x:14 = 7:8

x:14 = x/14

7:8 = 7/8

x/14 = 7/8

Multiply the numerator of the 1st ratio with the denominator of the 2nd.

And multiply the numerator of the 2nd ratio with the denominator of the 1st.

Doing so, we get -

x * 8 = 7 * 14

So, 8x = 7 * 14

8x = 98

We divide 98 by 8 (transposition method)

x = 98/8

Therefore, x = 12.25

The probability of a customer arrival at a grocery service counter in any one second is equal to 0.3. Assume that customers arri
Svetllana [295]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the probability of a customer arrival at a grocery service counter in any one second is equal to 0.3

Assume that customers arrive in a random stream, so an arrival in any one second is independent of all others.

i.e. X the no of customers arriving is binomial with p = 0.3 and q = 1-0.3 =0.7

a) the probability that the first arrival will occur during the third one-second interval.

= Prob that customer did not arrive in first 2 seconds * prob customer arrive in 3rd sec

= 0.7^2 (0.3)\\= 0.147

b)  the probability that the first arrival will not occur until at least the third one-second interval.

Prob that customer did not arrive in first two seconds *(Prob customer arrives in 3rd or 4th or 5th.....)

=(0.7^2)[0.3+0.7*0.3+0.7^2*0.3+....)\\

The term inside bracket is a geometric infinite progression with common ratio - 0.7 <1

Hence the series converges

Prob =0.7^2 *\frac{0.3}{1-0.7} \\=0.49

The variable that cannot be illustrated by a stem-and-leaf plot is C. Number of doctor visits during the past year.

<h3>What is a stem and leaf plot?</h3>

It can be inferred that a stem and leaf plot simply means the technique that is used to classify continuous or discrete variables.

In this case, the variable that cannot be illustrated by a stem-and-leaf plot is the number of doctor visits during the past year. This is because it's an ordinal variable.
