Suppose small aircraft arrive at a certain airport according to a Poisson process with rate α = 8 per hour, so that the number o

f arrivals during a time period of t hours is a Poisson rv with parameter μ = 8t.
Required:
a. What is the probability that exactly 6 small aircraft arrive during a 1-hour period? At least 6? At least 10?
b. What are the expected value and standard deviation of the number of small aircraft that arrive during a 90-min period?
c. What is the probability that at least 20 small aircraft arrive during a 2.5-hour period? That at most 10 arrive during this period?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Step1:

We have Suppose small aircraft arrive at a certain airport according to a Poisson process with rate α =8 per hour, so that the number of arrivals during a time period of t hours is a Poisson rv with parameter μ = 8t

Step2:

Let “X” the number of small aircraft that arrive during time t and it follows poisson distribution parameter “”

The probability mass function of poisson distribution is given by

P(X) = , x = 0,1,2,3,...,n.

Where, μ(mean of the poisson distribution)

a).

Given that time period t = 1hr.

Then,μ = 8t

             = 8(1)

             = 8

Now,

The probability that exactly 6 small aircraft arrive during a 1-hour period is given by

P(exactly 6 small aircraft arrive during a 1-hour period) = P(X = 6)

Consider,

P(X = 6) =  

              =  

              =  

              = 0.1219.

Therefore,The probability that exactly 6 small aircraft arrive during a 1-hour period is 0.1219.

1).P(At least 6) = P(X 6)

Consider,

P(X 6) = 1 - P(X5)

                = 1 - {+++++}

                = 1 - (){+++++}

                = 1 - (0.000335){+++++}

                = 1 - (0.000335){1+8+32+85.34+170.67+273.07}

                = 1 - (0.000335){570.08}

                = 1 - 0.1909

                = 0.8090.

Therefore, the probability that at least 6 small aircraft arrive during a 1-hour period is 0.8090.

2).P(At least 10) = P(X 10)

Consider,

P(X 10) = 1 - P(X9)

                 = 1 - {+++++

Effectus [21]

Answer:

1. -8x² - 16x - 6      a = -8, b = -16, c = -6

1. 4x² - 1                  a = 4, b = 0, c = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

use the 'foil' method:

(4x + 2)(-2x - 3)

F: -8x²     O: -12x       I: -4x       L: -6

-8x² - 16x - 6

(2x + 1)(2x - 1)

F: 4x²     O: -2x       I: 2x       L: -1

4x² - 1
