Answer:
0.9999
Step-by-step explanation:
Let X be the random variable that measures the time that a switch will survive.
If X has an exponential distribution with an average life β=44, then the probability that a switch will survive less than n years is given by
So, the probability that a switch fails in the first year is
Now we have 100 of these switches installed in different systems, and let Y be the random variable that measures the the probability that exactly k switches will fail in the first year.
Y can be modeled with a binomial distribution where the probability of “success” (failure of a switch) equals 0.0225 and
where
equals combinations of 100 taken k at a time.
The probability that at most 15 fail during the first year is
Answer:
□ The temperature at a specific location as a function of time.
□ The temperature at a specific time as a function of the distance due west from New York City.
□ The altitude above sea level as a function of the distance due west from New York City.
Step-by-step explanation:
Temperature tends to vary continuously over distance and time.
Altitude rarely changes so abruptly we'd have to say it is a discontinuous function. Even a cliff has a (very high) defined slope.
Taxi charges tend to increment according to a rate schedule. That is, for each passing minute or fraction of a mile, the amount due jumps to a new value. We'd have to say those are discontinuous.
The nature of electrical circuits is such that current is never discontinuous. Even when the circuit is disconnected by a switch, the arcing at the switch contacts ensures the current is continuous as it rapidly goes to zero.

Step-by-step explanation:
Let's set up an equation using the formula for the area of a triangle.
Hint #22 / 3
\begin{aligned} \text{Area of a triangle} &= \dfrac12 \cdot \text{base} \cdot \text{height}\\\\ 12&= \dfrac12 \cdot 6 \cdot x \\\\ 12&= 3x \\\\ \dfrac{12}{\blueD{3}}&= \dfrac{3x}{\blueD{3}} ~~~~~~~\text{divide both sides by } {\blueD{ 3}}\\\\ \dfrac{12}{\blueD{3}}&= \dfrac{\cancel{3}x}{\blueD{\cancel{3}}}\\\\ x &=\dfrac{12}{\blueD{3}}\\\\ x &=4\end{aligned}
