Explain how the GCF is used to factor an expression?

Mathematics

scoundrel [369]3 years ago

When factoring, it's easier to "pick out" the GCF first because it makes it simpler to factor even further. Otherwise, you will be troubled with lots of numbers and variables, so it will just get confusing.

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.

If tim spends 1/3 each weekday sleeping and about 7/24 each weekday in school what fraction of a weekday does Tim spend either s
Ganezh [65]
Tim spends 1/3 each weekday sleeping and 7/24 in school. We can write 1/3 as 8/24 so we have a common denominator. Now we can see that Tim sleeps for 1/24 time of a weekday more then he spends in school.

I hope that's what you meant.

= 16x - 4

20.

P = 3y + 5 + y - 4 + 6y
= 10y + 1
