Set up the proportion. Then cross multiply to solve for the variable.

$\frac{2.20 dollars}{1 pound} = \frac{x}{0.8 pounds}$

2.20(0.8) = 1(x)

1.76 = x

Answer: $1.76

A new shopping mall is considering setting up an information desk manned by one employee. Based upon information obtained from s

quester [9]

Answer:

a) $P=1-\frac{\lambda}{\mu}=1-\frac{20}{30}=0.33$ and that represent the 33%

b) $p_x =\frac{\lambda}{\mu}=\frac{20}{30}=0.66$

c) $L_s =\frac{20}{30-20}=\frac{20}{10}=2 people$

d) $L_q =\frac{20^2}{30(30-20)}=1.333 people$

e) $W_s =\frac{1}{\lambda -\mu}=\frac{1}{30-20}=0.1hours$

f) $W_q =\frac{\lambda}{\mu(\mu -\lambda)}=\frac{20}{30(30-20)}=0.0667 hours$

Step-by-step explanation:

Notation

P represent the probability that the employee is idle

$p_x$ represent the probability that the employee is busy

$L_s$ represent the average number of people receiving and waiting to receive some information

$L_q$ represent the average number of people waiting in line to get some information

$W_s$ represent the average time a person seeking information spends in the system

$W_q$ represent the expected time a person spends just waiting in line to have a question answered

This an special case of Single channel model

Single Channel Queuing Model. "That division of service channels happen in regards to number of servers that are present at each of the queues that are formed. Poisson distribution determines the number of arrivals on a per unit time basis, where mean arrival rate is denoted by λ".

Part a

Find the probability that the employee is idle

The probability on this case is given by:

In order to find the mean we can do this:

$\mu = \frac{1question}{2minutes}\frac{60minutes}{1hr}=\frac{30 question}{hr}$

And in order to find the probability we can do this:

$P=1-\frac{\lambda}{\mu}=1-\frac{20}{30}=0.33$ and that represent the 33%

Part b

Find the proportion of the time that the employee is busy

This proportion is given by:

$p_x =\frac{\lambda}{\mu}=\frac{20}{30}=0.66$

Part c

Find the average number of people receiving and waiting to receive some information

In order to find this average we can use this formula:

$L_s= \frac{\lambda}{\lambda -\mu}$

And replacing we got:

$L_s =\frac{20}{30-20}=\frac{20}{10}=2 people$

Part d

Find the average number of people waiting in line to get some information.

For the number of people wiating we can us ethe following formula"

$L_q =\frac{\lambda^2}{\mu(\mu-\lambda)}$

And replacing we got this:

$L_q =\frac{20^2}{30(30-20)}=1.333 people$

Part e

Find the average time a person seeking information spends in the system

For this average we can use the following formula:

$W_s =\frac{1}{\lambda -\mu}=\frac{1}{30-20}=0.1hours$

Part f

Find the expected time a person spends just waiting in line to have a question answered (time in the queue).

For this case the waiting time to answer a question we can use this formula:

$W_q =\frac{\lambda}{\mu(\mu -\lambda)}=\frac{20}{30(30-20)}=0.0667 hours$

Jasmine took a cab home from her office. The cab charged a flat fee of $4, plus $2 per mile. Jasmine paid $32 for the trip. How

vaieri [72.5K]

To solve, make an equation. The equation would be
$$32 = 4 + 2x$
x represents the miles driven
to solve, subtract 4 from each side of the equation.
$32-4 = 4-4 + 2x
The equation is now
$28 = 2x
Now you divide by 2 on each side.
$28 ÷ 2 = 2x ÷ 2
simplify
14 = x
The answer is 14 miles

HELP PLEASE!! The following data shows the weight in ounces of 10 different bags of candy.

STatiana [176]

Answer:

Mean= 4.9

Mean Absolute Deviation (MAD): 4.099173553719

Step-by-step explanation:

An outlier is a value that is very different from the other data in your data set. This can skew your results. As you can see, having outliers often has a significant effect on your mean and standard deviation. Because of this, we must take steps to remove outliers from our data sets.

outlier: 21
