A local grocery store chain has a sushi stand. That sushi stand makes samples for store customers to entice customers to purchas

e sushi while shopping. The number of customers that pass by the stand and sample sushi per hour is Poisson distributed with a mean of 14. What is the probability that the inter-arrival time between two customers is less than or equal to 2 minutes

Answer: 0.99822

Step-by-step explanation:

Our inter-arrival time follows Poisson distribution with parameter 14 which is in hour so first we have to calculate this in minutes as we have to calculate probability in minutes.

So converting 14 into minutes will give  \frac{14}{60}=0.233

Let X=inter-arrival time between two customers

and here \lambda = 0.233

Probability(X is less than or equal to 2 minutes) = P(X=0) + P(X=1) + P(X=2)

Now the Poisson distribution has PDF = \frac{\exp ^{-\lambda }\times \lambda ^{X}}{X!}

So P(X = 0) = \frac{\exp ^{-0.233}\times 0.233^{0}}{0!} = 0.79215

P(X= 1) = \frac{\exp ^{-0.233}\times 0.233^{1}}{1!} = 0.18457

P(X=2) = \frac{\exp ^{-0.233}\times 0.233^{2}}{2!} = 0.02150

Now adding all three probability gives =  0.79215 +0.18457 + 0.02150=0.99822

Can a Scalene triangle be a isosceles triangle?<br><br> A: Always<br> B: Never<br> C: Sometimes
arsen [322]
A scalene triangle can never be an isosceles triangle. How? Well, let's take a look at the definition of a scalene triangle. In short, a scalene triangle is a classification of a triangle that does not have any congruent sides. On the other hand, an isosceles triangle is a triangle in which its legs are both congruent. Therefore, if a scalene triangle has two congruent legs, it wouldn't even be a scalene triangle, but instead it would be an isosceles triangle. Hope this helped!
