Suppose you receive a postcard from a good friend with a picture of the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco. The postcard is 3.5

inches high and 5.5 inches wide. The fine print on the postcard states that the scale of the picture is 1:19,600. Based on the scale, what's the actual length of the Golden Gate Bridge?

Based on the scale, the actual length of the Golden Gate Bridge is  68,600 inches.

<h3>What is the actual length of the Bridge?</h3>

A scale drawing is a reduced form in terms of dimensions of an original image / building / object. The scale drawing is usually reduced at a constant dimension. An example of a scale drawing is a map.

The scale of a drawing is usually written in this format -  length in the drawing, a colon (:), then the matching length on the original image. An example of a scale is 1 : 19,600. This scale means that 1 inch of the postcard represents 19.600 of the original Golden Gate Bridge.

Actual length of the Bridge = scale x length of the bridge in the postcard

19,600 x 3.5 = 68,600 inches

The time between arrivals of customers at the drive-up window of a bank follows an exponential probability distribution with a m
castortr0y [4]

Answer:

a) 50.34% probability that the arrival time between customers will be 7 minutes or less.

b) 24.42% probability that the arrival time between customers will be between 3 and 7 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponential distribution:

The exponential probability distribution, with mean m, is described by the following equation:

f(x) = \mu e^{-\mu x}

In which \mu = \frac{1}{m} is the decay parameter.

The probability that x is lower or equal to a is given by:

P(X \leq x) = \int\limits^a_0 {f(x)} \, dx

Which has the following solution:

P(X \leq x) = 1 - e^{-\mu x}

The probability of finding a value higher than x is:

P(X > x) = 1 - P(X \leq x) = 1 - (1 - e^{-\mu x}) = e^{-\mu x}

Mean of 10 minutes:

This means that m = 10, \mu = \frac{1}{10} = 0.1

A. What is the probability that the arrival time between customers will be 7 minutes or less?

P(X \leq x) = 1 - e^{-\mu x}

P(X \leq 7) = 1 - e^{-0.1*7} = 0.5034

50.34% probability that the arrival time between customers will be 7 minutes or less.

B. What is the probability that the arrival time between customers will be between 3 and 7 minutes?

P(3 \leq X \leq 7) = P(X \leq 7) - P(X \leq 3)

P(X \leq x) = 1 - e^{-\mu x}

P(X \leq 7) = 1 - e^{-0.1*7} = 0.5034

P(X \leq 3) = 1 - e^{-0.1*3} = 0.2592

P(3 \leq X \leq 7) = P(X \leq 7) - P(X \leq 3) = 0.5034 - 0.2592 = 0.2442

24.42% probability that the arrival time between customers will be between 3 and 7 minutes

Three pounds of fertilizer covers 900 feet.How many pound of fertilizer will cover 2,100 feet?
sveticcg [70]
To solve this problem, you can make a proportion:

3/900 = x/2100

In this case, the x represents the pounds that will be needed to cover 2,100 feet.

The first step is to cross multiply like this:

3 * 2100 = 900 * x

Now you can simply the equation.

6300 = 900x

Now you divide both sides by 900 to cancel it out.

7 = x

So, your answer is 7 pounds.
