, the factors of 47 are 1 and 47. A number whose only factors are 1 and itself is called a prime number.

I hope that this helps! Have a wonderful day! :D

Exponential function f is represented by the table. x -2 -1 0 1 2 f(x) -46 -22 -10 -4 -1 Function g is represented by the equati
Scrat [10]

The statement that describes better about function is "Both functions are increasing, but function g increases at a faster average rate." since option (c) is correct.

Given the table

x         f(x)

-2        -46

-1         -22

0         -10

1           -4

2          -1

We have to choose which statement describes better about function

Let us assume f(x)=ab^x+c

at x=0, f(0)=-10

So, -10 =a+c

Similarly, by satisfying the above table in the f(x)

f(x)=\frac{33}{5} (\frac{1}{11})^x-\frac{17}{5}

f'(x) > 0

So we can say that f(x) is an increasing function.

g(x) = - 18  (\frac{1}{3}  )^ x + 2

g^ \prime (x) = - 18 (\frac{1}{3}  )^ x  ln(1/3)

ln(1/3) < 0

So, g^ \prime (x) > 0

So, g(x) is an increasing function.

For any x∈f(x) and  x∈g(x) g'(x) > f'(x)

So, g increases at a faster average rate

Thus, Both functions are increasing, but function g increases at a faster average rate.

1/3(6x-15)=1/2(10x-4) solve for x
Tatiana [17]

Simplify 1/3(6x - 15) to 6x - 15/3

6x - 15/3 = 1/2(10x - 4)

Factor out the common term; 3

3(2x - 5)/3 = 1/2(10x - 4)

Cancel out 3

2x - 5 = 1/2(10x - 4)

Simplify 1/2(10x - 4) to 10x - 4/2

2x - 5 = 10x - 4/2

Factor out the common term; 2

2x - 5 = 2(5x - 2)/2

Cancel out 2

2x - 5 = 5x - 2

Subtract 2x from both sides

-5 = 5x - 2 - 2x

Simplify 5x - 2 - 2x to 3x - 2

-5 = 3x - 2

Add 2 to both sides

-5 + 2 = 3x

Simplify -5 + 2 to -3

-3 = 3x

Divide both sides by 3

- 1 = x

Switch sides

<u>x = -1</u>
