8% of their total bill = 3.70
0.08x = 3.70
x = 3.70/0.08
x = 46.25 <==

Answer:

Their bill was $46.25.

Step-by-step explanation:

Restaurant customer tip their server 8% that is $3.70.

Let the bill of the customer be 'x'

Therefore, 8% of x = $3.70

$\frac{8}{100}$ × x = 3.70

x = 3.70 ÷ 0.08

x = $46.25

Their bill was $46.25.

Oksana_A [137]

Y=mx+b
m=slope
b=yint

two points
cost=y
(4,5.5) and (7,7.75)
slope=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
slope=(7.75-5.5)/(7-4)=2.25/3=0.75

y=0.75x+b
find b
(4,5.5)
x=4
y=5.5
5.5=0.75(4)+b
5.5=3+b
minus 3 fromboth sides
2.5=b

y=0.75x+2.5
3 hours
y=0.75(3)+2.5
y=2.25+2.5
y=4.75

answer is D

The article "Expectation Analysis of the Probability of Failure for Water Supply Pipes"† proposed using the Poisson distribution

oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

a. P(X ≤ 5) = 0.999

b. P(X > λ+λ) = P(X > 2) = 0.080

Step-by-step explanation:

We model this randome variable with a Poisson distribution, with parameter λ=1.

We have to calculate, using this distribution, P(X ≤ 5).

The probability of k pipeline failures can be calculated with the following equation:

$P(k)=\lambda^{k} \cdot e^{-\lambda}/k!=1^{k} \cdot e^{-1}/k!=e^{-1}/k!$

Then, we can calculate P(X ≤ 5) as:

$P(X\leq5)=P(0)+P(1)+P(2)+P(4)+P(5)\\\\\\P(0)=1^{0} \cdot e^{-1}/0!=1*0.3679/1=0.368\\\\P(1)=1^{1} \cdot e^{-1}/1!=1*0.3679/1=0.368\\\\P(2)=1^{2} \cdot e^{-1}/2!=1*0.3679/2=0.184\\\\P(3)=1^{3} \cdot e^{-1}/3!=1*0.3679/6=0.061\\\\P(4)=1^{4} \cdot e^{-1}/4!=1*0.3679/24=0.015\\\\P(5)=1^{5} \cdot e^{-1}/5!=1*0.3679/120=0.003\\\\\\P(X\leq5)=0.368+0.368+0.184+0.061+0.015+0.003=0.999$

The standard deviation of the Poisson deistribution is equal to its parameter λ=1, so the probability that X exceeds its mean value by more than one standard deviation (X>1+1=2) can be calculated as:

$P(X>2)=1-(P(0)+P(1)+P(2))\\\\\\P(0)=1^{0} \cdot e^{-1}/0!=1*0.3679/1=0.368\\\\P(1)=1^{1} \cdot e^{-1}/1!=1*0.3679/1=0.368\\\\P(2)=1^{2} \cdot e^{-1}/2!=1*0.3679/2=0.184\\\\\\P(X>2)=1-(0.368+0.368+0.184)=1-0.920=0.080$
