The speed with which utility companies can resolve problems is very important. GTC, the Georgetown Telephone Company, reports it

brilliants [131]

Answer:

(a) 11.25 and 1.68

(b) 0.1651

(c) 0.3903

(d) 0.6865

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that GTC, the Georgetown Telephone Company, reports it can resolve customer problems the same day they are reported in 75% of the cases and suppose the 15 cases reported today are representative of all complaints.

This situation can be represented through Binomial distribution as;

$P(X=r)= \binom{n}{r}p^{r}(1-p)^{n-r} ; x = 0,1,2,3,....$

where, n = number of trials (samples) taken = 15

r = number of success

p = probability of success which in our question is % of cases in

which customer problems are resolved on the same day, i.e.;75%

So, here X ~ $Binom(n=15,p=0.75)$

(a) Expected number of problems to be resolved today = E(X)

E(X) = $\mu$ = n * p = 15 * 0.75 = 11.25

Standard deviation = $\sigma$ = $\sqrt{n*p*(1-p)}$ = $\sqrt{15*0.75*(1-0.75)}$ = 1.68

(b) Probability that 10 of the problems can be resolved today = P(X = 10)

P(X = 10) = $\binom{15}{10}0.75^{10}(1-0.75)^{15-10}$

= $3003*0.75^{10} *0.25^{5}$ = 0.1651

(c) Probability that 10 or 11 of the problems can be resolved today is given by = P(X = 10) + P(X = 11)

= $\binom{15}{10}0.75^{10}(1-0.75)^{15-10}+\binom{15}{11}0.75^{11}(1-0.75)^{15-11}$

= $3003*0.75^{10} *0.25^{5} + 1365*0.75^{11} *0.25^{4}$ = 0.3903

(d) Probability that more than 10 of the problems can be resolved today is

given by = P(X > 10)

P(X > 10) = P(X = 11) + P(X = 12) + P(X = 13) + P(X = 14) + P(X = 15)

= $\binom{15}{11}0.75^{11}(1-0.75)^{15-11}+\binom{15}{12}0.75^{12}(1-0.75)^{15-12} + \binom{15}{13}0.75^{13}(1-0.75)^{15-13}+\binom{15}{14}0.75^{14}(1-0.75)^{15-14} + \binom{15}{15}0.75^{15}(1-0.75)^{15-15}$

= $1365*0.75^{11} *0.25^{4} + 455*0.75^{12} *0.25^{3}+105*0.75^{13} *0.25^{2} + 15*0.75^{14} *0.25^{1}+1*0.75^{15} *0.25^{0}$

= 0.6865

Donata bought 4 lemons and 4 plums at the local supermarket for a total of $ 21.60. Dan bought 11 lemons and 6 plums at the same

VashaNatasha [74]

you must establish a equation system with the information given , 4x numbers of limon , where x represent the cost of every lemon and 4y numbers of plums , where y represents the cost of plums
now the equation system is 1) 4x+ 4y = 21,60 and 2) 11x+ 6y = 40.29
of the equation 1 you must obtain the value of x, 4x = 21.60+4y ⇒x=21.60/4+4y/4⇒x= 5.4+y
now with the value of x , it is substitute in the equation 2) 11(5.4+y) + 6y = 40.29 , ⇒ 59.4 + 11y + 6y = 40.29 ⇒ 17y = 40.29-59.4⇒ y = -19,11/7⇒ y = -2.73
the value of y is substitute in the equation 1) x = 5.4 + ( -2,73)⇒ x= 2,67, where ,the price of every lemon is $ 2,67

Pastries made out of filo dough are brushed with either olive oil or butter (but not both). Pastries made out of shortcrust doug

givi [52]

Answer:

3X/20 (option a) of the pastries submitted by Rashid and Mikhail were brushed with butter

Step-by-step explanation:

Rashid pastries (R)

Mikhail pastries (M)

Rashid and Mikhail submitted a total of x pastries

R+M=x (I)

Rashid made 2/3 as many pastries as Mikhail

(2/3)*R=M (II)

Using II in I

R+(2/3)*R=x

(5/3)*R = x

R=(3/5)*x (III)

Using III in I

(3/5)*x+M=x

M=x-(3/5)*x

M=(2/5)*x (IV)

Mikhail filo dough (MF)

Mikhail shortcrust dough (MS)

Rashid filo dough (RF)

Rashid shortcrust dough (RS)

Mikhail used filo dough for all of his pastries

MF=M

MS=0

Rashid used shortcrust dough for all of his pastries

RS=R

RF=0

Filo dough (FD)

FD=RF+MF=0+MF=MF=M (V)

5/8 of the filo dough pastries were brushed with olive oil

pastries brushed with olive oil (OI)

(5/8)*FD=OI

Using V

(5/8)*M=OI

Using IV

(5/8)*(2/5)*x=OI

(1/4)*x=OI (VI)

pastries brushed with butter (B)

Pastries made out of filo dough are brushed with either olive oil or butter (but not both)

FD=OI+B

B=FD-OI

Using V and VI

B= M - (1/4)*x

Using IV

B = (2/5)*x - (1/4)*x

B= (3/20)*x

3X/20 (option a) of the pastries submitted by Rashid and Mikhail were brushed with butter
