The arrival of customers at a service desk follows a Poisson distribution. If they arrive at a rate of two every five minutes, what is the probability that no customers arrive in a five-minute period? ​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

13.53% probability that no customers arrive in a five-minute period

Step-by-step explanation:

In a Poisson distribution, the probability that X represents the number of successes of a random variable is given by the following formula:

[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]

In which

x is the number of sucesses

e = 2.71828 is the Euler number

[tex]\mu[/tex] is the mean in the given time interval.

They arrive at a rate of two every five minutes

This means that [tex]\mu = 2[/tex]

What is the probability that no customers arrive in a five-minute period?

This is P(X = 0).

[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = \frac{e^{-2}*2^{0}}{(0)!} = 0.1353[/tex]

13.53% probability that no customers arrive in a five-minute period

uppose the correlation between two variables, math attitude (x) and math achievement (y) was found to be .78. Based on this statistic, we know that the proportion of the variability seen in math achievement that can be predicted by math attitude is:

Answers

Answer:

The proportion of the variability seen in math achievement that can be predicted by math attitude is 0.78, the same value as the correlation coefficient.

Step-by-step explanation:

The correlation coefficient r between this two variables is found to be 0.78.

This coefficient can be calculated as:

[tex]r=\dfrac{SSY'}{SSY}[/tex]

where SSY' is the sum of the squares deviation from the mean for the predicted value and SSY is the sum of the squares deviation from the mean for the criterion variable.

Then, the value of the coefficient r is giving the proportion of the variability seen in the criterion value Y that can be explained by the predictor variable X.

Answer:

r=SSY'/SSY

2 +4x−32 and g(x)=x-4g(x)=x−4, find (f+g)(x)(f+g)(x) and express the result in standard form.

Answers

Answer:

So your question was not very clear but with (f+g) im guessing thats f(x)+g(x)

So first we add them x^2+4x-32   +   x-4 then we will get x^2 + 5x - 36

Then we need to multiply both

(x^2+5x-36)(x^2+5x-36)

=

(x^2+5x-36)^2

The only reason im not solving it out is because it yields large numbers and you might not understand.

Which geometric series converges?

Answers

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Geometric series converge if |r| < 1.

A) r = 3

B) r = 1/2

C) r = -4

D) r = 2

Only B has |r| < 1.

The converging sequence of geometric progression is given by the relation A = 1 + 1/2 + 1/4 + 1/8 ... where the common ratio r = 1/2

What is Geometric Progression?

A geometric progression is a sequence in which each term is derived by multiplying or dividing the preceding term by a fixed number called the common ratio.

The nth term of a GP is aₙ = arⁿ⁻¹

The general form of a GP is a, ar, ar2, ar3 and so on

Sum of first n terms of a GP is Sₙ = a(rⁿ-1) / ( r - 1 )

Given data ,

Let the geometric progression be represented as A

Now , the value of A is

A = 1 + 1/2 + 1/4 + 1/8 ...

Now , the common ratio r of the GP is

r = second term / first term

On simplifying , we get

r = ( 1/2 ) / 1

r = 1/2

So , when | r | < 1 , the GP is a converging series

Hence , the GP is converging series

Step-by-step explanation:

A company services home air conditioners. It is known that times for service calls follow a normal distribution with a mean of 75 minutes and a standard deviation of 15 minutes. A random sample of twelve service calls is taken. What is the probability that exactly eight of them take more than 93.6 minutes

Answers

Answer:

The probability that exactly eight of them take more than 93.6 minutes is 5.6015 [tex]\times 10^{-6}[/tex] .

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that it is known that times for service calls follow a normal distribution with a mean of 75 minutes and a standard deviation of 15 minutes.

A random sample of twelve service calls is taken.

So, firstly we will find the probability that service calls take more than 93.6 minutes.

Let X = times for service calls.

So, X ~ Normal([tex]\mu=75,\sigma^{2} =15^{2}[/tex])

The z-score probability distribution for the normal distribution is given by;

                              Z  =  [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]  ~ N(0,1)

where, [tex]\mu[/tex] = mean time = 75 minutes

           [tex]\sigma[/tex] = standard deviation = 15 minutes

Now, the probability that service calls take more than 93.6 minutes is given by = P(X > 93.6 minutes)

       P(X > 93.6 min) = P( [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex] > [tex]\frac{93.6-75}{15}[/tex] ) = P(Z > 1.24) = 1 - P(Z [tex]\leq[/tex] 1.24)

                                                                = 1 - 0.8925 = 0.1075

The above probability is calculated by looking at the value of x = 1.24 in the z table which has an area of 0.8925.

Now, we will use the binomial distribution to find the probability that exactly eight of them take more than 93.6 minutes, that is;

[tex]P(Y = y) = \binom{n}{r}\times p^{r} \times (1-p)^{n-r} ; y = 0,1,2,3,.........[/tex]

where, n = number of trials (samples) taken = 12 service calls

            r = number of success = exactly 8

            p = probability of success which in our question is probability that

                   it takes more than 93.6 minutes, i.e. p = 0.1075.

