1. Measuing blood pressure is a vital process in determining a patient's immediate health
condition. If the systolic blood pressure exceeds 150mm Hg, the patient is considered to
have high blood pressure and medication may be prescribed. Assume that a patient's
systolic blood pressure reading during a given day follows a normal distribution with a
mean of 160mm Hg and a standard deviation of 20mm Hg.
(a) If 5 readings are taken at various times during the day, determine the probability that
the average blood pressure reading will be less than 150mm Hg and hence, fail to
indicate that the patient has a high blood pressure problem
(6) Determine the number of readings required so that the probability is at most 1% of
failing to detect that a patient has high blood pressure.

g Suppose, for simplicity, that three main parts of a laptop are CPU, RAM, and hard drive;so if one of theses components fails, the laptop fails. Assume that the life times of CPU, RAM, and hard drive are exponentially distributed with mean 3 years, 2 years, and 5 years, respectively. If the company that sells these laptops guarantees the replacement of any laptops that fail in the first year, anda replacement costs $500, what would be the average yearly replacement cost

Answers

Answer:

The average yearly replacement cost is approximately $32,211,500

Step-by-step explanation:

 Exponential Distribution

P(X < x) = 1 - e -x/

[tex]P(X < x) = 1 - e^{\dfrac{-x}{\mu}}[/tex]

For the CPU, μ = 3 years

The probability that a CPU fails in less than 1 year is therefore;

P(C) = [tex]P(X < 1) = 1 - e^{\dfrac{-1}{3}} \approx 0.2835[/tex]

For the RAM, μ = 2 years

The probability that a RAM fails in less than 1 year is therefore;

P(R) = [tex]P(X < 1) = 1 - e^{\dfrac{-1}{2}} \approx 0.3935[/tex]

For the hard drive, μ = 5 years

The probability that a hard drive fails in less than 1 year is therefore;

P(H) = [tex]P(X < 1) = 1 - e^{\dfrac{-1}{5}} \approx 0.1813[/tex]

The probability that either a CPU, or a RAM or a hard drive fails in 1 year so that a replacement is required, P(C ∪ R ∪ H), is given as follows;

P(C ∪ R ∪ H) = P(C) + P(R) + P(H) - P(C∩R) - P(C∩H) - P(R∩H) + P(C∩R∩H)

∴ P(C ∪ R ∪ H) = 0.2835 + 0.3935 + 0.1813 - (0.2835 × 0.3935) - (0.2835 × 0.1813) -(0.3935 × 0.1813) + (0.2835 × 0.3935 × 0.1813) ≈ 0.64423

∴ P(C ∪ R ∪ H) ≈ 0.64423

There is a 0.64423 chance that a laptop will require replacement

For 100,000 laptops sold a year and a replacement cost of $500 per laptop, we have;

The average yearly replacement cost, 'Cost' is given as follows;

Cost = 500 × 100,000 × 0.64423 = 32,211,500

The average yearly replacement cost, Cost ≈ $32,211,500

Which situations are BEST modeled by a linear function? es A) A monthly gym membership fee. B) The cost of milk by the gallon. 0) The price of pears by the pound D) The interest rate on a car lone. E) The half-life of a radiative material.​

Answers

Answer:

B) The cost of milk by the gallon.

C) The price of pears by the pound.

Step-by-step explanation:

A linear function is one that both the dependent and independent variables increases or decreases proportionally.

Thus from the given options:

i. If the gallons of milk increase, then the cost of milk also would increase proportionally. A decrease in the gallons of milk would also reduce the cost of milk.

ii. An increase in the pounds of the pearls would cause an increase in the price of the pearls. Also, a decrease in the pounds of pearls would reduce the price of the pearls.

Thus, the answers to the question are options B and C.

Oil is pumped continuously from a well at a rate proportional to the amount of oil left in the well. Initially there were million barrels of oil in the well; six years later barrels remain.At what rate was the amount of oil in the well decreasing when there were barrels remaining

Answers

Answer:

The amount of oil was decreasing at 69300 barrels, yearly

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Initial =1\ million[/tex]

[tex]6\ years\ later = 500,000[/tex]

Required

At what rate did oil decrease when 600000 barrels remain

To do this, we make use of the following notations

t = Time

A = Amount left in the well

So:

[tex]\frac{dA}{dt} = kA[/tex]

Where k represents the constant of proportionality

[tex]\frac{dA}{dt} = kA[/tex]

Multiply both sides by dt/A

[tex]\frac{dA}{dt} * \frac{dt}{A} = kA * \frac{dt}{A}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{dA}{A} = k\ dt[/tex]

Integrate both sides

[tex]\int\ {\frac{dA}{A} = \int\ {k\ dt}[/tex]

[tex]ln\ A = kt + lnC[/tex]

Make A, the subject

[tex]A = Ce^{kt}[/tex]

[tex]t = 0\ when\ A =1\ million[/tex] i.e. At initial

So, we have:

[tex]A = Ce^{kt}[/tex]

[tex]1000000 = Ce^{k*0}[/tex]

[tex]1000000 = Ce^{0}[/tex]

[tex]1000000 = C*1[/tex]

[tex]1000000 = C[/tex]

[tex]C =1000000[/tex]

Substitute [tex]C =1000000[/tex] in [tex]A = Ce^{kt}[/tex]

[tex]A = 1000000e^{kt}[/tex]

To solve for k;

[tex]6\ years\ later = 500,000[/tex]

i.e.

[tex]t = 6\ A = 500000[/tex]

So:

[tex]500000= 1000000e^{k*6}[/tex]

Divide both sides by 1000000

[tex]0.5= e^{k*6}[/tex]

Take natural logarithm (ln) of both sides

[tex]ln(0.5) = ln(e^{k*6})[/tex]

[tex]ln(0.5) = k*6[/tex]

Solve for k

[tex]k = \frac{ln(0.5)}{6}[/tex]

[tex]k = \frac{-0.693}{6}[/tex]

[tex]k = -0.1155[/tex]

Recall that:

[tex]\frac{dA}{dt} = kA[/tex]

Where

[tex]\frac{dA}{dt}[/tex] = Rate

So, when

[tex]A = 600000[/tex]

The rate is:

[tex]\frac{dA}{dt} = -0.1155 * 600000[/tex]

[tex]\frac{dA}{dt} = -69300[/tex]

Hence, the amount of oil was decreasing at 69300 barrels, yearly

You should be able to see these pretty easily from the graph. If I understand your function correctly:

f(x) = square root(x+2) - 3

then x cannot be less than -2. Your domain is x > -2. In interval notation [-2,∞)

The lowest value for y is -3 so the range is y > -3. In interval notation [-3,∞)
