Algebra 1B: Exponential Functions Unit 2

Three highways connect city A with city B. Two highways connect city B with city C.

QveST [7]

(a) The probability that there is no open route from A to B is (0.2)^3 = 0.008.
Therefore the probability that at least one route is open from A to B is given by: 1 - 0.008 = 0.992.
The probability that there is no open route from B to C is (0.2)^2 = 0.04.
Therefore the probability that at least one route is open from B to C is given by:
1 - 0.04 = 0.96.
The probability that at least one route is open from A to C is:
$0.992\times0.96=0.9523$

(b)
α The probability that at least one route is open from A to B would become 0.9984. The probability in (a) will become: $0.9984\times0.96=0.95846$

β The probability that at least one route is open from B to C would become 0.992. The probability in (a) will become:
$0.992\times0.992=0.9841$

Gamma: The probability that a highway between A and C will not be blocked in rush hour is 0.8. We need to find the probability that there is at least one route open from A to C using either a route A to B to C, or the route A to C direct. This is found by using the formula:
$P(A\cup B)=P(A)+P(B)-P(A\cap B)$
$0.9523+0.8-(0.9523\times0.8)=0.99$
Therefore building a highway direct from A to C gives the highest probability that there is at least one route open from A to C.

Use the method of cylindrical shells to find the volume V generated by rotating the region bounded by the given curves about the

xenn [34]

Answer:

As per the given statement:

The region bounded by the given curves about the y-axis, $y = 13e^{-x^2}$ , y=0, x = 0 and x = 1

Using cylindrical shell method:

The volume of solid(V) is obtained by rotating about y-axis and the region under the curve y = f(x) from a to b is;

$V = \int_{a}^{b} 2\pi x f(x) dx$ where $0\leq a$

where x is the radius of the cylinder

f(x) is the height of the cylinder.

From the given figure:

radius = x

height(h) =f(x) =y= $13e^{-x^2}$

a = 0 and b = 1

So, the volume V generated by rotating the given region:

$V =2 \pi \int_{0}^{1} x ( 13e^{-x^2}) dx\\\\V=2\pi\left [ -\frac{13}{2}e^{-x^2} \right ]_{0}^{1}\\\\V=2\pi\left (-\frac{13}{2e}-\left(-\frac{13}{2}\right) \right )\\\\V=-\frac{13\pi }{e}+13\pi$

therefore, the volume of V generated by rotating the given region is $V=-\frac{13\pi }{e}+13\pi$
