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]

Solve Q²= a(p²-b²)/p in form of y=mx+c

Answers

Answer:

We want to rewrite:

q^2 = a*(p^2 - b^2)/p

as a linear equation, in the form:

y = m*x + c

So we start with:

q^2 = a*(p^2 - b^2)/p

we can expand the left side to get:

q^2 = (a/p)*p^2 - (a/p)*b^2

q^2 = a*p - (a/p)*b^2

Now we can ust define:

a*p = c

Then we can replace that to get:

q^2 = -(a/p)*b^2 + c

now we can replace:

q^2 = y

b^2 = x

Replacing these, we get:

y = -(a/p)*x + c

finally, we can replace:

-(a/p) = m

then we got the equation:

y = m*x + c

where:

y = q^2

x = b^2

c = a*p

m = -(a/p)

Solve the following inequality: |2x|<14 A. 7

Answers

Answer:

x<7

Step-by-step explanation:

it just is

Answer:

x > 7

 x < -7

Step-by-step explanation:

Absolute value inequalitiy entered

     |2x| > 14

Clear the absolute-value bars by splitting the equation into its two cases, one for the Positive case and the other for the Negative case.

The Absolute Value term is |2x|

For the Negative case we'll use -(2x)  

For the Positive case we'll use (2x)

-(2x) > 14  

    Multiply

     -2x > 14  

    Divide both sides by 2

     -x > 7  

    Multiply both sides by (-1)

    Remember to flip the inequality sign

     x < -7  

    Which is the solution for the Negative Case

(2x) > 14  

    Divide both sides by 2

     x > 7  

    Which is the solution for the Positive Case

x < -7

 x > 7

The 12th term of the arithmetic sequence is 10.5. The 18th term of this sequence is 13.5. Find the common difference and the first term.

Answers

Answer:

Common difference = 0.5

First term = 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

the 12th term a12 = a1 + d(12-1)   where a1 = first term and d = the common difference.

So a1 + 11d = 10.5 ....(A)    Similarly:

a1 + 17d = 13.5....(B)

Subtracting equations:

(B) - (A) :-

6d = 13.5 - 10.5 = 3

d = 3/6 = 0.5

From equation (A):

a1 + 11(0.5) = 10.5

a1 = 10.5 -5.5 = 5.

help mePsychologists striving to understand the human mind may study the nervous system. Learning how the cells and organs (like the brain) function, help us understand the biological basis behind human psychology. The nervous system is composed of two basic cell types: glial cells (also known as glia) and neurons. Glial cells, which outnumber neurons ten to one, are traditionally thought to play a supportive role to neurons, both physically and metabolically. Glial cells provide scaffolding on which the nervous system is built, help neurons line up closely with each other to allow neuronal communication, provide insulation to neurons, transport nutrients and waste products, and mediate immune responses. Neurons, on the other hand, serve as interconnected information processors that are essential for all of the tasks of the nervous system. This section briefly describes the structure and function of neurons.​

find the measure of the indicated angle to the nearest degree​

Answers

Answer:

[tex]20^{\circ}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

In any right triangle, the cosine of an angle is equal to its adjacent side divided by the hypotenuse.

Let the angle we want to find be [tex]\theta[/tex]. [tex]\theta[/tex]'s adjacent side is 49 and the hypotenuse of the triangle is 52.

Therefore, we have the equation:

[tex]\cos \theta=\frac{49}{52}[/tex]

Take the inverse cosine of both sides:

[tex]\arccos (\cos \theta)=\arccos(\frac{49}{52})[/tex]

Simplify using [tex]\arccos (\cos \theta)=\theta \text{ for }\theta \in (0, 180^{\circ})[/tex]:

[tex]\theta=\arccos(\frac{49}{52}),\\\theta=19.557214,\\\theta\approx \boxed{20^{\circ}}[/tex]
