At a specific point on a highway, vehicles arrive according to a Poisson process. Vehicles are counted in 12 second intervals, a

morpeh [17]

Answer: a) 4.6798, and b) 19.8%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

P(n) = $\dfrac{15}{120}=0.125$

As we know the poisson process, we get that

$P(n)=\dfrac{(\lambda t)^n\times e^{-\lambda t}}{n!}\\\\P(n=0)=0.125=\dfrac{(\lambda \times 14)^0\times e^{-14\lambda}}{0!}\\\\0.125=e^{-14\lambda}\\\\\ln 0.125=-14\lambda\\\\-2.079=-14\lambda\\\\\lambda=\dfrac{2.079}{14}\\\\0.1485=\lambda$

So, for exactly one car would be

P(n=1) is given by

$=\dfrac{(0.1485\times 14)^1\times e^{-0.1485\times 14}}{1!}\\\\=0.2599$

Hence, our required probability is 0.2599.

a. Approximate the number of these intervals in which exactly one car arrives

Number of these intervals in which exactly one car arrives is given by

$0.2599\times 18=4.6798$

We will find the traffic flow q such that

$P(0)=e^{\frac{-qt}{3600}}\\\\0.125=e^{\frac{-18q}{3600}}\\\\0.125=e^{-0.005q}\\\\\ln 0.125=-0.005q\\\\-2.079=-0.005q\\\\q=\dfrac{-2.079}{-0.005}=415.88\ veh/hr$

b. Estimate the percentage of time headways that will be 14 seconds or greater.

so, it becomes,

$P(h\geq 14)=e^{\frac{-qt}{3600}}\\\\P(h\geq 14)=e^{\frac{-415.88\times 14}{3600}}\\\\P(h\geq 14)=0.198\\\\P(h\geq 14)=19.8\%$

Hence, a) 4.6798, and b) 19.8%.

Which glide reflection describes the mapping triangle ABC triangleDEF?

ZanzabumX [31]

In order to visualize the transformations, we must execute the transformation in the options

The first transformation would shift triangle ABC 3 units to the left and reflect it across x = 4. This will not map ABC unto DEF.

The second transformation would shift triangle ABC 7 units down and reflect it across x =4. This will map ABC unto DEF,

So, the answer is the second option.

A bag contains 6 red marbles, 2 blue marbles, and 1 green marble. What is the

SSSSS [86.1K]

We have 1 green and 8 non-green.

We get a probability of 8/9 of a non-green for the first marble and a probably of 7/8 for the second being non green, so

p = (8/9)*(7/8) = 7/9

Answer: 7/9
