Occasionally an airline will lose a bag. a small airline has found it loses an average of 2 bags each day. find the probability that, on a given day,

Answers

Answer 1

We can use the Poisson distribution to solve this problem.

Let X be the number of bags lost by the airline in a given day. Then, X follows a Poisson distribution with parameter λ = 2, since the airline loses an average of 2 bags each day.

The probability of losing exactly k bags on a given day is given by the Poisson probability mass function:

P(X = k) = e^(-λ) (λ^k) / k!

Substituting λ = 2, we get:

P(X = k) = e^(-2) (2^k) / k!

We can use this formula to calculate the probabilities for the requested scenarios:

(a) Probability of losing no bags on a given day (k = 0):

P(X = 0) = e^(-2) (2^0) / 0! = e^(-2) ≈ 0.1353

(b) Probability of losing at least 3 bags on a given day (k ≥ 3):

P(X ≥ 3) = 1 - P(X ≤ 2)

We can calculate P(X ≤ 2) as follows:

P(X ≤ 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2)

= e^(-2) (2^0) / 0! + e^(-2) (2^1) / 1! + e^(-2) (2^2) / 2!

≈ 0.4060

Therefore,

P(X ≥ 3) = 1 - P(X ≤ 2) ≈ 0.5940

(c) Probability of losing exactly 1 bag on each of the next 3 days:

Since the number of bags lost on each day is independent, the probability of losing exactly 1 bag on each of the next 3 days is given by the product of the individual probabilities:

P(X = 1)^3 = [e^(-2) (2^1) / 1!]^3 = e^(-6) (2^3) / 1!^3 ≈ 0.0048

Equation for pets? Equations for cost?

Answers

Answer:

a) How many of the pets were birds and how many were fish?

Number of birds = x = 28

Number of fish = y = 202

b) Equation for pets?

x + y = 230....... Equation 1

c) Equations for cost?

9x + 4y = 1060...... Equation 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The pet store has an abundance of birds and fish and is selling them at a great price there are 230 of these pets In the store the cost for a bird is $9 and the cost per fish is $4 the store sold all the pets in a weekend blow out sale and made $1060 how many of the pets were birds and how many were fish? Equation for pets? Equations for cost?

Let us represent:

Number of birds = x

Number of fish = y

The pet store has an abundance of birds and fish and is selling them at a great price there are 230 of these pets

x + y = 230....... Equation 1

x = 230 - y

In the store the cost for a bird is $9 and the cost per fish is $4 the store sold all the pets in a weekend blow out sale and made $1060

$9 × x + $4 × y = $1060

9x + 4y = 1060...... Equation 2

We substitute 230 - y for x

9(230 - y) + 4y = 1060

2070 - 9y + 4y = 1060

Collect like terms

- 9y + 4y = 1060 -2070

-5y = -1010

y = -1010/-5

y = 202

Solving for x

x = 230 - y

x = 230 - 202

x = 28

Therefore,

Number of birds = x = 28

Number of fish = y = 202

Answers

Answer:

497 inches²

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi!

I have never done a problem like this in my life but I see exactly how it is meant to be solved. Lets try it out.

Let us first remind ourselves of the formulas we need for this.

Formula for a circle and the formula for a triangle.

Circle :

A = [tex]\pi[/tex] x r²

(or Area = pi x radius²) (Note that [tex]\pi[/tex] = 3.14)

Triangle :

A = b x h x 1/2

(or Area = base x height x 1/2)

Now lets see what the question wants from us and what we are given :

Gives us :

Diameter XY = 30 inches

YZ = 20 inches

XZ = 21 inches

And it wants the total area of the shaded regions to the nearest square inch. (Inches²)

Alright so first lets solve this triangle :

We need to do Base x Height x 1/2 :

Input your numbers given :

Base = 21in

Height = 20in

And lets multiply this out :

Base x Height x 1/2

21     x    20     x 1/2

21 x 20 gives us 420

Now we have :

420 x 1/2

Note that this is literally saying it wants half of 420. So we can actually just make it easier and do :

420/20

This gives us 210.

Great! Now we have the area of the triangle which is 210, this will be important later but for now lets move onto the circle.

Alright so we need radius to solve this but it really doesn't give us much about the circle.

But...

