Answer:

There are no student waiting to ask questions

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of students that arre

The arrival rate of the student, λ = 15/hr

The number of minutes spent per student, W = 3 minutes

The number of students waiting to ask questions, 'L', is given by Little's law as follows;

L = λ·W

Where;

L = The number of students in the system

λ = The arrival rate = 15 students/hour

W = The average time spent in the system = 3 minutes = 1/20 hour

∴ L = 15 student/hour × (1/20) hour = 3/4 Students

Given that the number of students waiting to ask questions is a fraction, less than 1, we round down, and there are therefore no student waiting to ask questions

Stella [2.4K]
<span>For the Vertical Angle theorem, if a slant line is intersected by a horizontal, the opposite angles must be equal. In here, he stated that the sum of angle 1 and angle 4 and the sum of angle 3 and angle 4 are each equal to 180 degrees. It means that the sum of angle 1 and angle 4 is equal to the sum of angle 3 and angle 4 by the transitive property of equality. </span>

Multiply the binomial and the trinomial. <br> (x-2)(x^2+2x+4)
malfutka [58]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, we need to multiple x and -2 by x^{2} + 2x + 4 and add the results together:

x(x^{2} + 2x + 4)

x^{3} + 2x^{2} + 4x

-2(x^{2} + 2x + 4)

-2x^{2} - 4x - 8

Adding the two together give the following:

(x^{3} + 2x^{2} + 4x) + (-2x^{2} - 4x - 8)

x^{3} - 8

olga_2 [115]

Answer:

P(X=3cars) = 0.052

P(X>3 cars) = 0.00638

Step-by-step explanation:

In total there are 7 cars per hour.

Using formulae for geometric Probability

P(X=3) = (7^3×e-7)/3! = 0.0521

P(X>3cars) = (7^2× e-7)/2! =

P(X>3) = 0.0128/2×1 =0.00638
