A=Adam
m= Melissa

a+m = 32
m= 3a
Then 3a + a = 32  or 4a =32  then a = 8

The time it takes a printer to print a job is an Exponential random variable with the expectation of 12 seconds. You send a job
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

0.8753

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the probability that your job will be ready before 10.01 am

Here, the parameter of an Exponential is E(X)=12

Now, to calculate the third job probability, it follows Poisson Distribution with parameter 1/λ

Therefore, E(Y) =1/12

Here, The third job will be ready for 10:01 AM, then E(Y)=61/12

Therefore, the required probability is

P(X\geq 3)=1-P(X

=1- POISSON(3,5,true)

=1-0.1246

=0.8753

Charles wants to find out if the students in foreign language classes spend more time in class speaking in English or in the for
Nuetrik [128]

C. The way the sample was chosen may overrepresent or underrepresent students taking certain language classes.

The samples he chose may not be a representative sample because the number of students per foreign language class may not be the same. Since classes have different numbers of students, one may have a very large number of students while another may have only a few. Taking equal number of students per class is not a representative sample because it doesn't represent the students correctly.

Use a daily production cost C for x units. A manufacturer of gas grills has daily production costs of C = 400 – 5x + 0.125x2, wh

The function given is a quadratic function, so the graph will be a parabola. It'll look similar to the photo attached. The minimum cost will be at the vertex of the parabola because that is its lowest point! To find the x-value of the vertex (which is what the question is looking for), use the vertex formula: x = -b/2a. The variable b is the coefficient of the x term in the function, and the variable a is the coefficient of the x² term. In this case, a = 0.125 and b = -5.
x = -(-5)/2(0.125)
x = 5/0.25
x = 20
So, 20 gas grills should be produced each day to maintain minimum costs. Hope that helps! :)

A man has 28 coins in his pocket, all of which are dimes and quarters. if the total value of his change is 520 cents, how many d
nordsb [41]
Assuming x = dimes, y = quarters

x + y = 28 \\ 0.1x + 0.25y = 5.20

x + y = 28 \\ x = 28 - y

Substitute that into,
0.1(28 - y) + 0.25y = 5.20 \\ 2.8 - 0.1y + 0.25y = 5.20 \\0.15y = 2.4 \\ y = 16

Answer : He has 16 quarters.

Hope this helps. - M

According to a Wired magazine article, of e-mails that are received are tracked using software that can tell the e-mail sender w
VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

a. 12

b. 7.200 and 2.683

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation is shown below:

Given that

P = 0.40 and n = 30

a)

The expected value of received e-mails is

= n × p

= 30 × 0.4

= 12  

b)

The variance of emails received is

= n × p × (1 - p)

= 30 × 0.4 × 0.6

= 7.200

Now

The standard deviation of emails received is

= sqrt(variance)

= 2.683

We simply applied the above formula