If you take a look at ∠YX you can see that it says 30in. This is actually the diameter of the circle and we can use this to find the radius of the circle.

The radius of a circle is 1/2 of the diameter.

And the diameter of a circle is 2 × the radius.

So in this case to find the radius we can actually take the 30inch diameter and divide it by 2 to find our radius.

30/2

=

15

Radius = 15inches!

Now lets look back to our wonderful circle formula.

A = [tex]\pi[/tex] x r²

or if we write it out :

Area = pi x radius²

So now lets plug in the radius we found and then solve to find the area of this circle.

Area = pi x 15²

(Don't forget the tiny 2 next to the 15!)

Now we can multiply this :

pi x 15²

=

706.858347058

Round to the nearest square inch :

707 inches²

(pi = [tex]\pi[/tex])

So now what we have is the area of both shapes. It is smooth sailing from this point on. Let us recap :

Triangle Area = 210 inches²

Circle Area = 707 inches²

Now we have to find the area of the shaded area which is really simple subtraction.

The shaded area is the circle but the triangle is overlapping this shaded area so all we have to do is subtract the triangles area from the circles area so all that will be left is the shaded area of the circle.

So we do :

Circles area - Triangles area = Our answer

707 - 210 = 497

There we go!

Our answer is 497 inches²

This took a minute I am sorry about that but I hope this helps!

One number is 6 less than 5 times the other number. Their sum is 60. Find the numbers.

Answers

Answer:

The numbers are 11 and 49.

Step-by-step explanation:

x = 5y - 6 This is just the first sentence written as an equation.

x + y = 60 This is just the second sentence written as an equation.

5y - 6 + y = 60 Substitute x for what you know it is equal to

6y - 6 = 60 Collect like terms

6y = 66 Add 6 to each side

y = 11 Divide each side by 6

x = 5 × 11 - 6 Substitute y for what you know it is

x = 55 - 6 Simplify by working out 5 × 11 = 55

x = 49 Subtract 6 from 55 to get 49

Substitute t = 3 and t = 6 to determine if the two expressions are equivalent.

3 (2 t + 5) 6 t + 15

Which statements are true? Select the three correct answers.
The value of both expressions when t = 3 is 33.
The value of both expressions when t = 3 is 23.
The value of both expressions when t = 6 is 41.
The value of both expressions when t = 6 is 51.
The two expressions are equivalent.
The two expressions are not equivalent.

Answers

Answer:

If t= 6

3 (2 x 6 + 5) 6 x 6 + 15

3 (12+5) 36 + 15

3 x 17 =51

= 51

The value of both expressions when t=6 is 51

When t = 3

3(2 x 3 + 5) 6 x 3 + 15

3 (6 +5) 18 + 15

3 x 11 =33

= 33

The value of both expressions when t= 3 is 33

How many more people like to swim than hike?
Show how you added or subtracted to find the answer

Answers

2 more people like to swim than hike because 4 (the people who swim) minus 2 (the people who hike) is 2 people

The number of people who likes to swim than hike is given by the equation A = 2 people

What is an Equation?

Equations are statements in mathematics that have two algebraic expressions on either side of the equals (=) sign.

It demonstrates that the expressions on the left and right sides are connected in the same way.

An equation has components like as coefficients, variables, operators, constants, terms, expressions, and the equal to sign. The "=" sign and terms on both sides are required when generating an equation.

Given data ,

Let the equation be represented as A

Now , the value of A is

Let the number of people who likes to swim be s= 4 people

Let the number of people who likes to hike be h = 2 people

Let the number of people who likes to bike be b = 3 people

Now , the equation will be

The number of people who likes to swim than hike A = number of people who likes to swim - number of people who likes to hike

The number of people who likes to swim than hike A = s - h

The number of people who likes to swim than hike A = 4 - 2

The number of people who likes to swim than hike A = 2 people

Hence , the number of people who likes to swim than hike is A = 2 people

how many after two years

Answer:

39 deers

51 deers

Step-by-step explanation:

The question can be expressed using the compounding rate formula:

A = P(1+r)^t

A = final population ; P = initial population ; rate, r = 30% = 0.3 ; t = time

After 1 year, t = 1

A = 30(1 + 0.3)^1

A = 30(1.3)^1

A = 39 deers
