A private jet flies the same distance in 8 hours that a commercial jet flies in 7 hours. If the speed of the commercial jet was

mamaluj [8]

Solving a system of equations, we can see that:

Speed of the private jet: 168 mi/h
Speed of the commercial jet: 192mi/h

<h3>How to find the speeds of each jet?</h3>

Let's define the variables:

P = speed of the private jet.
C = speed of the commercial jet.

With the given information, we can write:

P*8h = D

C*7h = D

C = 2*P - 144mi/h

So we have a system of 3 equations, where D is the distance in the problem.

With the first and second equations we can write:

P*8h = D = C*7h

Isolating P, we get:

P = C*(7/8)

Now we can replace that in the last equation:

C = 2*P - 144mi/h

C = 2*C*(7/8) - 144mi/h

And now we can solve that for C.

C - 2*(7/8)*C = - 144mi/h

C*(1 - 14/8) = -144mi/h

C*(8/8 - 14/8) = - 144mi/h

C*(6/8) = 144mi/h

C = (8/6)*144mi/h = 192mi/h

Now that we know the speed of the commercial jet, we can find the speed of the private jet.

P = C*(7/8) = 192mi/h*(7/8) = 168 mi/h

Suppose that X has a Poisson distribution with a mean of 64. Approximate the following probabilities. Round the answers to 4 dec

o-na [289]

Answer:

(a) The probability of the event (X > 84) is 0.007.

(b) The probability of the event (X < 64) is 0.483.

Step-by-step explanation:

The random variable X follows a Poisson distribution with parameter λ = 64.

The probability mass function of a Poisson distribution is:

$P(X=x)=\frac{e^{-\lambda}\lambda^{x}}{x!};\ x=0, 1, 2, ...$

(a)

Compute the probability of the event (X > 84) as follows:

P (X > 84) = 1 - P (X ≤ 84)

$=1-\sum _{x=0}^{x=84}\frac{e^{-64}(64)^{x}}{x!}\\=1-[e^{-64}\sum _{x=0}^{x=84}\frac{(64)^{x}}{x!}]\\=1-[e^{-64}[\frac{(64)^{0}}{0!}+\frac{(64)^{1}}{1!}+\frac{(64)^{2}}{2!}+...+\frac{(64)^{84}}{84!}]]\\=1-0.99308\\=0.00692\\\approx0.007$

Thus, the probability of the event (X > 84) is 0.007.

(b)

Compute the probability of the event (X < 64) as follows:

P (X < 64) = P (X = 0) + P (X = 1) + P (X = 2) + ... + P (X = 63)

$=\sum _{x=0}^{x=63}\frac{e^{-64}(64)^{x}}{x!}\\=e^{-64}\sum _{x=0}^{x=63}\frac{(64)^{x}}{x!}\\=e^{-64}[\frac{(64)^{0}}{0!}+\frac{(64)^{1}}{1!}+\frac{(64)^{2}}{2!}+...+\frac{(64)^{63}}{63!}]\\=0.48338\\\approx0.483$

Thus, the probability of the event (X < 64) is 0.483.
