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 <em>X</em> 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, <em>p</em> = 0.20.
The random variable <em>X</em> follows a Geometric distribution since it is defined as the number of trials before the first success.
The probability mass function of <em>X</em> is:

(a)
The expected value of a Geometric distribution is:

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



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:


Thus, the probability that the first guest to use an American Express is within the first 10 to checkout is 0.0215.
Answer:
459 sales people.
Step-by-step explanation
Time per call (t) = 45 min = 0.75 h
Hours per sales person (H) = 3,400 hours
Number of customers (n) = 40,000 customers
Call frequency (f)= 52 calls per year
The total number of sales people (S) needed, is given by the total time spent on calls for the year, divided by the amount of hours each person spends on sale:

Rounding up to the next whole person, Pringles needs 459 sales people.
Answer: a,b, and c are the correct solutions
Step-by-step explanation:
You are substituting each (x,y) for the equation given. They must equal the same on both sides.
The answer is 5. Measure r and t are congruent. Measure r is 20 so measure t is also 20. So by dividing 20 by 4 you get 5.
7(200 + 50 + 6) = (7 x 200) + (7 x 50) + (7 x 6) = 1,400 + 350 + 42 = 1,792
