Airplanes approaching the runway for landing are required to stay within the localizer (a certain distance left and right of the

runway). When an airplane deviates from the localizer, it is sometimes referred to as an exceedence. Consider one airline at a small airport with six daily arrivals and an exceedence rate of 7%. a) Find the probability that on one day no planes have an exceedence. (2 points) b) Find the probability that at least 1 plane exceeds the localizer. (3 points) c) What is the expected number of planes to exceed the localizer on any given day? (2 points) d) What is the variance for the number of planes to exceed the localizer on any given day? (3 points)

Answer:

a) P(x = 0) = 64.69%

b) P(x ≥ 1) = 35.31%

c) E(x) = 0.42

d) var(x) = 0.3906

Step-by-step explanation:

The given problem can be solved using binomial distribution since:

  • There are n repeated trials independent of each other.
  • There are only two possibilities: exceedence happens or  exceedence doesn't happen.
  • The probability of success does not change with trial to trial.

The binomial distribution is given by

P(x) = ⁿCₓ pˣ (1 - p)ⁿ⁻ˣ

Where n is the number of trials, x is the variable of interest and p is the probability of success.

For the given scenario. the six daily arrivals are the number of trials

Number of trials = n = 6

The probability of success = 7% = 0.07

a) Find the probability that on one day no planes have an exceedence.

Here we have x = 0, n = 6 and p = 0.07

P(x = 0) = ⁶C₀(0.07⁰)(1 - 0.07)⁶⁻⁰

P(x = 0) = (1)(0.07⁰)(0.93)⁶

P(x = 0) = 0.6469

P(x = 0) = 64.69%

b) Find the probability that at least 1 plane exceeds the localizer.

The probability that at least 1 plane exceeds the localizer is given by

P(x ≥ 1) = 1 - P(x < 1)

But we know that P(x < 1) = P(x = 0) so,

P(x ≥ 1) = 1 - P(x = 0)

We have already calculated P(x = 0) in part (a)

P(x ≥ 1) = 1 - 0.6469

P(x ≥ 1) = 0.3531

P(x ≥ 1) = 35.31%

c) What is the expected number of planes to exceed the localizer on any given day?

The expected number of planes to exceed the localizer is given by

E(x) = n×p

Where n is the number of trials and p is the probability of success

E(x) = 6×0.07

E(x) = 0.42

Therefore, the expected number of planes to exceed the localizer on any given day is 0.42

d) What is the variance for the number of planes to exceed the localizer on any given day?

The variance for the number of planes to exceed the localizer is given by

var(x) = n×p×q

Where n is the number of trials and p is the probability of success and q is the probability of failure.

var(x) = 6×0.07×(1 - 0.07)

var(x) = 6×0.07×(0.93)

var(x) = 0.3906

Therefore, the variance for the number of planes to exceed the localizer on any given day is 0.3906.

insens350 [35]

Answer:

F, I only

Step-by-step explanation:

We can see this is a quadratic equation and c is the constant. What changes when we change the constant? It will change the h intercept which we can see is also known as a y intercept (the y axis is renamed as h).

You can also use graphs to visualize this, try changing the constant in the equation and you can see the y intercept change.

so the answer is F, I only.

Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

86%

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>430</u><u> </u> × <u>100</u> = <u>430</u> = 86%

500 1 5

you are going to cancel. 100 divided by 100 leaves 1. 500 divided by 100 is 5.

430×1= 430. 5×1=5. divide 430 by 5 and you"ll get 86.

If you apply the changes below to the absolute value parent function f(x)=lxl, what is the equation of the new function?
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

f(x)=|x+4|+2

Step-by-step explanation:

The given absolute value function is

f(x)=|x|

This is the base or the parent function.

The transformation f(x)=|x+b|+c will shift the parent function b units to the left and c units up.

From the question, b=4 units and c=2 units.

The new equation is f(x)=|x+4|+2
