The time it takes a printer to print a job is an Exponential random variable with the expectation of 12 seconds. You send a job

to the printer at 10:00 am, and it appears to be third in line. What is the probability that your job will be ready before 10:01

Answer:

0.8753

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the probability that your job will be ready before 10.01 am

Here, the parameter of an Exponential is E(X)=12

Now, to calculate the third job probability, it follows Poisson Distribution with parameter 1/λ

Therefore, E(Y) =1/12

Here, The third job will be ready for 10:01 AM, then E(Y)=61/12

Therefore, the required probability is

P(X\geq 3)=1-P(X

=1- POISSON(3,5,true)

=1-0.1246

=0.8753

You are still debating about the two different computers. If you are paid $10.00/hour and your deductions are FICA (7.65%), fede
sattari [20]

Answer:

89 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

First solve all the deductions.

For each multiply the $10, which you are paid, and the percentage.

For FICA: $10 x 0.0765 = $0.77 per hr

For Fed tax: $10 x 0.12 = $1.2 per hr

For State tax: $10  x 0.08 = $0.8 per hr

Now subtract the remaining pay:

10 – 0.77 – 1.2 – 0.8 = $7.23

Time required = $640 / $7.23 per hr

Time required = 89 hrs

Final answer:

89 hours

Cassie made a picture graph to record the points that third grade students scored on test.Mrs Wilson's group scored 40 points in
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

4 students scored 3 points each

7 students scored 4 points each

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Undetermined equations </u>

There are problems where there are not enough data to provide a unique (determined) solution. We form as many equations as possible and try to find the combination of values of the variables to fulfill all the conditions

For this question, we are assuming the grades go from 1 to 5. We know 11 students in Mrs. Wilson's group scored 40 points in all. We must find a combination of points to produce a sum of 40. We're also assuming only integer points can be scored.

To make things easier, let's find the mean value of the total scores: 40/11=3.6

If we stick to the closest integer near 3.6 we can find a quick solution. Let's think all the students scored 4. It would give a total of 44 points (4 more than required). To adjust the excess, we simply set the score of 4 students to 3 points. Our solution will be

4 students scored 3 points each: 12 points

7 students scored 4 points each: 28 points

Total: 40 points

Note: You can find more solutions apart from this one. For example, set the score of one of the 4-points students to 3. To compensate, set another one from that group to 5 points. Our new solution will be

5 students scored 3 points each: 15 points

5 students scored 4 points each: 20 points

1 student  scored 5 points     :  5 points

It also has a total of 40 points from 11 students

Rate at which risk of down syndrome is changing is approximated by function r(x) = 0.004641x2 − 0.3012x + 4.9 (20 ≤ x ≤ 45) wher
romanna [79]
The rate of change of the risk of down syndrome (in percentage of births per year) is
r(x) = 0.004641x² - 0.3012x + 4.9,   20≤ x ≤ 45
where
x = maternal age at delivery.

The function giving risk as a percentage of births when maternal age is x is the integral of r(x). That is,
f(x) = 0.001547x³ - 0.1506x² +4.9x + c

When x = 30, f = 0.14%. Therefore
0.001547(30³) - 0.1506(30²) + 4.9(30) + c = 0.14 
41.769 - 135.54 + 147 + c = 0.14
c = -53.089

Answer:
f(x) = 0.001547x³ - 0.1506x² + 4.9x - 53.089,   20 ≤ x ≤ 45

The function is graphed as shown below.
