Answer:

E(x) = 15 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

The random variable X (waiting time)  has a uniform distribution between the interval [0,30], because it is just as likely that you arrive in any time and then your waiting time is minimum 0 minutes and maximum 30 minutes

The expected value  of a random variable uniform is:

E(x) = \frac{a+b}{2}

      Where a and b are the interval's extremes

Thus

E(x) = \frac{0+30}{2}

E(x) = 15 minutes

Best Deal 1
scoray [572]

Answer:

C) 18 cents

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

This weeks deal -

Quantity of Flour      Price ($)         Price per pound ($)

3 pounds                    5.25                 (5.25/3) =  1.75

5 pounds                    9.75                 (9.75/3) =   1.95

7 pounds                    12.60                (12.60/3) = 1.80

10 pounds                  14.20                 (14.20/3) = 1.42

12 pounds                  18.24                 (18.24/3) = 1.52

The lowest price per pound is $1.42. Therefore, this is the current week's best deal.

The last week's best deal was = $`1.60/pound

The difference between the unit price for previous week's best deal and this week's best deal = $1.60 - $1.42 = $0.18

Therefore, 18 cents.
