The phone lines to an airline reservation system are occupied 61% of the time. Assume that the events that the lines are occupied on successive calls are independent. If 11 calls are placed, what is the probability that the lines are occupied for exactly 5 calls

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

0.1373 = 13.73% probability that the lines are occupied for exactly 5 calls

Step-by-step explanation:

For each call, there are only two possible outcomes. Either the lines are occupied, or they are not. The events that the lines are occupied on successive calls are independent. This means that we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

And p is the probability of X happening.

The phone lines to an airline reservation system are occupied 61% of the time.

This means that [tex]p = 0.61[/tex]

If 11 calls are placed, what is the probability that the lines are occupied for exactly 5 calls

This is P(X = 5) when n = 11. So

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 5) = C_{11,5}.(0.61)^{5}.(0.39)^{6} = 0.1373[/tex]

0.1373 = 13.73% probability that the lines are occupied for exactly 5 calls

Answers

Answer:

Your answer is 37

Step-by-step explanation:

Caanan is 62 miles away and since he drives at 50 miles per hour, and if it is 2:30 then 30 minutes is half a hour, which means you divide 50 in half by 2 and get 25. After you do that then you subtract 62 and 25 to get your answer 37. Have a good day!!! :)

Maria recently hired a plumber to do some necessary work. On the final bill, Maria was charged a total of $473. The amount listed for parts was $335 and the rest of the bill was for labor. If the hourly rate for labor was $46, how many hours of labor was needed to complete the job?

(A) First write an equation you can use to answer this question. Use x as your variable. The equation is __________________

(B) Solve your equation in part (A) to find the number of labor hours needed to do the job. Answer: The number of labor hours was ________________________

Answers

Answer:

A)473 = 335 - 46x

B) 3

Step-by-step explanation:

A)

473 = 335 - 46x

x = the hours of labor needed.

B)

Solve for x

473 = 335 - 46x

subtract 335 from both sides

138 = 46x

divide both sides by 46

3 = x

Answer:

A) [tex]46x+335=473[/tex]  B)[tex]x=3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

473 is the total amount, which means it is the end result

335 represents a constant since it is a base price

the hourly rate is a variable, due to the fact that it depends on how many hours he spent working.

variable + constant = total price

[tex]46x+335=473[/tex]

Now to solve this, first subtract [tex]335[/tex] from both sides

[tex]46x=138[/tex]

Next divide both sides by [tex]46[/tex] to isolate the variable

[tex]x= \frac{138}{46}[/tex]

This can be simplified to: [tex]x=3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

bc

Answer:

(2/5)√5

Step-by-step explanation:

from the sine rule (see attached for reference), we can construct the following relationship

12/sinθ  = (6√5) / sin 90°

recall that sin 90° = 1, hence our equation becomes:

12/sinθ  = (6√5) / 1

12/sinθ  = (6√5)   (rearranging)

12 ÷ (6√5)  = sin θ

sin θ = 12 / (6√5)

sin θ = 2 / √5   (moving radical to numerator by multiplying by √5/√5)

= 2 / √5     x     √5/√5

= 2√5 / 5

= (2/5)√5

Answer:

46940064

Step-by-step explanation:

1)

The angle of inclination is the angle between the horizontal and the ramp.

Using the sine ratio in the right triangle formed by the ground and the ramp

let x be the angle of inclination, then

sinx = \frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}

hypotenuse

opposite

= \frac{0.7}{4.2}

4.2

0.7

, then

x = sin^{-1}sin

−1

(\frac{0.7}{4.2}

4.2

0.7

) ≈ 10° ( to the nearest degree )

(2)

Again there is a right triangle between the ground and the vertical height of the kite, with hypotenuse being length of string.

let y be the height of the kite and x the horizontal distance, then

sin27° = \frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}

hypotenuse

opposite

= \frac{y}{176}

176

y

( multiply both sides by 176 )

176 × sin27° = y , then

y ≈ 80m ( to the nearest metre ) ← height of kite

and

cos27° = \frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}

hypotenuse

adjacent

= \frac{x}{176}

176

x

( multiply both sides by 176 )

176 × cos27° = x , then

x ≈ 157m ( to the nearest metre ) ← horizontal distance
