Useful Life The useful lifetime of a product is modeled by the probability density function

f ( t ) =   0.4 e − 0.4 t where t is the time (in years), with 0   ≤ t <   ∞ . Find the mean and median useful lifetimes.

To determine

To calculate: The mean and median of the useful life time of a product modelled by the probability density f(t)=0.4e−0.4t function.

Explanation

Given information:

The useful lifetime of a product modelled by the probability density function f(t)=0.4e−0.4t where ‘t’ is the time in years with 0≤t≤∞.

Formula used:

If ‘f’ is the probability density function of a continuous random variable x over the interval [a,b], then the expected value or mean is given by;

μ=E(x)=∫abxf(x)dx

And, the median ‘x’ is the number m such that;

∫amf(x)dx=0.5

The formula for integration by parts is;

∫u⋅vdx=u∫vdx−∫dudx[∫vdx]dx

Calculation:

Consider given probability density function

f(t)=0.4e−0.4t;0≤t≤∞

Consider the primary equation

μ=E(t)=∫0∞tf(t)dt=∫0∞t×0.4e−0..4tdt=0.4∫0∞te−0.4tdt

Solve by integration by parts ∫u⋅vdx=u∫vdx−∫dudx[∫vdx]dx as here u=x and v=e−0.4t therefore;

μ=0.4∫0∞te−0.4tdt=0.4[t∫e−0
