Suppose that an appliance is constructed in such a way that it requires that n independent electronic components are all functio

ning. Assume that the lifespan of each of these, Tj, is an exponential random variable with parameter λj.
a. Let X be the random variable giving the lifespan of the appliance. Find the CDF and PDF for X.
b. Find the expected value of X.
c. Now find the median lifespan of the appliance (that is, the time t at which half of the appliances are likely to have broken and half to be working ).

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

T_j \sim exp ( \lambda j)  \ \ \  j = 1 (1) n \\ \\  f_{Tj}(tj) = \lambda j e^{-\lambda j tj } , tj>0 \\ \\ P\Big[ Tj> x\Big]  = \int \limits ^{\infty}_{x} \lambda j e^{-\lambda j tj}\ dtj \\ \\  = e^{-\lambda j x}, x > 0  \\ \\   \\ \\  a) F_x (x)  \\ \\  = P[X \le x ]  \\ \\  = 1 - P[X> x]  \\ \\  = 1 - \pi \limits ^{n}_{j =1} \Big\{ P[T_j > x ] \Big \}

\text{This is because the appliance has the capacity to work for more than (x) }\text{hours if and only if all the "n" components work more than (x) hours.}

\text{Then:}

= 1 - e \  \pi^{n}_{j=1} \ e^{-\lambda j x} \\ \\  = 1 - e^{- (\sum \limits ^{n}_{j=1} \lambda j)x}

∴

CDF = 1 - e^{- (\sum \limits ^{n}_{j=1} \lambda j)x}\ , \ x>0

PDF =\Big( \sum \limits ^{n}_{j =1}  \lambda j\Big) e^{- (\sum \limits ^{n}_{j=1} \lambda j)x}\ , \ x>0

f_x(x) = \Big( \sum \limits ^{n}_{j =1}  \lambda j\Big) e^{- (\sum \limits ^{n}_{j=1} \lambda j)x}\ , \ x>0

(b)

E(x)  = \int \limits ^{\infty}_{o }x f_x (x) \ dx  \\ \\  = \int \limits ^{\infty}_{o }x  \ \Big( \sum \limits ^{n}_{j =1}  \lambda j\Big) e^{- (\sum \limits ^{n}_{j=1} \lambda j)x}\ , \  dx

= \dfrac{1}{\sum \limits ^n_{j=1} \lambda j} \ \  \int \limits ^{\infty}_{o} \Big [(\sum \limits ^n_{j=1} \lambda j  )x \Big] e ^{-\Big ( \sum \limits ^{n}_{j=1} \lambda j  \Big)x} \ \ d \Big( x \sum \limits ^n_{j=1} \lambda j \Big)

= \dfrac{1}{\sum \limits ^n_{j= 1} \lambda j} \int \llimits ^{\infty}_{o} t e^{-t} \ dt

= \dfrac{1}{\sum \limits ^n_{j= 1} \lambda j} \int \llimits ^{\infty}_{o} t e^{-t} \ dt  \ \ \ \  \text{\Big[By transformation }t =( \sum \limits ^n_{j=1} \lambda j )x \Big]

= \dfrac{1}{\sum \limits ^n_{j= 1} \lambda j}

(c)

Let  \ \ l_y_{\dfrac{1}{2}} \text{ be the median}

∴

F(l_y_{\dfrac{1}{2}}) = \dfrac{1}{2} \\ \\  1 - e ^{-\Big (\sum \limits ^{n}_{j=1} \lambda j \Big)}  {l_y}_{\frac{1}{2}} = \dfrac{1}{2} \\ \\  \dfrac{1}{2} = e^{-\Big (\sum \limits ^{n}_{j=1} \lambda j \Big) }  {l_y}_{\frac{1}{2}} \\ \\  - In 2 = {-\Big (\sum \limits ^{n}_{j=1} \lambda j \Big)}  {l_y}_{\frac{1}{2}}  \\ \\  \\ \\ \mathbf{ {l_y}_{\frac{1}{2}} = \dfrac{ In  \ 2}{\sum \limits ^{n}_{j=1} \lambda j }}

The perpendicular bisectors of two sides of a triangle meet at point that belongs to the third side. Prove that this is a right
devlian [24]
<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

The point of intersection of the perpendicular bisectors of a triangle is the circumcenter, the center of the circle that contains the three triangle vertices.

If that center is on one side, that side must be a diameter of the circle. The diameter cuts the circle into two arcs, each of which measures 180°.

The third vertex of the triangle and its two legs form an inscribed angle that subtends an arc of 180°. The measure of that angle is half the measure of the arc, so the angle measures 90° and is a <em>right angle</em>.

A triangle with a right angle is a right triangle. QED
