Given the scale is 1 cm to 25 km.

We have to find the length of the trail from centimeter to the nearest tenth of kilometer.

Let's take the length of the trail be x km.

The length of the trail given 7.2 cm. We will have to find the length in km.

We have to set it up as a proportion. So we can write the proportion as,

\frac{1}{25} = \frac{7.2}{x}

We have to cross multiply first. We will get,

(1)(x) = (7.2)(25)

x= (7.2)(25)

x = 180

So we have got the required length of the train in kilometer.

The actual length of the trail = 180km.

1/25 = 7.2/x.....1 cm to 25 km = 7.2 cm to x km
cross multiply
(1)(x) = (7.2)(25)
x = 180 km <===

Occasionally an airline will lose a bag. Suppose a small airline has found it can reasonably model the number of bags lost each
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

a) The probability that the airline will lose no bags next monday is 0.1108

b) The probability that the airline will lose 0,1, or 2 bags next Monday is 0.6227

c) I would recommend taking a Poisson model with mean 4.4 instead of a Poisson model with mean 2.2

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability mass function of X, for which we denote the amount of bags lost next monday is given by this formula

P(X=k) = \frac{e^{-2.2} * {2.2}^k }{k!}

a)

P(X=0) = \frac{e^{-2.2} * {2.2}^0 }{0!} = 0.1108

The probability that the airline will lose no bags next monday is 0.1108.

b) Note that P(X \in \{0,1,2\} = P(X=0) + P(X=1) + P(X=2) . And

P(X=0)+P(X=1)+P(X=2) = e^{-2.2} * (1 + 2.2 + 2.2^2/2) = 0.6227

Therefore, the probability that the airline will lose 0,1, or 2 bags next Monday is 0.6227.

c) If the double of flights are taken, then you at least should expect to loose a similar proportion in bags, because you will have more chances for a bag to be lost. WIth this in mind, we can correctly think that the average amount of bags that will be lost each day will double. Thus, i would double the mean of the Poisson model, in other words, i would take a Poisson model with mean 4.4, instead of 2.2.

The Flynn family eats at a restaurant that is having a 5% discount promotion. Their meal costs $62.62, and they leave an 18% tip
mr Goodwill [35]
5% of $62.62= 3.13$
18% of $62.62= 11.28$
so add 11.28 to 62.62- 3.13 and they would pay a total of $48.29
