16 = 2^4

24 = 2^3 \times 3

\text{HCF =}2^3 = 8

Maximum number of packets = 8

16 ÷ 8 = 2
There are 2 pencils in each packet.

24÷8 = 3
There are 3 erasers in each bag.

Rosy can have a maximum of 8 packets. Each packet has 2 pencils and 3 erasers.

What is the least common multiple of 8 and 10
Lynna [10]

40 is your answer. Because, you need the lowest multiple so we have to find it by making out a chart of their multiples

Safety regulations require that the time between airplane takeoffs (on the same runway) will be at least 3 minutes. When taking
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

1.96 planes

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the number of planes is shown below:

As we know that

System Inventory  is

= Flow rate in the system × Throughput time

where,

Flow rate is

= Frequency of taken off

= 16 planes ÷ hour

= 16 ÷ 60 Planes per minute

Throughput time  is

=  runway waiting time + runway Run time

= 33 seconds +  6 minutes × 60 seconds + 48 seconds

= 441  seconds

= 441  per 60 seconds

Therefore the number of planes is

= \frac{441}{60} \times \frac{16}{60}

= 1.96 planes

On Sundays, cars arrive at Sami Schmitt's Scrub and Shine Car Wash at the rate of 8 cars per twenty minute interval. Using the P
Sliva [168]

Answer:

The probability that five cars will arrive during the next thirty minute interval is 0.0127.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let <em>X</em> = number of cars arriving at Sami Schmitt's Scrub and Shine Car Wash.

The average number of cars arriving in 20 minutes is, 8.

The average number of cars arriving in 1 minute is, \frac{8}{20}=\frac{2}{5}.

The average number of cars arriving in 30 minutes is, \frac{2}{5}\times 30=12.

The random variable <em>X</em> follows a Poisson distribution with parameter <em>λ</em> = 12.

The probability mass function of <em>X</em> is:

P(X=x)=\frac{e^{-12}12^{x}}{x!};\ x=0,1,2,3...

Compute the probability that 5 cars will arrive in 30 minutes as follows:

P(X=5)=\frac{e^{-12}12^{5}}{5!}

                =\frac{6.1442\times10^{-6}\times 48832}{120}

                =0.0127

Thus, the probability that five cars will arrive during the next thirty minute interval is 0.0127.
