The time spent waiting in the line is approximately normally distributed. The mean waiting time is 6 minutes and the variance of the waiting time is 9. Find the probability that a person will wait for more than 9 minutes.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

0.1587 = 15.87% probability that a person will wait for more than 9 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

The mean waiting time is 6 minutes and the variance of the waiting time is 9.

This means that [tex]\mu = 6, \sigma = \sqrt{9} = 3[/tex]

Find the probability that a person will wait for more than 9 minutes.

This is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 9. So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{9 - 6}{3}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1[/tex] has a p-value of 0.8413.

1 - 0.8413 = 0.1587

0.1587 = 15.87% probability that a person will wait for more than 9 minutes.

6.(a) A laptop was bought at Canadian $ 770. If the tax of 20% and 13% VAT should be paid, find the least selling price of it in Nepali rupee that prevents the shopkeeper from loss?​

Answers

The LEAST selling price of the laptop should be ;

$1024.1 in other to avoid loss.

Price of laptop = $770

Tax = 20%

VAT = 13%

TO avoid loss ;

both the VAT percentage and TAX must be added to the price of the laptop:

Total percentage = VAT + TAX = (20 + 13) = 33%

THEREFORE, Least selling price should be :

Price of laptop * (1 + 33%)

770 * 1.33

= $1024.1
