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.

I'm solving for UW. And we're using pythagorean theorem.​
Alik [6]
UW = 45
a squared + b squared = c squared
- 6^2 + x^2 = 9^2
- 36 + x = 81
- (subtract 36 from both sides)
- x = 45

i'm pretty sure this is right and i hope it helps you!
