A new diner opens on our street. It will be open 24 hours a day, seven days a week. It is assumed that the inter-arrival times b

etween customers will be i.i.d.(independent and identically distributed) exponential with mean 10 minutes. Approximate the probability that the 120th customer will arrive after the first 21 hours of operation. Enter your answer to 4 decimal places.

Answer:

0.2912

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Duration new diner will be opened is24 hours a day. It is assumed that the Inter arrival times between customers will be i.i.d exponential with mean 10 minutes

A collection of random variables is independent and identically distributed (i.i.d) if each random variable has the same probability distribution as the others and all are mutually independent.

Expected time for 120 customers = 120 ×10 = 1200 minutes

Standard deviation = \sqrt{120*10^{2} } = 109.5445

P(It takes more than 21 hours) = 21 × 60 =1260 minutes

Probability = P(X > 1260) = P(Z > ((1260-1200)109.5445)

P(X > 1260) = P(Z > (60/109.5445)

P(X > 1260) = P(Z>0.55)

P(X > 1260) = 1 - P(Z<0.55) = 1 - 0.7088 = 0.2912

The probability that the 120th customer will arrive after the first 21 hours of operation is 0.2912

A person standing 154 feet from the base of a church observed the angle of elevation to the church's steeple to be 25∘. How tall
Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

71.764  feet

Step-by-step explanation:

See attached the rough sketch for your reference

Step one;

Given data

The angle of elevation= 25°

From the triangular diagram, we can see that the height of the church is the opposite, while the distance of the person from the church is the adjacent

Step two:

Applying SOH CAH TOA

tan∅= opp/adj

tan 25= opp/154

0.466= opp/154

cross multiply

0.466*154= opp

opp= height of church = 71.764  feet

Solve the triangle.
saw5 [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

because <u>c</u> is shorter than<u> a</u> we know C is a smaller angle than A

so the first choice is out.

use the law of cosines to find b

b^{2} = a^{2} +c^{2} -2*a*c*cos(B)

b^{2} =1681+400-1326.787871

b^{2}= 754.21219

b= \sqrt{754.21219}

b= 27.46292

so the last choice looks good

Answer:

  x = 10 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratios of corresponding sides are the same, so we have ...

  x/8 = 8/6

  x = 8·(8/6) = 64/6

  x = 10 2/3
