The time it takes a worker on an assembly line to complete a task is exponentially distributed with a mean of 8 minutes. a. What is the probability density function for the time it takes to complete the task? b. What is the probability that it will take a worker less than 4 minutes to complete the task? c. What is the probability that it will take a worker between 6 and 10 minutes to complete the task?

x= -3 and

step-by-step explanation:

to find the roots of a cubic, use division or factoring to find the factors then set equal to 0. as this is a difference of cubes, it factors into

where a is the cube root of .

here   this is 27 and the cube root of 27 is 3. so we write using the form:

.

set each factor to 0 and solve for x.

x-3=0

x=3

the quadratic expression does not factor and must be solved using the quadratic formula.

where a = 1, b=3, and c=9

this cubic has two complex roots.
