How to convert improper fraction to a mixed or whole number (reduce to lowest terms): 24/9
Answer:
(a) The expected number of guests until the next one pays by American Express credit card is 4.
(b) The probability that the first guest to use an American Express is within the first 10 to checkout is 0.0215.
Step-by-step explanation:
The random variable <em>X</em> can be defined as the number of guests until the next one pays by American Express credit card
The probability that a guest paying by American Express credit card is, <em>p</em> = 0.20.
The random variable <em>X</em> follows a Geometric distribution since it is defined as the number of trials before the first success.
The probability mass function of <em>X</em> is:

(a)
The expected value of a Geometric distribution is:

Compute the expected number of guests until the next one pays by American Express credit card as follows:



Thus, the expected number of guests until the next one pays by American Express credit card is 4.
(b)
Compute the probability that the first guest to use an American Express is within the first 10 to checkout as follows:


Thus, the probability that the first guest to use an American Express is within the first 10 to checkout is 0.0215.
Answer:
0.048 is the probability that more than 950 message arrive in one minute.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the following information in the question:
The number of messages arriving at a multiplexer is a Poisson random variable with mean 15 messages/second.
Let X be the number of messages arriving at a multiplexer.
Mean = 15
For poison distribution,
Mean = Variance = 15

From central limit theorem, we have:
where n is the sample size.
Here, n = 1 minute = 60 seconds
P(x > 950)
Calculation the value from standard normal z table, we have,

0.048 is the probability that more than 950 message arrive in one minute.
I'm not all that familiar with that sort of representation, but I guess 3 3/4 = 15/4 and 2 1/6 = 13/6.
You will simply have to multiply the time spent walking, 13/6 hours, by the average distance traveled on an hourly basis, 15/4 km/h.
(13*15)/(4*6) = 195/24 = 8,125 km
