You were told that the amount of time lapsed between consecutive trades on the New York Stock Exchange followed a normal distrib

ution with a mean of 15 seconds. The probability that the time lapsed between two consecutive trades would fall below 13 seconds was 7%. What is the probability that the time lapsed between two consecutive trades will be longer than 17 seconds?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that that (X) the amount of time lapsed between consecutive trades on the New York Stock Exchange followed a normal distribution with a mean of 15 seconds.

i.e. X is normal with mean = 15 and unknown std deviation \sigma

Given thatP(X

i.e. P(z

z=-1.475 (from normal table)

Hence \frac{13-15}{\sigma}=-1.475\\\sigma = 1.356

Using this we find P(X>17) = P(Z>\frac{17-15}{1.356} \\=P(Z>1.475)\\=0.5-0.428\\=0.072

Take half middle coefficient and square it:
x^2 +4x +4 -6 = 4 (x+2)^2
                       = 10 x+2
                       = sqrt(10) x

Find the values of x and y that maximize the objective function P=3x+2y for the graph. What is the maximum value?
AURORKA [14]

Answer:

(9, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

Maximum or minimum value occurs at the Corner. The points given are (0, 8), (5, 4) and (9, 0).

Substitute (0, 8) in the objective function.

We get P = 3(0) + 2(8) = 16

Now for (x , y) = (5, 4)

P = 3(5) + 2(4) = 15 + 8 = 23

At (9, 0) we get P = 3(9) + 2(0) = 27.

Clearly, we have the maximum value at (9, 0).

And the maximum value is 27.
