Given: 6x + 3 = 27
First what we do is to subtract 3 from both sides:
6x + 3 – 3 = 27 – 3
6x = 24
Then we divide both sides by 3:
6x/3 = 24/3
<span>2x = 8</span>
If we know that 128 is 74% of something, we can write it like this:
74%x=128.
If we take the percent away (percent means by hundred in latin, 1%=1/100), we'll have
74/100 *x=128
//let's multiply both sides by 100, that way we can get rid of the ugly "/100 because 100/100 = 1, and we can ignore 1 in multiplications
100*74/100 *x = 128 *100// let's simplify the left side: 100/100=1
74*x=128*100// let's calculate the right side now
74*x=12800// now we have to divide both sides by 74
x=12800/74
if we divde this, we have: 172 + 72/74. (why? see below)
We can simplify the fraction by division by 2: 172 36/37

Answer:
The probability of failure of both the bulbs is 0.4323.
Step-by-step explanation:
For an exponential distribution the distribution is given by
The value of λ is related to the mean μ as λ=1/μ,
Let us denote the 2 bulbs by X and Y thus the probability distribution of the 2 bulbs is as under
Similarly for the bulb Y the distribution function is given by
Thus the probability for both the bulbs to fail within 1500 hours is
