Suppose that the number of minutes that you need to wait for a bus is uniformly distributed on the interval [0, 15]. If you take the bus seven times, what is the probability that your longest wait is less than 12 minutes

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

0.2097 = 20.97% probability that your longest wait is less than 12 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the uniform and the binomial distribution.

Uniform distribution:

A distribution is called uniform if each outcome has the same probability of happening.

The uniform distribution has two bounds, a and b, and the probability of finding a value lower than x is given by:

[tex]P(X < x) = \frac{x - a}{b - a}[/tex]

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

And p is the probability of X happening.

Probability of a single bus having a waiting time of less than 12 times:

Uniformly distributed on the interval [0, 15] means that [tex]a = 0, b = 15[/tex]

[tex]P(X < 12) = \frac{12 - 0}{15 - 0} = 0.8[/tex]

What is the probability that your longest wait is less than 12 minutes?

This is the probability that all 7 buses have waiting time less than 12 minutes, which is [tex]P(X = 7)[/tex] when [tex]n = 7[/tex], with [tex]p = 0.8[/tex]. So

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 7) = C_{7,7}.(0.8)^{7}.(0.2)^{0} = 0.2097[/tex]

0.2097 = 20.97% probability that your longest wait is less than 12 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

0.14 is the probability that a person will retake their sexfie exactly 3 times.

What is probability?

The area of mathematics known as probability deals with numerical representations of the likelihood that an event will occur or that a statement is true. An event's probability is a number between 0 and 1, where, roughly speaking, 0 denotes the event's impossibility and 1 denotes certainty.

Given

Total frequency = 27+29+18+14+12 = 100

frequency of 3 retakes = 14

p(r) = frequency of 3 retakes/ Total frequency

p(r) = 14/100 = 0.14

An airline flying to a Midwest destination can sell 20 coach-class tickets per day at a price of $250 and ten business-class tickets per day at a price of $750. It finds that for each $10 decrease in the price of the coach ticket, it will sell four more per day, and for each $50 decrease in the business-class price, it will sell two more per day. What prices should the airline charge for the coach and business-class tickets to maximize revenue? [Hint: Let x be the number of $10 price decreases for coach tickets and y be the number of $50 price decreases for business-class tickets, and use the methods in this example and this example for each type of car.]

Answers

Solution :

Let x = number of coach class tickets sold per day on $ 10 reduced price

y = number of the business class tickets sold per day on $ 50 reduced per price.

Number of the coach class tickets sold = 20 per day at a price of $ 250

Number of the business class tickets sold = 10 per day at a price of $ 750

Decrease in the price of coach class tickets by $ 10 increases the number of tickets sold by 4 per day

Decrease in the price of business class tickets by $ 50 increases the number of tickets sold by 2 per day.

Therefore, the coach price, p(x) = 250 - 10x

Business class price, p(y) = 750 - 50y

Coach tickets, q(x) = 2 + 4x

Business class tickets, q(y) = 6 + 2y  

Revenue R(x, y) = p(x) q(x) + q(y) q(y)

R(x, y) = (250-10x)(20+4x)+(750-50y)(6+2y)

R(x) = (250-10x)(0.4)+(20+4x)(-10)+0 = 0

1000-40x-200-40x=0

80x = 800

x = 10

R(y) = 0 + (750 - 50y)(0.2) + (6+2y)(-50) = 0

1500 - 100y+(-300-100y) = 0

200 y = 1200

y = 6

P(x) = 250 - 10(10) = $ 150

P(y) = 780-50(6) = $450

q(x) = 20 + 4(10) = 60

q(y) = 6 + 2(6) = 18

Maximum revenue = 150 x 60 + 450 x 18

                              = 9000 + 8100

                              = $ 17100

with explanation !!!​

Answers

Answer:

Their present ages are:

Her daughter's age = 12 years Women's age = 36 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

A woman is thrice as old as her daughter. 12 years hence, she will be twice as old as her daughter.

To Find:

Their present ages.

Let us assume:

Her daughter age be x. Women's age = 3x

After 12 years:

Her daughter's age = x + 12Women's age = 3x + 12

Finding their present ages:

According to the question.

⇒ 3x + 12 = 2(x + 12)

⇒ 3x + 12 = 2x + 24

⇒ 3x - 2x = 24 - 12

⇒ x = 12

Their present ages:

Her daughter's age = x = 12 years Women's age = 3x = (3 × 12) = 36 years

A company has machinery calibrated for a certain widget to manufacture the product so that all of the products will average out to a mean weight of 7 grams and a standard deviation of 2 grams. What would you expect as a sampling distribution if you were to take repeated samples of 100 widgets?

Answers

Answer:

By the Central Limit Theorem, the sampling distribution of repeated samples of 100 widgets would be approximately normal with mean 7 grams and standard deviation 0.2 grams.

Step-by-step explanation:

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

Mean weight of 7 grams and a standard deviation of 2 grams.

This means that [tex]\mu = 7, \sigma = 2[/tex]

Sample of 100:

This means that [tex]n = 100, s = \frac{2}{\sqrt{100}} = 0.2[/tex]

What would you expect as a sampling distribution if you were to take repeated samples of 100 widgets?

By the Central Limit Theorem, the sampling distribution of repeated samples of 100 widgets would be approximately normal with mean 7 grams and standard deviation 0.2 grams.
