Service calls arriving at an electric company follow a Poisson distribution with an average arrival rate of 5656 per hour. Find the average and standard deviation of the number of service calls in a 1515-minute period. Round your answer to three decimal places, if necessary.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The average number of service calls in a 15-minute period is of 14, with a standard deviation of 3.74.

Step-by-step explanation:

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. The variance is the same as the mean.

Average rate of 56 calls per hour:

This means that [tex]\mu = 56n[/tex], in which n is the number of hours.

Find the average and standard deviation of the number of service calls in a 15-minute period.

15 minute is one fourth of a hour, which means that [tex]n = \frac{1}{4}[/tex]. So

[tex]\mu = 56n = \frac{56}{4} = 14[/tex]

The variance is also 14, which means that the standard deviation is [tex]\sqrt{14} = 3.74[/tex]

The average number of service calls in a 15-minute period is of 14, with a standard deviation of 3.74.

What is the value of the missing angle?

Answers

68+47= 115
180-115= 65
the missing angle is 65°

Answer:

65°

Step-by-step explanation:

All angles in a triangle added up make 180° so you have to add 68° and 47° whih equals 115° and then simply subtract it from 180° so 180°-115°=65°

Which ordered pair is the solution to the system of linear equations y =-7x+2 and y = 9x-14?
• (-5,1)
• (1,-5)
(5,-1)
(-1,5)

Answers

Answer:

(1, -5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the system by setting the equations equal to each other, and solving for x:

-7x + 2 = 9x - 14

2 = 16x - 14

16 = 16x

1 = x

So, the x coordinate of the solution will be 1.

Plug in 1 as x into one of the equations, and solve for y

y = -7x + 2

y = -7(1) + 2

y = -7 + 2

y = -5

So, the y coordinate is -5.

The ordered pair solution is (1, -5)

A track star jumped 6 feet. The record is 84 inches. How much further does he need to jump to beat the record?

thank you!!

Answers

Answer:

12 inches or 1 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, convert the 6 feet to inches.

(There are 12 inches in 1 foot)

So, 6 feet is 72 inches (6 * 12)

Now, you can subtract this total from the record, to find how much farther he needs to jump:

84 - 72 = How much further

84 - 72 = 12

Therefore, he needs to jump 12 inches further.

To place in feet form, then convert 12 inches to feet.

(There are 12 inches in a foot)

So, 12 inches is 1 foot

Answer:

1 foot or 12 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there are 12 incher in every foot, we divide 84 by 12, giving us a total of 7ft. He has to jump 1 foot, or 12 inches more, to beat the record.

Answers

Answer:

f(x) = 4*(5/2)^x

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we know that our function has the points:

(0, 4)

(1, 10)

(2, 25)

The first one (0, 4) means that:

f(0) = 4.

Then you can evaluate the four given functions in x = 0 and see which ones meet this condition (have the outcome equal to 4)

Here we can discard the function f(x) = 15*x - 5 because:

f(0) = 15*0 - 5 = -5

Then this function is discarded.

Now let's look at the second point, (1, 10)

This means that f(1) = 10

Then you can evaluate the remaining functions in x = 1, and see if the outcome is equal to 10.

Here we can discard the first function f(x) = (x + 2)^2 because:

f(1) = (1 + 2)^2 = 3^2 = 9

So the output is not 10 as we wanted.

(while for the other two functions we have)

for f(x) = 6*x + 4

f(1) = 6*1 + 4 = 10

for f(x) = 4*(5/2)^x

f(1) = 4*(5/2)^1 = 4*(5/2) = (4/2)*5 = 10

Now we use the last point, (2, 25)

This means that when x = 2, the outcome needs to be equal to 25.

For the function f(x) = 6*x + 4 we have:

f(2) = 6*2 + 4 = 12 + 4 = 16

So we can discard this one.

Then we could conclude that the remaining option is the correct one, but let's ceck.

f(x) = 4*(5/2)^x

then for x = 2

f(2) = 4*(5/2)^2 = 4*(25/4) = 25

correct.

Then the correct option is f(x) = 4*(5/2)^x

Assume that the weight of cereal in a "12.6 ounce box" is N(µ,0.42). The Food and Drug Association (FDA) allows only a small percentage of boxes to contain less than 12.6 ounces. You collect a random sample of n = 35 boxes and find that the sample mean is 12.8. Test the null hypothesis H0: µ = 13 against the alternative hypothesis HA: µ < 13 at level of significance α = 0.01

Answers

Answer:

We reject the null hypothesis and accept the alternate hypothesis, that is, that the mean is less than 13 ounces.

Step-by-step explanation:

The null hypothesis is:

[tex]H_{0}: \mu = 13[/tex]

The alternate hypotesis is:

[tex]H_{a}: \mu < 13[/tex]

The test statistic is:

[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

In which X is the sample mean, [tex]\mu[/tex] is the value tested at the null hypothesis, [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.

13 is tested at the null hypothesis:

This means that [tex]\mu = 13[/tex]

N(µ,0.42)

This means that the standard deviation is 0.42, that is, [tex]\sigma = 0.42[/tex]

You collect a random sample of n = 35 boxes and find that the sample mean is 12.8.

This means that [tex]n = 35, X = 12.8[/tex]

Value of the test statistic:

[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

[tex]z = \frac{12.8 - 13}{\frac{0.42}{\sqrt{35}}}[/tex]

[tex]z = -2.82[/tex]

Pvalue of the test:

The pvalue of the test is the pvalue of z = -2.82.

Looking at the z table, z = -2.82 has a pvalue of 0.0024

0.0024 < 0.01, which means that we reject the null hypothesis and accept the alternate hypothesis, that is, that the mean is less than 13 ounces.

In a random sample of 8 ​people, the mean commute time to work was 35.5 minutes and the standard deviation was 7.4 minutes. A 90​% confidence interval using the​ t-distribution was calculated to be (30.5,40.5). After researching commute times to​ work, it was found that the population standard deviation is 9.3 minutes. Find the margin of error and construct a 90​% confidence interval using the standard normal distribution with the appropriate calculations for a standard deviation that is known. Compare the results.

Answers

Answer:

Margin of Error = 5.4088 ;

Confidence interval = (30.1 ; 40.9)

Interval estimate are almost the same

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Population standard deviation, σ = 9.3

Sample size, n = 8

Xbar = 35.5

Confidence level = 90%

The confidence interval:

Xbar ± Margin of error

Margin of Error = Zcritical * σ/sqrt(n)

Zcritical at 90% = 1.645

Margin of Error = 1.645 * 9.3/sqrt(8) = 5.4088

Confidence interval :

Xbar ± Margin of error

35.5 ± 5.4088

Lower boundary = (35.5 - 5.4088) = 30.0912 = 30.1

Upper boundary = (35.5 + 5.4088) = 40.9088 = 40.9

(30.1 ; 40.9)

T distribution =. (30.5 ; 40.5)

Normal distribution = (30.1, 40.9)

x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

6x-4y=18

3x+2y=-3, so 3x = -2y - 3, then x = (-2y - 3)/3

substitute for x:

6((-2y - 3)/3) - 4y = 18

2(-2y - 3) - 4y = 18

-4y - 6 - 4y = 18

-8y - 6 = 18

-8y = 24

y = -3
