Consider a taxi station at an airport where taxis and (groups of) customers arrive at times of Poisson processes with rates 2 an

d 3 per minute. Suppose that a taxi will wait no matter how many other taxis are present. However, if an arriving person does not find a taxi waiting he leaves to find alternative transportation. (a) Find the proportion of arriving customers that get taxis. (b) Find the average number of taxis waiting

Answer:

a) \pi(0)=\frac{1}{3}

b) X=\frac{2}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Arrival time with Poisson's process =t_p=2-3minutes

where

\lambda_1=2\\\lambda_2=3

a)

Generally the equation Poisson's process is mathematically given by

\pi()n*\lambda_1=\pi(n+1*) \lambda_2

\pi()n*2=\pi(n+1*)*3

\pi(n+1)=\frac{2}{3} \pi+1*\pi(0)

Therefore

\pi(0)(1+2/3+(2/3)^2+...)=1

\pi(0)=\frac{1}{3}

The proportion of arriving customers that get taxis.

\pi(0)=\frac{1}{3}

b)

Generally the  average number of taxis X waiting is mathematically given by

X=1-\pi(0)\\X=1-(1/3)

X=\frac{2}{3}

PLEASE HELP! DUE AT 11:59 PST
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

Y = 15x + 30 and 8 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

She gets $15 per hour so her income is based on her hours, but we don't know what that is yet so, 15x.

She gets a solid $30 every week that is straight forward

To solve the function

150 = 15x + 30

subtract 30 from both sides

120 = 15x

divide 15 from both sides

8 = x

or

x = 8

You got this :)

The manager of an accounting department wants to form a two
Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer: 153

Step-by-step explanation:

When we have a group of N elements, the total number of combinations of K elements ( K ≤ N) is:

C (N, K) = \frac{N!}{(N-k)!*K!}

Where N! = N*(N - 1)*(N - 2)*...*2*1

In this case, we have a group of 18 people (then N = 18) and we want to see how many different combinations of 2 we can make (K = 2).

Using the above equation we get:

C(18, 2) = \frac{18!}{(18 - 2)!*2!}  = \frac{18!}{16!*2!} = \frac{18*17}{2}  = 9*17 = 153

There are 153 different ways in which the manager can do this.

Given a function f(x)=|x+1|-|x -2|
White raven [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=/x+1/-/x-2/\\a=/x+1/-/x-2/\\\text{square both sides}\\a^{2}={(x+1)}^{2}+{(x-2)}^{2}-2(x+1)(x-2)\\a^{2}=x^{2}+2x+1+x^{2}-4x+4-2x^{2}+2x+4\\a^{2}=9\\a=\sqrt{9}\\a=+3\text{ or }-3

\text{if }a \in \{-3, 3\},\text{the number of solutions is 2}

\text{if }a \in \{-\infty, -3\}\bigcup\{\infty, 3\},\text{it is just like saying from infinity to infinity, which is still 2}
