Answer:
11 cups
Step-by-step explanation:
there are 4 quarts in a gallon
and there is 4 cups in a quart
the first week there was 37 cups of milk or 2 gallons 1 quart and 1 cup
the second week there was 11 more cups drinking making a total of 48 cups
We need the half-life of C-14 which is 5,730 years.
Now, we will need a half-life equation:
elapsed time = half-life * log (bgng amt / ending amt) / log 2
We'll say beginning amount = 100 and ending amount = 41
elapsed time = 5,730 * log (100/41) / log 2
elapsed time = 5,730 * log (

Answer:
For first lamp ; The resultant probability is 0.703
For both lamps; The resultant probability is 0.3614
Step-by-step explanation:
Let X be the lifetime hours of two bulbs
X∼exp(1/1400)
f(x)=1/1400e−1/1400x
P(X<x)=1−e−1/1400x
X∼exp(1/1400)
f(x)=1/1400 e−1/1400x
P(X<x)=1−e−1/1400x
The probability that both of the lamp bulbs fail within 1700 hours is calculated below,
P(X≤1700)=1−e−1/1400×1700
=1−e−1.21=0.703
The resultant probability is 0.703
Let Y be a lifetime of another lamp two bulbs
Then the Z = X + Y will follow gamma distribution that is,
X+Y=Z∼gamma(2,1/1400)
2λZ∼
X+Y=Z∼gamma(2,1/1400)
2λZ∼χ2α2
The probability that both of the lamp bulbs fail within a total of 1700 hours is calculated below,
P(Z≤1700)=P(1/700Z≤1.67)=
P(χ24≤1.67)=0.3614
The resultant probability is 0.3614
The correct option for this question would be C.
