dezoksy [38]

Answer:

Please check explanations

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to interpret the meaning of the slope

The slope generally refers to the change in y values with corresponding change in x value

with respect to this question, we can see that the slope is negative

What this mean is that the rate of change in the level of oxygen measured in liters is decreasing with an increase in the time

This means that as more time elapses, more oxygen is used up leading to a decrease in the liters of oxygen present

Anna007 [38]

Answer:

First Olympic held in year 1896.

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of Olympiad held in Rio = XXXI = 31st

Difference of years in two consecutive Olympiads = 4 years

Number of years spent in 31 Olympiads can be calculated by,

Number of years spent = (n - 1)d

Here n = number of Olympiads held

d = difference between two consecutive Olympiads

Number of years spent till 31st Olympiads = (31 - 1)×4

= 120 years

Therefore, 1st Olympiad held in the year = 2016 - 120

= 1896

pentagon [3]

Answer:

Probability [No customers in system] = 0.375
Customers waiting for service = 25/24
Average time customer wait = 1.25/1.5
May be wait
Per customer average time = 1.33 (Approx)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Arrival rate λ = 1.25 min

Mean μ = 2

Computation:

(a) Probability [No customers in system]

Probability [No customers in system] = 1-[λ/μ]

Probability [No customers in system] = 1-[1.25/2]

Probability [No customers in system] = 0.375

(b) Customers waiting for service

Customers waiting for service = λ²/ [μ(μ-λ)]

Customers waiting for service = 1.25²/ [2(2-1.25)]

Customers waiting for service = 25/24

(c) Average time customer wait

Average time customer wait = λ / [μ(μ-λ)]

Average time customer wait = 1.25/ [2(2-1.25)]

Average time customer wait = 1.25/1.5

(d) May be wait because Customers waiting for service = 25/24

(e) Per customer average time

Per customer average time = 1/(μ-λ)

Per customer average time = 1/(2-1.25)

Per customer average time = 1.33 (Approx)
