Answer:
0.2209 = 22.09% probability that in a randomly selected office hour, the number of student arrivals is 3.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the mean during an interval, so the Poisson distribution is used.
Poisson distribution:
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 interval.
A statistics professor finds that when she schedules an office hour for student help, an average of 3.3 students arrive.
This means that [tex]\mu = 3.3[/tex]
Find the probability that in a randomly selected office hour, the number of student arrivals is 3.
This is P(X = 3). So
[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 3) = \frac{e^{-3.3}*3.3^{3}}{(3)!} = 0.2209[/tex]
0.2209 = 22.09% probability that in a randomly selected office hour, the number of student arrivals is 3.
Help me please with this maths question thank you
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
A)
The opposite sides of a rectangle are equal. The width make this obvious because both of them are x.
B)
The lengths are not so obvious, but it is never the less true. The two sides are obvious and they are therefore true.
4x + 1 = 2x + 12 Subtract 1 from both sides.
- 1 -1
4x = 2x + 11 Subtract 2x from both sides
-2x -2x
2x = 11 Divide by 2
x = 11/2
x = 5.5
C)
P = L + L + w + w
P = 4(5.5) + 1 + 2(5.5) + 12 + 5.5 + 5.5
P = 22 + 1 + 11 + 12 + 11
P = 23 + 23 + 11
P = 57

Answer:
D is the answer
Step-by-step explanation:
plug the -2's in line 1 & 2 then 4 in 2 and 3
the 1&2 , and the 2 and 3 numbers have to match
Using the conditions for continuity, we find that the function D.) is continuous.
How to check if a function is continuous?A function f(x) is said to be continuous at a point x = a, in its domain if the following three conditions are satisfied:
f(a) exists (i.e. the value of f(a) is finite)the right-hand limit = left-hand limit, and both are finite.right-hand limit = left-hand limit = f(a)Since for -4 <= x < -2, -2 <= x < 4 and 4 <= x <= 8, the function f(x) is defined by straight lines , the function will be continuous for all x ≠ -2 and 4. Now for x = -2, 4, let us check all the three conditions:
A.
f(-2) = 0.5 * (-2)² = 2
left hand limit = -2 + 6 = 4
right hand limit = 0.5 * (-2)² = 2
Since, left hand limit is not equal to right hand limit, the function is not continuous at x = -2. No need to check further.
B.
f(-2) = 0.5 * (-2)² = 2
left hand limit = -2 -2 = -4
right hand limit = 0.5 * (-2)² = 2
Since, left hand limit is not equal to right hand limit, the function is not continuous at x = -2. No need to check further.
C.
f(-2) = 0.5 * (-2)² = 2
left hand limit = -2 + 4 = 2
right hand limit = 0.5 * (-2)² = 2
Since, left hand limit is not equal to right hand limit is equal to f(-2), the function is continuous at x = -2.
f(4) = 25 - 3*4 = 13
left hand limit = 0.5 * (4)² = 8
right hand limit = 25 - 3*4 = 13
Since, left hand limit is not equal to right hand limit, the function is not continuous at x = 4.
D.
f(-2) = 0.5 * (-2)² = 2
left hand limit = -2 + 4 = 2
right hand limit = 0.5 * (-2)² = 2
Since, left hand limit is not equal to right hand limit is equal to f(-2), the function is continuous at x = -2.
f(4) = 20 - 3*4 = 8
left hand limit = 0.5 * (4)² = 8
right hand limit = 20 - 3*4 = 8
Since, left hand limit is not equal to right hand limit is equal to f(-2), the function is continuous at x = 4.
Thus, the function is continuous.

