Speedy Oil provides a single-server automobile oil change and lubrication service. Customers provide an arrival rate of 2.5 cars per hour. The service rate is 5 cars per hour. Assume that arrivals follow a Poisson probability distribution and that service times follow an exponential probability distribution. What is the average number of cars in the system

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

the average number of car(s) in the system is 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Arrival rate; λ = 2.5 cars per hour

Service time; μ = 5 cars per hour

Since Arrivals follows Poisson probability distribution and service times follows exponential probability distribution.

Lq = λ² / [ μ( μ - λ ) ]

we substitute

Lq = (2.5)² / [ 5( 5 - 2.5 ) ]

Lq = 6.25 / [ 5 × 2.5 ]

Lq = 6.25 / 12.5

Lq = 0.5

Now, to get the average number of cars in the system, we say;

L = Lq + ( λ / μ )

we substitute

L = 0.5 + ( 2.5 / 5 )

L = 0.5 + 0.5

L = 1

Therefore, the average number of car(s) in the system is 1

It takes Ricky, traveling at 24 mph, 45 minutes longer to go a certain distance than it takes Maria traveling at 51 mph, Find the distance traveled.

Answers

Answer:

85 mi

Step-by-step explanation:

Let d = the distance in miles traveled

Let M = the time in hours for Maria to travel d miles

[tex]m+\frac{3}{4} =[/tex] time in hours for Ricky to travel d miles

(Note that [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] hrs = 45 min)

----------------------

Maria's equation:

d = 51m

Ricky's equation:

d = 24 · [tex](m+\frac{3}{4} )[/tex]

----------------------

Substitution:

51m = 24 · [tex](m+\frac{3}{4} )[/tex]

51m = 24m + 45

6m = 10

m = [tex]\frac{5}{3}[/tex]

----------------------

d = 51m

d = 51 · [tex](\frac{5}{3})[/tex]

d = 85

----------------------

The distance traveled is 85 mi

If it takes Ricky, traveling at 24 mph, 45 minutes longer to go a certain distance than it takes Maria traveling at 51 mph, the distance traveled is 85 miles

Speed and distances

Speed is the ratio of distance traveled to time taken. Mathematically:

Distance = Speed/Time

According to the given question:

Let d be the distance in miles traveledLet M be the time in hours for Maria to travel d milesLet the required time in hours for Ricky to travel be d miles

Set up the Maria equation:

d = 51m

Set up Ricky's equation:

d = 24 · (m+3/4)

Substitute

51m = 24 · (m+3/4)

51m = 24m + 45

6m = 10

m = 5/3

Determine the required distance

d = 51m

d = 51 · 5/3

d = 85

Hence the distance traveled is 85 mile

Find the length of an arc of a circle with a 8-cm radius associated with a central angle of 240 degrees. Give your answer in exact and approximate form to the nearest hundredth. Show and explain your work

Answers

Answer:

33.51 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

240/360 = 2/3 (Arc length is 2/3 of the total circumference)

C = 2[tex]\pi[/tex]r             ( Calculate the total circumference)    

C = 2(8)[tex]\pi[/tex]

C = 50.265

2/3(50.265)      (Take 2/3 of the circumference. times 2 divide by 3)

33.51

Use a calculator and leave the answer to C and then multiply and divide. You get a more precise answer.

The exact arc length is [tex]\frac{32\pi}{3}[/tex] radians.

The arc length in approximate form is 33.49 radians.

What is the formula for arc length?

[tex]s = r\times \theta[/tex]

where r is the radius of the circle and [tex]\theta[/tex] is the central angle in radians.

How to convert angle from degrees to radians?

Radians = Degrees ×[tex]\frac{\pi}{180^{\circ}}[/tex]

For given question,

We have been given a circle with a 8-cm radius associated with a central angle of 240 degrees.

[tex]r=8~cm,~\theta=240^{\circ}[/tex]

First we convert angle in radians.

[tex]\theta=240^{\circ}\\\\\theta=240^{\circ} \times \frac{\pi}{180^{\circ}}\\\\ \theta=\frac{4\pi}{3}[/tex]

Using the formula of the arc length,

[tex]s=8\times \frac{4\pi}{3} \\\\s=\frac{32\pi}{3}[/tex]

The exact answer of the arc length is [tex]s=\frac{32\pi}{3}[/tex]

Substitute the value of [tex]\pi = 3.14[/tex]

So, the arc length would be,

[tex]\Rightarrow s=\frac{32\times \pi}{3}\\\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{32\times 3.14}{3}\\\\\Rightarrow s=33.49[/tex]radians

Therefore, the exact arc length is [tex]\frac{32\pi}{3}[/tex] radians.

the arc length in approximate form is 33.49 radians.

1 liter of acid4 liters of water

You got the first question correct, but the second one is wrong. The two values must add up to 5.

===================================================

Explanation:

We're told that 20% of this solution is acid. We have 5 liters total, so

20% of 5 = 0.20*5 = 1

Meaning there's 1 liter of pure acid in this solution.

The remaining 5-1 = 4 liters of the solution is water

Or you could note that if 20% is pure acid, then the remaining 80% is water

80% of 5 = 0.80*5 = 4

------------------

Another approach is to realize that 20% is the same as the fraction 1/5

So if 1/5 of the mix is pure acid, and we have 5 liters of the solution, then we must have 1 liter of pure acid

(1 liter of pure acid)/(5 liters of solution) = 1/5 = 20% acid solution

During three consecutive years, an employers salary is increased by 15%. If after three years his salary is 45,400, what was his salary before the raises?

