17- 6 11/12

borrow from the 17 and use a common denominator

16 12/12 - 6 11/12

10 1/12

Account A
A=p+i
A=25,000+(925×5)
A=29,625

A=p(1+rt)
A=25,000×(1+0.065×5)

In a certain isosceles right triangle, the altitude to the hypotenuse has length

Law Incorporation [45]

The angle bisector, median, and altitude are all the same things in an isosceles triangle.

That means that the legs of the smaller triangles created by the altitude are 4 root 2.

By special properties of an right triangle, the hypotenuse is 8.

Since the legs of the original right triangle are congruent, the area of the original triangle is 8*8/2.

Now we just simplify:

8*8/2=64/2=32

In the Ardmore Hotel, 20 percent of the guests (the historical percentage) pay by American Express credit card. (a) What is the

xxMikexx [17]

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 X 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, p = 0.20.

The random variable X follows a Geometric distribution since it is defined as the number of trials before the first success.

The probability mass function of X is:

$P(X=x)=(1-p)^{x}p;\ x=0,1,2,3...,\ 0$

(a)

The expected value of a Geometric distribution is:

$E(X)=\frac{1-p}{p}$

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

$E(X)=\frac{1-p}{p}$

$=\frac{1-0.20}{0.20}$

$=4$

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:

$P(X=10)=(1-0.20)^{10}\times0.20$

$=0.1073741824\times 0.20\\=0.02147483648\\\approx0.0215$

Thus, the probability that the first guest to use an American Express is within the first 10 to checkout is 0.0215.
