Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a certain type of device has an advertised failure rate of 0.01 per hour.

Since failure rate is constant we find that time required for one failure

=1(100) =100

In 100 hours 1 failure can be expected

a)Mean time to failure = 100 hours

b) the probability that 300 hours will pass before a failure is​ observed

= first 5 hours not failed and next hour failed

= (1-0.01)^5 (0.01)\\= 0.00951

Worth 80 points!! It's alot for me to understand and i wanna get it right someone help?
Mandarinka [93]

Add all the new budget amounts:

510 + 254 + 295 + 51 + 0 + 100 + 100+ 0 + 100 = 1410


Her monthly total is 1410, which is less than her income of 1700

1700 - 1410 = 290

She has $290 extra each month.

So she can divide that amount by 2 to put an equal amount in each blank category, or add what ever amount less than that into each one.

Rom4ik [11]

Question:

You are in a bike race. When you get to the first checkpoint, you are 2/5 of the distance to the second checkpoint. When you get to the second check point, you are 1/4 of the distance to the finish. If the entire race is 40 miles, what is the distance between the start and the first check point?

Answer: 4 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Let distance between start to first checkpoint = x

First checkpoint to second checkpoint = 2/5 of x

Distance of start to checkpoint 1 = ( 2/5 of start to checkpoint 2)

Distance of start to checkpoint 2 = (1/4 of start to finish)

If start to checkpoint 2 = 1/4 of start to finish

Then,

Distance of start to checkpoint 1 = ( 2/5 * 1/4 of start to finish)

Distance of start to checkpoint 1 = 2/20 of start to finish = 1/10 of start to finish

Entire race = 40 miles = distance from start to finish

1/ 10 of 40

= ( 1/10) × 40

= 4 miles
