home security service. This private home security service guarantees to either dispatch one of their own five guards immediately if one of their customers sends in an alarm or, in the case that all five guards are responding to other calls, direct the alarm to the local police. The company receives 12 calls per hour, evenly distributed over the course of the day. The local police charges the home security company $500 for every call that the police responds to. It takes a guard, on average, 90 minutes to respond to an alarm. a. What fraction of the time are incoming alarms directed to the police? b. How much does the home security company have to pay the local police every month?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a.

The fraction of the time is incoming alarms directed to the police is 74.02%

b.

The home security company has to pay $3,197,665 the local police every month.

Step-by-step explanation:

As per the given data

Numbers of guards = 5 guards

Calls received per hour = 12 calls per hour

Activity time = 90 minutes

First, calculate the inter-arrival time

Inter-arrival time = Minutes in an hour / Numbers of calls received per hour = 60 minutes per hour / 12 calls per hour = 5 minutes

a.

First, calculate the ratio of activity time to inter-arrival time

Ratio = Activity time / Inter-arrival time = 90 minutes / 5 minutses = 18

Now calculate the probability of all 5 servers are busy using ratio of activity time to inter-arrival time

Probability = [tex]P_{Servers}[/tex] ( ratio )

Probability = [tex]P_{5}[/tex] ( 18 )

Probability = 0.7402

Probability = 74.02%

Hence the probability of incoming calls directed to the police is 74.02%

b.

First, calculate the loss of customers

Loss of customers = Probability x ( 1 / Servers )

Loss of customers = 74.02% x ( 1 / 5 )

Loss of customers = 0.7402 x 0.20

Loss of customers = 0.14804 per minute

Loss of customers = 0.14804 per minute x 24 x 60 x 30 = 6,395.33 calls per month

Now calculate the total loss

Total loss =  6,395.33 calls x $500

Total loss = $3,197,665

Answer:

[tex]3x^5+6x^4+12x^3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

[tex]f(x) = 3x^3+ 6x^2+ 12x[/tex]

and

[tex]g(x)=x^2[/tex]

We need to find the product of f(x) and g(x). SO,

[tex]f(x)\times g(x)=(3x^3+ 6x^2+ 12x)\times (x^2)\\\\=3x^3\times x^2+6x^2\times x^2+12x\times x^2\\\\=3x^5+6x^4+12x^3[/tex]

Hence, the correct option is (d).

why is angle 3 congruent to angle
explain why​

Answers

Answer:

Angle 3 is = to angle 2 because:

Angle 3 & angle 7 are corresponding angles, meaning they have the same measure.

Angle 7 & angle 2 are vertical angles, meaning they also have the same measure.

Therefore, if angle 7 is equal to angle 3, then angle 2 must also be equal to angle 3.

A developer has 24.5 acres of land. She buys an adjacent plot of land and increases the total
acreage she owns by 20%. Circle the numbers that make the statements true.

Answers

Answer:

The developer bought 4.9 acres of land, increasing its property to 29.4 acres.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a developer has 24.5 acres of land, and she buys an adjacent plot of land and increases the total acreage she owns by 20%, to determine the amount of acres she bought and the total acres she now owns, the following calculations must be done:

24.5 x 1.2 = 29.4

24.5 x 0.2 = 4.9

Thus, the developer bought 4.9 acres of land, increasing its property to 29.4 acres.

Find the area enclosed by the curve r=2 sin(0) + 3 sin(90).

Answers

If the 0's are indeed zeroes, then it would appear that you're using degrees, so that the equation

r(θ) = 2 sin(0°) + 3 sin(90°)

describes a circle r = 3 (since sin(0°) = 0 and sin(90°) = 1). In this case, the area would simply be π r ² = 9π.

But I suspect you meant to use θ, so the curve has the far more interesting equation,

r(θ) = 2 sin(θ) + 3 sin(9θ)

Since sin(9θ) has a period of 2π/9 and sin(θ) has a period of 2π, their sum has a period of 2π. (That is, 2π times the LCM of 1 and 1/9, which is 1.) But we observe r(θ) is odd, since

r(-θ) = 2 sin(-θ) + 3 sin(-9θ)

… = -2 sin(θ) - 3 sin(9θ)

… = - r(θ)

which tells us that the curve closes itself over a half-period. So the area bounded by the curve is given by the integral,

[tex]\displaystyle\int_0^\pi\int_0^{r(\theta)}r\,\mathrm dr\,\mathrm d\theta[/tex]

If you're not familiar with double integrals yet, all you need to know is that this reduces to the area formula you may/should be familiar with,

[tex]\displaystyle\frac12\int_0^\pi r(\theta)^2\,\mathrm d\theta[/tex]

Compute the integral:

[tex]=\displaystyle\frac12\int_0^\pi(2\sin(\theta)+3\sin(9\theta))^2\,\mathrm d\theta[/tex]

[tex]=\displaystyle\frac12\int_0^\pi(4\sin^2(\theta)+12\sin(\theta)\sin(9\theta)+9\sin^2(9\theta))\,\mathrm d\theta[/tex]

Apply some identities:

sin²(θ) = (1 - cos(2θ)) / 2

sin(θ) sin(9θ) = (cos(9θ - θ) - cos(9θ + θ)) / 2 = (cos(8θ) - cos(10θ)) / 2

sin²(9θ) = (1 - cos(18θ)) / 2

[tex]=\displaystyle\frac14\int_0^\pi(4(1-\cos(2\theta))+12(\cos(8\theta)-\cos(10\theta))+9(1-\cos(18\theta))\,\mathrm d\theta[/tex]

[tex]=\displaystyle\frac14\int_0^\pi(13 - 4\cos(2\theta) + 12\cos(8\theta) - 12\cos(10\theta) - 9\cos(18\theta))\,\mathrm d\theta[/tex]

[tex]=\dfrac14 \left(13\theta-2\sin(2\theta)+\dfrac32\sin(8\theta)-\dfrac65\sin(10\theta)-\dfrac12\sin(18\theta)\right)\bigg|_0^\pi[/tex]

[tex]=\dfrac1{40} \left(130\theta-20\sin(2\theta)+15\sin(8\theta)-12\sin(10\theta)-5\sin(18\theta)\right)\bigg|_0^\pi[/tex]

[tex]=\dfrac{130\pi-20\sin(2\pi)+15\sin(8\pi)-12\sin(10\pi)-5\sin(18\pi)}{40}[/tex]

5 Probability

5.1 Probabilities

Probabilities are used to describe how likely or unlikely it is that something will happen.

Weather forecasters often talk about how likely it is to rain, or perhaps snow, in particular

parts of the country.

Worked Example 1

(a) When you roll a dice, which number are you most likely to get?

(b) If you rolled a dice 600 times how my sixes would you expect to get?

(c) Would you expect to get the same number of ones?

Solution

(a) You are equally likely to get any of the six numbers.

(b) You would expect to get a six in about 1

6

of the throws, so 100 sixes.

(c) Yes, in fact you would expect to get about 100 of each number.

Worked Example 2

Use one of the following to describe each one of the statements (a) to (d).

Certain

Very likely

Likely

Unlikely

Very unlikely

Impossible

(a) It will snow tomorrow.

(b) It will rain tomorrow.

(c) You win a car in a competition tomorrow.

(d) You are late for school tomorrow.

Solution

(a) Very unlikely for most places in Britain, especially in summer.

(b) Likely or Very likely in Britain in winter.

(c) Very unlikely if you have entered the competition. Impossible if you have not

entered the competition.

(d) Very unlikely, unless the school bus breaks down.
