Answer:

The probability that exactly 6 transactions will be made at an ATM in the next 20 minutes = 0.06306 = 0.0631 to 4d.p

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a Poisson distribution problem

The Poisson distribution formula is given as

P(X = x) = (e^-λ)(λˣ)/x!

where λ = mean = 10 transactions per 20 minutes

x = variable whose probability is required = 6 transactions in the next 20 minutes

P(X = 6) = (e⁻¹⁰)(10⁶)/6! = 0.06306

Answer:

3.2768 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The situation can be model by h(x)=8*(4/5)^(n-1). For the 5th jump, n=5. The height will be 8*(4/5)^4=3.2768

Aldos coffee shop makes a blend that is a mixture of two types of coffee. Type A coffee costs Aldo $4.15 per pound, and type of
bogdanovich [222]

Let A represent amount of Type A coffee pounds used.  

Let B represent amount of Type B coffee pounds used

A + B = 156  

B = 156 - A  

A = 156 - B

5.80A + 4.65B = 826.60  

580 (156 - B) + 4.65B - 826.60 = 0  

904.8 - 5.80B + 4.65B - 826.60 = 0

904.8 - 1.15B - 826.60 = 0  

78.2 - 1.15B = 0  

78.2/1.15 = 1.15B/1.15

68 = B

B = 68 pounds of Type B coffee

There's many more steps you can take to check and etc but am too lazy to put down sorry.

12 yellow balls and 9 red balls are placed in an urn. Two balls are then drawn in succession without replacement. What is the pr
denis23 [38]

Answer:

\frac{9}{35}

Step-by-step explanation:

When the first draw is done there are 9 red balls in a sample size of 21. So there probability of drawing a red ball will be \frac{9}{21}

When the second draw is done, there will be 12 yellow balls in a sample size of 20 since the first ball will not have been replaced into the bag. So the chance of someone drawing the second ball in the second draw is \frac{12}{20}

The probability of them happening in this order is the product of both probabilities:

\frac{9}{21}  * \frac{12}{20}  = \frac{9}{35}

Which is the approximate solution to the system y = 0.5x + 3.5 and y = −x + shown on the graph?
Archy [21]
I'm assuming there is a graph with both functions plotted. The solution would be the point at which these two functions intersect. That coordinates of x and y for that point will yield the solutions for x and y that solve the system of equations.
