<u>Answer: </u>

A standard six-sided die is rolled twice and the top faces are observed and the probability that the sum of the numbers on the top faces is 10 is \frac{1}{12}

<u>Solution: </u>

The sample space of two dice outcomes is given as follows:

{(1, 1) (1, 2) (1, 3) (1, 4) (1, 5) (1, 6)

(2, 1) (2,2) (2,3) (2,4) (2,5) (2,6)

(3, 1) (3,2) (3,3) (3,4) (3,5) (3,6)

(4, 1) (4,2) (4,3) (4,4) (4,5) (4,6)

(5, 1) (5,2) (5,3) (5,4) (5,5) (5,6)

(6, 1) (6,2) (6,3) (6,4) (6,5) (6,6) }

Total number of events n(s) = 36

Expected Outcomes = {(4, 6), (5, 5), (6, 4)}

Number of favorable outcomes n(E) = 3

Probability (sum of numbers on the top faces is 10) = \frac{n(E)}{n(s)} = \frac{3}{36} = \frac{1}{12}

Therefore the probability that the sum of the numbers on the top faces is 10 is \frac{1}{12}

Rainbow [258]
$12.89 should be the answer bc 4.5+2.25=6.75 and 87 divided by 6.75 is 12.888888 so i would either round up or down

The manager wants to advertise that anybody who isn't served within a certain number of minutes gets a free hamburger. But she d
aksik [14]

Answer:

The number of minutes advertisement should use is found.

x ≅ 12 mins

Step-by-step explanation:

(MISSING PART OF THE QUESTION: AVERAGE WAITING TIME = 2.5 MINUTES)

<h3 /><h3>Step 1</h3>

For such problems, we can use probability density function, in which probability is found out by taking integral of a function across an interval.

Probability Density Function is given by:

f(t)=\left \{ {{0 ,\-t

Consider the second function:

f(t)=\frac{e^{-t/\mu}}{\mu}\\

Where Average waiting time = μ = 2.5

The function f(t) becomes

f(t)=0.4e^{-0.4t}

<h3>Step 2</h3>

The manager wants to give free hamburgers to only 1% of her costumers, which means that probability of a costumer getting a free hamburger is 0.01

The probability that a costumer has to wait for more than x minutes is:

\int\limits^\infty_x {f(t)} \, dt= \int\limits^\infty_x {}0.4e^{-0.4t}dt

which is equal to 0.01

<h3>Step 3</h3>

Solve the equation for x

\int\limits^{\infty}_x {0.4e^{-0.4t}} \, dt =0.01\\\\\frac{0.4e^{-0.4t}}{-0.4}=0.01\\\\-e^{-0.4t} |^\infty_x =0.01\\\\e^{-0.4x}=0.01

Take natural log on both sides

ln (e^{-0.4x})=ln(0.01)\\-0.4x=ln(0.01)\\-0.4x=-4.61\\x= 11.53

<h3>Results</h3>

The costumer has to wait x = 11.53 mins ≅ 12 mins to get a free hamburger
