Answer:

a) 0.05

b) 0.9826

c) 0.000039308

Step-by-step explanation:

a) $P_X(0) = \frac{e^{-3}3^0}{0!} = e^{-3} = 0.05$

b) For two minutes, the mean is doubled, hence it is 6. In order to calculate the probability of al least two calls arriving, we calculate first the probability of the complementary event: At most 1 call will arrive. For that probability, we need to sum the probabilities of 0 and 1.

$P_X(0) = e^{-6}$

$P_X(1) = \frac{e^{-6}*6^1}{1!} = 6*e^{-6}$

Hence,

$P(X \geq 2) = 1-P(X < 2) = 1- 7*e^{-6} = 0.9826$

c) For five minutes the mean is 15. We need to sum the probabilities of 0, 1 and 2.

$P_X(0) = e^{-15}$

$P_X(1) = e^{15}*15$

$P_X(2) = \frac{e^{-15}*15^2}{2!} = 112.5*e^{-15}$

As a result,

$P(X \leq 2) = e^{-15}(1+15+112.5) = 0.000039308$

Answer:

$\dfrac{1}{2}x^2\ln x - \dfrac{1}{4}x^2+\text{C}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Fundamental Theorem of Calculus

$\displaystyle \int \text{f}(x)\:\text{d}x=\text{F}(x)+\text{C} \iff \text{f}(x)=\dfrac{\text{d}}{\text{d}x}(\text{F}(x))$

If differentiating takes you from one function to another, then integrating the second function will take you back to the first with a constant of integration.

$\boxed{\begin{minipage}{4 cm}\underline{Integrating $x^n$}\\\\$\displaystyle \int x^n\:\text{d}x=\dfrac{x^{n+1}}{n+1}+\text{C}$\end{minipage}}$

Increase the power by 1, then divide by the new power.

Given indefinite integral:

$\displaystyle \int x \ln x \:\: \text{d}x$

To integrate the given integral, use Integration by Parts:

$\boxed{\begin{minipage}{5 cm}\underline{Integration by parts} \\\\$\displaystyle \int u \dfrac{\text{d}v}{\text{d}x}\:\text{d}x=uv-\int v\: \dfrac{\text{d}u}{\text{d}x}\:\text{d}x$ \\ \end{minipage}}$

$\text{Let }u=\ln x \implies \dfrac{\text{d}u}{\text{d}x}=\dfrac{1}{x}$

$\text{Let }\dfrac{\text{d}v}{\text{d}x}=x \implies v=\dfrac{1}{2}x^2$

Therefore:

$\begin{aligned}\displaystyle \int u \dfrac{dv}{dx}\:dx & =uv-\int v\: \dfrac{du}{dx}\:dx\\\\\implies \displaystyle \int x \ln x\:\:\text{d}x & = \ln x \cdot \dfrac{1}{2}x^2-\int \dfrac{1}{2}x^2 \cdot \dfrac{1}{x}\:\:dx\\\\& = \dfrac{1}{2}x^2\ln x -\int \dfrac{1}{2}x\:\:dx\\\\& = \dfrac{1}{2}x^2\ln x - \dfrac{1}{4}x^2+\text{C}\end{aligned}$
