y = 8 -2x

x + 2 (8 - 2x) = 1

x + 16 - 4x = 1

x - 4x = -15

-3x = -15

x = 5

If x = 5, then we can substitute in...

5 + 2y = 1

2y = -4

y = -2

Now let us check that by substituting those values in to the equation

2x + y = 8

2 (5) + (-2) = 8

That is correct so we have the right values for x and y/

A cable car starts off with n riders. The times between successive stops of the car are independent exponential random variables
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

The distribution is \frac{\lambda^{n}e^{- \lambda t}t^{n - 1}}{(n - 1)!}

Solution:

As per the question:

Total no. of riders = n

Now, suppose the T_{i} is the time between the departure of the rider i - 1 and i from the cable car.

where

T_{i} = independent exponential random variable whose rate is \lambda

The general form is given by:

T_{i} = \lambda e^{- lambda}

(a) Now, the time distribution of the last rider is given as the sum total of the time of each rider:

S_{n} = T_{1} + T_{2} + ........ + T_{n}

S_{n} = \sum_{i}^{n} T_{n}

Now, the sum of the exponential random variable with \lambda with rate \lambda is given by:

S_{n} = f(t:n, \lamda) = \frac{\lambda^{n}e^{- \lambda t}t^{n - 1}}{(n - 1)!}
