On weekend nights, a large urban hospital has an average of 4.8 emergency arrivals per hour. Let X be the number of arrivals per hour on a weekend night at this hospital. Assume that successive arrivals are random and independent. What is the probability P(X < 3)?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

P(X < 3) = 0.14254

Step-by-step explanation:

We have only the mean, which means that the Poisson distribution is used to solve this question.

Poisson distribution:

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.

On weekend nights, a large urban hospital has an average of 4.8 emergency arrivals per hour.

This means that [tex]\mu = 4.8[/tex]

What is the probability P(X < 3)?

[tex]P(X < 3) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2)[/tex]

So

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

[tex]P(X = 0) = \frac{e^{-4.8}*4.8^{0}}{(0)!} = 0.00823[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 1) = \frac{e^{-4.8}*4.8^{1}}{(1)!} = 0.03950[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 2) = \frac{e^{-4.8}*4.8^{2}}{(2)!} = 0.09481[/tex]

So

[tex]P(X < 3) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) = 0.00823 + 0.03950 + 0.09481 = 0.14254[/tex]

P(X < 3) = 0.14254

how much water had evaported from the bucket at the end of week 2

what was the total amount of water that evaported in the four weeks

if javier orignally put 4 inches of water in the bucket how many inches of water were left after the experment was completed

Answers

Answer: [tex]\dfrac{3}{16},\ \dfrac{1}{2}, \dfrac{7}{2}\ \text{inch}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Javier created a table for the amount of water evaporated in each week

After two weeks, the amount of water evaporated is

[tex]\Rightarrow \dfrac{2}{16}+\dfrac{1}{16}\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{2+1}{16}=\dfrac{3}{16}\ \text{inch}[/tex]

Total amount of water evaporated in four weeks is

[tex]\Rightarrow \dfrac{2}{16}+\dfrac{1}{16}+\dfrac{3}{16}+\dfrac{2}{16}\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{2+1+3+2}{16}=\dfrac{8}{16}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{2}\ \text{inch}[/tex]

If Javier originally puts 4 inches of water, amount of water left in the bucket

[tex]\Rightarrow 4-\dfrac{1}{2}\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{4\times 2}{2}-\dfrac{1}{2}\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{8-1}{2}=\dfrac{7}{2}\ \text{inch}[/tex]

  x = 1, x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

You can see from the graph that the x-intercepts of f(x) are ...

  0 = f(-3)

  0 = f(3)

To find the corresponding values of x for f(x-4), we can solve ...

  0 = f(x -4)

  x -4 = -3   ⇒   x = 1

  x -4 = 3   ⇒   x = 7

"p implies q" is equivalent to "(p and q) or not p", which in turn is equivalent to "(p or not p) and (q or not p)". But "p or not p" is always true, so the implication reduces completely to "not p or q". Negating an implication thus gives "not (not p or q)", which is equivalent to "p and not q".

Step-by-step explanation:

two angles are complementary. The measure of one angle is 15° more than one-half of the measure of the other. Find the measure of each angle.​

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First you have to know two definitions. Well, you only have to know one for this problem, but you should probably learn the 2nd just to be thorough.

Definition 1: Complementary angles are two angles whose sum is 90 degrees.

Definition 2: Supplementary angles are two angles whose sum is 180 degrees.

For this problem, we'll work with the definition that says two complementary angles have a sum of 90 degrees.

Soooo, here are the facts from your problem: if one angle is 15 degree more than 2 times the other.find the measure of two angles.

Let's let the larger angle equal this: 15 + 2(x) (<--See how it is 15 degrees MORE than 2 times the other?)

Let's let the smaller angle equal: x

SO now our total equation is:

15 + 2(x) + x = 90

3x + 15 = 90 (combined like terms)

3x = 75 (subtracted 15 from both sides)

x = 25 (divided both sides by 3)

Now we know that one angle is 25. The other angle must add to 25 to make 90 degrees, so 90 - 25 = 65.

Therefore, your two angles are 25 and 65 degrees.

Does this check out? Let's see...

