Answer:
The shape and rate parameters are
and
.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let <em>X</em> = service time for each individual.
The average service time is, <em>β</em> = 12 minutes.
The random variable follows an Exponential distribution with parameter,
.
The service time for the next 3 customers is,
<em>Z</em> = <em>X</em>₁ + <em>X</em>₂ + <em>X</em>₃
All the <em>X</em>
's are independent Exponential random variable.
The sum of independent Exponential random variables is known as a Gamma or Erlang random variable.
The random variable <em>Z</em> follows a Gamma distribution with parameters (<em>α</em>, <em>n</em>).
The parameters are:

Thus, the shape and rate parameters are
and
.

Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
Hope this helps
Let's say that y is the weight of the mother and x is the weight of the baby.
We know that the baby is 7437 pounds less than the mother, which means you need to add 7437 pounds to the baby's weight to get the mother's.
We can show it like this:
x+7437=y.
We know what the baby's weight is (1400 lbs), so just sub it in:
1400+7437=y
y=8837 lbs
The mom weighs 8837 pounds.
Answer:
A general exponential equation is written as:
f(x) = A*(r)^x
Where:
A is the initial value, this is the value that the function takes when x = 0.
r is the rate of growth
x is the variable.
In this case, the function is:
f(x) = 2*(4)^x
The initial value is:
f(0) = 2*(4)^0 = 2*1 = 2
The initial value is 2.
And the rate of growth is 4.
So Martin seems to mixed these two values (he said initial value = 4, and rate = 2, which is the opposite of what we found)
