Suppose that two electronic components in the guidance system for a missile operate independently and that each has a length of life governed by the exponential distribution with mean 1 (with measurements in hundreds of hours). Find the probability density function for the average length of life of the two components.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The probability density function for the average length of life of the two components is [tex]f(x) = 0.5e^{-0.5x}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponential distribution:

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

[tex]f(x) = \mu e^{-\mu x}[/tex]

In which [tex]\mu = \frac{1}{m}[/tex] is the decay parameter.

Each missile has a length of life governed by the exponential distribution with mean 1 (with measurements in hundreds of hours). Find the probability density function for the average length of life of the two components.

2, each with mean 1 means that [tex]m = 2*1 = 2, \mu = \frac{1}{2} = 0.5[/tex]

So the probability density function is:

[tex]f(x) = 0.5e^{-0.5x}[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

E(X) = 1.9375

SD(X) = 1.20

Step-by-step explanation:

Let :

G = girl ; B = Boy

P(G) = 0.5 ; P(B) = 0.5

Sample space :

G, BG, BBG, BBBG, BBBBG, BBBBB

Using the multiplication rule of independence :

P(G) = 0.5

P(BG) = 0.5 * 0.5 = 0.25

P(BBG) = 0.5 * 0.5 * 0.5 = 0.125

P(BBBG) = 0.5 * 0.5 * 0.5 * 0.5 = 0.0625

P(BBBBG) = 0.5 * 0.5 * 0.5 * 0.5 * 0.5 = 0.03125

P(BBBBB) = 0.5 * 0.5 * 0.5 * 0.5 * 0.5 = 0.03125

Creating a probability distribution table :

X = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5

For X = 5 ;

P(BBBBG) + P(BBBBB) = 0.03125 + 0.03125 = 0.0625

X :___ 1 ____ 2 ____ 3 _____ 4 _____ 5

P(X) : 0.5 __ 0.25 _ 0.125 _0.0625 _0.0625

The expected value E(X) :

√(ΣX * P(X)) = (1*0.5)+(2*0.25)+(3*0.125)+(4*0.0625)+(5*0.0625) = 1.9375

The standard deviation SD(x) :

√(ΣX²*p(x) - E(X)²

√((1^2*0.5)+(2^2*0.25)+(3^2*0.125)+(4^2*0.0625)+(5^2*0.0625) - 1.9375^2)

√(5.1875 - 3.75390625)

√1.43359375

SD(X) = 1.197

SD(X) = 1.20

6. Edgar pays $67.86 for 7.8 pounds of fertilizer. What is
the price per pound of fertilizer?
O F. $6.98
O G. $5.65
H. $8.70
O J. $10.26
will mark brainlyest

Answers

the answer is H. $8.70

After dividing, the price per pound of fertilizer, we get  $8.70.

Hence, Option H is correct.

Repetitive subtraction is the process of division. It is the multiplication operation's opposite. It is described as the process of creating equitable groupings. When dividing numbers, we divide a bigger number into smaller ones such that the larger number obtained will equal the multiplication of the smaller numbers.

Given that,

Edgar pays $67.86 for the fertilizer.

The weight of the fertilizer is 7.8 pounds.

To find the price per pound of fertilizer,

Divide the total cost by the number of pounds.

In this case, we have $67.86 for 7.8 pounds of fertilizer.

So, the price per pound of fertilizer would be:

67.86/7.8 = $8.70.

Hence,

The price per pound of fertilizer is $8.70.

The domain is all real numbers except 9 (positive)

BH

Answers

Answer:

(a) [tex]Sequence: -1, 1, 3[/tex]

(b) nth term: [tex]T_n = 4+ 5n[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving (a)

Given

[tex]T_n = 2n - 3[/tex]

The first 3 terms.

When n = 1

[tex]T_1 = 2*1 - 3[/tex]

[tex]T_1 = 2 - 3[/tex]

[tex]T_1 = -1[/tex]

When n = 2

[tex]T_2 = 2*2 - 3[/tex]

[tex]T_2 = 4 - 3[/tex]

[tex]T_2 = 1[/tex]

When n = 3

[tex]T_3 = 3*2 - 3[/tex]

[tex]T_3 = 6 - 3[/tex]

[tex]T_3= 3[/tex]

So, the first three terms are:

[tex]Sequence: -1, 1, 3[/tex]

Solving (b)

Given

[tex]Sequence: 9,14,19,24[/tex]

Required

The nth term

The sequence is arithmetic.

So, first calculate the common difference (d)

[tex]d = 14 - 9[/tex]

[tex]d = 5[/tex]

The nth term is then calculated as:

[tex]T_n = a + (n - 1) * d[/tex]

Where

[tex]a =First\ term[/tex]

So:

[tex]a = 9[/tex] and [tex]d = 5[/tex]

[tex]T_n = 9 + (n - 1) * 5[/tex]

[tex]T_n = 9 + 5n - 5[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]T_n = 9 - 5+ 5n[/tex]

[tex]T_n = 4+ 5n[/tex]

The diagram shows a trapezium ABCD and a square PQRS.
AD=8cm
DC=3AB
The perimeter of the square is 24cm
The area of the square is half the area of the trapezium work out the length of AB

Answers

Answer:

AB = 2.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of square = 4L

24 = 4L

L = 24/4

L = 6cm

Hence the side length of square is 6cm

Area of square = L^2

Area of square = 6^2

Area of square = 36 sq. cm

Area of square = 1/2 * Area of the trapezium

36 = 1/2 * (AB+3AB)*8

72 = (AB+3AB)*8

72 = 4AB * 8

72 = 32AB

AB = 72/32

AB = 2.25

Precisamente el da en el que conoci aAugustus Waters, fue el da en el que casi consigui escaquearse para quedarse viendo un maratnde Americas Next Top Model.Lo primero que pens de Augustus Waters, para qu negarlo, fue que era muy guapo. Aunque conuna personalidad tan arrolladora como la suya, su fsico pronto pas a segundo plano. Escarismtico, hablador, divertido, le gustan las metforas y filosofar, y siempre parece saber qudecir.
