5/6 of an hour = 50 minutes.
1/2 of an hour = 30 minutes.
2/3 of an hour = 40 minutes.

An hour has 60 minutes.

-> 5/6 of 60 minutes
5/6*60
=50

So, 50 minutes

-> 1/2 of 60 minutes
1/2*60
=30

So, 30 minutes

-> 2/3 of 60 minutes
2/3*60
=40

So, 40 minutes.

Service calls arriving at an electric company follow a Poisson distribution with an average arrival rate of 5656 per hour. Find

liberstina [14]

Answer:

The average number of service calls in a 15-minute period is of 14, with a standard deviation of 3.74.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a Poisson distribution, the probability that X represents the number of successes of a random variable is given by the following formula:

$P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}$

In which

x is the number of sucesses

e = 2.71828 is the Euler number

$\mu$ is the mean in the given interval. The variance is the same as the mean.

Average rate of 56 calls per hour:

This means that $\mu = 56n$ , in which n is the number of hours.

Find the average and standard deviation of the number of service calls in a 15-minute period.

15 minute is one fourth of a hour, which means that $n = \frac{1}{4}$ . So

$\mu = 56n = \frac{56}{4} = 14$

The variance is also 14, which means that the standard deviation is $\sqrt{14} = 3.74$

The average number of service calls in a 15-minute period is of 14, with a standard deviation of 3.74.

Which of the answer choices could be the one missing data item for the following set, if the mode is 12?

crimeas [40]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

first of all, what is mode: it is the highest occuring number in a set of numbers.

now since 12 is supposed to be the mean and it occurs twice but 9 also occurs twice so for 12 to be the mode, we must add one more 12.

therefore the answer is 12

For which pair of functions is the vertex of k(x)7 units below the vertex of f(x)?

kvv77 [185]

Answer: Option C

$f(x) = x^2;\ k (x) = x ^ 2 -7$

Step-by-step explanation:

Whenever we have a main function f(x) and we want to transform the graph of f(x) by moving it vertically then we apply the transformation:

$k (x) = f (x) + b$

If $b> 0$ then the graph of k(x) will be the graph of f(x) displaced vertically b units down.

If $b> 0$ then the graph of k(x) will be the graph of f(x) displaced vertically b units upwards.

In this case we have

$f (x) = x ^ 2$

We know that this function has its vertex in point (0,0).

Then, to move its vertex 7 units down we apply the transformation:

$k (x) = f (x) - 7\\\\k (x) = x ^ 2 -7$ .

Then the function k(x) that will have its vertex 7 units below f(x) is

$k (x) = x ^ 2 -7$
