Answer: 0.00067 minutes

Step-by-step explanation: if the proportion of customers who wait more than 15 minutes is 0.01, then the time interval between each waiting customer 15/0.01 = 1500 minutes.

The distribution that defines this question is that of an exponential.

An exponential distribution is dependent on the fixed time rate at which the event is occurring (λ)

For this question of ours, λ = 1500 minutes.

The mean of an exponential distribution is given as

u = 1/ λ = 1/1500 = 0.00067 minutes.

17. Evaluate a. 6! b. 8P5 c. 12C4
Andreyy89
The factorial ! just means we multiply by every natural number less that the value so
6! =6×5×4×3×2×1= 720

for permutations we use the formula n!/(n-r)!
so we have 8!/(8-5)!=8!/3!=8×7×6×5×4

for combinations s we have n!/(n-r)!r!
so we have 12!/(12-4)!4!=12!/8!4!=12×11×10×9/4×3×2=11×10×9/2=99×5
