A radioactive material emits [math]\alpha[/math]-particles at a rate described by the density function
[[math]]
f(t) = .1e^{-.1t}\ .
[[/math]]
Find the probability that a particle is emitted in the first 10 seconds, given that
- no particle is emitted in the first second.
- no particle is emitted in the first 5 seconds.
- a particle is emitted in the first 3 seconds.
- a particle is emitted in the first 20 seconds.
