Hello all
The answer to this question outlines using a binomial distribution to estimate the proportion of drives working after 47 days. It then goes on to equate this estimate to the exponential distribution.
The solution quotes:
“Expressed in terms of the exponential parameter λ, p is:”
My question is how are these two equal? i.e. p=exp(-200λ).
In particular I am not clear why we start integrating at 200 rather than 0.
Thanks
Simon
