The time between arrivals of customers at the drive-up window of a bank follows an exponential probability distribution with a m

castortr0y [4]

Answer:

a) 50.34% probability that the arrival time between customers will be 7 minutes or less.

b) 24.42% probability that the arrival time between customers will be between 3 and 7 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponential distribution:

The exponential probability distribution, with mean m, is described by the following equation:

$f(x) = \mu e^{-\mu x}$

In which $\mu = \frac{1}{m}$ is the decay parameter.

The probability that x is lower or equal to a is given by:

$P(X \leq x) = \int\limits^a_0 {f(x)} \, dx$

Which has the following solution:

$P(X \leq x) = 1 - e^{-\mu x}$

The probability of finding a value higher than x is:

$P(X > x) = 1 - P(X \leq x) = 1 - (1 - e^{-\mu x}) = e^{-\mu x}$

Mean of 10 minutes:

This means that $m = 10, \mu = \frac{1}{10} = 0.1$

A. What is the probability that the arrival time between customers will be 7 minutes or less?

$P(X \leq x) = 1 - e^{-\mu x}$

$P(X \leq 7) = 1 - e^{-0.1*7} = 0.5034$

50.34% probability that the arrival time between customers will be 7 minutes or less.

B. What is the probability that the arrival time between customers will be between 3 and 7 minutes?

$P(3 \leq X \leq 7) = P(X \leq 7) - P(X \leq 3)$

$P(X \leq x) = 1 - e^{-\mu x}$

$P(X \leq 7) = 1 - e^{-0.1*7} = 0.5034$

$P(X \leq 3) = 1 - e^{-0.1*3} = 0.2592$

$P(3 \leq X \leq 7) = P(X \leq 7) - P(X \leq 3) = 0.5034 - 0.2592 = 0.2442$

24.42% probability that the arrival time between customers will be between 3 and 7 minutes

Solve the equations for all values of x by completing the square x^2+62=-16x

lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

$x = \sqrt{2} - 8\\x = -\sqrt{2} - 8$

Step-by-step explanation:

To complete the square, we first have to get our equation into $ax^2 + bx = c$ form.

First we add 16x to both sides:

$x^2 + 16x + 62 = 0$

And now we subtract 62 from both sides.

$x^2 + 16x = -62$

We now have to add $(\frac{b}{2})^2$ to both sides of the equation. b is 16, so this value becomes $(16\div2)^2 = 8^2 = 64$ .

$x^2 + 16x + 64 = -62+64$

We can now write the left side of the equation as a perfect square. We know that x+8 will be the solution because $8\cdot8=64$ and $8+8=16$ .

$(x+8)^2 = -62 + 64$

We can now take the square root of both sides.

$x+8 = \sqrt{-62+64}\\\\ x+8 = \pm \sqrt{2}$

We can now isolate x on one side by subtracting 8 from both sides.

$x = \pm\sqrt{2} - 8$

So our solutions are

$x = \sqrt{2} - 8\\x = -\sqrt{2} - 8$

Hope this helped!

If a non zero number is divided by a zero then what is the notation to denote it

enot [183]

Answer:

0 Divided by a Number 0a=0 Dividing 0 by any number gives us a zero. Zero will never change when multiplying or dividing any number by it.

If f(x)=3x+1 then f(a+h)-f(a)

Varvara68 [4.7K]

F(x) = 3x+1
put x = a+h
f(a+h) = 3(a+h) + 1
f(a+h) = 3a + 3h + 1
put x = a
f(a) = 3a + 1
f(a+h)-f(a) = 3a + 3h + 1 -(3a+1)
f(a+h)-f(a) = 3a +3h + 1 - 3a -1
f(a+h)-f(a) = 3h

40 POINTS!!!!! A submarine descends to 1/6 of its maximum depth. Then it descends another 2/3 of its maximum depth. If it is now

tia_tia [17]

Its max is 780

2/3 + 1/6 = 5/6

650/5=130

650+130=780
