Answer:

$\mu = 80.51\\\sigma = 1.56$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Percentage of of the diners who make reservations don't show up = 3%

Number of reservations = 83

Thus, we are given a binomial distribution with n = 83 and p = 0.97

$X\sim \text{ Binom}(p = 0.97, n = 83)$

$\mu = np = (83)(0.97) = 80.51$

Around 81 people can be expected to show up.

$\sigma = \sqrt{np(1-p)} = \sqrt{(83)(0.97)(1-0.97)} = 1.5541 \approx 1.56$

The standard deviation of this distribution is 1.56

A 500-gallon tank initially contains 220 gallons of pure distilled water. Brine containing 5 pounds of salt per gallon flows int

Wittaler [7]

Answer: The amount of salt in the tank after 8 minutes is 36.52 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Salt in the tank is modelled by the Principle of Mass Conservation, which states:

(Salt mass rate per unit time to the tank) - (Salt mass per unit time from the tank) = (Salt accumulation rate of the tank)

Flow is measured as the product of salt concentration and flow. A well stirred mixture means that salt concentrations within tank and in the output mass flow are the same. Inflow salt concentration remains constant. Hence:

$c_{0} \cdot f_{in} - c(t) \cdot f_{out} = \frac{d(V_{tank}(t) \cdot c(t))}{dt}$

By expanding the previous equation:

$c_{0} \cdot f_{in} - c(t) \cdot f_{out} = V_{tank}(t) \cdot \frac{dc(t)}{dt} + \frac{dV_{tank}(t)}{dt} \cdot c(t)$

The tank capacity and capacity rate of change given in gallons and gallons per minute are, respectivelly:

$V_{tank} = 220\\\frac{dV_{tank}(t)}{dt} = 0$

Since there is no accumulation within the tank, expression is simplified to this:

$c_{0} \cdot f_{in} - c(t) \cdot f_{out} = V_{tank}(t) \cdot \frac{dc(t)}{dt}$

By rearranging the expression, it is noticed the presence of a First-Order Non-Homogeneous Linear Ordinary Differential Equation:

$V_{tank} \cdot \frac{dc(t)}{dt} + f_{out} \cdot c(t) = c_0 \cdot f_{in}$ , where $c(0) = 0 \frac{pounds}{gallon}$ .

$\frac{dc(t)}{dt} + \frac{f_{out}}{V_{tank}} \cdot c(t) = \frac{c_0}{V_{tank}} \cdot f_{in}$

The solution of this equation is:

$c(t) = \frac{c_{0}}{f_{out}} \cdot ({1-e^{-\frac{f_{out}}{V_{tank}}\cdot t }})$

The salt concentration after 8 minutes is:

$c(8) = 0.166 \frac{pounds}{gallon}$

The instantaneous amount of salt in the tank is:

$m_{salt} = (0.166 \frac{pounds}{gallon}) \cdot (220 gallons)\\m_{salt} = 36.52 pounds$

Answer:

$\text{Length of AB is }\frac{ah}{a+h}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given △KMN, ABCD is a square where KN=a, MP⊥KN, MP=h.

we have to find the length of AB.

Let the side of square i.e AB is x units.

As ADCB is a square ⇒ ∠CDN=90°⇒∠CDP=90°

⇒ CP||MP||AB

In ΔMNP and ΔCND

∠NCD=∠NMP (∵ corresponding angles)

∠NDC=∠NPM (∵ corresponding angles)

By AA similarity rule, ΔMNP~ΔCND

Also, ΔKAP~ΔKPM by similarity rule as above.

Hence, corresponding sides are in proportion

$\frac{ND}{NP}=\frac{CD}{MP} \thinspace\thinspace and\thinspace\thinspace \frac{KA}{KP}=\frac{AB}{PM} \\\\\frac{ND}{NP}=\frac{x}{h} \thinspace\thinspace and\thinspace\thinspace \frac{KA}{KP}=\frac{x}{h}\\\\\frac{NP}{ND}=\frac{h}{x} \thinspace\thinspace and\thinspace\thinspace \frac{KP}{KA}=\frac{h}{x}\\\\\frac{PD}{ND}=\frac{h}{x}-1 \thinspace\thinspace and\thinspace\thinspace \frac{AP}{KA}=\frac{h}{x}-1\\$

$KA(\frac{h}{x}-1)=AP$

$ND(\frac{h}{x}-1)=PD$

Adding above two, we get

$(KA+ND)(\frac{h}{x}-1)=(AP+PD)$

⇒ $(KN-AD)=\frac{x}{(\frac{h}{x}-1)}$

⇒ $a-x=\frac{x}{(\frac{h}{x}-1)}$

⇒ $a-x=\frac{x^2}{h-x}$

⇒ $x^2=ah-ax-xh+x^2$

⇒ $x(h+a)=ah$

⇒ $x=\frac{ah}{a+h}$
