A large insurance company maintains a central computing system that contains a variety of information about customer accounts. I

nsurance agents in a six-state area use telephone lines to access the customer information database. Currently, the company's central computer system allows three users to access the central computer simultaneously. Agents who attempt to use the system when it is full are denied access; no waiting is allowed. Management realizes that with its expanding business, more requests will be made to the central information system. Being denied access to the system is inefficient as well as annoying for agents. Access requests follow a Poisson probability distribution, with a mean of 40 calls per hour. The service rate per line is 18 calls per hour.
(a) What is the probability that 0, 1, 2, and 3 access lines will be in use? Round your answers to 4 decimal places.
(b) What is the probability that an agent will be denied access to the system? Round your answers to 4 decimal places.
(c) What is the average number of access lines in use? Round your answers to 4 decimal places.

Isabella filled her pool with water at a constant rate.
AlladinOne [14]

(184-94)/5=18

This means that she fills up 18 liters every minute. Thus she will be done in->

184(original amount)+(2 minutes (time passed during first data point)*18(rate of water)=184+36=220

To find the total time taken we divide 220 by 18 which is 220/18=12 2/9

A wild animal generally stays at least x mi from the edge of a forest. For a rectangular forest preserve that is 2 mi
Butoxors [25]

Answer:

Area = 4x^2 - 14x + 10

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>See Attachment for Complete Question</em>

Given

Width = 5mi --- For the forest

Length = 2mi -- --- For the forest

Required

Determine the area of the habitat

Since the distance between the animal's habitat is x mi on both sides;

The length and width of the habitat is:

Width = 5 - (x + x)

Width = 5 - 2x

Height = 2 - (x +x)

Height = 2 - 2x

The area is then calculated as follows;

Area = Width * Height

Area = (5 - 2x) * (2 - 2x)

Expand

Area = 5(2 - 2x) -2x(2 - 2x)

Open Brackets

Area = 10 - 10x - 4x + 4x^2

Area = 10 - 14x + 4x^2

Reorder

Area = 4x^2 - 14x + 10

Hence; the required polynomial for the habitat area is:

Area = 4x^2 - 14x + 10

Curtis paid $80 on the vet bill for his dog. Then the vet charged him $40 more for his dog's medicine. If he now owes the vet $1
Klio2033 [76]

He paid 80 at the start, so his starting must have been 80

Step-by-step explanation:

80+40=120...

so either 0, or 80 because he owed nothing, or he owed the 80, then the 40 for medication

I hope this helps!

X1/3y1/6 rewrite expression in radical form
arsen [322]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Please, use the symbol " ^ " to denote exponentiation:

x^(1/3) * y^(1/6)

In radical form, this would be:

∛x*(6th root of y)    (the index of the second root is 6).

Alternatively, you could write:

∛x * √((∛y)).
