The distance between major cracks in a highway follows an exponential distribution with a mean of 5 miles. (a) What is the probability that there are no major cracks in a 10-mile stretch of the highway

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]P(Y=0) = 0.1353[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Exponential distribution mean [tex]\=x = 5 miles[/tex]

Distance [tex]d=10miles[/tex]

Generally the equation for Exponential distribution is mathematically given by

 [tex]\lambda=\frac{1}{E(X)}[/tex]

 [tex]\lambda=\frac{1}{5}[/tex]

Therefore

Possion Y

 [tex]10\lambda=10*(1/5)[/tex]

 [tex]10\lambda=2[/tex]

Generally the equation for  The probability that there are no major cracks in a 10 mile stretch of the highway is mathematically given by

 [tex]P(Y=0) = \frac{e-2 (2)0}{0!}[/tex]

 [tex]P(Y=0) = e-2[/tex]

 [tex]P(Y=0) = 0.1353[/tex]

Required:
a. Find the values of mean and standard deviation.
b. Is there a difference in the mean attention span Of the children for the various commercials?

Answers

Answer:

(a)

Mean

[tex]\bar x_1 = 31.375[/tex]

[tex]\bar x_2 = 41.75[/tex]

[tex]\bar x_3 = 53.00[/tex]

Standard deviation

[tex]\sigma_1 = 8.73[/tex]

[tex]\sigma_2 = 7.65[/tex]

[tex]\sigma_3 = 6.04[/tex]

(b) Yes, there is a difference in the mean

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving (a): The mean and standard deviation of each commercial

This is calculated as:

[tex]\bar x = \frac{\sum x}{n}[/tex]

For clothes:

[tex]\bar x_1 = \frac{43+24+42+35+28+31+17+31}{8}[/tex]

[tex]\bar x_1 = \frac{251}{8}[/tex]

[tex]\bar x_1 = 31.375[/tex]

For food:

[tex]\bar x_2 = \frac{30+38+46+54+47+42+34+43}{8}[/tex]

[tex]\bar x_2 = \frac{334}{8}[/tex]

[tex]\bar x_2 = 41.75[/tex]

For toys:

[tex]\bar x_3 = \frac{52+58+43+49+63+53+48+58}{8}[/tex]

[tex]\bar x_3 = \frac{424}{8}[/tex]

[tex]\bar x_3 = 53.00[/tex]

The sample standard deviation is:

[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{\frac{\sum(x - \bar x)^2}{n-1}}[/tex]

For clothes:

[tex]\sigma_1 = \sqrt{\frac{(43 - 31.375)^2 +.............+(31 - 31.375)^2}{8-1}}[/tex]

[tex]\sigma_1 = \sqrt{\frac{533.875}{7}[/tex]

[tex]\sigma_1 = \sqrt{76.2678571429}[/tex]

[tex]\sigma_1 = 8.73[/tex]

For food:

[tex]\sigma_2 = \sqrt{\frac{(30 - 41.75)^2 +............+(43 - 41.75)^2}{8-1}}[/tex]

[tex]\sigma_2 = \sqrt{\frac{409.5}{7}}[/tex]

[tex]\sigma_2 = \sqrt{58.5}[/tex]

[tex]\sigma_2 = 7.65[/tex]

For toys:

[tex]\sigma_3 = \sqrt{\frac{(52-53.00)^2+...................+(58-53.00)^2}{8}}[/tex]

[tex]\sigma_3 = \sqrt{\frac{292}{8}}[/tex]

[tex]\sigma_3 = \sqrt{36.5}[/tex]

[tex]\sigma_3 = 6.04[/tex]

Solving (b): Difference in mean in the commercials;

In (a), we have:

[tex]\bar x_1 = 31.375[/tex]

[tex]\bar x_2 = 41.75[/tex]

[tex]\bar x_3 = 53.00[/tex]

[tex]\bar x_1 \ne \bar x_2 \ne \bar x_3[/tex]

