Answer:

0.4353 = 43.53%

Step-by-step explanation:

The times are exponentially distributed, so let's call n the mean, and x the time of transaction. The times of the transaction occurs in a certain time is:

e^{-x/n}

So, the probability that a car complete the transaction in less than 4 minutes, is 1 less the times it does it at 4 minutes:

P = 1 - e^{-4/7}

P = 0.4353

P = 43.53%

Mashutka [201]

Answer:

3/8 of the box

Step-by-step explanation:

On Friday Merinda uses 1/4 of the box of pancake mix to make pancakes.

On Saturday she uses 1 1/2 times as much pancake mix as Friday.

On Friday = 1/4 of the box

On Saturday = 1 1/2 × pancake mix as Friday

\dfrac{3}{2}\times \dfrac{1}{4}\\\\=\dfrac{3}{8}

Hence, 3/8 of the box of pancake mix does Merinda use on Saturday.
