Let x represent the amount of frozen yogurt (in hundreds of gallons) sold by the G&T restaurant on any day during the summer

. Storage limitations dictate that the maximum amount of frozen yogurt that can be kept at G&T on any given day is 250 gallons. Records of past sales indicate that the probability density function for x is approximated by y(x) = 0.32x for 0 ≤ x ≤ 2.5.
(a) What is the probability that on some summer day, G&T will sell less than 100 gallons of frozen yogurt?
(b) What is the mean number of gallons of frozen yogurt that G&T expects to sell on a summer day? (Round your answer to the nearest gallon) gal

Answer:

a) The probability of selling less than 100 gallons (x≤1) is P=0.16.

b) The mean number of gallons is M=80 gallons.

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of selling x, in hundred of gallons, on any day during the summer is y(x)=0.32x, in a range for x from [0;2.5].

The probability of selling less than 100 gallons (x≤1) is then:

P(x\leq1)=\int_0^{100}0.32x\cdot dx\\\\P(x\leq1)=0.16(x_b^2-x_a^2)\\\\P(x\leq1)=0.16(1^2-0^2)=0.16

The mean number of gallons can be calculated as:

M=\int_0^{2.5}(y(x)/x)\cdot dx=\int_0^{2.5}(0.32)\cdot dx\\\\M=0.32(x_b-x_a)=0.32(2.5-0)=0.32*2.5=0.8

A Starbucks coffee shop serves an average of 3500 customers per day, with a standard deviation of 250. What is the probability t
castortr0y [4]

Answer:

P(3300  

And we can find this probability with this difference:  

P(-0.8  

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts  

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".  

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".  

Solution to the problem  

Let X the random variable that represent the amount of cofee shops of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:  

X \sim N(3500,250)  

Where \mu=3500 and \sigma=250  

We are interested on this probability  

P(3300  

And the best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:  

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}  

If we apply this formula to our probability we got this:  

P(3300  

And we can find this probability with this difference:  

P(-0.8

3x + 22 is the equation that represents the perimeter of the triangle.  4x + 10 is the perimeter of the rectangle.  Setting the two equal:

3x + 22 = 4x + 10

and collecting like terms:

x=11

We find that the perimeter of both shapes is equal to 11 units.

These concepts become more clear when teachers use number disks instead of base ten blocks. Place value is a very important concept for elementary students because base ten is the foundation of our number system.
