Answer:

s > 42

Step-by-step explanation: INCOMPLETE QUESTION, PROBLEM STATEMENT DOES NOT GIVE THE MODELING FUNCTION.

I´VE FOUND IN NTERNET   PROFIT

p(s) = s² + 9*s - 142

Then we have

s² + 9*s - 142 > 2000

rearrange that inequation

s² + 9*s  - 142 > 2000      ⇒  s² + 9*s  - 2142  >  0

we complete the expression as a perfect quadratic, with the help of two number that add +9  and multiplying  - 2142

Numbers are  51 and  - 42    

then

factoring that expression as a perfect quadratic

( s + 51 )* ( s - 42 ) > 0

For what  have two solution, and we dismiss the negative value since the numbers of shirts could not be negative, we get

s - 42 > 0

s > 42  the solution

Customers arrive at a restaurant according to a Poisson distribution at a rate of 20 customers per hour. The restaurant opens fo
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

0.087

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that there were 17 customers at 11:07, probability of having 20 customers in the restaurant at 11:12 am could be computed as:

= Probability of having 3 customers in that 5 minute period. For every minute period, the number of customers coming can be modeled as:

X₅ ~ Poisson (20 (5/60))

X₅ ~ Poisson (1.6667)

Formula for computing probabilities for Poisson is as follows:

P (X=ₓ) = ((<em>e</em>^(-λ)) λˣ)/ₓ!

P(X₅= 3) = ((<em>e</em>^(-λ)) λˣ)/ₓ! =  (e^-1.6667)((1.6667²)/3!)

P(X₅= 3) = (2.718^(-1.6667))((2.78)/6)

P(X₅= 3) = (2.718^(-1.6667))0.46

P(X₅= 3) = 0.1889×0.46

P(X₅= 3) = 0.086894

P(X₅= 3) = 0.087

Therefore, the probability of having 20 customers in the restaurant at 11:12 am given that there were 17 customers at 11:07 am is 0.087.
