Answer:

(x − 2) = 3

Remove the bracket

x - 2 = 3

Group the constants at one side of the equation

x = 2 + 3

x = 5

Therefore x = 5.00 to 3 significant figures.

Hope this helps

Answer:

<em>(1, 7) </em>

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 3x + 4

y = 6x + 1

6x + 1 = 3x + 4 ⇒ x = 1

y = 3(1) + 4 = 7

Airline passengers arrive randomly and independently at the passenger-screening facility at a major international airport. The m
Elenna [48]

Answer:

Part a: <em>The probability of no arrivals in a one-minute period is 0.000045.</em>

Part b: <em>The probability of three or fewer passengers arrive in a one-minute period is 0.0103.</em>

Part c: <em>The probability of no arrivals in a 15-second is 0.0821.</em>

Part d: <em>The probability of at least one arrival in a 15-second period​ is 0.9179.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Airline passengers are arriving at an airport independently. The mean arrival rate is 10 passengers per minute. Consider the random variable X to represent the number of passengers arriving per minute. The random variable X follows a Poisson distribution. That is,

X \sim {\rm{Poisson}}\left( {\lambda = 10} \right)

The probability mass function of X can be written as,

P\left( {X = x} \right) = \frac{{{e^{ - \lambda }}{\lambda ^x}}}{{x!}};x = 0,1,2, \ldots

Substitute the value of λ=10 in the formula as,

P\left( {X = x} \right) = \frac{{{e^{ - \lambda }}{{\left( {10} \right)}^x}}}{{x!}}

​Part a:

The probability that there are no arrivals in one minute is calculated by substituting x = 0 in the formula as,

\begin{array}{c}\\P\left( {X = 0} \right) = \frac{{{e^{ - 10}}{{\left( {10} \right)}^0}}}{{0!}}\\\\ = {e^{ - 10}}\\\\ = 0.000045\\\end{array}

<em>The probability of no arrivals in a one-minute period is 0.000045.</em>

Part b:

The probability mass function of X can be written as,

P\left( {X = x} \right) = \frac{{{e^{ - \lambda }}{\lambda ^x}}}{{x!}};x = 0,1,2, \ldots

The probability of the arrival of three or fewer passengers in one minute is calculated by substituting \lambda = 10λ=10 and x = 0,1,2,3x=0,1,2,3 in the formula as,

\begin{array}{c}\\P\left( {X \le 3} \right) = \sum\limits_{x = 0}^3 {\frac{{{e^{ - \lambda }}{\lambda ^x}}}{{x!}}} \\\\ = \frac{{{e^{ - 10}}{{\left( {10} \right)}^0}}}{{0!}} + \frac{{{e^{ - 10}}{{\left( {10} \right)}^1}}}{{1!}} + \frac{{{e^{ - 10}}{{\left( {10} \right)}^2}}}{{2!}} + \frac{{{e^{ - 10}}{{\left( {10} \right)}^3}}}{{3!}}\\\\ = 0.000045 + 0.00045 + 0.00227 + 0.00756\\\\ = 0.0103\\\end{array}

<em>The probability of three or fewer passengers arrive in a one-minute period is 0.0103.</em>

Part c:

Consider the random variable Y to denote the passengers arriving in 15 seconds. This means that the random variable Y can be defined as \frac{X}{4}

\begin{array}{c}\\E\left( Y \right) = E\left( {\frac{X}{4}} \right)\\\\ = \frac{1}{4} \times 10\\\\ = 2.5\\\end{array}

That is,

Y\sim {\rm{Poisson}}\left( {\lambda = 2.5} \right)

So, the probability mass function of Y is,

P\left( {Y = y} \right) = \frac{{{e^{ - \lambda }}{\lambda ^y}}}{{y!}};x = 0,1,2, \ldots

The probability that there are no arrivals in the 15-second period can be calculated by substituting the value of (λ=2.5) and y as 0 as:

\begin{array}{c}\\P\left( {X = 0} \right) = \frac{{{e^{ - 2.5}} \times {{2.5}^0}}}{{0!}}\\\\ = {e^{ - 2.5}}\\\\ = 0.0821\\\end{array}

<em>The probability of no arrivals in a 15-second is 0.0821.</em>

Part d:  

The probability that there is at least one arrival in a 15-second period is calculated as,

\begin{array}{c}\\P\left( {X \ge 1} \right) = 1 - P\left( {X < 1} \right)\\\\ = 1 - P\left( {X = 0} \right)\\\\ = 1 - \frac{{{e^{ - 2.5}} \times {{2.5}^0}}}{{0!}}\\\\ = 1 - {e^{ - 2.5}}\\\end{array}

            \begin{array}{c}\\ = 1 - 0.082\\\\ = 0.9179\\\end{array}

<em>The probability of at least one arrival in a 15-second period​ is 0.9179.</em>

1. Which of the following is NOT true about an isosceles trapezoid?
viktelen [127]
On an isosceles trapezoid, the two sides that are not parallel to each other will be exactly the same length.  If this is true, than it would be create a symetric trapezoid.  The diagonals would be the same length.  The bases of any trapezoid are parallel, so this is true.  The diagonals cannot possibly be perpendicular because the 2 nonparallel sides would be slanted.  So, the answer is the 3rd choice.
