When a bus service reduces fares, a particular trip from New York City to Albany, New York, is very popular. A small bus can carry four passengers. The time between calls for tickets is exponentially distributed with a mean of 30 minutes. Assume that each caller orders one ticket. What is the probability that the bus is filled in less than 3 hours from the time of the fare reduction

Answers

Answer 1

The probability that the bus is filled in less than 3 hours from the time of the fare reduction is 0.8488

Let the time for calls for tickets is denoted by x.

The time between calls for tickets is exponentially distributed, with a mean of 30 minutes.

[tex]X \sim Exp(\lambda = \frac{1}{30})[/tex]

A small bus can carry four passengers. We have to find the probability that  the bus is filled in less than 3 hours from the time of the fare reduction.

That means there are more than 4 passengers in less than 180 minutes (3 hours).

Let N be the number of seats filled in 3 hours.

Then,

[tex]N \sim Poisson(\lambda t)[/tex]

Or,

[tex]N \sim Poisson(\frac{1}{30} \times180)[/tex]

[tex]N \sim Poisson(6)[/tex]

Then the required probability is:

[tex]P(N\geq 4) = 1 - P(N < 4)[/tex]      --------(1)

PDF for Poisson random variable with parameter λ is give by:

[tex]P(X =x) = \dfrac{{e^{-{\lambda}} {\lambda}^x}}{x!}[/tex]

Then for the variable N

P(N<4) = P(N=0)+P(N=1)+P(N=2)+P(N=3)

[tex]P(N < 4) = \dfrac{{e^{-{6}} {6}^3}}{3!} +\dfrac{{e^{-{6}} {6}^2}}{2!} +\dfrac{{e^{-{6}}{6}^1}}{1!}+\dfrac{{e^{-{6}} {6}^0}}{0!}[/tex]

On solving the above:

P(N<4) =0.0892+ 0.0446+0.0149+0.0025

P(N<4)= 0.1512

Substitute this value in (1)

P(N≥4) =1-0.1512

P(N≥4) =1-0.1512

P(N≥4) =0.08488

Hence, the required probability is 0.8488.

What is the slope of the line? x+3y=10

Answers

Answer:

m = -1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

First, write the equation in slope-intercept form:

3y = 10 - x

y = 10/3 - x/3

y = 10/3 - 1/3x

Since our slope is the coefficient of the x term, our slope is -1/3.

Solve the equation below algebraically for the exact value of x. 6 − 23(x + 5) = 4x

Answers

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

6 - 23(x+5) = 4x

First, distribute.

6 - 23x - 115 = 4x

Reorder the terms.

6 - 115 - 23x = 4x

Subtract.

-109 -23x = 4x

Add 23x to both sides.

-109 = 27x

Divide by 27.

x = -109/27 (This cannot be simplified)

6-23(x+5)=4x

6-23x-115=4x

-109=27x

Which linear inequality is represented by the graph?

Answers

Answer:

B.  y ≤ 1/2x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Well we can start by finding the y-intercept which is the point on the line that touches the y-axis in this case it’s 3.

And by looking at the shade it is facing down and the line is solid so the inequality starts with y ≤,

So we can cross out answer choices C. and D.

And the slope is 1/2 because that’s how far away each points are from each other.

So the inequality is y ≤ 1/2x + 3

A. 180°cw rotation about the origin
В. 270°cw rotation about the origin
C. 180ºccw rotation about the origin
D. 270ºccw rotation about the origin

Answers

Answer:

В. 270°cw rotation about the origin

Step-by-step explanation:

We can rotate a total of 360 degrees in a circular pattern.

If we rotate x degrees in one direction, this rotation is equivalent to rotating (360 - x) in the other direction, because we would arrive in the same place.

So if we rotate 90 degrees in the counter clockwise direction, this is equivalent to rotating (360 - 90) = 270 degrees in the opposite direction, that is, in the clockwise direction.

So the correct option is B. -> 270°cw rotation about the origin.

Answers

Answer:

y = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Put x as -19 and solve for y.

2(-19) - 5y = -28

Multiply.

-38 - 5y = -28

Add 38 on both sides of the equation.

