To support National Heart Week, the Heart Association plans to install a free blood pressure testing booth in El Con Mall for th

e week. Previous experience indicates, that on average 14 persons per hour request test. Assume arrivals are Poisson distributed from an infinite population. Blood pressure measurements can be made at a constant time of four minutes each. Assume the queue length can be infinite with FCFS discipline.
a. What average number in line can be expected? Round answer to 2 decimal places.

Average number expected _____ people

b. What average number of persons can be expected to be in the system? Round answer to 4 decimal places.

Average number of persons _____ persons

c. What is the average amount of time that a person can expect to spend in line? Round answer to 4 decimal places.

Average amount of time _____ hours

d. On the average, how much time will it take to measure a person's blood pressure, including waiting time? Round answer to 4 decimal places.

Time taken _____ hours

Answer:

(a) Average number expected = 13.07 people

(b) Average number of persons = 14 persons

(c) Average amount of time = 0.9333 hours

(d) Time taken = 1 hour

Step-by-step explanation:

We are informed that the arrivals have a Poisson distribution from an infinite population. On average, 14 persons per hour request a test. Hence,

Arrival rate = λ = 14

Each blood pressure measurement takes 4 minutes. In 1 hour, 60 / 4 = 15 persons are served. Hence,

Service rate = μ = 15

(a) Average number in line = (λ^2) / μ(μ - λ)

                                             = (14^2) / 15(15 - 14)

                                             = 13.07

(b) Average number in system = λ / (μ - λ)

                                                   = 14 / (15 - 14)

                                                   = 14

(c) Average waiting time = Average number in line / λ

                                         = 13.07 / 14

                                         = 0.9333

(d) Average total time = Average number in system / λ

                                     = 14 / 14

                                     = 1

6 = 14 - x <br> One step equations review
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

6 = 14 - x

chance the equation around so it is solvable

14 - x = 6

14 - 6 = x

now solve

14 - 6 = 8

that means x equals 8 so

6 = 14 - 8

Analyze the diagram below and answer the question that follows
laiz [17]

Answer:

C. 40.2°

Step-by-step explanation:

Cosine rule (real handy to remember): c² = a² + b² - 2·a·b·cos(γ)

If you don't know this yet, look it up but in short: c, a and b are the lengths of the sides of the triangle, the angle opposite side a is called α, for b it is β and for c it is γ. That's the convention I've always used anyway, you can call them whatever of course. Anyhow:

c² = a² + b² - 2·a·b·cos(γ)

⇒ |AC|² = |AB|²+|BC|²-2·|AB|·|BC|·cos(∠B)

⇒ |AC|²-|AB|²-|BC|² = -2·|AB|·|BC|·cos(∠B)

⇒ ( |AC|²-|AB|²-|BC|² ) / ( -2·|AB|·|BC| ) = cos(∠B)

⇒ ∠B = arccos( ( |AC|²-|AB|²-|BC|² ) / ( -2·|AB|·|BC| ) )

         = arccos( ( 11²-16²-16² ) / ( -2·16·16 ) )

         = 40.21101958°

         ≈ 40.2°

The mean if 5 numbers is 19 what is the sum of the number?​
Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

95

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the mean formula: mean = sum of elements / number of elements

Plug in the mean and number of elements, then solve for the sum of the numbers:

mean = sum of elements / number of elements

19 = sum of elements / 5

95 = sum of elements

So, the sum of the numbers is 95.
