Answer:

The correct answer is - 12.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total number of people = y = 39x+50

Total amount spent y = 518

Solution:

The equation for the number of people who attended the dinner

y = 39x+50

The cost of dinner is equally divided by number of people =

then, 518 = y

placing value, 518 = 39x+50

x = (518-50)/39

= 468/39

= 12

Then number of people attended the dinner = 12

businessText message users receive or send an average of 62.7 text messages per day. How many text messages does a text message
KiRa [710]

Answer:

(a) The probability that a text message user receives or sends three messages per hour is 0.2180.

(b) The probability that a text message user receives or sends more than three messages per hour is 0.2667.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let <em>X</em> = number of text messages receive or send in an hour.

The random variable <em>X</em> follows a Poisson distribution with parameter <em>λ</em>.

It is provided that users receive or send 62.7 text messages in 24 hours.

Then the average number of text messages received or sent in an hour is: \lambda=\frac{62.7}{24}= 2.6125.

The probability of a random variable can be computed using the formula:

P(X=x)=\frac{e^{-\lambda}\lambda^{x}}{x!} ;\ x=0, 1, 2, 3, ...

(a)

Compute the probability that a text message user receives or sends three messages per hour as follows:

P(X=3)=\frac{e^{-2.6125}(2.6125)^{3}}{3!} =0.21798\approx0.2180

Thus, the probability that a text message user receives or sends three messages per hour is 0.2180.

(b)

Compute the probability that a text message user receives or sends more than three messages per hour as follows:

P (X > 3) = 1 - P (X ≤ 3)

              = 1 - P (X = 0) - P (X = 1) - P (X = 2) - P (X = 3)

             =1-\frac{e^{-2.6125}(2.6125)^{0}}{0!}-\frac{e^{-2.6125}(2.6125)^{1}}{1!}-\frac{e^{-2.6125}(2.6125)^{2}}{2!}-\frac{e^{-2.6125}(2.6125)^{3}}{3!}\\=1-0.0734-0.1916-0.2503-0.2180\\=0.2667

Thus, the probability that a text message user receives or sends more than three messages per hour is 0.2667.

SSSSS [86.1K]

Answer:

Lara's average speed :

average speed = total distance / total time

                         => 8 miles / 2.5 hours

                         => 3.2 mph

Tim's average speed :

= total distance / total time

= 12 miles / 3.5 hours

= 3.43 mph

therefore,

Tim's average speed (3.43 mph) is greater.

The mean yearly rainfall in Sydney, Australia, is about 134 mm and the standard deviation is about 66 mm ("Annual maximums of,"
svetlana [45]

Answer:

At least 202.44 mm in the top 15%.

Step-by-step explanation:

When the distribution is normal, we use the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this question, we have that:

\mu = 134, \sigma = 66

How many yearly mm of rainfall would there be in the top 15%?

At least X mm.

X is the 100-15 = 85th percentile, which is X when Z has a pvalue of 0.85. So X when Z = 1.037.

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

1.037 = \frac{X - 134}{66}

X - 134 = 66*1.037

X = 202.44

At least 202.44 mm in the top 15%.

Ardi and Lei are both travelling by train. Ardi's train travels 70 km in 35 minutes. Lei's train travels 585 km. It leaves at 9:
Leni [432]

Answer:

10 km/hr

Step-by-step explanation:

Average speed = Total distance travelled / Total time taken

Ardi:

Total distance travelled = 70 km

Total time taken = 35 minutes = 35/60 hour

Average speed = Total distance travelled / Total time taken

= 70 km ÷ 35/60 hr

= 70 × 60/35

= 4,200/35

= 120 km/hr

Lei:

Total distance travelled = 585 km Total time taken = 9:05 - 13:35 = 4 hours 30 minutes

= 4.5 hours

Average speed = Total distance travelled / Total time taken

= 585 km / 4.5 hours

= 130 km/hr

Difference, in km/h, between the average speed of their trains = Lei's train - Ardi's train

= 130 km/hr - 120 km/hr

= 10 km/hr
