Arrivals of customers at a checkout counter follow a Poisson distribution. It is known that, during a given 30-minute period, on

e customer arrived at the counter. Then the actual time of arrival follows a uniform distribution over the interval of (0, 30). Find the conditional probability that a customer arrives during the last 5 minutes of the 30-minute period if it is known that no one arrives during the first 10 minutes of the period.

Answer:

1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X be the time of arrival measured from the beginning of the 30-minute period.

Since the number of arrivals is Poisson, the time of the arrival is equally likely in any subinterval of time of a given size in the 30 minutes, and thus X has a uniform distribution in (0,30) and P(X > 25) = \int\limits^a_b {1/30} \, dx

where a = 30 and b = 25

Solving, we obtain P(X > 25) = 1/6

similarly, P(X>10) = 2/3 by substituting b for 10

Hence, for conditional probability we have

P(X>25 | X>10) = P(X>25) / P(X>10) = (1/6) / (2/3) = 1/4

Find the area of the shaded region. Round to the nearest tenth.
AURORKA [14]

Answer:

3.5 square cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Area \: of \: both \: squares  \\ =  {2}^{2}  +  {3}^{2}  \\  = 4 + 9 \\  = 13 \:  {cm}^{2}  \\  \\ Area \: of \: both \: right \:  \triangle s \\  =  \frac{1}{2}  \times (2 + 3) \times 2 + \frac{1}{2}  \times3 \times 3 \\  = 5 \times 1+ 1.5 \times 3 \\  = 5 + 4.5 \\  = 9.5 \:  {cm}^{2}  \\  \\ Area \: of \:shaded \: region \\  = Area \: of \: both \: squares\\ - Area \: of \: both \: right \:  \triangle s \\  = 13 - 9.5 \\   \purple { \boxed{ \bold{Area \: of \:shaded \: region = 3.5 \:  {cm}^{2} }}}

1000+50-36+7×9+8÷5×2+1​
melomori [17]

Answer:

949.2

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this equation, you must use P.E.M.D.A.S...

First, solve 7x9 and 5x2...

7x9= 63  5x2 = 10

So...

1000+50-36+63+8÷10+1

Next, solve 8÷10 and get 0.8

So...

1000+50-36+63+0.8+1

Then, solve 1000 + 50, and 36+63, and that result with 0.8 and that with 1.

So...

1050-100.8

The Solve!

949.2

Hope this helps!
