Answer:

P(X\leq x) =\frac{x-a}{b-a}, a \leq x \leq b

And using this formula we have this:

P(X

Then we can conclude that the probability that that a person waits fewer than 11 minutes is approximately 0.917

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X the random variable of interest that a woman must wait for a cab"the amount of time in minutes " and we know that the distribution for this random variable is given by:

X \sim Unif (a=0, b =12)

And we want to find the following probability:

P(X

And for this case we can use the cumulative distribution function given by:

P(X\leq x) =\frac{x-a}{b-a}, a \leq x \leq b

And using this formula we have this:

P(X

Then we can conclude that the probability that that a person waits fewer than 11 minutes is approximately 0.917

Which are the solutions of x² = 19x + 12​
Sever21 [200]

Answer:

\{x=\frac{19-\sqrt{409} }{2}\ , \  x=\frac{19+\sqrt{409} }{2}\}

Step-by-step explanation:

x² = 19x + 12

⇔ x² - 19x - 12 = 0

Calculating the discriminant :

b² - 4ac = (-19)² - 4×1×(-12) = 409

The discriminant is positive ,then the equation has two solutions.

x=\frac{19-\sqrt{409} }{2} \ \ or\ \ x=\frac{19+\sqrt{409} }{2}
