Answer:

2=. 14

4 7

Cross multiply:

2 * 7 = 4 * 14

Simplifying

2 * 7 = 4 * 14

Multiply 2 * 7

14 = 4 * 14

Multiply 4 * 14

14 = 56

Solving

14 = 56

Couldn't find a variable to solve for.

This equation is invalid, the left and right sides are not equal, therefore there is no solution

Suppose you have rolled a six-sided die fifty times and recorded the result of each roll.

a_sh-v [17]

Using it's concept, it is found that the relative frequency probability of rolling an even number based on this experiment is $\frac{11}{25}$ .

A relative frequency is the <u>number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes</u>.

In this problem:

50 dices are thrown, hence $T = 50$ .
22 resulted in an even number, hence $D = 22$

The <u>relative frequency</u> is given by:

$f = \frac{D}{T} = \frac{22}{50} = \frac{11}{25}$

The number of people arriving at a ballpark is random, with a Poisson distributed arrival. If the mean number of arrivals is 10,

Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

a) 3.47% probability that there will be exactly 15 arrivals.

b) 58.31% probability that there are no more than 10 arrivals.

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.

If the mean number of arrivals is 10

This means that $\mu = 10$

(a) that there will be exactly 15 arrivals?

This is P(X = 15). So

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

$P(X = 15) = \frac{e^{-10}*(10)^{15}}{(15)!} = 0.0347$

3.47% probability that there will be exactly 15 arrivals.

(b) no more than 10 arrivals?

This is $P(X \leq 10)$

$P(X \leq 10) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) + P(X = 6) + P(X = 7) + P(X = 8) + P(X = 9) + P(X = 10)$

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

$P(X = 0) = \frac{e^{-10}*(10)^{0}}{(0)!} = 0.000045$

$P(X = 1) = \frac{e^{-10}*(10)^{1}}{(1)!} = 0.00045$

$P(X = 2) = \frac{e^{-10}*(10)^{2}}{(2)!} = 0.0023$

$P(X = 3) = \frac{e^{-10}*(10)^{3}}{(3)!} = 0.0076$

$P(X = 4) = \frac{e^{-10}*(10)^{4}}{(4)!} = 0.0189$

$P(X = 5) = \frac{e^{-10}*(10)^{5}}{(5)!} = 0.0378$

$P(X = 6) = \frac{e^{-10}*(10)^{6}}{(6)!} = 0.0631$

$P(X = 7) = \frac{e^{-10}*(10)^{7}}{(7)!} = 0.0901$

$P(X = 8) = \frac{e^{-10}*(10)^{8}}{(8)!} = 0.1126$

$P(X = 9) = \frac{e^{-10}*(10)^{9}}{(9)!} = 0.1251$

$P(X = 10) = \frac{e^{-10}*(10)^{10}}{(10)!} = 0.1251$

$P(X \leq 10) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) + P(X = 6) + P(X = 7) + P(X = 8) + P(X = 9) + P(X = 10) = 0.000045 + 0.00045 + 0.0023 + 0.0076 + 0.0189 + 0.0378 + 0.0631 + 0.0901 + 0.1126 + 0.1251 + 0.1251 = 0.5831$

58.31% probability that there are no more than 10 arrivals.

Write a quadratic function for each graph described.

user100 [1]

Answer:

$y=2x^2-\frac{4}{3}x-\frac{10}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The roots of the quadratic function (x-intercepts) are

x=-1 and x=5/3

we can write the equation of the parabola as

$y=a(x+1)(x-\frac{5}{3})$

where

a is a coefficient

Remember that

The parabola pass through the point (5,40)

substitute the value of x and the value of y of the ordered pair in the quadratic equation and solve for a

x=5, y=40

$40=a(5+1)(5-\frac{5}{3})$

$40=a(6)(\frac{10}{3})$

$40=20a\\a=2$

substitute

$y=2(x+1)(x-\frac{5}{3})$

apply distributive property

$y=2(x^2-\frac{5}{3}x+x-\frac{5}{3})\\\\y=2(x^2-\frac{2}{3}x-\frac{5}{3})\\\\y=2x^2-\frac{4}{3}x-\frac{10}{3}$

6. You begin work at 8:30 am. You take an unpaid lunch break from 11:45 am to 12:30 pm

STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

7 hours 15 minutes

7.25 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Break from 11:45 am to 12:30 pm = 45 minutes

Two 15-minute unpaid coffee breaks during the day = 30 minutes

Total break hours = 45 minutes + 30 minutes

= 1 hour 15 minutes

Total work day hours from 8:30 am to 5:00 pm = 8 hours 30 minutes

How many hours are you paid?

Total hours paid = Total work day hours - Total unpaid break hours

= 8 hours 30 minutes - 1 hour 15 minutes

= 7 hours 15 minutes

b) Express your answer as a decimal in hours only

7 hours 15 minutes as a decimal

15 minutes to hour = 60 minutes/15 minutes

= 1/4

= 0.25 hours

7 hours 15 minutes as a decimal = 7 hours + 0.25 hours

= 7.25 hours
