(a) A type of lightbulb is labeled as having an average lifetime of 1000 hours. It's reasonable to model the probability of failure of these bulbs by an exponential density function with mean μ = 1000. (i) Use this model to find the probability that a bulb fails within the first 300 hours. (Round your answer to three decimal places.) 0.259 Correct: Your answer is correct. (ii) Use this model to find the probability that a bulb burns for more than 900 hours. (Round your answer to three decimal places.) 0.407 Correct: Your answer is correct. (b) What is the median lifetime of these lightbulbs? (Round your answer to one decimal place.) 693 Incorrect: Your answer is incorrect. hr

a)0.259

b)0.407

c)693.1hrs

Step-by-step explanation:

This is an exponential density function with a constant c and mean of 1000:

The constant c is calculated as:

#To find the probability that i falls with the first 300 hrs;

Hence, the probability that a bulb fails within the first 300 hours is 0.259

b. For more than 900hrs, integrate between 900 and infinity.

#Use the limit method for dealing with improper integrals:

Hence,  the probability that a bulb burns for more than 900 hours is 0.407

c. To find the median lifetime of these bulbs:

Hence, the median lifetime of these bulbs is 693.1hrs

one that is bigger than 3 1/2

plants store their excess carbohydrate in the form of starch so that it could be used as energy source later on. the excess carbohydrate is converted into starch in the plastid i.e. chloroplast & this process occurs in the presence of sunlight. it is an insoluble polymer of glucose which gets stored in cell organelles named as amyloplasts. in some plants, starch is also stored in roots and embryos.
