Question

How is the e - lambda figured out as 0.00248?

Answer 1

Explanation:

e^-6 = 1/e^6 = about 0.00248

Answer 2

The value of
`e^(-6) = 0.00248` to 5 decimal places

Using the expression given;

• 
  `e^(-6)`

'e' is a numerical constant in mathematics called the Euler's number . The value of the constant 'e' is ;

• e = 2.718281....

The expression given just requires that the eulers number be raised to the power of -6, which is ;

• 
  `2.718281^(-6)` which would give the value 0.00248
