Answer:
(a) The expected number of guests until the next one pays by American Express credit card is 4.
(b) The probability that the first guest to use an American Express is within the first 10 to checkout is 0.0215.
Step-by-step explanation:
The random variable <em>X</em> can be defined as the number of guests until the next one pays by American Express credit card
The probability that a guest paying by American Express credit card is, <em>p</em> = 0.20.
The random variable <em>X</em> follows a Geometric distribution since it is defined as the number of trials before the first success.
The probability mass function of <em>X</em> is:

(a)
The expected value of a Geometric distribution is:

Compute the expected number of guests until the next one pays by American Express credit card as follows:



Thus, the expected number of guests until the next one pays by American Express credit card is 4.
(b)
Compute the probability that the first guest to use an American Express is within the first 10 to checkout as follows:


Thus, the probability that the first guest to use an American Express is within the first 10 to checkout is 0.0215.
The rainfall for one month would be 2.983 inches per month.
You'll need to give a bit more information for the question to be answered. You can only calculate the percentage of error if you know what the mass of the substance *should be* and what you've *measured* it to be.
In other words, if a substance has a mass of 0.55 grams and you measure it to be 0.80 grams, then the percent of error would be:
percent of error = { | measured value - actual value | / actual value } x 100%
So, in this case:
percent of error = { | 0.80 - 0.55 | / 0.55 } x 100%
percent of error = { | 0.25 | / 0.55 } x 100%
percent of error = 0.4545 x 100%
percent of error = 45.45%
So, in order to calculate the percent of error, you'll need to know what these two measurements are. Once you know these, plug them into the formula above and you should be all set!
Answer:
x = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Write equation
-4(-5x + 2) - 3x - 5 = -30
Step 2: Solve for <em>x</em>
<u>Distribute -4:</u> 20x - 8 - 3x - 5 = -30
<u>Combine like terms:</u> 17x - 13 = -30
<u>Add 13 on both sides:</u> 17x = -17
<u>Divide both sides by 17:</u> x = -1
Answer:
1. 0-9
2. 0-6
3. 0-6
Step-by-step explanation:
This scenario can be simulated by generating a set of three numbers using a number generator with numbers 0-9. The numbers 0-6 would represent couples who prefer indoor weddings. If all three numbers in the set are in the range 0-6, it would mean that all three couples prefer indoor weddings.
