Extensive experience with fans of a certain type used in diesel engines has suggested that the exponential distribution provides a good model for time until failure. Suppose the mean time until failure is 23,100 hours. (a) What is the probability that a randomly selected fan will last at least 20,000 hours?

What is the probability that a randomly selected fan will last at most 30,000 hours?

What is the probability that a randomly selected fan will last between 20,000 hours and 30,000 hours?

(b) What is the probability that the lifetime of a fan exceeds the mean value by more than 2 standard deviations?

What is the probability that the lifetime of a fan exceeds the mean value by more than 3 standard deviations?

0.4207149;0.7271136; 0.3063987; 0.04979 ; 0.01832

Step-by-step explanation:

For an exponential distribution:

IF Mean time until failure = 23100

λ = 1/ 23100 = 0.0000432900

What is the probability that a randomly selected fan will last at least 20,000 hours

x ≥ 20000

P(X ≥ 20000) = 1 - P(X ≤ 20000)

1 - P(X ≤ 20000) = [1 - (1 - e^(-λx))]

1 - P(X ≤ 20000) = [1 - (1 - e^(-0.0000432900*20000)

1 - P(X ≤ 20000) = [1 - (1 - 0.4207148)]

1 - P(X ≤ 20000) = 1 - 0.5792851

1 - P(X ≤ 20000) = 0.4207149

11) What is the probability that a randomly selected fan will last at most 30,000 hours?

x ≤ 30000

P(X ≤ 30000) = 1 - e^(-λx)

P(X ≤ 20000) = 1 - e^(-0.0000432900*30000)

= 1 - e^(−1.2987)

= 1 - 0.2728863

= 0.7271136

111) What is the probability that a randomly selected fan will last between 20,000 hours and 30,000 hours?

0.7271136 - 0.4207149 = 0.3063987

B) What is the probability that the lifetime of a fan exceeds the mean value by more than 2 standard deviations?

More than two standard deviation

X = 23100 + 2(23100) = 23100 + 46200 = 69300

Using the online exponential probability calculator :

P(X > 69300) = 0.04979

C) What is the probability that the lifetime of a fan exceeds the mean value by more than 3 standard deviations?

X = 23100 + 3(23100) = 23100 + 69300 = 92400

P(X > 92400) = 0.01832

(d)

step-by-step explanation:

given: the line in the graph passes through points (5,30) and (6,26).

then, the equation of line is:

now, put y=a(n) and x=n,

hence, option d is correct.
