Answer:

11 km/hr.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given information:

Simulated speed = 20/km/h

Time = 15 mins = 1/4 hr = 0.25 hr

Distance Covered as per simulated speed = $20\times \frac{1}{4}=5km$

Position of Julian according to the app = $-2\frac{1}{4}=-2.25$ .

Actual distance covered by the bike is

$Distance= 5 - 2.25 = 2.75km$

Formula for speed:

$\text{Average Speed}=\frac{Distance}{Time}$

$\text{Average Speed}=\frac{2.75}{0.25}$

$\text{Average Speed}=11$

Therefore, the average speed of Julian is 11 km/hr.

The number of bacteria in a culture is given by the function n(t) =950e^0.45t Where t is measured in hours A) what is the contin

tatiyna

Answer:

a) The continuous rate of growth of this bacterium population is 45%

b) Initial population of culture at t = 0 is 950 bacteria

c) number of bacterial culture contain at t = 5 is 9013 bacteria

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of bacteria in a culture is given by

n(t) = 950 $e^{0.45t}$

a) rate of growth is

Bacteria growth model N(t) = no $e^{rt}$

Where r is the growth rate

hence r = 0.45

= 45%

b) Initial population of culture at t = 0

n(0) = 950 $e^{0.45(0)}$

= 950 $e^{0}$

= 950 bacteria

c) number of bacterial culture contain at t = 5

n(5) = 950 $e^{0.45(5)}$

= 950 $e^{2.25}$

= 9013.35

= 9013 bacteria

The thickness of a ﬂange on an aircraft component is uniformly distributed between 0.95 and 1.05 millimeters. Determine the foll

Mrrafil [7]

Answer

given,

thickness of a ﬂange on an aircraft component is uniformly distributed between 0.95 and 1.05 millimeters.

X = U[0.95,1.05] 0.95≤ x ≤ 1.05

the cumulative distribution function of flange

F(x) = P{X≤ x}= $\dfrac{x-0.95}{1.05-0.95}$

= $\dfrac{x-0.95}{0.1}$

b) P(X>1.02)= 1 - P(X≤1.02)

= $1- \dfrac{1.02-0.95}{0.1}$

= 0.3

c) The thickness greater than 0.96 exceeded by 90% of the ﬂanges.

d) mean = $\dfrac{0.95+1.05}{2}$

= 1

variance = $\dfrac{(1.05-0.95)^2}{12}$

= 0.000833

If a random variable X is exponentially distributed with parameter λ=2, then P(X≥1) is equal to

Rasek [7]

Answer:

D. 0.1353

B. 0.0473

Step-by-step explanation:

For an exponentially distributed random variable, the cumulative distribution function is:

$P(x\leq a) = 1 - e^{-\lambda a}\\P(x\geq a) = e^{-\lambda a}$

with parameter λ=2, then P(X≥1) is equal to:

$P(x\geq 1) = e^{-2*1}=0.1353$

D. 0.1353

with parameter λ=1.5, then P(2≤X≤4) is equal to

$P(2\leq x \leq 4) = P(x \leq 4) - P(x\leq 2)\\P(2\leq x \leq 4) =1 - (e^{-1.5*4}) - (1-(e^{-1.5*2}))\\P(2\leq x \leq 4) = 0.0473$

B. 0.0473
