A grocery store counts the number of customers who arrive during an hour. The average over a year is 10 customers per hour. Assume the arrival of customers follows a Poisson distribution. (It usually does.) Find the probability that at least one customer arrives in a particular one minute period. Round your answer to 3 decimals. Find the probability that at least two customers arrive in a particular 4 minute period. Round your answer to four decimals.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

0.1535 = 15.35% probability that at least one customer arrives in a particular one minute period.

0.1443 = 14.43% probability that at least two customers arrive in a particular 4 minute period.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a Poisson distribution, the probability that X represents the number of successes of a random variable is given by the following formula:

[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]

In which

x is the number of sucesses

e = 2.71828 is the Euler number

[tex]\mu[/tex] is the mean in the given interval.

Find the probability that at least one customer arrives in a particular one minute period.

The average is of 10 customers per hour(60 minutes), so for this case, [tex]\mu = \frac{10}{60} = \frac{1}{6}[/tex]

This is:

[tex]P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0)[/tex]

In which

[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = \frac{e^{-\frac{1}{6}}*(\frac{1}{6})^{0}}{(0)!} = 0.8465[/tex]

[tex]P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0) = 1 - 0.8465 = 0.1535[/tex]

0.1535 = 15.35% probability that at least one customer arrives in a particular one minute period.

Probability that at least two customers arrive in a particular 4 minute period.

The average is of 10 customers per hour(60 minutes), so for this case, [tex]\mu = \frac{10*4}{60} = \frac{4}{6} = \frac{2}{3}[/tex]

This probability is:

[tex]P(X \geq 2) = 1 - P(X < 2)[/tex]

In which

[tex]P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1)[/tex]

So

[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = \frac{e^{-\frac{2}{3}}*(\frac{2}{3})^{0}}{(0)!} = 0.5134[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 1) = \frac{e^{-\frac{2}{3}}*(\frac{2}{3})^{1}}{(1)!} = 0.3423[/tex]

[tex]P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) = 0.5134 + 0.3423 = 0.8557[/tex]

[tex]P(X \geq 2) = 1 - P(X < 2) = 1 - 0.8557 = 0.1443[/tex]

0.1443 = 14.43% probability that at least two customers arrive in a particular 4 minute period.

Jim is saving nickels, dimes and quarters to buy a baseball mitt. He has 12 more
dimes than quarters, and 8 fewer nickels than twice the number of quarters. The total
amount he has saved is $17.00. What number of each kind of coin he has

Answers

Answer:

36 quarters   48 dimes  64 nickels

Step-by-step explanation:

quarter = q

dime = q+12

nickel = 2q-8

$17 = 1,700 cents

(q)25 + (q+12)10 + (2q-8)5 = 1,700

25q +10q+120  +10q-40 =1,700

45q+80 = 1,700

45q = 1620

q= 36      

 36     QUARTERS x25 =  900cents

 48 DIMES    x10      =         480 cents

  64 NICKELS x 5 =             320 cents

  TOTAL                              1,700 cents ($17)

Answer:

The number is 4

Step-by-step explanation:

We set up the equation given the conditions listed. Since it says 5 times the difference between a number and 7, we can use x as a placeholder for the number.

(x-7) is the difference between the number and 7. The question asks for 5 times that difference thus we multiply the entire thing by 5 giving us 5(x-7. The question says that it all equals -15 so we set that expression equal to -15.

Thus we get the equation and solve:

5(x-7)= -15 (distributive property)

5x-35= -15 (add 35 to both sides)

5x=20 (divide by 5)

x=4; so the number is 4

Fatima opened a savings account with $7,500. She decided to deposit that same amount semiannually. This account earns 3.975% interest compounded semiannually. Exercises 5-7 are about Fatima's account. 5. What is the future value of the account after 10 years?​

Answers

Answer:

A = $11117.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following data;

Principal = $7,500

Interest rate = 3.975% = 3.975/100 = 0.03975

Number of times, n = 2

Time, t = 10 years

To find the future value, we would use the compound interest formula;

[tex] A = P(1 + \frac{r}{n})^{nt}[/tex]

Where;

A is the future value.

P is the principal or starting amount.

r is annual interest rate.

n is the number of times the interest is compounded in a year.

t is the number of years for the compound interest.

Substituting into the equation, we have;

[tex] A = 7500(1 + \frac{0.03975}{2})^{2*10}[/tex]

[tex] A = 7500(1 + 0.019875)^{20}[/tex]

[tex] A = 7500(1.019875)^{20}[/tex]

[tex] A = 7500(1.4823)[/tex]

A = $11117.25

Answer:

A. 0.2734 = 27.34% probability that there are an equal number of boys and girls

B. 0.2753 = 27.53% probability that she’ll answer exactly 5 questions correctly

Step-by-step explanation:

In each of these questions, the binomial probability distribution is used.

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.

A.The Murray family has produced 8 children.

What is the probability that there are an equal number of boys and girls?

8 children means that [tex]n = 8[/tex]

Each children is equally as likely to be a boy or a girl, which means that [tex]p = 0.5[/tex]

This probability is P(X = 4). So

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

[tex]P(X = 4) = C_{8,4}.(0.5)^{4}.(0.5)^{4} = 0.2734[/tex]

0.2734 = 27.34% probability that there are an equal number of boys and girls

B.Margie has the uncanny ability of being able to guess the correct answer to TRUE/FALSE questions with an 80% accuracy rate. Tomorrow’s test has 7 questions on it and she needs to answer 5 questions correctly in order to make the Honor Roll. If she guesses on every question, what is the probability that she’ll answer exactly 5 questions correctly?

80% accurracy rate means that [tex]p = 0.8[/tex]

7 questions means that [tex]n = 7[/tex]

The probability is P(X = 5). So

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

[tex]P(X = 5) = C_{7,5}.(0.8)^{5}.(0.2)^{2} = 0.2753[/tex]

0.2753 = 27.53% probability that she’ll answer exactly 5 questions correctly
