Answer:

-7

Step-by-step explanation:

Because for dividing one positive and one negative number, the rule is that the answer is going to be negative. So, what you can do is just do 56÷8 which equals 7 then add the negative sign to make it -7.

The exponential distribution applies to lifetimes of a certain component. Its failure rate is unknown. Find the probability that

wlad13 [49]

Answer:

a) 0.0821

b) 0.0111

c) 0.0041

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponential distribution:

The exponential probability distribution, with mean m, is described by the following equation:

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

In which $\lambda$ 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:

$P(X \leq x) = 1 - e^{-\lambda x}$

Either it lasts more 5 years or less, or it survives more than 5 years. The sum of the probabilities of these events is decimal 1. So

$P(X \leq 5) + P(X > 5) = 1$

In all 3 cases, we want P(X > 5). So

$P(X > 5) = 1 - P(X \leq 5)$

In which

$P(X \leq 5) = 1 - e^{-5\lambda}$

(a) lambda=.5

$P(X \leq 5) = 1 - e^{-5*0.5} = 0.9179$

$P(X > 5) = 1 - P(X \leq 5) = 1 - 0.9179 = 0.0821$

(b) lambda=0.9

$P(X \leq 5) = 1 - e^{-5*0.9} = 0.9889$

$P(X > 5) = 1 - P(X \leq 5) = 1 - 0.9889 = 0.0111$

(c) lambda=1.1

$P(X \leq 5) = 1 - e^{-5*1.1} = 0.9959$

$P(X > 5) = 1 - P(X \leq 5) = 1 - 0.9959 = 0.0041$