A few people gather together to play a game in which one needs to roll 3 six-sided dice. One person notices that the sum of the number of spots on three dice comes up as 11 (the event E1) more often than it does 12 (the event E2) even though it looks like it should be even. This person argues as follows: E1 occurs in just six ways:
{(1,4,6),(2,3,6),(1,5,5),(2,4,5),(3,3,5),(3,4,4)}, and E2 occurs also in just six ways: {(1,5,6),(2,4,6),(3,3,6),(2,5,5),(4,4,4),(3,4,5)}.
Therefore E1 and E2 have the same probability P(E1) = P(E2). Why isn’t it?
Answer:
Yes, P(E1)=P(E2)
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that
Number of dice=3
Total outcomes of 1 die=6
Therefore,
Total number of outcomes =[tex]6^3=216[/tex]
E1={{(1,4,6),(2,3,6),(1,5,5),(2,4,5),(3,3,5),(3,4,4)}
E2={(1,5,6),(2,4,6),(3,3,6),(2,5,5),(4,4,4),(3,4,5)}
We have to show that E1 and E2 have the same probability P(E1) = P(E2).
Probability, [tex]P(E)=\frac{Favorable\;outcomes}{Total\;outcomes}[/tex]
Using the formula
[tex]P(E_1)=\frac{6}{216}[/tex]
[tex]P(E_1)=0.0278[/tex]
[tex]P(E_2)=\frac{6}{216}[/tex]
[tex]P(E_2)=0.0278[/tex]
Hence, P(E1)=P(E2)
Midwest Publishing publishes textbooks. The company uses an 800 number where people can call to ask questions about the textbooks and place orders. Currently, there are 2 representatives handling inquiries. Calls occurring when both lines are in use get a busy signal. Each representative can handle 12 calls per hour. The arrival rate is 20 calls per hour.
Required:
a. How many extension lines should be used if the company wants to handle 90% of the calls immediately?
b. What is the probability that a call will receive a busy signal if your recommendation in part (a) is used?
c. What percentage of calls receive a busy signal for the current telephone system with two extension lines?
Answer:
A. 18 calls
B. 0.9
C. 20
Step-by-step explanation:
Number of representatives=2,
Number of extension lines=2,
Average calls each representative can accommodate per hour = 15 calls,
Arrival rate per hour = 30 calls
(a) 90% of the arrival rate = 0.09 × 20 = 18 calls
To handle 18 calls immediately, 18 extension lines should be used
(b) Probability is given by number of possible outcomes ÷ number of total outcomes
Number of possible outcomes = 18, number of total outcomes = 20
Probability (call will receive busy signal) = 18/20 = 0.9
(c) For one extension line, numbers of calls to receive busy signal = 20 - 10 = 10 calls
Number of calls to receive busy signal for the current telephone system with two extension lines = 2 × 10 = 20 calls
First the store raised the price of a pot by 20%. Then they announced a 20% discount on the pot. Is the customer going to pay more or less for the pot now than before.
Answer:
less
Step-by-step explanation:
An increase of 20% makes the price 120% of the original price.
A discount of 20% makes the discounted price 80% of the previous price.
Original price: x
20% increase in price: 1.2 * x
20% discount over the raised price: 0.8 * 1.2 * x
Now we multiply the numbers in the last expression and compare the result with x.
0.8 * 1.2 * x = 0.96x
0.96 is less than x, so the customer pays less than the original price.

We deposit $12000 into an account carning 3 % interest compounded continuously, How many years will it take
for the account to grow to $16800? Round to 2 decimal places,
Answer:
The answer is 13.33 year
Step-by-step explanation:
P = $12000
Rate = 3%
Amount = $16800
so,
I = A-P
= $16800 - $12000
= $4800
So,
T = (I × 100)/P×R
= (4800×100)/P×R
= 480000/($12000×3)
= 480000/36000
= 480/36
= 13.33 year

Nina and Amy began arguing about who did better on their tests, but they couldn't decide who did better given that they took different tests. Nina took a test in English and earned a 71.8, and Amy took a test in Social Studies and earned a 60.7. Use the fact that all the students' test grades in the English class had a mean of 71.7 and a standard deviation of 11.7, and all the students' test grades in Social Studies had a mean of 60.6 and a standard deviation of 10.5 to answer the following questions.
a) Calculate the z-score for Nina's test grade.
b) Calculate the z-score for Amy's test grade.
c) Which person did relatively better?
i. Nina
ii. Amy
iii. They did equally well.
Answer:
a) [tex]Z = 0.0085[/tex]
b) [tex]Z = 0.0095[/tex]
c) ii. Amy
Step-by-step explanation:
Z-score:
In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
Question a:
Nina took a test in English and earned a 71.8. In the English class had a mean of 71.7 and a standard deviation of 11.7.
This means that [tex]X = 71.8, \mu = 71.7, \sigma = 11.7[/tex]
So
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{71.8 - 71.7}{11.7}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 0.0085[/tex]
Question b:
Amy took a test in Social Studies and earned a 60.7. Students' test grades in Social Studies had a mean of 60.6 and a standard deviation of 10.5.
This means that [tex]X = 60.7, \mu = 60.6, \sigma = 10.5[/tex]
So
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{60.7 - 60.6}{10.5}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 0.0095[/tex]
c) Which person did relatively better?
Amy had a higher z-score, so she did relatively better.

A number r divided by the difference between eighty-three and ten 22. The total of a number p and twelve, divided by eighteen 23. The product of a number c and three more than the sum of nine and twelve 24. The sum of a number y and ten, divided by the difference when a number x is decreased by five. I need to convert all of them into expressions. PLEASE HELP.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
19.
The numbers are m and n
Sum of m and n = m + n
Sum is multiplied by 91 = 91 x ( m + n )
20.
Let the number be = m
Six subtracted from the number = m - 6
41 times the difference = 41 x ( m - 6)
21.
Let the number be = r
Difference between 83 and 10 = 83 - 10 = 73
[tex]The \ number\ divided \ by\ the \ difference \ = \frac{r}{73}[/tex]
22.
Total of p and 23 = p + 12
[tex]Total \ divided \ by \ 18 = \frac{p + 12 }{18}[/tex]
23.
The product of c and 3 = 3c
Sum of 9 and 12 = 21
Product is more than Sum = 3c + 21
24.
Sum of y and 10 = y + 10
Number x decreased by 5 = x - 5
[tex]Sum \ divided \ by \ difference = \frac{ y + 10 }{x - 5}[/tex]
