The Acme Super light bulb is known to have a useful life
described by the density function
[[math]]
f(t) = .01e^{-.01t}\ ,
[[/math]]
where time [math]t[/math] is measured in hours.
- Find the failure rate of this bulb (see Exercise \ref{sec 2.2}.).
- Find the reliability of this bulb after 20 hours.
- Given that it lasts 20 hours, find the probability that the bulb lasts another 20 hours.
- Find the probability that the bulb burns out in the forty-first hour, given that it lasts 40 hours.