Hence, there is a difference in their means

Given the system of equations, what is the solution? 2x+y = -1 х- у = -5​

Answers

Answer:

x=-2, y=3

Step-by-step explanation:

make it easy first, solve for x in the second equation: x= -5+y.

then sub that in for the other x: 2(-5+y)+y= -1

now combine like terms: -10+3y= -1

solve for y: 3y=9, y= 3

then replace y for your second equation: x-3= -5

solve for x= -5+3.... so then its -2

check by replacing all variables with your new solutions:

2(-2), which is -4+3 does equal -1

(-2) -3 does equal -5.

your answers are x=-2, y=3

660cm", find its radius. please help me .....
I will give brainliest. ​

Answers

Answer:

21 times 660 and then you will get the answer

Mark Brainliest please

Answer: 5 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Curved Surface area of a cylinder formula :-

2.pie*r*h (where r is the radius)
Height = 21 cm

Curved Surface area of the cylinder = 660 cm2

So, 2* pie* r* h = 660 (Here I will assume pie to be 22/7)

And 2* 22/7 * 21* r = 660

And 132 * r = 660
Therefore, r = 660/132 = 5cnn

Therefore radius of the cylinder = 5 cm

Answer:

  J. 2085

Step-by-step explanation:

Fill in the desired value for y and solve for x.

  1500 = 50(1.05^x)

  30 = 1.05^x . . . . . . . divide by 50

  log(30) = x·log(1.05) . . . . . take logarithms

  x = log(30)/log(1.05) ≈ 69.71

Since x represents years after December 2015, x = 69.7 will be some time in mid 2085.

The relation between the functions f(x), g(x), and h(x) will be f(x)/g(x) is equal to h(x). Then the correct option is B.

What is a function?

A statement, principle, or policy that creates the link between two variables is known as a function. Functions are found all across mathematics and are required for the creation of complex relationships.

The functions are given below.

f(x) = 3x³ + 9x² - 12x

g(x) = x - 1

h(x) = 3x² + 12x

The function f(x) can be written as

f(x) = 3x(x² + 3x - 4)

f(x) = 3x(x² + 4x - x - 4)

f(x) = 3x(x + 4)(x - 1)

f(x) = (x - 1)(3x² + 12)

Then divide the function f(x) by the function g(x), then we have

f(x) / g(x) = (x - 1)(3x² + 12) / (x - 1)

f(x) / g(x) = (3x² + 12)

f(x) / g(x) = h(x)

Maybe you want to find f(0) in each case. Put 0 where x is, and do the arithmetic.

A motorboat travels 9 miles downstream (with the current) in 30 minutes. The return trip upstream (against the wind) takes 90 minutes. Which system of equations can be used to find x, the speed of the boat in miles per hour, and y, the speed of the current in miles per hour? Recall the formula d = rt.

Answers

Answer:

x=12 mile/hour(the speed of the boat)

y=6 mile/hour(the speed of the current)

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the Question,

let, x be the speed of the boat in miles per hour and y be the speed of the current in miles per hour.

Given That, A motorboat travels 9 miles downstream (with the current) in 30 minutes. Thus, x+y = 0.3 mile/minute ⇒ 0.3×60 ⇒ 18mile/hour

x+y=18 ---- Equation 1

& The return trip upstream (against the wind) takes 90 minutes. Thus, x-y = 0.1 mile/minute ⇒ 0.1×60 ⇒ 6mile/hour

x-y=6 ---- Equation 2

On Adding both above Equations We get,

2x=24  ⇔ x=12 mile/hour(the speed of the boat)

& x+y=18 put Value of x=12 we get  ⇔ y=6 mile/hour(the speed of the current)

Solution:

Two linear equation has no solutions if they are parallel line.

Slope formula:

[tex]m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

We know that the slopes of two parallel lines are the same.

So, the given system of given linear equation has no solutions if

Slope of line A = Slope of line B
