The probability P, as a percent, that a certain computer keyboard in a public library will last more than t years can be approximated by P = 100e−1.2t. (a) What is the probability that the keyboard will last more than 2 years? Round to the nearest tenth. (b) After how many years will the probability of keyboard failure be 94%? Round to the nearest tenth.
