Willow Brook National Bank operates a drive-up teller window that allows customers to complete bank transactions without getting

out of their cars. On weekday mornings, arrivals to the drive-up teller window occur at random, with an arrival rate of 24 customers per hour or 0.4 customers per minute.
(a) What is the mean or expected number of customers that will arrive in a five-minute period?
(b) Use the arrival rate in part (a) and compute the probabilities that exactly 0, 1, 2, and 3 customers will arrive during a five-minute period. If required, round your answers to four decimal places.
(c) Delays are expected if more than three customers arrive during any five-minute period. What is the probability that delays will occur? If required, round your answer to four decimal places.

Answer:

2, 0.135, 0.270, 0.270, 0.180, 0.145

Step-by-step explanation:

1. To calculate the mean of people arriving in 5 minute period:

We know the arrival rate of minute is 0.4, so people arriving in 5 minutes will be

0.4 x 5 = 2

2. From part 1 it is known thay mean arrival time=2

For this we will use poisson's probability formula that is

P(X=x) = (2^x) x Exp^(-2/x!)

For X=0

P(X=0) = (2^0) x Exp^(-2/0!) = 0.135

For X = 1

P(X=1) = (2^1) x Exp^(-2/1!) = 0.270

For X = 2

P(X=2) = (2^2) x Exp^(-2/2!) = 0.270

For X = 3

P(X=3) = (2^3) x Exp^(-2/3!) = 0.180

3. For delay expected if more than 3 customer arrive in 5 minutes.

P(X>3) = 1 - P(X=0) - P(X=1) - P(X=2) - P(X=3)

P(X>3) = 1-0.135-0.270-0.270-0.180

P(X>3) = 0.145

Explain the steps for simplifying square root of 162
Musya8 [376]
162 is not a perfect square therefore you have to find the largest perfect square that can go into 162 which would be 81.

Mrs. Stern washed
bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

Mrs. Stern washed more

\frac{7}{20} laundry still needs to be washed.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total amount of laundry: \frac{20}{20}

\frac{20}{20} -\frac{2}{5}-\frac{1}{4} =

\frac{20}{20} - \frac{8}{20} -\frac{5}{20} =

\frac{7}{20} of the laundry still needs to be done.

Mrs. Stern washed \frac{8}{20} of the laundry.

Her son washed \frac{5}{20} of the laundry.

Mrs. Stern washed more laundry than her son.
