(7 3 points) Consider a packet stream whereby packets arrive according to a Poisson process with rate 10 packets/s. If the inter

arrival time between any two successive packets is less than the transmission time of the first, the two packets are said to collide. Find the probability that a packet collides with either its predecessor or its successor assuming that all packets have a transmission time of 20 ms. How will your answer change if the packets have independent, exponentially distributed transmission times

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

Let t1 be the arrival times between a packet and its immediate predecessor and t2 be the arrival times between a packet and successor. Let L1 be the lengths of the predecessor packet and L2 the length of the packet itself. Therefore:

P(no collision between packet and predecessor or successor) = P(t_1>L_1)P(t_2>L_2)

If P1 is the probability that there is no collision with preceding packets, hence:

P(no collision with other packets) = P_1*P(t_2>L_2)

λ = 10 packets/s, fixed packet length = 20 ms = 0.02 s. Hence:

P(t_1>L_1)=P(t_2>L_2)=e^{-\lambda *0.02}=e^{-10*0.02}=e^{-0.2}

P(no collision between packet and predecessor or successor) = P(t_1>L_1)P(t_2>L_2) = e^{-0.2}*e^{-0.2}=e^{-0.4}

P(packet collides with either its predecessor or its successor) = 1 - P(no collision between packet and predecessor or successor) = 1-e^{-0.4}=0.33

If the transmission times change, the answer would also change.

What is 7/8 + 1/4 * 5/6 evaluated and simplified into a fraction?
kramer
7/8 + 1/4 * 5/6....no parenthesis means we do the multiplication first

7/8 + 5/24 =
21/24 + 5/24 =
26/24 which reduces to 13 / 12 or 1 1/12

735 mil. Trip in 15 hours what was their average rate
nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

`49 MPH

Step-by-step explanation:

If it took them 15 hours to go 735 miles, and you are trying to find the average rate, then divide the miles by the time (in hours), so for this specific problem, it would be 735 divided by 15 hours, and you will find the answer as 49. (MPH)

A system of equations has definitely many solutions. If 2y-4x=6 is one of the equations, which could be the other equation?
NISA [10]

The given equation is ⇒⇒⇒ 2y - 4x = 6

∴ 2y = 4x + 6   ⇒ divide all the equation over 2

∴ y = 2x + 3  and it can be written as ⇒⇒⇒ y - 2x = 3

The last equation represents a straight line with a slope = 2 and y-intercept = 3

To construct a system of equations with definitely many solutions and the equation ( 2y-4x=6 ) is one of the equations, the other equation must have the same slope and the same y-intercept.

so, the general solution of the other equation is ⇒ a ( y - 2x ) = 3a

Where a is constant and belongs to R ( All real numbers )

The system of equations which has definitely many solutions is consisting of <u>Coincident lines.</u>
