A certain restaurant always overbooks. If possible. At 7:00 pm the restaurant can seat 50 parties, but takes reservations for 53

. If the probability of a party not showing up is 0.04, assuming independence, what is the probability that the restaurant can coommodate all the customers who do show up? You must show all of your work including the correct formulas for calculation to receive full credit of this answer

Answer:

The probability that the restaurant can accommodate all the customers who do show up is 0.3564.

Step-by-step explanation:

The information provided are:

  • At 7:00 pm the restaurant can seat 50 parties, but takes reservations for 53.
  • If the probability of a party not showing up is 0.04.
  • Assuming independence.

Let <em>X</em> denote the number of parties that showed up.

The random variable X follows a Binomial distribution with parameters <em>n</em> = 53 and <em>p</em> = 0.96.

As there are only 50 sets available, the restaurant can accommodate all the customers who do show up if and only if 50 or less customers showed up.

Compute the probability that the restaurant can accommodate all the customers who do show up as follows:

P(X\leq 50)=1-P(X>50)\\=1-P(X=51)-P(X=52)-P(X=53)\\=1-[{53\choose 51}(0.96)^{51}(0.04)^{53-51}]-[{53\choose 52}(0.96)^{52}(0.04)^{53-52}]\\-[{53\choose 53}(0.96)^{53}(0.04)^{53-53}]\\=1-0.27492-0.25377-0.11491\\=0.3564

Thus, the probability that the restaurant can accommodate all the customers who do show up is 0.3564.

Find the area of the region which is inside the polar curve r=5sin(θ) but outside r=4. Round your answer to four decimal places
natka813 [3]

The area of the region which is inside the polar curve r = 5 sinθ but outside r = 4 will be 3.75 square units.

<h3>What is an area bounded by the curve?</h3>

When the two curves intersect then they bound the region is known as the area bounded by the curve.

The area of the region which is inside the polar curve r = 5 sinθ but outside r = 4 will be

Then the intersection point will be given as

\rm 5 \sin \theta  = 4\\\\\theta = 0.927 , 2.214

Then by the integration, we have

\rightarrow \dfrac{1}{2} \times \int _{0.927}^{2.214}[ (5 \sin \theta)^2 - 4^2] d\theta \\\\\\\rightarrow \dfrac{1}{2} \times \int _{0.927}^{2.214} [25\sin ^2 \theta - 16] d\theta \\\\\\\rightarrow \dfrac{1}{2} \times \int _{0.927}^{2.214} [ \dfrac{25}{2}(1 - \cos 2\theta ) - 16] d\theta \\

\rightarrow \dfrac{1}{2} [\dfrac{25 \theta }{5} - \dfrac{25 \cos 2\theta }{2} - 16\theta]_{0.927}^{2.214} \\\\\\\rightarrow \dfrac{1}{2} [\dfrac{25(2.214 - 0.927) }{5} - \dfrac{25 (\cos 2\times 2.214 - \cos 2\times 0.927) }{2} - 16(2.214 - 0.927]\\

On solving, we have

\rightarrow \dfrac{1}{2} \times 7.499\\\\\rightarrow 3.75

Thus, the area of the region is 3.75 square units.

When a decimal is written in word form, what indicates whether the number can be written as a mixed number or as a fraction less
vekshin1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  "and"

Step-by-step explanation:

Properly written, the word "and" separates the integer portion from the fractional portion of the number. If there is no "and", then there is no integer portion, so the number is a fraction less than 1.

<u>Examples</u>:

one <em>and</em> three tenths = 1 3/10

thirty-one thousandths = 31/1000

Biologists stocked a lake with 80 fish and estimated the carrying capacity (the maximal population for the fish of that species
kotegsom [21]

Answer:

P(t) = \frac{160000e^{1.36t}}{2000 + 80(e^{1.36t} - 1)}

Step-by-step explanation:

The logistic equation is the following one:

P(t) = \frac{KP(0)e^{rt}}{K + P(0)(e^{rt} - 1)}

In which P(t) is the size of the population after t years, K is the carrying capacity of the population, r is the decimal growth rate of the population and P(0) is the initial population of the lake.

In this problem, we have that:

Biologists stocked a lake with 80 fish and estimated the carrying capacity (the maximal population for the fish of that species in that lake) to be 2,000. This means that P(0) = 80, K = 2000.

The number of fish tripled in the first year. This means that P(1) = 3P(0) = 3(80) = 240.

Using the equation for P(1), that is, P(t) when t = 1, we find the value of r.

P(t) = \frac{KP(0)e^{rt}}{K + P(0)(e^{rt} - 1)}

240 = \frac{2000*80e^{r}}{2000 + 80(e^{r} - 1)}

280*(2000 + 80(e^{r} - 1)) = 160000e^{r}

280*(2000 + 80e^{r} - 80) = 160000e^{r}

280*(1920 + 80e^{r}) = 160000e^{r}

537600 + 22400e^{r} = 160000e^{r}

137600e^{r} = 537600

e^{r} = \frac{537600}{137600}

e^{r} = 3.91

Applying ln to both sides.

\ln{e^{r}} = \ln{3.91}

r = 1.36

This means that the expression for the size of the population after t years is:

P(t) = \frac{160000e^{1.36t}}{2000 + 80(e^{1.36t} - 1)}
