Bob cannot distribute the cups in six equal stacks and not have any left over.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to divide the total number of cups in six equal stacks with no left over, the total number of cups will be divided by 6, if there is any remainder then the cups cannot be equally divided with no left over.

Dividing 64 by 6

$= \frac{64}{6} \\= 10\frac{4}{6}$

Here

Quotient = 10

Remainder = 4

As there are 4 cups left, Bob cannot distribute the cups in six equal stacks and not have any left over.

Estimate the product of<br> 5<br> and 4<br> Then find the product.

Nana76 [90]

1: Look at the 4, its a lot easier to multiply 5 x 5 rather than 5 x 4, plus if you are estimating, you are going to round either up or down.

2: Multiply 5 x 5 // the answer is 25.

3: Multiply 5 x 4 (the original) // which is 20.

Answer: V=7.605π

Step-by-step explanation:

The cylinder formula is V=πr^2h

Substitute the values.

V=π(1.3)^2(4.5)

V=π(1.69)(4.5)

V=7.605π

Answer:

1. 0.0000454

2. 0.01034

3. 0.0821

4. 0.918

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X be the random variable denoting the number of passengers arriving in a minute. Since the mean arrival rate is given to be 10,

$X \sim Poi(\lambda = 10)$

1. Requires us to compute

$P(X = 0) = e^{-10} \frac{10^0}{0!} = 0.0000454$

2. We need to compute $P(X \leq 3) = P(X =0) + P(X =1) + P(X =2) + P(X =3)$

$P(X =1) = e^{-10} \frac{10^1}{1!} = 0.000454$

$P(X =2) = e^{-10} \frac{10^2}{2!} = 0.00227$

$P(X =3) = e^{-10} \frac{10^3}{3!} = 0.00757$

$P(X \leq 3) =0.0000454+ 0.000454 + 0.00227 + 0.00757 = 0.01034$

3. The expected no. of arrivals in a 15 second period is = $10 \times \frac{1}{4} = 2.5$ . So if Y be the random variable denoting number of passengers arriving in 15 seconds,

$Y \sim Poi(2.5)$

$P(Y=0) = e^{-2.5} \frac{2.5^0}{0!} = 0.0821$

4. Here we use the fact that Y can take values $0,1, \dotsc$ . So, the event that "Y is either 0 or $\geq$ 1" is a sure event ( i.e it has probability 1 ).
