Answer:

The fraction with the smaller denominator is the larger fraction.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's take $\frac{5}{6}$ and $\frac{5}{10}$ . The larger the denominator, the more the number of pieces. So if you have a pizza box divided into 6 slices, and they are all the same size, compared to that same box of pizza divided into 10 slices. Each of those 10 slices will be smaller than the 6 slices. Now if you eat 5 of the 6 slices, compared to if you eat 5 of the 10 slices, which one will make you more full and you know that you have eaten a lot? Of course, it is the 5 out of 6 slices because each of those slices is bigger. So the smaller the denominator of the fraction, the larger it is (if the numerator stays the same).

Answer:

The number of minutes advertisement should use is found.

x ≅ 12 mins

Step-by-step explanation:

(MISSING PART OF THE QUESTION: AVERAGE WAITING TIME = 2.5 MINUTES)

For such problems, we can use probability density function, in which probability is found out by taking integral of a function across an interval.

Probability Density Function is given by:

$f(t)=\left \{ {{0 ,\-t$

Consider the second function:

$f(t)=\frac{e^{-t/\mu}}{\mu}\\$

Where Average waiting time = μ = 2.5

The function f(t) becomes

$f(t)=0.4e^{-0.4t}$

The manager wants to give free hamburgers to only 1% of her costumers, which means that probability of a costumer getting a free hamburger is 0.01

The probability that a costumer has to wait for more than x minutes is:

$\int\limits^\infty_x {f(t)} \, dt= \int\limits^\infty_x {}0.4e^{-0.4t}dt$