First: 25 + 65 = 90 Therefore, this checks out.

Second: The angle that is 65 degrees must be 15 degrees more than twice the other. So, let's take twice the other...... 25 * 2 = 50. And, let's add 15....50 + 15 = 65. Therefore YES, the 2nd angle is 15 more than 2 times the angle that was 25 degrees.

I hope this is helpful. :-)

A boy leaves station X on a bearing of 035' to station Y. which is 21km away. He then travels to another station Z on a bearing of 125 degrees . If Z is directly East of X, what is the distance from X to his present position?​

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  36.6 km

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume the initial bearing of the boy is 35°. Then he will make a 90° turn to a heading of 125°. A diagram shows the distance of interest is the hypotenuse of a right triangle in which 35° is the angle opposite the side of length 21 km.

The relevant trig relation is ...

  Sin = Opposite/Hypotenuse

  sin(35°) = (21 km)/XZ

  XZ = (21 km)/sin(35°) ≈ 36.61 km

The distance from X to Z is about 36.61 km.

_____

The attached diagram has the angles measured in the usual way for a Cartesian plane: CCW from the +x axis. This will correspond to bearing measures if we relabel the axes so that +x is North, and +y is East.

The formula for the lateral area of a right cone is LA = pi rs, where is the radius of the base and s is the slant height of the cone.

Answers

Answer:

r is the radius of the base and s is the slant height of the cone. From the options given, We can make s the subject of the formula. Hence: Option a) s equals StartFraction L A Over pi r EndFraction

Two equivalent equations are s = LA/πr and r = LA/πs

What is cone?

A cone is a shape formed using a series of line segments or lines that connect a common point, called a apex or vertex, to all points on the base of a circle that do not contain a vertex. The distance from the apex of the cone to the base is the height of the cone. A circular base has a measured radius value. And the length from the apex of the cone to any point around the base is the height of the slope. Equations for the surface area and volume of a cone can be derived from these quantities

Volume(V) = ⅓ πr²h cubic units

The total surface area of the cone = πrs + πr²

where, r is radius of the base, s is slant height and h is height of the cone

Given,

Lateral area of cone is denoted by LA

Lateral area of cone = πrs

where r is radius and s is slant height

⇒ LA = πrs

⇒ s = LA/πr

⇒ r = LA/πs

Hence, s = LA/πr and r = LA/πs are two equivalent equations in the given options.

The amount of a radioactive substance y that remains after t years is given by the equation y = a (e)^kt, where a is the initial
amount present and k is the decay constant for the radioactive substance. If a = 100, y = 50, and k = -0.035, find t.

Answers

Answer:

19.80

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation :

y = a (e)^kt

If a = 100, y = 50, and k = -0.035, find t.

50 = 100(e)^(-0.035t)

50/100 = e^(-0.035t)

0.5 = e^-0.035t

Take the In

In(0.5) = - 0.035t

-0.693147 = - 0.035t

-0.693147 / - 0.035 = t

19.8042 = t

Hence, t = 19.80

The perimeter of a square and rectangle is the same. The width of the rectangle is 6cm and it's area is 16cmsquare less than the area of the square. Find the area of the square

Answers

Answer:

Area of  square = 100 square cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the sides of a square be = a

Perimeter of a square = 4a

Let area of square = [tex]a^2[/tex]

Let the Length of rectangle be = [tex]l[/tex]

Given: width of the rectangle = 6 cm

Area of rectangle = length x breadth

          Perimeter of rectangle and square is equal.

          That is,

                     [tex]2(length + width) = 4a\\\\2(l + 6) = 4a\\\\l + 6 = 2a\\\\l = 2a - 6[/tex]

Therefore ,

    Area of rectangle

                              [tex]= Length \times width \\\\= (2a - 6) \times 6\\\\=6(2a - 6)[/tex]

Given area of rectangle is 16 less than area of square.

