The probability density function of the time to failure of an electronic component in a copier (in hours) is given by: f(x) = e^(-x/1047) / 1047 for x > 0 a) A component lasts more than 3000 hours before failure. (Round the answer to 3 decimal places) 0.0498 b) A component fails in the interval from 1000 to 2000 hours. (Round the answer to 3 decimal places) c) A component fails before 1000 hours. (Round the answer to 3 decimal places) d) Determine the number of hours at which 10% of all components have failed. (Round the answer to the nearest integer)

-x/1087 for X > 0 Determine the probability density function of the time to failure of an electronic component in copier (in hours) is f(x). Find the probability that the component lasts more than 1000 hours before failure. (Round the answer to two decimal places:) 0.0498 Find the probability that the component fails in the interval from 0 to 2000 hours. (Round the answer to four decimal places.) 0.2327 Find the probability that the component fails before 1000 hours. (Round the answer to four decimal places.) 0.6321 Determine the number of hours at which 10% of all components have failed. (Round the answer to the nearest integer.) 1105.36

Determine the cumulative distribution function for f (x) = e^(-x/2000) / 2000 where x is the time to failure of an electronic component In copier hours (x > 0) Use the cumulative distribution function determine the probability that component lasts more than 3500 hours before failure. Round your answer to three decimal places (e.g. 98.765)
