Answer: 4.85%

Step-by-step explanation: productivity = parcel delivered / number of drivers.

At when parcel delivered was 103, 000 the average number of drivers was 84 thus making the productivity to be

103,000/ 84 = 1226.19

At when the parcel delivered was 112, 800 the average number of drivers was 96 thus making the productivity to be

112, 000/ 96 = 1166.67

Thus the change in productivity = 1226.19 - 1166.67 = 59.52.

Initial productivity = 1226.19

final productivity = 1166.67

% change in productivity = change in productivity / initial productivity * 100

% change in productivity = 59.52 /1226 * 100

% change in productivity = 4.85%

Add whole numbers: 2 + 6 + 8 = 16
Add fractions:

= 1/3 + 3/4 + 1/2

= (8 + 18 + 12) ÷ 24

= 38/24 or 1 14/24 or simplified to 1 7/12

Total surface area = 16 + 1 7/12 or 17 7/12

Suppose flaws (cracks, chips, specks, etc.) occur on the surface of glass with density of 3 per square meter. What is the probab
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

0.047

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that poisson distribution with mean m, for 0.5 square meter =1.5

Then the formula for finding the probability =

P[k] = (e^-m * m^k) k!

Hence we have

P[4] =[ (e^-1.5) * (1.5^4)] ÷ 4 * 3 * 2 * 1

= (0.2231301601 * 5.0625) ÷ 24

=( 1.12944375) ÷24

= 0.04706

≈ 0.047

Hence, the final answer is 0.047

Twelve people each have a standard deck of cards. Each person shuffles the deck and draws two cards (without replacement). Anyon
Arada [10]

Answer:

The number of people, of the twelve, who will win a prize is 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a standard deck of cards there are 52 cards.

The 52 cards are divided into 4 suits: Hearts, Diamonds, Spades and Clubs, each of 13 cards.

Each of the 12 people draws 2 cards from their standard deck of cards.

Compute the probability of selecting at least 1 diamond as follows:

P (At least 1 diamond) = 1 - P (No diamond)

                                    =1-\frac{{39\choose 2}}{{52\choose 2}} \\=1-\frac{741}{1326}\\ =1-0.5588\\=0.4412

The probability of selecting at least 1 diamond is 0.4412.

If a person draws at least 1 diamond he wins a prize.

The expected number of people who will win the prize is:

E (Wins a prize) = n × P (At least 1 diamond)

                          =12\times0.4412\\=5.2944\\\approx5

Thus, the number of people of the twelve who will win a prize is 5.

nikdorinn [45]

The student's statement about area is incorrect because by joining suitable lines, we can divide the region into 3 rectangles and we can find its area.

Please check the attached figure.

From the figure, we can easily observe that the area of the shaded region = Area of the rectangle A + Area of the rectangle B - Area of the rectangle C.
