The average number of customers arriving at an ATM machine is 27 per hour during lunch hours. Use equation to denote the number

of arrivals in a 5 minute time interval. Assume the customers arrive independently and the number of arrivals within each 5 minutes follows a Poisson distribution. Keep at least 4 decimal digits if the result has more decimal digits. The probability that exactly 2 customers arrive in a given 5 minute interval is closest to

Answer:

The probability that exactly 2 customers arrive in a given 5 minute interval =  0.2667

Step-by-step explanation:

Given -

The average number of customers arriving at an ATM machine is 27 per hour during lunch hours. then the average number of customers arriving at an ATM machine n a 5 minute time interval = \frac{27}{60} \times 5 = 2.25

average number of customers arriving at an ATM machine n a 5 minute time interval (\lambda ) = 2.25

Let X denote the no of customer arrivals in a 5 minute time interval

The probability that exactly 2 customers arrive in a given 5 minute interval =

P( X = 2 )  = \frac{e^{-\lambda }\lambda ^{X}}{X!}            ( Using poision distribution )

               =  \frac{e^{-2.25} (2.25)^2}{2!}

               = \frac{.1054 \times 5.0625}{2}

               =   0.2667

Kate is a wage earner. One year she earned $72 000. She works 36 hours/week.
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

Kate's possible hourly rate of pay:  $34.75

Hours of overtime: 100

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find Kate's hourly wage, we can set up an equation based on the number of hours she works per week and the estimated number of overtime hours to equal her total pay for the year.  If Kate works 36 hours/week and there are 52 weeks in a year, her total hours for one year are:  36 x 52 = 1872.  Setting up an equation based on her total earnings of $72,000:

1872x + 100(2x) = 72000, where 'x' is the hourly rate and '2x' is her overtime rate which is double time.

Combine like terms:  1872x + 200x = 72000 or 2072x = 72000

Divide both sides by 2072:  2072x/2072 = 72000/2072

Solve for x:  x = $34.75

Kate's hourly rate is estimated at $34.75.  We can check to see if this is correct by putting this value back into our original equation:

1872(34.75) + 100(2)(34.75) = 65052 + 6950 = 72002

The answer of $72,002 is very close to $72,000 and the best estimate of Kate's hourly wage and overtime hours.

Six times a number increased by 5
sergey [27]
I'm not quite sure what you asking here but if your asking how to answer it in "math terms" than I'll be happy to explain :)

So "times" means multiply and "increase" means add so righting this in math terms would be 
6x + 5 
because it's six times "a number" which you can replace with x!

Let me know if you have any questions :3
