A team of researchers published an article on the study of how vehicles are dispatched based on an airport-based taxi service. T

he researchers modeled this system with an underlying assumption that travel times of successive trips to and from the terminal are independent exponentially distributed random variables with β = 15 minutes. (a) Find the mean and standard deviation of trip time distribution (b) How likely is it for a particular trip to take more than 25 minutes? (c) If two taxis are dispatched together, what is the probability that both of them will be gone for more than 25 minutes? (d) what is the likelihood of at least of one of the taxis returning within 25?

Answer:

a. The mean would be 0.067

The standard deviation would be 0.285

b. Would be of 1-e∧-375

c. The probability that both of them will be gone for more than 25 minutes is 1-e∧-187.5

d. The likelihood of at least of one of the taxis returning within 25 is 1-e∧-375

Step-by-step explanation:

a. According to the given data the mean and the standard deviation would be as follows:

mean=1/β=1/15=0.0666=0.067

standard deviation=√1/15=√0.067=0.285

b. To calculate How likely is it for a particular trip to take more than 25 minutes we would calculate the following:

p(x>25)=1-p(x≤25)

since f(x)=p(x≤x)=1-e∧-βx

p(x>25)=1-p(x≤25)=1-e∧-15x25=1-e∧-375

c. p(x>25/2)=1-p(x≤25/2)=1-e∧-15x25/2=1-e∧-187.5

d. p(x≥25)=1-e∧-15x25=1-e∧-375

Viktor [21]
<span>In a baseball season:
Peter hit = 2 (x - 6)
Total = 19 hits

X= Alex’s hit
Y = Peter’s Hit

=> Y = 2(x - 6)
=> x + y = 18
Let’s start from the second given equation:
=> x + y =18
=> y = 18 – x
Now, let’s use the first given equation to solve:
=> 18 – x = 2 (x - 6)
=> 18 – x = 2x – 12
=> -3x = -30
x = 10

Now, Let’s try:
=> Y = 2(x - 6)
=> y = 2 (10 - 6)
=> y = 2 (4)
=> y = 8

Thus, Peter hit 8 and Alice hit 10.</span>

Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

For a = 1.22 there is one solution where y = 1.3

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

Let´s write the system of equations:

a(0.3 - y) + 1.1 +2.4x(y-1.2) = 0

-1.2(x-0.5) = 0

Let´s solve the second equation for x:

-1.2(x-0.5) = 0

x- 0.5 = 0

x = 0.5

Now let´s repalce x = 0.5 and y = 1.3 in the first equation and solve it for a:

a(0.3 - y) + 1.1 +2.4x(y-1.2) = 0

a(0.3 - 1.3) + 1.1 + 2.4(0.5)(1.3 -1.2) = 0

a(-1) + 1.1 + 1.2(0.1) = 0

-a + 1.22 = 0

-a = -1.22

a = 1.22

Let´s check the solution and solve the system of equations with a = 1.22. Let´s solve the first equation for y:

1.22(0.3 - y) + 1.1 +2.4(0.5)(y-1.2) = 0

0.366 - 1.22y + 1.1 + 1.2 y - 1.44 = 0

-0.02y +0.026 = 0

-0.02y = -0.026

y = -0.026 / -0.02

y = 1.3

Then, the answer is correct.

Have a nice day!

27 students are learning to make balloon animals. There are 172 balloons to be shared equally among the students
bija089 [108]
A.) .4 of a balloon is left
To Check:
what I did was divide 172 by 27 and it is 6.37 rounded to ........6 is an equal number so I kept it and .4 will be left over after sharing equally.

B.) 17 more balloons are needs
To Check:
what I was multiply 27 by 7 because each student needs seven balloons and I got 189 after that I subtracted 172 from 189 (189-172=17)
to see how many more balloons are needed.
