Suppose customers in a certain queue are served one at a time sequentially, that the time for each individual customer is Expone
alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

The shape and rate parameters are \frac{1}{12} and 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let <em>X</em> = service time for each individual.

The average service time is, <em>β</em> = 12 minutes.

The random variable follows an Exponential distribution with parameter, \lambda=\frac{1}{\beta}=\frac{1}{12}.

The service time for the next 3 customers is,

<em>Z</em> = <em>X</em>₁ + <em>X</em>₂ + <em>X</em>₃

All the <em>X</em>_{i}'s are independent Exponential random variable.

The sum of independent Exponential random variables is known as a Gamma or Erlang random variable.

The random variable <em>Z</em> follows a Gamma distribution with parameters (<em>α</em>, <em>n</em>).

The parameters are:

\alpha =\lambda=\frac{1}{12}\\n=3

Thus, the shape and rate parameters are \frac{1}{12} and 3.

You buy 1 1/4 yards of fabric and $8 clothing pattern. Your total cost with a 6% sales tax added is $18.55. What is the cost per
Anna35 [415]

Answer: The fabric costs $7.60 per yard.

Step-by-step explanation: First we can divide it by 106 then multiply it by 100 to get rid of the 6% sales tax, which now the cost of the stuff is $17.50. 

Next, we subtract 8 from this to represent the clothing pattern cost. Now it is $9.50.

The last stap to this is to divide it by 1 1/4 to get the final cost per yard: 

The fabric costs $7.60 per yard.

y = -16x2 + 32x - 10 This parabola has x-intercepts, representing the times when the dolphin's height above water is feet.
Lina20 [59]
Answer: This parabola has 0.3875 x-intercepts,
<span>representing the times when the dolphin's height above water is </span>
0 feet.

The x-intercept is the point where the graph crosses the x-axis, which is when the value is y=0. 
The calculation for y=0 would be
<span>Y = -16x2 + 32x - 10
</span><span>0 = -16x2 + 32x - 10
</span>-8x2 + 16x - 5=0

-b +-√(b^2-4ac)  /2a=
-16 +-√(16^2-4(-8)(-5))  /2(-8) =
-16+- √(256-160/ -16 =

-16+- 9.8/ -16 =

What is the value of x in the equation below?
sveta [45]

Answer: C

Step-by-step explanation:

1+2e^x+1=9

2e^x+1=9-1

e^x+1= 8/2

e^x+1 = 4

Here we can applicate the Ln:

ln e^x+1 = ln 4

Applicating the log property for exponent:

(x+1).ln e = ln 4

Ln e = 1, so:

x+1 = ln 4

x = ln 4-1
