The answer is 1/4 because 7/12 is larger than 1/2 but 1/4 is 2x smaller

The answer is 1/4 because 4•3=12 and 1•3=3 3/12 is less than 7/12

Mario, Yoshi, and Toadette play a game of "nonconformity": They each choose rock, paper, or scissors. If two of the three people

andrey2020 [161]

Step-by-step explanation: Hi!

well, the only case where someone wins is if two of them chose the same thing, and the other chose one of the two remaining possibilities.

an useful way of starting this is calculated al the possible combinations of rock, paper and scissors.

we have 3 persons and 3 options, ence the total number of permutations is 3*3*3 = 27

So, the cases where none wins are:

1) the 3 chose the same thing: there are 3 combinations here, one for each option

2) the 3 chose a different thing: here you think, the first one has 3 possibilities, then the second one must choose a different option, so has 2, and the third one only has 1 remaining option. so you have 6 combinations.

so there are 6 + 3 = 9 combinations where no one wins, if we want to se the probability, we compute 9/27 = 1/3 = 0.33%.

But the problem ask for it to happen 4 times in a row, so you will have 0.33*0.33*0.33*0.33 = 1/81 chances that this happens

What is the surface area of the right cone below?

maksim [4K]

Answer:

$SA=54\pi\ units^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The surface area of the cone is given by the formula

$SA=\pi r^{2}+\pi rl$

where

r is the radius of the base

l is the slant height

we have

$r=3\ units\\l=15\ units$

substitute

$SA=\pi (3)^{2}+\pi (3)(15)$

$SA=54\pi\ units^2$

The caller times at a customer service center has an exponential distribution with an average of 22 seconds. Find the probabilit

jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

The probability that a randomly selected call time will be less than 30 seconds is 0.7443.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the caller times at a customer service center has an exponential distribution with an average of 22 seconds.

Let X = caller times at a customer service center

The probability distribution (pdf) of the exponential distribution is given by;

$f(x) = \lambda e^{-\lambda x} ; x > 0$

Here, $\lambda$ = exponential parameter

Now, the mean of the exponential distribution is given by;

Mean = $\frac{1}{\lambda}$

So, $22=\frac{1}{\lambda}$ ⇒ $\lambda=\frac{1}{22}$

SO, X ~ Exp( $\lambda=\frac{1}{22}$ )

To find the given probability we will use cumulative distribution function (cdf) of the exponential distribution, i.e;

$P(X\leq x) = 1 - e^{-\lambda x}$ ; x > 0

Now, the probability that a randomly selected call time will be less than 30 seconds is given by = P(X < 30 seconds)

P(X < 30) = $1 - e^{-\frac{1}{22} \times 30}$

= 1 - 0.2557

= 0.7443
