Answer:   x = 7

Thus 7 associates and 10 partners were assigned

Step-by-step explanation:

7 associates and 10 partners were assigned

Let "x" be the number of associates assigned to

case

Let "y" be the number of partners assigned to the case

The law firm assigned a total of 17 lawyers to the case

Therefore,

x + y = 17

x = 17 - y --------- eqn 1

daily rate charged to the client for each associate is $800

daily rate for each partner is $1800

They was able to charge the client $23600 per day for these lawyers' services

Therefore,

800x + 1800y = 23600 ------- eqn 2

Let us solve eqn 1 and eqn 2

Substitute eqn 1 in eqn 2

800(17 - y) + 1800y = 23600

13600 - 800y + 1800y = 23600

1000y = 23600 - 13600

1000y = 10000

Divide both sides by 1000

y = 10

Substitute y = 10 in eqn 1

x = 17 - 10

x = 7

Thus 7 associates and 10 partners were assigned

The exponential distribution can be used to solve Poisson-type problems in which the intervals are not time. The Air Travel Cons
frutty [35]

Answer:

a) P(X \ge 490) = 0.628

b) P(X \leq 190) = 0.165

Step-by-step explanation:

a) This is an exponential distribution question since it is a poisson type problem

Mean rate is 0.95 per 1000 passengers

Mean rate, \lambda = 0.95/1000

\lambda = 0.00095 per passenger

Probability that at least 490 passengers will have their baggage handled properly before the next mishandling occurs :

P(X \ge x) = e^{- \lambda x}

P(X \ge 490) = e^{-490 * 0.00095}

P(X \ge 490) = e^{-0.4655}\\P(X \ge 490) = 0.628

b)  Probability that the number will be fewer than 200 passengers

P(X \leq 190) = 1 - P(X \geq 190)\\P(X \leq 190) = 1 - e^{-190 \lambda} \\P(X \leq 190) = 1 - e^{-190 *0.00095}

P(X \leq 190) = 1 - 0.835\\P(X \leq 190) = 0.165

A rectangular piece of land is 40m long and 25m wide. A path of uniform width and 426 m^2 area sorrounds
fredd [130]

Answer:

Width of the uniform path that surrounds the piece of land = 3 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width of the path that surrounds the piece of land be x.

The situation described is sketched in the attached image to this solution.

The dimension of the Length of the piece of land including the uniform path that surrounds it = (40 + 2x) m

The Breadth of the piece of land including the uniform path that surrounds it = (25 + 2x) m

The area of the piece of land including the uniform path that surrounds it

= (Area of the piece of land) + (Area of the uniform path that surrounds it)

Area of the piece of land = Length × Breadth = 40 × 25 = 1000 m²

Area of the uniform path that surrounds it = 426 m² (Given in the question)

The area of the piece of land including the uniform path that surrounds it = 1000 + 426 = 1426 m²

But the area of the piece of land including the uniform path that surrounds it is also

= (Length of the piece of land including the uniform path that surrounds it) × (Breadth of the piece of land including the uniform path that surrounds it

= (40 + 2x) + (25 + 2x)

= 1000 + 80x + 50x + 4x²

= (4x² + 130x + 1000) m²

Equation these 2 areas

4x² + 130x + 1000 = 1426

4x² + 130x - 426 = 0

Solving the quadratic equation

x = 3 or -35.5

Since the width cannot be negative,

x = 3 m

Hope this Helps!!!

Jackie took out a $9,000 personal loan with a 4.5% interest rate that she will pay back in 3 years. She will make monthly paymen
gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

Total cost of repayment is $10,852.92

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, we need to calculate the interest attached to this loan repayment

To calculate this, we use the formula for simple interest

Mathematically,

I = \frac{PRT}{100}

where P is the amount borrowed which is $9,000

R is the rate which is 4.5%

T is the time which is 3 years

Plugging these values, we have

I = (9000×4.5×3)/100 = $1,215

Now we were also told in the question that she will make a monthly repayment of $267.72

Now the number of months in 3 years is 36 months. Total monthly repayment = 267.72 × 36 = $9637.92

Adding the interest amount, we have 9637.92 + 1215 = $10,852.92
