Answer:

18 times.

Step-by-step explanation:

The ferris wheel will have to take 48 people repeatedly until all have gone with the last group of people being 48 or less.

Given that there are 823 people with tickets to ride the ferris wheel

Number of time to run the wheel = 823/48

= 17 5/48

It means that the ferris wheel will take 48 people 17 times and 5 people once. Hence it will be run 18 times to give everyone a ride.

17.14 times would be exact but round up to 18

muminat

Answer:

The claim is not fair because:

  • Probability of roliing two 6s = Probability of rolling two 3s = 1/36

Step-by-step explanation:

The <em>probaility</em> of an event is defined as the number of favorable outcomes divided by the number of total possible events.

P (event E) = number of outcomes for event E / number of possible events

1. <u>As </u><u>first step</u><u>, you may draw a table to find the </u><u>sample space</u><u> (set of all possible outcomes)</u>.

<u>Sample space</u>

The results of the rolling two dice are summarized in this table:

                    Second roll    1       2       3       4        5      6

First roll

  1                                       (1,1)  (1,2)    (1,3)   (1,4)   (1,5)  (1,6)

  2                                     (2,1)  (2,2)  (2,3)  (2,4)  (2,5)  (2,6)

  3                                     (3,1)  (3,2)  <u>(3,3)</u>   (3,4)  (3,5)  (3,6)

  4                                     (4,1)   (4,2)  (4,3)  (4,4)  (4,5)  (4,6)

  5                                     (5,1)  (5,2)  (5,3)  (5,4)  (5,5)  (5,6)

  6                                     (6,1)  (6,2)  (6,3)  (6,4)  (6,5)  <u>(6,6)</u>

<u></u>

2.<u>Now, in that table, you can observe</u>:

The results (3,3) and (6,6) are highlited.

a) Total number of events: 6 × 6 = 36

b) Nnmber of outcomes for the event rolling two 6s (6,6): 1

c) Number of outcomes for the event rolling two 3s (3,3): 1

3) <u>Next, you can calculate the probabilities:</u>

a) Probability rolling two 6s = 1 / 36

b) Probability of rolling two 3s: 1 / 36

4. <u>Conclusion</u>: the probabilities prove that rolling two 6s is just as likely as rolling two 3s.

An attempt to establish a video call via some social media app may fail with probability 0.1. If connection is established and i
xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

(1). y = x ~ Exp (1/3).

(2). Check attachment.

(3). EY = 3(1 - e^-2).

(4). Var[y] = 3(1 - e^-2) (1 -3 (1 - e^-2)) - 36e^-2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Kindly check the attachment to aid in understanding the solution to the question.

So, from the question, we given the following parameters or information or data;

(A). The probability in which attempt to establish a video call via some social media app may fail with = 0.1.

(B). " If connection is established and if no connection failure occurs thereafter, then the duration of a typical video call in minutes is an exponential random variable X with E[X] = 3. "

(C). "due to an unfortunate bug in the app all calls are disconnected after 6 minutes. Let random variable Y denote the overall call duration (i.e., Y = 0 in case of failure to connect, Y = 6 when a call gets disconnected due to the bug, and Y = X otherwise.)."

(1). Hence, for FY(y) = y = x ~ Exp (1/3) for the condition that zero is equal to y = x < 6.

(2). Check attachment.

(3). EY = 3(1 - e^-2).

(4). Var[y] = 3(1 - e^-2) (1 -3 (1 - e^-2)) - 36e^-2.

The condition to follow in order to solve this question is that y = 0 if x ≤ 0, y = x if 0 ≤ x ≤ 6 and y = 6 if x ≥ 6.

myrzilka [38]

Answer:

$15.25

Step-by-step explanation:

$7.50+$4.85+$12.25 +$9.00 +$8.15 = $41.75

$28.50*2 = $57.00

So, he needs $57.00- $41.75 = $15.25 more

Is x − 8 a factor of the function f(x) = −2x3 + 17x2 − 64? Explain.
Nataly_w [17]
Yes when the function f(x) = -2x3+17x2-64 is divided by x-8, the remainder is zero. Therefore, x-8 is a factor of f(x) = -2x3+17x2-64
