Question

A system consisting of one original unit plus a spare can function for a random amount of time X. If the density of Xis given (in units of months) byf(x) ={cxe -x/2 x>0 0 x<0 What is the probability that the system functions for at least 5 months?

Answer 1

Answer:

0.2397

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

fX(x) = Cxe^(−x/2) if x >0 0 otherwise, where C > 0 is some constant.

The probability that the system functions for at least 5 months

= 0.2397