Answers

Answer:

$29,851.24

Step-by-step explanation:

The salary started as x.

Each year it was increased 15%.

A full amount is 100% of the amount. When you add 15% to the amount, you now have 115% of the amount.

115% as a decimal is 1.15; that means that to increase an amount by 15%, multiply the amount by 1.15

For example, let's say you want to know what is a 15% increase on 100. Start with 100. 15% of 100 is 15, so if you add 15% to 100 you expect to get 115.

Now multiply 1.15 by 100. You also get 115 showing you that multiplying a number by 1.15 is the same as adding 15%.

Now let's get back to our problem.

The salary started as x.

Each year, the increase in salary was 15% of the previous salary.

After 1 year the salary is 1.15x.

After 2 years, the salary is 1.15(1.15x).

After 3 years, the salary is 1.15(1.15(1.15x)) = (1.15^3)x

We are told that the salary became $45,400 after the three 15% increases, so

(1.15)^3 * x = 45,400

Multiply out 1.15^3 as 1/15 * 1.15 * 1.15 = 1.520875

1.520875x = 45,400

Divide both sides by 1.520875.

x = 45,400/1.520875

x = 29,851.24

870,640 rounded to the nearest ten thousand

Answers

Answer: 870,000

Step-by-step explanation: First find the digit in the rounding place

which in this case is the 7 in the ten thousands place.

Next, we look at the digit to the right of the 7, which is 0.

According to the rules of rounding, if the digit to the right

of the rounding place is less than 5, we round down.

So the 7 in the rounding place stays the same

and all digits to the right of the become 0.

So 870,640 rounded to the nearest ten thousand is 870,000.

A film distribution manager calculates that 9% of the films released are flops. If the manager is right, what is the probability that the proportion of flops in a sample of 469 released films would be greater than 6%

Answers

Answer:

0.9884 = 98.84% probability that the proportion of flops in a sample of 469 released films would be greater than 6%.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

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.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean [tex]\mu = p[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}[/tex]

A film distribution manager calculates that 9% of the films released are flops.

This means that [tex]p = 0.09[/tex]

Sample of 469

This means that [tex]n = 469[/tex]

Mean and standard deviation:

[tex]\mu = p = 0.09[/tex]

[tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}} = \sqrt{\frac{0.09*0.91}{469}} = 0.0132[/tex]

What is the probability that the proportion of flops in a sample of 469 released films would be greater than 6%?

1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 0.06. So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

By the Central Limit Theorem

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{0.06 - 0.09}{0.0132}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -2.27[/tex]

[tex]Z = -2.27[/tex] has a p-value of 0.0116

1 - 0.0116 = 0.9884

0.9884 = 98.84% probability that the proportion of flops in a sample of 469 released films would be greater than 6%.

[tex] \frac{dv}{dt} = 4\pi \: r {}^{2} [/tex] × dr/dt

r=8 , dv/dt = 3

dv/dt = 4pi (8)^2 ×3 = 768pi

Answer:

768 pi in^3/min

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of cone=1/3 pi×r^2×h

Differentiating this gives:

dV/dt=1/3×pi×2r dr/dt×h+1/3×pi×r^2×dh/dt

We are given the following:

dr/dt = 3 in./min.

h=4r when r = 8 inches

If h=4r then dh/dt=4dr/dt=4(3 in/min)=12 in/min

If h=4r and r=8 in, then h=4(8)=32 in for that particular time.

Plug in:

dV/dt=1/3×pi×2r dr/dt×h+1/3×pi×r^2×dh/dt

dV/dt=1/3×pi×2(8)(3)×32+1/3×pi×(8)^2×12

dV/dt=pi×2(8)(32)+pi×(8)^2(4)

dV/dt=pi(256×2)+pi(64×4)

dV/dt=pi(512)+pi(256)

dV/dt=pi(768)

dV/dt=768pi

dV/dt=768/pi in^3/min

y-2x-1=0 for -2 ≤ x ≤ 4 . can someone help me graph a straight line for this pls ?​

Answers

Answer: See the graph below.

It is a straight line segment with endpoints (-2,-3) and (4,9).

===============================================================

Explanation:

We're told that x is between -2 and 4, including both endpoints.

Let's see what y is when we plug in x = -2

y-2x-1 = 0

y-2(-2)-1 = 0

y+4-1 = 0

y+3 = 0

y = -3

So x = -2 pairs up with y = -3. The point (x,y) = (-2,-3) is on the line. This is the left most endpoint.

Repeat for x = 4 to find what y must be

y-2x-1 = 0

y-2(4)-1 = 0

y-8-1 = 0

y-9 = 0

y = 9

Therefore the point (x,y) = (4,9) is also on the line. It's the right most endpoint

Once we have the two points, we can form the straight line. Simply connect the endpoints mentioned as shown below. We don't extend the line infinitely outwards in both directions because [tex]-2 \le x \le 4[/tex] meaning x cannot be smaller than -2, and x cannot be greater than 4 either.

Side note: The given equation is the same as y = 2x+1. It has slope 2 and y intercept 1.

[tex]\sf P(white\:marble\:from\:Jar\:2)=\dfrac{20}{80}=\dfrac{1}{4}[/tex]

As the events are independent (i.e. drawing a marble from one jar does not influence or affect drawing a marble from the other jar), we can use the independent probability formula:

[tex]\sf P(A\:and\:B)=P(A) \cdot P(B)[/tex]
