The number of days ahead travelers purchase their airline tickets can be modeled by an exponential distribution with the average amount of time equal to 15 days. Find the probability that a traveler will purchase a ticket fewer than ten days in advance. How many days do half of all travelers wait

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The right answer is:

(a) 0.4866

(b) 10.3972

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X be the number of days,

X is [tex]exp(\lambda)[/tex],

⇒ [tex]\lambda =\frac{1}{15}[/tex]

now,

⇒ [tex]F_x(x) = P(X \leq x)[/tex]

              [tex]=1-e^{-\lambda x}[/tex]

              [tex]=1-e^{-\frac{x}{15} }[/tex]

or,

[tex]x>0[/tex]

(a)

⇒ [tex]P(X<10)=F_x(10)[/tex]

                      [tex]=1-e^{\frac{10}{15} }[/tex]

                      [tex]=1-e^{\frac{2}{3} }[/tex]

                      [tex]=0.4866[/tex]

(b)

If the medium be m, then

[tex]P(X=m) = \frac{1}{2}[/tex]

                 [tex]=2^{-1}[/tex]

⇒[tex]1-e^{-\frac{m}{15} } = \frac{1}{2}[/tex]

        [tex]e^{-\frac{m}{15} } = 2^{-1}[/tex]

             [tex]m= 15\ ln2[/tex]

                 [tex]=10.3972[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

192

Step-by-step explanation:

Apply the geometric mean formula to solve for x, which is the altitude of the right triangle.

The formula is:

h = √(mn)

h = x = ?

m = 144

n = 400 - 144 = 256

Substitute

h = √(256*144)

h = √36,864

h = 192

Therefore, x = 192

Answer:

A. AG = 2 × GD

F. GE = (1/2) × BG

Step-by-step explanation:

The given point G on triangle ΔABC, which is the point of intersection of the medians of the triangle, is the centroid of the triangle

The centroid divides each median line in the ratio 2:1, therefore, we have;

The length of AG = 2 × GD, CG = 2 × GF, and BG = 2 × GE

∴ GE = (1/2) × BG

Therefore, the correct options are;

A. AG = 2 × GD, and F. GE = (1/2) × BG

Answer:

ST = 8 m

SU = 7 m

m∠Q = 75°

m∠S = 59°

m∠R = 46°

m∠U = 46°

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameter are;

ΔPQR is congruent to ΔSTU

In ΔPQR, m∠P = 59°, PR = 8 m, PQ = 7 m

In ΔSTU, m∠T = 75°

By Side-Angle-Side rule of congruence, and given that m∠P ≠ m∠T, we can have;

m∠S ≅ m∠P, by Congruent Parts of Congruent Triangles are Congruent, CPCTC

ST ≅ PR, SU ≅ PQ, m∠Q ≅ m∠T, m∠U ≅ m∠R

Therefore;

ST = PR = 8 m

ST = 8 m

SU = PQ = 7 m

SU = 7 m

m∠Q = m∠T = 75°

m∠Q = 75°

m∠S = m∠P = 59°

m∠S = 59°

m∠U = m∠R = 180 - (75° + 59°) = 46°

m∠R = 46°

m∠U = 46°.

The diagonal is the hypotenuese of a Right Triangle, so use the Pythagorean Theorom

Since it is a square a = b

2a^2 = 2500
a^2 =1250

A submarine cruises underwater at 20 km/h and on

distance of 650 km in 25 h. A linear system was
created and graphed

Answers

Answer:

System of equations:

20x + 30y = 650

x + y = 25

Time underwater = 10 hours

Time at the surface = 15 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = time underwater at 20 km/h.

Let y = time on the surface at 30 km/h.

speed = distance/time

distance = speed * time

distance underwater: 20x

distance on the surface: 30y

total distance: 650

20x + 30y = 650

total time: x + y

total time: 25

x + y = 25

20x + 30y = 650

x + y = 25

20x + 30y = 650

-20x - 20y = -500

--------------------------------

          10y = 150

              y = 15

x + y = 25

x + 15 = 25

x = 10