Let Y = Number of service calls which takes more than 93.6 minutes

So, Y ~ Binom(n = 12, p = 0.1075)

Now, the probability that exactly eight of them take more than 93.6 minutes is given by = P(Y = 8)

               P(Y = 8)  =  [tex]\binom{12}{8}\times 0.1075^{8} \times (1-0.1075)^{12-8}[/tex]

                             =  [tex]495 \times 0.1075^{8} \times 0.8925^{4}[/tex]

                             =  5.6015 [tex]\times 10^{-6}[/tex] .

Which of the following sets would have a graph with an open circle on 5 and a ray pointing right on the number line?

Answers

Answer: Choice C  [tex]\{x | x \in \mathbb{R}, \ x > 5 \}[/tex]

The open circle means we do not include the endpoint, hence the use of a greater than symbol. If we were to include the endpoint, then we'd have greater than or equal to. We can rule out choice B due to this reasoning.

The ray pointing to the right indicates we are talking about x values larger than 5, so we can rule out choice A and conclude the answer is C.

Martin wants to use coordinate geometry to prove that the opposite sides of
a rectangle are congruent. He places parallelogram ABCD in the coordinate
plane so that A is (0,0), B is (a,0), Cis (a, b), and Dis (0, b).
What formula can he use to determine the distance from point D to point A?

Answers

Answer:

Option (B)

Step-by-step explanation:

Coordinates of the vertices of the rectangle were A(0, 0), B(a, 0), C(a, b) and D(0, b)

Formula to determine the distance between two points with the vertices (x, y) and (x', y') is,

d = [tex]\sqrt{(x-x')^2+(y-y')^2}[/tex]

For the length of AD,

AD = [tex]\sqrt{(0-0)^2+(b-0)^2}[/tex]

     = [tex]\sqrt{b^2}[/tex]

     = b

Therefore, Option (B) will be the answer.

Na figura abaixo estão representadas cinco ruas do bairro onde moram João, Marcos, Pedro, Vitor e Samuel. A localização da casa de cada menino é identificada pela inicial de seu nome. Na esquina das ruas A e D fica a escola onde todos estudam. Sabe-se que as ruas A, B e C são paralelas e que todos os meninos vão a pé para a escola, sempre pelo caminho mais curto. Se Samuel caminha 100 m até a escola, Vitor caminha 260 m, João caminha 180 m e Marcos, 270 m, qual é a distância, em metros, que Pedro percorre de sua casa até a escola?


280m
300m
340m
460m
320m

Answers

Answer:

340 m  

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume the figure looks like the one below.

We have three parallel lines cut by two transversals.

1. Lengths of segments

(a) Segment VS

If Vitor walks 260 m,  

VS + SE = 260

VS + 100 = 260

VS = 260 - 100 = 160 m

(b) Segment MJ

If Marcos walks 270 m,  

MJ + JE = 270

VS + 180 = 270

VS = 270 - 180 = 90 m

(c) Segment PV

The segments on the transversals are proportional.

[tex]\begin{array}{rcl}\dfrac{x}{90} & = & \dfrac{160}{180} \\\\x & = & 90 \times \left (\dfrac{160}{180}\right )\\\\& = &\textbf{80 m}\\\end{array}\\\textbf{PV = 80 m}[/tex]

2. Distance travelled by Pedro

Distance = PV + VS + SE = 80 m + 160 m + 100 m = 340 m

Pedro walks 340 m to school.

Find the equation of the line through the points (-3,-3) and (2,-1) using point-slope form. Then rewrite the
equation in slope-intercept form.

Answers

Answer: See below

Step-by-step explanation:

The point-slope equation is y-y₁=m(x-x₁). Since we don't know our slope, we can use the formula [tex]m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }[/tex] to find the slope. All we have to do is use the coordinate we were given and plug it into the formula.

[tex]m=\frac{-1-(-3)}{2-(-3)} =\frac{2}{5}[/tex]

Now that we have the slope, we can fill out the point-slope equation.

y-(-3)=2/5(x-(-3))

y+6=2/5(x+3)

This is the point-slope form.

Now, we can distribute and solve to get slope-intercept form.

y+6=2/5x+6/5

y=2/5x-24/5

Step-by-step explanation:

The given data is expressed as

1204, 1206, 1345, 1306, 1207, 1078, 1357, 1232, 1228, 1302, 1189, 1177, 1083, 1094, 1326, 1071, 1427, 1348, 1420, 1253, 1270

The number of items in the data, n is 21. The lowest value is 1071 while the highest value is 1427. The convenient starting point would be 1070.5 and the convenient ending point would be 1427.5

The number of class intervals is

√n = √21 = 4.5

Approximately 5

The width of each class interval is

(1427.5 - 1070.5)/5 = 72

The end of each class interval would be

1070.5 + 72 = 1142.5

1142.5 + 72 = 1214.5

1214.5 + 72 = 1286.5

1286.5 + 72 = 1358.5

1358.5 + 72 = 1430.5

The frequency for the fifth class, that is between 1358.5 to 1430.5 would be 2