-5y = -28 + 38

-5y = 10

Divide both sides by -5.

y = 10/-5

y = -2

Answer:

2x - 5y = -28

when x = - 19

Substitute the value of x into the equation

That's

2(-19) - 5y = -28

-38 - 5y = -28

-5y = -28 + 38

-5y = 10

Divide both sides by - 5

We get

y = 10/-5

y = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

A function shows relationship between variables usually between inputs (an independent variable) and outputs (a dependent variable).

C(F) = 5/9(F - 32) shows the relationship between C and F. C(F) is the temperature in degree Celsius for any temperature in Fahrenheit. This means that the function C(F) represents the conversion of temperature from Fahrenheit to degree Celsius.

2x ≥ 50

Divide 2 by both sides

(3 - 4x + 8x²) + (-6 + 2x - 5x²)

Distribute the positive sign to (-6 + 2x - 5x²). So all of these terms will stay the same and maintain their original signs.

3 - 4x + 8x² - 6 + 2x - 5x²

Combine like terms.

triangle ABC has vertices A(5, 12) B(13, 13) and C (11,5). show that the triangle ABC is. scalene triangle

Answers

Answer:

AB =√( (13 - 5)² + (13-12)²) = √(8² + 1²) = √65

BC = √( (13 - 11)² + (13-5)²) = √(2² + 8²) = √68

AC =√( (11 - 5)² + (5-12)²) = √(6² + 7²) = √85

AB ≠ BC ≠ AC ∴ ABC is Scalene

Step-by-step explanation:

A scalene triangle is a triangle in which all the sides are different lengths.

In order to prove that ABC is scalene, we need to calculate the sidelengths and show them to be different.

The line between points A(x₁, y₁) and B(x₂, y₂) can be denoted AB.

the difference in x-coordinate is x₂ - x₁, and the difference in y-coordinates is y₂ - y₁.

this forms a triangle of length x₂ - x₁ and height y₂ - y₁ and the hypotenuse AB can be calculated using pythagoras' theorem:

AB = √((x₂ - x₁)² +(y₂ - y₁)²)

The triangle ABC with vertices A(5, 12) B(13, 13) and C (11,5) is a scalene triangle.

What is Triangle?

A triangle is a three-sided polygon that consists of three edges and three vertices.

The given three vertices of triangle ABC are A(5, 12) B(13, 13) and C (11,5).

We know that in a scalene triangle all the three sides lengths are different.

Let us find distance of AB,BC, CA

Distance=√(x₂-x₁)²+(y₂-y₁)²

A(5,12), B(13, 13)

AB=√(13-5)²+(13-12)²

=√8²+1²=√64+1=√65

B(13, 13) C (11,5).

BC=√(11-13)²+(5-13)²

=√4+64=√68

C (11,5).A(5,12),

CA=√(5-11)²+(12-5)²

=√(-6)²+(7)²

=√36+49=√85

The lengths of triangle ABC are different so the triangle is Scalene.

Hence the triangle ABC with vertices A(5, 12) B(13, 13) and C (11,5) is a scalene triangle.

Melanie began studying a sample of the chemical element einsteinium-253 which naturally loses its mass over time. The relationship between the elapsed time, t, in days, since Melanie started studying the sample, and the total mass remaining in the sample, M(t), in micrograms, is modeled by the following function: M(t)=169⋅(0.96)^t. How much percent does the chemical element lose weight by everyday?

Answers

Answer:

The chemical element loses 4% of its weight everyday

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we are interested in knowing the percentage weight loss of the chemical each day.

The key to answering this is looking at the expression inside the bracket.

We can express M(t) = 169•(0.96)^t as

M(t) = 169•(1-0.04)^t

So what this means is that we need to find the percentage value corresponding to 0.04 since it is a constant term here

Mathematically, 0.04 is same as 4/100, so we can clearly say that the constant percentage loss is 4%

Answer:

0.96

Step-by-step explanation:

The exponential function modeling the mass of the sample is of the form M(t)=A⋅Bt. Therefore, AAA determines the initial mass of the sample (when Clemence began studying it) and BBB determines the daily change in the mass of the sample.

The mass of the sample is multiplied by \it{0.96}0.960, point, 96 every day. Since 0.96<10.96<10, point, 96, is less than, 1, the mass of the sample shrinks by a factor of 0.960.960, point, 96 every day.

Every day, the mass of the sample shrinks by a factor of 0.960.960, point, 96.
