Lee drank 1 2/3 quarts water Monday. He drank 2/5 water Tuesday. How amny quarts did he drink today?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Lee drank 31/15 qt. of water (2 1/15 qt. as a mixed number, or approximately 20.07 qt. as a decimal).

Step-by-step explanation:

To add and subtract fractions, a least common denominator needs to be found. But first, to make it easier, mixed numbers should be replaced with improper fractions. So, Lee drank 5/3 qt. of water.

Now to find the LCD (least common denominator), the denominators of each fraction should be multiplied by 1, then 2, then 3, etc until a product of one fraction is the same as that of another (as shown):

For 2/5, the denominator is 5, so 5*1 = 5, 5*2 = 10, 5*3 = 15...

For 5/3, the denominator is 3, so 3*1 = 3, 3*2 = 6, 3*3 = 9, 3*3 = 4, 3*5 = 15...

15 is the LCD, since both denominators can be multiplied by a whole number for a product of 15.

Now, each fraction is multiplied by 1, by multiplying each fractions numerators and denominators by the number found previously that causes the denominator to equal 15:

For 2/5, 5*3 = 15, so both 2 and 5 are multiplied by 3

        2* 3 = 6, 5 * 3 = 15, so 2/5 = 6/15

For 5/3, 3*5 = 15, so both 5 and 3 are multiplied by 5

        5* 5 = 25, 3 * 5 = 15, so 5/3 = 25/15

Now these fractions can easily be added or subtracted by performing these operations on their numerators. Sonia drank 6/15 qt. more than Lee, so she drank 6/15 + 25/15 qt. of water, or 31/15 qt.

g Find the required probabilities using the exponential density function f(t) = 1 λ e−t/λ, [0, [infinity]). The time t (in years) until failure of a component in a machine is exponentially distributed with λ = 3.5. Find the probabilities that the lifetime of a given component will be less than 1 year, more than 2 years but less than 4 years, and at least 5 years. (Round your answers to three decimal places.) (a) less than 1 year (b) more than 2 years but less than 4 years (c) at least 5 years

Answers

Answer:

(a) less than 1 year =0.751488

(b) more than 2 years but less than 4 years = 0.2458

(c) at least 5 years= 0.760331

Step-by-step explanation:

f(t) = 1 λ e−t/λ, [0, [infinity])

First we calculate the probability for an exponential random variable X with parameter λ

P (X= t) = ∫ 1 λ e−t/λ, dt

P (x=t) =  e−t/λ,

λ = 3.5

Now P (X< 1 ) = ∫ 1 λ e−t/λ, dt        [the limits are (-∞ to 1)]

                         = e−1/3.5= 0.751488

P ( 2<X< 4 ) =  ∫ 1 λ e−t/λ, dt         [ the limits are (2 to 4)]

                     =e−2/3.5- e−4/3.5

                  = e-0.57142-e-1.142857  

                  = 0.5647-0.31890

                  = 0.2458

P (at least 5)  = 1- P (x=5)

                   = 1-∫ 1 λ e−t/λ, dt           [ the limits are (∞ to 5)]

                     = 1- e−5/3.5

                     = 1 - e-1.4285

                     = 1-0.239

                        = 0.760331

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]XZ= 4[/tex]

[tex]\angle Y = 45[/tex]

[tex]\angle Z = 60[/tex]

Required

Determine the measure of side XY

To do this, we make use of sine law. This is as follows:

[tex]\frac{a}{\sin\ A} = \frac{b}{\sin\ B} = \frac{c}{\sin\ C}[/tex]

In this case:

[tex]\frac{4}{\sin(45)} = \frac{XY}{\sin(60)}[/tex]

Cross Multiply

[tex]XY * \sin(45) = 4 * \sin(60)[/tex]

[tex]XY * 0.7071 = 4 * 0.8660[/tex]

Make XY the subject

[tex]XY = \frac{4 * 0.8660}{0.7071}[/tex]

[tex]XY = \frac{3.4640}{0.7071}[/tex]

[tex]XY = 4.89888276057[/tex]

[tex]XY = 4.9[/tex] -- approximated

Interest charged over two years: $20

Total amount: $220

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for simple interest is A = P ( 1 + rt ).

A = 200 ( 1 + (0.05 * 2))

A is the total amount ( interest + principle )

A = 220

P is the principle ( initial amount deposited )

P = 200
