Suppose lightning strikes at an average of 1.4 strikes per minute during a particular storm. You play the following game: if the
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

$3.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Mean, λ = 1.4

Strike within next minute = $3 won

Strike between one and 2 minutes = $5

Strike more than 2 minutes = $1

Probability that next strike occurs within the next minute :

Using poisson :

P(x < 1) = 1 - e^-(λx) ;

P(x < 1) = 1 - e^-(1.4*1) = 1 - e^-1.4

P(x < 1) = 1 - 0.2465969

P(x < 1) = 0.7534030

Next strike occurs between 1 and 2 minutes :

(1 < x < 2) :

P(x < 2) - P(x < 1)

P(x < 2) = 1 - e^-(λx) ;

P(x < 2) = 1 - e^-(1.4*2) = 1 - e^-2.8

P(x < 2) = 1 - 0.0608100

P(x < 2) = 0.9391899

P(x < 2) - P(x < 1)

0.9391899 - 0.7534030 = 0.1857869

P(striking after 2 minutes)

P(x > 2) = e^-(λx) ;

P(x > 2) = e^-(1.4*2) = e^-2.8

P(x > 2) = 0.0608100

Amount charged :

(0.7534030 * 3) + (0.1857869 * 5) + (0.06081 * 1)

= 3.2499

= $3.25

Which of the following equations matches the function shown above?
Ksenya-84 [330]

So, the function is obviously shifted up by 1 so it rules out A and B, and we also see that the period is 4pi rather than 2pi, and using the fact that:

\frac{2\pi}{b}=4\pi \implies \frac{b}{2\pi}=\frac{1}{4\pi}\implies b=\frac{1}{2}

Now that we know our b value, we see that the correct answer would be C.

Adele is 5 years older than Timothy. In three years, Timothy will be  of Adele’s age. What is Adele’s current age?
Doss [256]

Answer:

Adele's current age is 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a = Adele's current age

Let t = Timothy's current age

Adele is 5 years older than Timothy:

a = t + 5       {equation 1}

In 3 years Timothy will be 2/3 of Adele's age:

(2/3)(a + 3) = t + 3     {equation 2}

Since we are looking for Adele's age, let's rearrange equation 1 to:

t = a - 5

Substitute that into equation 2 and solve for a.

(2/3)(a+3) = a - 5 + 3

(2/3)(a + 3) = a - 2

Multiply through by 3 to clear the fraction

2(a+3) = 3a - 6

2a + 6 = 3a - 6

Add 6 to both sides, subtract 2a from both sides

12 = a

Adele is 12 years old

This means Timothy is 7 years old.

Check equation 2 to verify:

(2/3)(a + 3) = t + 3

(2/3)(12+3) = 7 + 3

(2/3)(15) = 10

10 = 10
