Answer:
1.967 × 10⁻¹¹
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a conditional probability problem
Probability that a 12 year old leaf blower works for 5 more years = Probabilty that a leaf blower works for 17 years, given that it has worked for 12 years = P(17|12)
P(17|12) = P(17 n 12)/P(12)
P(17 n 12) = P(17)
Exponential random variable is given as
f(x) = λ e^(-λ.x)
λ = rate parameter = 5 years per blower
x = variable whose probability is required = 17
f(17) = 17 e^(-5×17)
f(17) = 17 e⁻⁸⁵ = 2.067 × 10⁻³⁶
f(12) = 12 e^(-5×12)
f(12) = 12 e⁻⁶⁰ = 1.051 × 10⁻²⁵
P(17|12) = (2.067 × 10⁻³⁶)/(1.051 × 10⁻²⁵)
P(17|12) = 1.967 × 10⁻¹¹

Answer:
y = 
x²
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that y and x² are directly proportional then the equation relating them is
y = kx² ← k is the constant of proportion
When x = 2
y = k × 2² = 4k
When x = 5
y = k × 5² = 25k
Then
25k - 4k = 20 ( difference between values is 20 )
21k = 20 ( divide both sides by 21 )
k =
y = x² ← equation of proportion
