Answer:

No. pp you can fit in a van: 6,

No. pp you can fit in a bus: 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Let v = # of pp in vans, and let b = # of pp in buses:

8v + 9b = 228,

4v + 5b = 124

If we solve this system of equations by substitution, we isolate the first eq. for v and then substitute into the bottom eq:

v = 228-9b/8,

Substitute v = 228-9b/8 into bottom eq:

[4 * 228-9b/8 + 5b = 125]

[228+b/2=124]

[228+b = 248]

[b = 20]

Now substitute 20 to find no. of pp in the vans:

v = 228 - 9(20)/8 = 228  - 180/8 = 48/8 = 6

Dima020 [189]

Answer:

mean=4.44

standard deviation=1.67

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean and standard deviation for the number of erroneous returns per batch can be calculated using binomial distribution. The binomial distribution is used because

i) There are one of two possible outcomes( error or no error) that can be categorized into success and failure.

ii) The experiment is repeated fix number of times 12.

iii) The probability of success remains constant at each trial i.e. 37%

iv) The trails are independent.The mean and standard deviation of binomial distribution are np and √npq

Here, n=12, p=0.37 and q=1-0.37=0.63

mean=12*0.37=4.44

standard deviation=√12*0.37*0.63=√2.8=1.67