That is ,

         [tex]( 6(2a- 6) ) = a^2 - 16\\\\12a - 36 = a^2 - 16\\\\a^2 - 12a +20= 0\\\\a^2 - 2a -10a + 20 = 0\\\\a(a - 2) - 10(a - 2) = 0\\\\(a -10) ( a-2) = 0\\\\a = 10 , \ a = 2[/tex]

Check which value of 'a ' satisfies the equation:

[tex]\underline {when \ a = 2 }\\\\Length\ of \ rectangle \ l = 2a - 6 = 2 ( 2 ) - 6 = 4 - 6 = - 2. \\\\Length \ cannot \ be \ negative \ number. \\\\ \underline{ when \ a = 10 }\\\\Length \ of \ rectangle \ , l = 2a - 6 = 2 (10) - 6 = 20 - 6 = 14\\\\satisfies \ the \ conditions. \\\\Therefore , a = 10[/tex]

That is , side of the sqaure = 10

Therefore , area  of the square = 10 x 10 = 100 square cm.

Which would result in a lower price to first discount an item by 10% and then by a further 15%, OR to first discount an item by 15% and then by a further 10%. Justify your reasoning.

Answers

Answer:

Neither one. They will both result in the same price.

Step-by-step explanation:

To discount an item 10%, you charge 90% of the price of the item. To find 90% of a price, you multiply the price by 0.9.

To discount an item 15%, you charge 85% of the price of the item. To find 85% of a price, you multiply the price by 0.85.

Since multiplication is commutative, multiplying a number by 0.9 and then by 0.85 is the same as multiplying the number by 0.85 first and then by 0.9.

Let's say the item costs x.

Take off the 10% discount first: 0.9x

Now take off the 15% discount: 0.85 * (0.9x)

Now do it the other way.

Take off the 15% discount first: 0.85x

Now take off the 10% discount: 0.9 * (0.85x)

Since 0.85 * 0.9 * x = 0.9 * 0.85 * x, the results are the same.

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]

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

Buchtal, a manufacturer of ceramic tiles, reports on average 3.1 job-related accidents per year.

This means that [tex]\mu = 3.1[/tex]

What is the probability that more than one accident occurs per year?

This is:

[tex]P(X > 1) = 1 - P(X \leq 1)[/tex]

In which

[tex]P(X \leq 1) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1)[/tex]

Then

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

[tex]P(X = 0) = \frac{e^{-3.6}*(3.6)^{0}}{(0)!} = 0.0273[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 1) = \frac{e^{-3.6}*(3.6)^{1}}{(1)!} = 0.0984[/tex]

[tex]P(X \leq 1) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) = 0.0273 + 0.0984 = 0.1257[/tex]

[tex]P(X > 1) = 1 - P(X \leq 1) = 1 - 0.1257 = 0.8743[/tex]

0.8743 = 87.43% probability that more than one accident occurs per year

Answers

Answer:

2.-P = 0.38

3.-P [ Lb | Wt ]  =  0.788

Step-by-step explanation:

1.-Probability of choosing any box is, 1/3. So the probability of choosing the lucky box is 1/3

Let´s say the lucky box is the number 2 box  ( that consideration does not in any way change the problem generality)

Then we have

p₁ probability of choosing box  1 is 1/3   p₁´ Probability of win ticket is  0.12

p₂ probability of choosing box 2 is 1/3  p₂´Probability of win ticket is  0.90

p₃ probability of choosing box 3 is 1/3  p₃´ Probability of win ticket is  0.12

Then

P (of choosing a winning ticket is) = p₁*p₁´ + p₂*p₂´ +  p₃*p₃´

P  =  1/3*0.12 + 1/3*0.9 + 1/3*0.12

P  =  0.04 + 0.3 + 0.04

P = 0.38

3.- if I draw a winning ticket what is the probability it came from Lucky box

According to Bayes theorem

P [ Lb | Wt ]  =   P(Lb) * P[ Wt|Lb]/ P(Wt)

P(Lb) = 1/3  =  0.33333

P[Wt|Lb]  = 0.9

P(Wt) = 0.38

Then By substitution

P [ Lb | Wt ]  =  0.333 *  0.9 / 0.38

P [ Lb | Wt ]  =  0.788
