A store opens at 8am. From 8 until 10 customers arrive at a Poisson rate of four an hour. Between 10 and 12, they arrive at a Po

isson rate of eight an hour. From 12 to 2, the arrival rate increases steadily from eight per hour at 12 to ten per hour at 2; and from 2 to 5 the arrival rate drops steadily from ten per hour at 2 to four per hour at 5. Determine the probability distribution of the number of customers that enter the store on a given day.

Answer:

The probability distribution of the number of customers that enter the store on a given day is:

P(x=k)=\frac{57^ke^{-57}}{k!}

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate a parameter for the given day, we have to calculate what is the average arrival rate for the day.

This can be done with the data given:

1) From 10 to 12, 8 arrival/hour:  16 expected arrivals in this period

2) From 12 to 2, 8 to 12 arrival/hour (average: 10 arrivals): 20 expected arrivals in this period.

3) From 2 to 5, from 10 to 4 arrival/hour (average: 7 arrivals): 21 expected arrivals in this period.

The total expected arrivals in a day are: 16+20+21=57 arrivals/day.

Then, the probability distribution of the number of customers that enter the store on a given day is:

P(x=k)=\frac{57^ke^{-57}}{k!}

Solve This Using The Quadratic Formula: 3x^2+9x-6=0
aivan3 [116]
<h3>Therefore either  x = \frac{-3+\sqrt{17}}{2}    or,  x = \frac{-3-\sqrt{17}}{2}</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

3x^2 +9x -6=0                                x = \frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2- 4ac} }{2a}

\Leftrightarrow x = \frac{-9\pm\sqrt{9^2- 4.3(-6)} }{2.3}                     here a = 3 ,b = 9 and c= -6

\Leftrightarrow x = \frac{-9\pm\sqrt{153} }{6}

\Leftrightarrow x = \frac{3(-3\pm\sqrt{17}) }{6}

\Leftrightarrow x = \frac{-3\pm\sqrt{17}}{2}

Therefore either  x = \frac{-3+\sqrt{17}}{2}    or,  x = \frac{-3-\sqrt{17}}{2}

Solve the system of equations y= 3/2 - 1, -x+ y =-3
kaheart [24]

Answer:

(x, y) = ( 1/2, -3 )

Step-by-step explanation:

y = -3

3/2 - 1 - x + y = - 3

3/2 - 1 - x - 3 = - 3

x = 1/2

solution : (x , y ) = ( 1/2, -3)  

here we are gonna see why is that answer :

-3 = 3/2 -1 - 1/2 - 3 = -3

-3 = -3 = -3

i hope this helps

Construct a trapezium ABCD such that AD is parallel to BC, AB = 4.8 cm, BC = 6.8 cm, CD = 5.4 cm and ∠ABC = 60°. Measure and wri
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

AC = 6.05 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

We can draw two different trapeziums with the information given.

The possible drawings of the trapezium ABCD are in the image attached.

In both trapeziums, the length of AC is the same, and we can calculate this length using the law of cosines in the triangle ABC:

AC^2 = AB^2 + BC^2 - 2 * AB * BC * cos(B)

AC^2 = 4.8^2 + 6.8^2 - 2 * 4.8 * 6.8 * cos(60)

AC^2 = 23.04 + 46.24 - 65.28 * 0.5

AC^2 = 36.64

AC = 6.05 cm
