Answer: a) P = 0.5, b) P = 0.07
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi!
Lets call X₁ the time at which you arrive, and X₂ the time at which Bob arrives. Both are random variables with uniform density in the interval [0, 60] (in minutes). Their joint distribuition is uniform over the square in the image, with value P = 1/(60*60) = 1/3600.
a) For you to get more cake than Bob, you should arrive earlier. This event is A = { X₁ < X₂ }, the shaded triangle in the figure.The area of this event (set) is half the total area of the square, so P(A) = 0.5.
It makes sense, beacuse its equally probable for you or Bob to arrive earlier, as both have uniform density over the time interval.
b) In this case you arrive later than Bob, but less than 5 minutes later. So the event is B = { X₂ < X₁ < (X₂ + 5) } . This is the gray shaded area in b) part of the image. Its area is the difference two triangles (half square - blue triangle), then the probability is:
Answer:
(a) The slope of f(x) is greater than the slope of g(x)
(b) f(x) has a greater y intercept
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Solving (a): Compare the slopes
The slope (m) of f(x) is calculated as;
This gives:
Substitute values for f(0) and f(1)
The slope of g(x) can be gotten using the following comparison
So:
Solving (b): Compare the y intercept
y intercept is when
From the table of f(x)
From the equation of g(x)

Answer:
2.89 percent chance
Step-by-step explanation:
so first if you divide 9200 and 47 you get a total of 195.74 .now if you combine the weight of each passenger and crew memeber and their luggage it has a mean of 200.4 pounds with a standard deviation of 69.3 pounds so their is a 2.89 percent chance im sure if not shoe me the nswers and i will give you th correct answer
Well, 217 miles ÷ 62 MPH is 3.5.
so it took the train 3.5 hours.
check it: 62 MPH x 3.5 hours, it went 217 miles
Answer:
It will take 7 years ( approx )
Step-by-step explanation:
Given equation that shows the amount of the substance after t years,
Where,
= Initial amount of the substance,
If the half life of the substance is 19 years,
Then if t = 19, amount of the substance = ,
i.e.
Taking ln both sides,
Now, if the substance to decay to 78% of its original amount,
Then
Again taking ln both sides,
Hence, approximately the substance would be 78% of its initial value after 7 years.
