[tex]X \sim \operatorname{Exp}(\beta=10) \quad[/tex] (given mean)

Pdf is given by: [tex]f(x)=\frac{1}{\beta} e^{-x / \beta}, 0<x[/tex]

Pdf: [tex]f(x)=\frac{1}{10} e^{-x / 10}, \quad 0<x,[tex] and zero otherwise.

Cdf: [tex]P(X \leq x)=1-e^{-x / \beta}[/tex]

[tex]P(X \leq x)=1-e^{(-x / 10)} \quad[/tex] for [tex]x>0 \Longrightarrow P(X>x)=e^{-x / 10}[/tex]

a)[tex] \begin{array}{c}

P(X<12)=1-\exp (-12 / \beta)=1-e^{-1.2}=1-0.301194=0.698806 \approx 0.699 \\

P(X<12)=0.699 \end{array}[/tex]

USE SYSTEMS BY SUBSTITUTION.

X=
Y=

Answers

Answer:

X=-2

Y=0

Step-by-step explanation:

X+y=-2 = x=-2-y

3x+4y=-6

3(-2-y)+4y=-6

-6-3y+4y=-6

y=0

x+3(0)=-2

x=-2

Answer:

[tex]\boxed {\boxed {\sf (-2,0)}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve by substitution we must first isolate 1 variable in an equation.

Let's use the first equation.

[tex]x+3y= -2[/tex]

Subtract 3y from both sides to isolate the variable x.

[tex]x+3y-3y= -2 -3y[/tex]

[tex]x= -2 -3y[/tex]

Now we can substitute the expression (-2-3y) in for x in the second equation.

[tex]3x+4y= -6[/tex]

[tex]3(-2-3y)+4y= -6[/tex]

Distribute the 3. Multiply each term inside the parentheses by 3.

[tex](3*-2)+ (3*-3y)+4y=-6\\-6-9y+4y=-6[/tex]

Combine the like terms on the left side.

[tex]-6-5y= -6[/tex]

Add 6 to both sides to isolate the variable.

[tex]-6+6-5y=-6+6\\-5y=0[/tex]

Divide both sides by -5.

[tex]-5y/-5=0/-5 \\y=0[/tex]

Now we know that y is equal to 0 and can substitute it into the first equation and find x.

[tex]x+3(0)=-2[/tex]

[tex]x+0=-2 \\x= -2[/tex]

x is equal to -2 and y is equal to 0.

the triangle was made smaller (i forget what the term is)

it was made smaller by  [tex]1\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

to find that you divide 24 by its equivalent side on the other triangle which would be 18

24 / 18 =  [tex]1\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

to find what x is equal to you have to find the equivalent side on the other triangle. this would be 16. since the triangle with 16 is bigger the equation is:

16 / [tex]1\frac{1}{3}[/tex] = 12

so x = 12

You put $500 in a savings account. The account earns $20 simple interest in 6 months. What is the annual interest rate? Write your answer as a percent

Answers

Answer:

8%

Step-by-step explanation:

For simple interest, we use the equation I = PRT, where I is the interest earned, P is the principal/amount invested, R is the rate as a decimal, not percentage, and T is the time in years.

For this problem, we have to use 0.5 for T, because 6 months is 1/2 a year.

20 = (500)(r)(0.5)

20 = 250r

r = 0.08 = 8%
