Answer:

5x - 2y = - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

- 2x + y = 0 → (1)

- 7x + 3y = 2 → (2)

Subtracting (2) from (1) term by term

- 2x - (- 7x) + y - 3y = 0 - 2, that is

- 2x + 7x - 2y = - 2

5x - 2y = - 2

The arrivals of clients at a service firm in Santa Clara is a random variable from Poisson distribution with rate 2 arrivals per

ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

1.76% probability that in one hour more than 5 clients arrive

Step-by-step explanation:

In a Poisson distribution, the probability that X represents the number of successes of a random variable is given by the following formula:

$P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}$

In which

x is the number of sucesses

e = 2.71828 is the Euler number

$\mu$ is the mean in the given time interval.

The arrivals of clients at a service firm in Santa Clara is a random variable from Poisson distribution with rate 2 arrivals per hour.

This means that $\mu = 2$

What is the probability that in one hour more than 5 clients arrive

Either 5 or less clients arrive, or more than 5 do. The sum of the probabilities of these events is decimal 1. So

$P(X \leq 5) + P(X > 5) = 1$

We want P(X > 5). So

$P(X > 5) = 1 - P(X \leq 5)$

In which

$P(X \leq 5) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5)$

$P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}$

$P(X = 0) = \frac{e^{-2}*2^{0}}{(0)!} = 0.1353$

$P(X = 1) = \frac{e^{-2}*2^{1}}{(1)!} = 0.2707$

$P(X = 2) = \frac{e^{-2}*2^{2}}{(2)!} = 0.2707$

$P(X = 3) = \frac{e^{-2}*2^{3}}{(3)!} = 0.1804$

$P(X = 4) = \frac{e^{-2}*2^{4}}{(4)!} = 0.0902$

$P(X = 5) = \frac{e^{-2}*2^{5}}{(5)!} = 0.0361$

$P(X \leq 5) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) = 0.1353 + 0.2702 + 0.2702 + 0.1804 + 0.0902 + 0.0361 = 0.9824$

$P(X > 5) = 1 - P(X \leq 5) = 1 - 0.9824 = 0.0176$

1.76% probability that in one hour more than 5 clients arrive

Suppose that x is a binomial random variable with n=5, p=. 3,and q=. 7.1. Write the binomial formula for this situation and list

Radda [10]

Answer:

$P(X = x) = C_{5,x}.(0.3)^{x}.(0.7)^{5-x}$

Possible values of x: Any from 0 to 5.

$P(X = 0) = C_{5,0}.(0.3)^{0}.(0.7)^{5-0} = 0.16807$

$P(X = 1) = C_{5,1}.(0.3)^{1}.(0.7)^{5-1} = 0.36015$

$P(X = 2) = C_{5,2}.(0.3)^{2}.(0.7)^{5-2} = 0.3087$

$P(X = 3) = C_{5,3}.(0.3)^{3}.(0.7)^{5-3} = 0.1323$

$P(X = 4) = C_{5,4}.(0.3)^{4}.(0.7)^{5-4} = 0.02835$

$P(X = 5) = C_{5,5}.(0.3)^{5}.(0.7)^{5-5} = 0.00243$

Step-by-step explanation:

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

In which $C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

And p is the probability of X happening.

In this question:

$n = 5, p = 0.3, q = 1 - p = 0.7$

$P(X = x) = C_{5,x}.(0.3)^{x}.(0.7)^{5-x}$

Possible values of x: 5 trials, so any value from 0 to 5.

For each value of x calculate p(☓ =x)

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 0) = C_{5,0}.(0.3)^{0}.(0.7)^{5-0} = 0.16807$

$P(X = 1) = C_{5,1}.(0.3)^{1}.(0.7)^{5-1} = 0.36015$

$P(X = 2) = C_{5,2}.(0.3)^{2}.(0.7)^{5-2} = 0.3087$

$P(X = 3) = C_{5,3}.(0.3)^{3}.(0.7)^{5-3} = 0.1323$

$P(X = 4) = C_{5,4}.(0.3)^{4}.(0.7)^{5-4} = 0.02835$

$P(X = 5) = C_{5,5}.(0.3)^{5}.(0.7)^{5-5} = 0.00243$
