Suppose customer arrivals at a post office are modeled by a Poisson process N with intensity λ > 0. Let T1 be the time of the

first arrival. Let t > 0. Suppose we learn that by time t there has been precisely one arrival, in other words, Nt = 1. What is the distribution of T1 under this new information? In other words, find the conditional probability P(T1 ≤ s|Nt = 1) for all s ≥ 0.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the conditional probability P( T1 < s|N(t)=1 )  for all s ≥ 0

P( time of the first person's arrival < s till time t exactly 1 person has arrived )

= P( time of the first person's arrival < s, till time t exactly 1 person has arrived ) / P(exactly 1 person has arrived till time t )

{ As till time t, we know that exactly 1 person has arrived, thus relevant values of s : 0 < s < t }

P( time of the first person arrival < s, till time t exactly 1 person has arrived ) / P(exactly 1 person has arrived till time t )

= P( exactly 1 person has arrived till time s )/ P(exactly 1 person has arrived till time t )

P(exactly x person has arrived till time t ) ~ Poisson(kt) where k = lambda

Therefore,

P(exactly 1 person has arrived till time s )/ P(exactly 1 person has arrived till time t )

= [ kse-ks/1! ] / [ kte-kt/1! ]

= (s/t)e-k(s-t)

I need the function for the volume of the box for number 1
rjkz [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a rectanguiar shape like this one is V = L * W * H, where the letters represent Length, Width and Height.  Here L is the longest dimension and is 28 - 2x; W is the width and is 22-2x; and finally, x is the height.  Thus, the volume of this box must be

V(x) = (28 - 2x)*(22 - 2x)*x

and we want to maximize V(x).  

One way of doing that is to graph V(x) and look for any local maximum of the graph.  We'd want to determine the value of x for which V(x) is a maximum.

Another way, for those who know some calculus, is to use the first and second derivatives to identify the value of  x at which V is at a maximum.

I have provided the function that you requested.  If you'd like for us to go all the way to a solution, please repost your question.

If you bought something for $372.60 including an 8% tax, what was the price before the tax?
Dvinal [7]

Answer:

  • $345

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Let the price before tax be x, then we have:</u>

  • x + 8% = 372.60
  • x + 0.08x = 372.60
  • 1.08x = 372.60
  • x = 372.60 / 1.08
  • x = 345

The initial price was $345
