Answer:
a) E(X)=1
b) σ=1
c) P(X>1)=0.368
d) P(2<X<5)=0.128
Step-by-step explanation:
We have X: "the time between two successive arrivals at the drive-up window of a local bank", exponentially distributed with λ = 1.
a) We have to compute the expected time between two successive arrivals.
The expected value for X as it is exponentially distributed is:
b) We have to compute the standard deviation of X.
The standard deviation is calculated as:
c) The probability that X is larger than 1 (P(X>1))
We can express the probability as:
d) The probability that X is between 2 and 5 (P(2<X<5))
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
83/100 is already simplified. You can not make it smaller.
Answer:
the value of the investment after 3 years= £11,904
Step-by-step explanation:
sarah invests £9600 at a simple interest rate of 8% per year
number of years = 3
Formula for simple interest
I = P*n* r
P is the initial amount invested= 9600
r is the rate of interest = 8% = 0.08
n = number of years = 3
Now we find interest using formula
I = 9600 * 0.08 * 3= 2304
Interest amount is 2,304
Now we add the interest with the initial amount to get the value of investment after 3 years
9600 + 2304= 11904

Answer:
a) 0.82
b) 0.18
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that
P(F)=0.69
P(R)=0.42
P(F and R)=0.29.
a)
P(course has a final exam or a research paper)=P(F or R)=?
P(F or R)=P(F)+P(R)- P(F and R)
P(F or R)=0.69+0.42-0.29
P(F or R)=1.11-0.29
P(F or R)=0.82.
Thus, the the probability that a course has a final exam or a research paper is 0.82.
b)
P( NEITHER of two requirements)=P(F' and R')=?
According to De Morgan's law
P(A' and B')=[P(A or B)]'
P(A' and B')=1-P(A or B)
P(A' and B')=1-0.82
P(A' and B')=0.18
Thus, the probability that a course has NEITHER of these two requirements is 0.18.
