Answer:

  (A) -2018

  (B) 5/36

Step-by-step explanation:

(A) The rate of change between any pair of terms in an arithmetic sequence is the same:

  (a668 -a38)/(668 -38) = (a38 -a13)/(38 -13)

  a668/630 = a38/630 +(a38 -a13)/25 . . . . add a38/630 to both sides

  a668 = a38 +630/25(a38 -a13) = -128 +25.2(-128 -(-53)) = -128 -1890

  a668 = -2018

__

(B) The sum of an infinite geometric series is ...

  S = a1/(1 -r) . . . . . . for first term a1 and common ratio r

We are given S = 6, a1 = 5, so we can find r to be ...

  6 = 5/(1 -r)

  1 -r = 5/6

  1 -5/6 = r = 1/6

Then the 3rd term is ...

  a3 = 5×(1/6)^(3 -1) = 5/36

Suppose that the number of drivers who travel between a particular origin and destination during a designated time period has a
andrew11 [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the number of drivers who travel between a particular origin and destination during a designated time period has a Poisson distribution with parameter μ = 20 (suggested in the article "Dynamic Ride Sharing: Theory and Practice"†).

a) P(X\leq 15) = 0.1565=0.157

b) P(X>26) =1-F(26)\\= 1-0.9221\\=0.0779=0.078

c) P(15\leq x\leq 26)\\=F(26)-F(14)\\=0.9221-0.1049\\=0.8172=0.817

d) 2 std dev = 2(20) =40

Hence 2 std deviation means

20-40, 20+40

i.e. (0,60)

P(0
