Cars arrive at the Wendy's drive-through at a rate of 1 car every 5 minutes between the hours of 11:00 PM and 1:00 AM. on Saturd

mestny [16]

Answer:

1) $P(X = 8) = 0.1033$

$P(X = 9) = 0.0688$

2) Expected number of 200 restaurants in which exactly 8 customers use the drive-through: 20.66

Expected number of 200 restaurants in which exactly 9 customers use the drive-through: 13.76

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 time interval.

Question 1. Use the Poisson distribution to calculate the probability that exactly 8 cars will use the drive-through between 12:00 midnight and 12:30 AM on a Saturday night at Wendy's. Do the same for exactly 9 cars.

Cars arrive at the Wendy's drive-through at a rate of 1 car every 5 minutes between the hours of 11:00 PM and 1:00 AM. on Saturday nights. This means that during 30 minutes, 6 cars expected to arrive. So $\mu = 6$ .

P(X = 8)

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

$P(X = 8) = \frac{e^{-6}*(6)^{8}}{(8)!} = 0.1033$

P(X = 9)

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

$P(X = 9) = \frac{e^{-6}*(6)^{9}}{(9)!} = 0.0688$

Question 2. At how many of the 200 restaurants in the survey would you expect exactly 8 customers to use the drive-through? exactly 9 customers?

There is a 10.33 probability that 8 customers would use the drive through for each restaurant.

So of 200, the expected number is

$E(X) = 200*0.1033 = 20.66$

There is a 6.88 probability that 9 customers would use the drive through for each restaurant.

So of 200, the expected number is

$E(X) = 200*0.0688 = 13.76$

What is the value of x? assume that the line is tangent to the circle

nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

70°

Step-by-step explanation:

Connect the center of the circle with endpoints of the chord. Let the center of the circle be point O and endpoints of the chord be points A (let point A lie on the tangent line too)and B.

From the figure, central angle AOB has the measure of 220°.

Consider triangle AOB. This triangle is isosceles triangle because OA and OB are both radii. In this triangle the measure of angle AOB is 360° - 220° = 140°.

Angles OAB and OBA are angles adjacent to the base AB, so they are congruent. The sum of the measures of all interior angles in triangle is always 180°, so

m∠OAB + m∠OBA + m∠AOB = 180°

m∠OAB = m∠OBA = 1/2 (180° - 140°)

m∠OAB = 20°

Since drawn line is tangent line, then OA is perpendicular to this tangent line and

x° = 90° - 20°

x° = 70°
