Suppose customers in a certain queue are served one at a time sequentially, that the time for each individual customer is Expone

ntial, and the average service time per customer equals 12 minutes. (Assume service times are independent of each other.) The time, in minutes, until the next 3 services are completed is Gamma (more specifically, Erlang) with what shape and rate parameters?

Answer:

The shape and rate parameters are \frac{1}{12} and 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let <em>X</em> = service time for each individual.

The average service time is, <em>β</em> = 12 minutes.

The random variable follows an Exponential distribution with parameter, \lambda=\frac{1}{\beta}=\frac{1}{12}.

The service time for the next 3 customers is,

<em>Z</em> = <em>X</em>₁ + <em>X</em>₂ + <em>X</em>₃

All the <em>X</em>_{i}'s are independent Exponential random variable.

The sum of independent Exponential random variables is known as a Gamma or Erlang random variable.

The random variable <em>Z</em> follows a Gamma distribution with parameters (<em>α</em>, <em>n</em>).

The parameters are:

\alpha =\lambda=\frac{1}{12}\\n=3

Thus, the shape and rate parameters are \frac{1}{12} and 3.

2.8 meters linen divided into 45 cm pieces = # of pieces and waste
pogonyaev
2.8 meter= 2800cms

To solve this, we can create a simple algebraic equation:
45x=2800
Divide both sides by 45.
(45x)/45=(2800)/45
x=62.222

You can make 62 full pieces.

To find the waste, multiply the numbers of pieces by the length of each.
62*45
=2790
2800-<span>2790
=10 centimeters

There would be 10 centimeters of wasted linen.

Hope this helps!

MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

\text{Null hypothesis}: H_0:\mu=90\\\\\text{Alternative Hypothesis}:\mu\neq 90

Step-by-step explanation:

Given claim : From the time shoots are planted 90 days on average are required to obtain the first berry.

. The sample mean is 92.3 days. The corporation wants to know if the mean number of days is different from the 90 days claimed.

As we know that the null hypotheses shows there is no statistical difference between the groups but the alternative hypothesis is opposite to it, it shows there is difference.

Thus , the correct hypotheses will be :-

\text{Null hypothesis}: H_0:\mu=90\\\\\text{Alternative Hypothesis}:\mu\neq 90
