First, you must change all of this into improper fractions, like shown below.
- \frac{8}{5}\div - \frac{2}{3} =
Now you must change the sign.
- \frac{8}{5}* - \frac{2}{3} =
Then we must reciprocalize 2/3.
- \frac{8}{5}* - \frac{3}{2} =
Now we multiply, to get 2 4/10.

kirill115 [55]

Answer:

a) \lambda_1 = 2*2 = 4

And let X our random variable who represent the "occurrence of structural loads over time" we know that:

X(2) \sim Poi (4)

And the expected value is E(X) = \lambda =4

So we expect 4 number of loads in the 2 year period.

b) P(X(2) >6) = 1-P(X(2)\leq 6)= 1-[P(X(2) =0)+P(X(2) =1)+P(X(2) =2)+...+P(X(2) =6)]

P(X(2) >6) = 1- [e^{-4}+ \frac{e^{-4}4^1}{1!}+ \frac{e^{-4}4^2}{2!} +\frac{e^{-4}4^3}{3!} +\frac{e^{-4}4^4}{4!}+\frac{e^{-4}4^5}{5!}+\frac{e^{-4}4^6}{6!}]

And we got: P(X(2) >6) =1-0.889=0.111

c)  e^{-2t} \leq 2

We can apply natural log in both sides and we got:

-2t \leq ln(0.2)

If we multiply by -1 both sides of the inequality we have:

2t \geq -ln(0.2)

And if we divide both sides by 2 we got:

t \geq \frac{-ln(0.2)}{2}

t \geq 0.8047

And then we can conclude that the time period with any load would be 0.8047 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

The exponential distribution is "the probability distribution of the time between events in a Poisson process (a process in which events occur continuously and independently at a constant average rate). It is a particular case of the gamma distribution". The probability density function is given by:

P(X=x)=\lambda e^{-\lambda x}

The exponential distribution is "the probability distribution of the time between events in a Poisson process (a process in which events occur continuously and independently at a constant average rate). It is a particular case of the gamma distribution"

Solution to the problem

Let X our random variable who represent the "occurrence of structural loads over time"

For this case we have the value for the mean given \mu = 0.5 and we can solve for the parameter \lambda like this:

\frac{1}{\lambda} = 0.5

\lambda =2

So then X(t) \sim Poi (\lambda t)

X follows a Poisson process

Part a

For this case since we are interested in the number of loads in a 2 year period the new rate would be given by:

\lambda_1 = 2*2 = 4

And let X our random variable who represent the "occurrence of structural loads over time" we know that:

X(2) \sim Poi (4)

And the expected value is E(X) = \lambda =4

So we expect 4 number of loads in the 2 year period.

Part b

For this case we want the following probability:

P(X(2) >6)

And we can use the complement rule like this

P(X(2) >6) = 1-P(X(2)\leq 6)= 1-[P(X(2) =0)+P(X(2) =1)+P(X(2) =2)+...+P(X(2) =6)]

And we can solve this like this using the masss function:

P(X(2) >6) = 1- [e^{-4}+ \frac{e^{-4}4^1}{1!}+ \frac{e^{-4}4^2}{2!} +\frac{e^{-4}4^3}{3!} +\frac{e^{-4}4^4}{4!}+\frac{e^{-4}4^5}{5!}+\frac{e^{-4}4^6}{6!}]

And we got: P(X(2) >6) =1-0.889=0.111

Part c

For this case we know that the arrival time follows an exponential distribution and let T the random variable:

T \sim Exp(\lambda=2)

The probability of no arrival during a period of duration t is given by:

f(T) = e^{-\lambda t}

And we want to find a value of t who satisfy this:

e^{-2t} \leq 2

We can apply natural log in both sides and we got:

-2t \leq ln(0.2)

If we multiply by -1 both sides of the inequality we have:

2t \geq -ln(0.2)

And if we divide both sides by 2 we got:

t \geq \frac{-ln(0.2)}{2}

t \geq 0.8047

And then we can conclude that the time period with any load would be 0.8047 years.

kobusy [5.1K]

Answer: 200 child tickets & about 143 adult tickets.

Step-by-step explanation:

1st: 1500 / 7.50 = 200

2nd: 1500 / 10.50 = 142.857 (Notice how I put ABOUT)

X = 200

Y = About 143
