PLEASE HELP! Last question! Which graphs show the solution to the given inequalities?

charle [14.2K]

1. A, It goes past the 4, but the circle is not shaded because the answer cannot be 4
2. C. It goes below the 11 and is shaded because it can be equal to 11
3. D. It is less than 13 and cannot equal thirteen, hence the non shaded circle
4. B. I goes past the -2 and has the circle shaded because it can be equal to the -2

Answer:

a) 0.1496 = 14.96% probability that the demand will exceed 190 cfs during the early afternoon on a randomly selected day.

b) Capacity of 252.6 cubic feet per second

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponential distribution:

The exponential probability distribution, with mean m, is described by the following equation:

$f(x) = \mu e^{-\mu x}$

In which $\mu = \frac{1}{m}$ is the decay parameter.

The probability that x is lower or equal to a is given by:

$P(X \leq x) = \int\limits^a_0 {f(x)} \, dx$

Which has the following solution:

$P(X \leq x) = 1 - e^{-\mu x}$

The probability of finding a value higher than x is:

$P(X > x) = 1 - P(X \leq x) = 1 - (1 - e^{-\mu x}) = e^{-\mu x}$

The operator of a pumping station has observed that demand for water during early afternoon hours has an approximately exponential distribution with mean 100 cfs (cubic feet per second).

This means that $m = 100, \mu = \frac{1}{100} = 0.01$

(a) Find the probability that the demand will exceed 190 cfs during the early afternoon on a randomly selected day. (Round your answer to four decimal places.)

We have that:

$P(X > x) = e^{-\mu x}$

This is P(X > 190). So

$P(X > 190) = e^{-0.01*190} = 0.1496$

0.1496 = 14.96% probability that the demand will exceed 190 cfs during the early afternoon on a randomly selected day.

(b) What water-pumping capacity, in cubic feet per second, should the station maintain during early afternoons so that the probability that demand will exceed capacity on a randomly selected day is only 0.08?

This is x for which:

$P(X > x) = 0.08$
