The time between arrivals of small aircraft at a county airport is exponentially distributed with a mean of one hour. (a) What is the probability that more than three aircraft arrive within an hour? (b) If 30 separate one-hour intervals are chosen, what is the probability that no interval contains more than three arrivals?(c) Determine the length of an interval of time (in hours) such that the probability that no arrivals occur during the interval is 0.10.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

(a) The probability that more than three arrive in one hour is approximately 0.018988

(b) The probability that no interval contains more than 3 arrivals in 30 separate one-hour intervals is approximately 0.56264

(c) The length of time such that the probability of no arrival is 0.1 is approximately 2.30259 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

The distribution of the arrival time of a small aircraft = Exponential distribution

The mean arrival time, μ = 1 hour

The pdf of a exponential distribution, f(x) = λ·e^(-λ·x)

The mean, μ = 1/λ

∴ 1 = 1/λ

λ = 1 hour

∴ For the exponential distribution, f(x) = 1·e^(-x)

(a) The Poisson probability is given as follows;

[tex]P(X = k) = \dfrac{\lambda^k \times e^{-k}}{k!}[/tex]

The probability for more than 3 is given as follows;

[tex]P(X > 3) = 1 - \dfrac{1^0 \times e^{-1}}{0!} - \dfrac{1^1 \times e^{-1}}{1!} - \dfrac{1^2 \times e^{-1}}{2!} - \dfrac{1^3 \times e^{-1}}{3!} \approx 0.018988[/tex]

(b) P(X ≤ 3) for 30 1 hour intervals = P(X ≤ 3)³⁰ = (1 - 0.018988)³⁰ ≈ 0.56264

(c) When the probability that no arrival occurs is 0.1, we have;

0.1 P(X > x) = f(x) = 1·e^(-x) = e^(-x)

-x·ln(e) = ln(0.1)

∴ x = -㏑(0.1) ≈ 2.30259

The length of time such that the probability that no arrival occur during the interval is 0.1, x ≈ 2.30259 hours.

A vase in the shape of a cylinder has a radius of 4.3 centimeters and a volume of 1330.2 cubic centimeters, as
shown in the diagram.
What is the height of the vase in centimeters? Round your answer to the nearest tenth.

Answers

Answer:

h = 22.91 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The volume of a vase, A = 1330.2 cm³

Radius of the vase, r = 4.3 cm

We need to find the height of the vase. The formula for the volume of a cylinder is given by :

[tex]V=\pi r^2 h\\\\h=\dfrac{V}{\pi r^2}\\\\h=\dfrac{1330.2 }{3.14\times (4.3)^2}\\\\h=22.91\ cm[/tex]

or

h = 23 cm

So, the height of the vase is equal to 23 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

*note- this method only works because the denominator values are being multiplied, if they were being added then there are extra steps to keep in mind but for now this is simple*

Start by dividing the root 12 in the numerator by the root 2 in the denominator

[tex]\frac{\sqrt{12} }{\sqrt{2} }=\sqrt{6}[/tex]

Then we simply substitute back in the 2 (from the denominator) that we ignored for a second to get our answer

[tex]\frac{\sqrt{6} }{2}[/tex]

*note- if you are allowed to use a calculator then you could also plug in your values to check each answer option but since this question isn't too complicated there should be no need to do so unless you forget how to solve it algebraically*

Suppose the population of a town is 17,400 and is growing 2% each year.
Predict the population after 9 years.

Answers

Answer: 20,532

Step-by-step explanation:

17,400(.02)=348

348(9)=3132

17,400+3132=20,532

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is an exponential growth function of the form:

[tex]y=ab^x[/tex] where a is the initial population and b is the growth rate. This could also be written as

[tex]y=a(1+r)^x[/tex] which is a bit more accurate. We'll use that one. r is the percent growth: 2% for us.

Filling in the formula:

[tex]y=17400(1+.02)^x[/tex] and then simplifying:

[tex]y=17400(1.02)^x[/tex]

That's the model for this population. Filling in any number of years for x will give you the population y. Our time is 9 years:

[tex]y=17400(1.02)^9[/tex]

Take care of the exponents first, giving us:

[tex]y=17400(1.195092569)[/tex] and then multiply to get

y = 20,794.6 or 20,794 people (since you can't have 6/10 of a person)

IM NOT SMART SUBSTITUTION METHOD AGAIN

Answers

Answer:

x = 6

y = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

15x + 31y = -3

we are given that x =( - y + 3 )

so in the equation 15x + 31y = -3 we substitute "x" for ( -y + 3 ) and we solve for y

so 15 ( -y + 3 ) + 31y = -3

now we use basic algebra to solve for y

step 1 distribute the 15

15 * -y = -15y

15 * 3 = 45

now we have 45 - 15y + 31y = -3

step 2 combine like terms

-15 + 31y = 16y

now we have 45 + 16y = -3

step 3 subtract 45 from each side  

-3 - 45 = -48

45 - 45 cancels out

now we have 16y = -48

step 4 divide each side by 16

16y/16=y

-48/16=-3

we're left with y = -3

Now to find x we substitute -3 for y in x  = -y + 3

* substitute *

x = - ( -3) + 3

the two negative signs cancel out and we get x = 3 + 3

3 + 3 = 6

we're left with x = 6
