Answer:

The probability that at least 1 car arrives during the call is 0.9306

Step-by-step explanation:

Cars arriving according to Poisson process - 80 Cars per hour

If the attendant makes a 2 minute phone call, then effective λ = 80/60 * 2 = 2.66666667 = 2.67   X ≅ Poisson (λ = 2.67)

Now, we find the probability: P(X≥1)

P(X≥1) = 1 - p(x < 1)

P(X≥1) = 1 - p(x=0)

P(X≥1) = 1 - [ (e^-λ) * λ^0] / 0!

P(X≥1) = 1 - e^-2.67

P(X≥1) = 1 - 0.06945

P(X≥1) = 0.93055

P(X≥1) = 0.9306

Thus, the probability that at least 1 car arrives during the call is 0.9306.

slamgirl [31]

Here,

2x^2 + 7x + 1 = 0

given,

a = 2

b = 7

and c = 1

From formula,

x = (-b+-√b^2-4ac) / 2a.

We get,

x = -7/4 ± √(41)/4 Ans.

write a rational expression involving one variable for which the excluded values are -4 and -7. Please Help!!!!!!
lions [1.4K]

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Values are excluded if they make the denominator zero, so one rational expression could be:

(x^2 - 9) /  (x + 4)(x + 7)

- when x = -4 or -7 then the denominator is zero so the values of the function is undefined for these values.
