Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

from the question that we have been given, we have to find out the next number after 36.

John's next number sequence will be 50. Every number after 8 can be gotten by adding 14. So when we add 14 to 36, we get the final answer, which is the next number in the sequence.

This can be seen below:

14 + 8 = 22

14 +22 =36

14 +36 =50

therefore the next sequence would be 50

Please answer :) I have 7 I need somebody to answer 8 it is a 2 part question!

vazorg [7]

Answer:

question 7 would be option 4 because its saying he has AT LEAST $5, which would mean he DOES have $5 or more. Which is why you would use the "more than or equal to" sign that was used in option 4.

question 8 would be option 1 because its a closed circle that includes the $5 and its going to the right.

Refer to Exercise 3.122. If it takes approximately ten minutes to serve each customer, find the mean and variance of the total s

garri49 [273]

Answer

a. The expected total service time for customers = 70 minutes

b. The variance for the total service time = 700 minutes

c. It is not likely that the total service time will exceed 2.5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

This question is incomplete. I will give the complete version below and proceed with my solution.

Refer to Exercise 3.122. If it takes approximately ten minutes to serve each customer, find the mean and variance of the total service time for customers arriving during a 1-hour period. (Assume that a sufficient number of servers are available so that no customer must wait for service.) Is it likely that the total service time will exceed 2.5 hours?

Reference

Customers arrive at a checkout counter in a department store according to a Poisson distribution at an average of seven per hour.

From the information supplied, we denote that

$X=$ Customers that arrive within the hour

and since $X$ follows a Poisson distribution with mean $\alpha$ = 7

Therefore,

$E(X)= 7$

$& V(X)=7$

Let $Y =$ the total service time for customers arriving during the 1 hour period.

Now, since it takes approximately ten minutes to serve each customer,

$Y=10X$

For a random variable $X$ and a constant $c$ ,

$E(cX)=cE(X)\\V(cX)=c^2V(X)$

Thus,

$E(Y)=E(10X)=10E(X)=10*7=70\\V(Y)=V(10X)=100V(X)=100*7=700$

Therefore the expected total service time for customers = 70 minutes

and the variance for serving time = 700 minutes

Also, the probability of the distribution $Y$ is,

$p_Y(y)=p_x(\frac{y}{10} )\frac{dx}{dy} =\frac{\alpha^{\frac{y}{10} } }{(\frac{y}{10})! }e^{-\alpha } \frac{1}{10}\\ =\frac{7^{\frac{y}{10} } }{(\frac{y}{10})! }e^{-7 } \frac{1}{10}$

So the probability that the total service time exceeds 2.5 hrs or 150 minutes is,

$P(Y>150)=\sum^{\infty}_{k=150} {p_Y} (k) =\sum^{\infty}_{k=150} \frac{7^{\frac{k}{10} }}{(\frac{k}{10})! }.e^{-7} .\frac{1}{10} \\=\frac{7^{\frac{150}{10} }}{(\frac{150}{10})! } .e^{-7}.\frac{1}{10} =0.002$

0.002 is small enough, and the function $\frac{7^{\frac{k}{10} }}{(\frac{k}{10} )!} .e^{-7}.\frac{1}{10}$ gets even smaller when $k$ increases. Hence the probability that the total service time exceeds 2.5 hours is not likely to happen.

Terry, Kevin and barry together have 215 marbles. Terry has 20 marbles more than Barry and kevin has 10 marbles more than Terry.

Zarrin [17]

Terry, Kevin and Barry have a total of 215 marbles.=> Terry has 20 marbles more than Barry = x + 20=> Kevin has 10 marbles more than Terry = (x + 20) + 10=> Barry = xSolutions:=> x + x + 20 + x + 20 + 10 = 215=> 3x + 50 = 215=> 3x = 215 - 50=> 3x = 165=> 3x / 3 = 165 / 3=> x = 55Barry have = 55Terry = 55 + 20 = 75<span>Kevin => 75 + 10 = 85</span>

a line with the slope of 1/3 passes through the points of (6,0). what is the equation in slope intercept form?

sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

y = 1/3x -2

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation for slope intercept form is y= mx + b.

m is the slope and b is where the line crosses the y-axis which is called the y-intercept.

to find the y-intercept plug in a coordinate on the line (6,0)

0 = 1/3(6) + b

then solve for b by first multiplying 1/3 by 6

0 = 2 + b

subtract 2 from both sides

-2 = b

and then you can plug b into the equation

y = 1/3x - 2
