Answer:

y = - 3x + 21

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

y = - 3x + 4 ← is in slope- intercept form

with slope m = - 3

Parallel lines have equal slopes , then

y = - 3x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (7, 0 ) into the partial equation

0 = - 21 + c ⇒ c = 0 + 21 = 21

y = - 3x + 21 ← equation of parallel line

A rectangle has a length of x+2, a width of 7, and a perimeter of 32. The value of x is ?

beks73 [17]

Perimeter = sum of all sides

32 = 2(x+2) + 2(7)
32 = 2x+4 + 14
32 = 2x+18
14 = 2x
/2 /2

Customers arrive at a grocery store at an average of 2.1 per minute. Assume that the number of arrivals in a minute follows the

Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

a) P(2)=0.270

b) P(X>3)=0.605

c) P=0.410

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that customers arrive at a grocery store at an average of 2.1 per minute. We use the Poisson distribution:

$\boxed{P(k)=\frac{\lambda^k \cdot e^{-\lambda}}{k!}}$

a) In this case: $\lambda=2.1$

$P(2)=\frac{2.1^2 \cdot e^{-2.1}}{2}\\\\P(2)=0.270$

Therefore, the probability is P(2)=0.270.

b) In this case: $\lambda=2\cdot 2.1=4.2$

$P(X>3)=1-P(X\leq 3)\\\\P(X>3)=1-\sum_{x=0}^3 \frac{4.2^x \cdot e^{-4.2}}{x!}\\\\P(X>3)=1-0.395\\\\P(X>3)=0.605$

Therefore, the probability is P(X>3)=0.605.

c) We know that two customers came in in the first minute. That is why we calculate the probability of at least 5 customers entering the other 2 minutes.

In this case: $\lambda=2\cdot 2.1=4.2$

$P(X\geq 5)=1-P(X$

Therefore, the probability is P=0.410.
