Answer:

(8, 4 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

5x - 5y = 20 → (1)

- 3x + 5y = - 4 → (2)

Add the 2 equations term by term to eliminate the y- term

2x + 0 = 16

2x = 16 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 8

Substitute x = 8 into either of the 2 equations and solve for y

Substituting into (2)

- 3(8) + 5y = - 4

- 24 + 5y = - 4 ( add 24 to both sides )

5y = 20 ( divide both sides by 5 )

y = 4

solution is (8, 4 )

The CPU of a personal computer has a lifetime that is exponentially distributed with a mean lifetime of six years. a) What is th

amm1812

Answer: Our required probability is 0.39.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

X be the exponentially distributed with mean life = 6 years

So, E[x]=6

$\dfrac{1}{\lambda}=6\\\\\lambda=\dfrac{1}{6}$

So, our cumulative distribution function would be

$F(x)=1-e^{-\lambda x}$

We need to find the probability that the CPU fails within 3 years.

$P(X$

Hence, our required probability is 0.39.

Karl set out to Alaska on his truck. The amount of fuel remaining in the truck's tank (in liters) as a function of distance driv

Stells [14]

Answer:

500 kilometers

Step-by-step explanation:

The fuel (y) Karl has in his car is a function of the distance (x) Karl travelled. The amount of fuel (y) is dependent on the distance (x) Karl travelled.

On the y-axis, we have amount of fuel.

On the x-axis, we have distance travelled.

At the time Karl travelled when he had 200 liters of fuel (y) remaining in his car, he had travelled a distance (x) of 500 kilometers.

We know this by looking at the graph given. When x (distance) = 500, y (fuel) = 200.
