Radio blackouts are among the most common space weather events to affect Earth. Minor radio blackouts occur, on average, twice per year. Use a Poisson process to model the phenomenon. (a) Given that 3 events have occurred in the first half of the year, what is that probability that 3 events will happen in the rest of the year? (b) How many radio blackouts do you expect to see in two years? (c) Starting from now, how long must we wait so that the probability of seeing the next radio blackout is at least 0.5? (d) Find the probability that the time to the 4th blackout is at most 2 years.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a.  P(x = 3) = 0.061313

b. The expected number of radio blackouts = 4

c.  It is not possible to determine the next radio blackout

d. P(x = 4) = 0.19537

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information:

Using a Poisson process to model the phenomenon:

Since minor radio blackouts occur, on average, twice per year.

Then:

[tex]\lambda = 2 \ years[/tex]

From question (a)

time t = 1/2 (i.e half of the year)

Let x be the random variable that denotes the probability that 3 events will happen in the rest of the year.

Then:

[tex]P(x = 3) = \dfrac{e^{-\lambda t} \times (\lambda t)^x}{x!}[/tex]

[tex]P(x = 3) = \dfrac{e^{-2* 0.5} \times (2 * 0.5)^3}{3!}[/tex]

P(x = 3) = 0.061313

b).

The number of radio blackouts  we expect to see in two years can be estimated as follows:

we know that:

t = 2 years

E(x) = λ × t

E(x) = 2 × 2

E(x) = 4

The expected number of radio blackouts = 4

c).

The amount of time we need to wait given that the probability of seeing the next radio blackout is at least 0.5 is as follows:

Here, the time (t) = ???

Thus:

P(x =1) = 0.5

[tex]P(x = 1) = \dfrac{e^{-\lambda t} \times (\lambda t)^x}{x!} = 0.5[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{e^{-\lambda t} \times (\lambda t)^x}{x!} = 0.5[/tex]

Thus, it is not possible to determine the probability (50%) of seeing the next radio blackout.

d)

The probability that the time to the 4th blackout is at most 2 years can be computed as follows:

Here;

x =4 , t = 2

Thus:

[tex]P(x = 4) = \dfrac{e^{-4 } \times (4)^4}{4!}[/tex]

P(x = 4) = 0.19537

Answers

Answer:

From the information given, you can write the following system of equations:

x+y+z=16 (1)

5x+4.5y+5.5z=82 (2)

z=x+y (3)

You can replace (3) in (1) and (2):

x+y+x+y=16

2x+2y=16 (4)

5x+4.5y+5.5(x+y)=82

5x+4.5y+5.5x+5.5y=82

10.5x+10y=82 (5)

Now, you have the following equations:

2x+2y=16 (4)

10.5x+10y=82 (5)

You can isolate x in (4):

2x=16-2y

x=8-y (6)

Then, you have to replace (6) in (5):

10.5(8-y)+10y=82

84-10.5y+10y=82

84-82=10.5y-10y

2=0.5y

y=2/0.5

y=4

Now, you can replace the value of y in (6) to find x:

x=8-4

x=4

Finally, you can replace the vaue of x and y in (3) to find z:

z=4+4

z=8

According to this, she should buy 4 apple pies, 4 banana pies and 8 chocolate pies.

[tex]m\angle 2=33^\circ[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Right Triangle

The figure shows a right triangle with angles 2 and 3 unknown.

The sum of the internal angles of all triangles is 180°, since one of them is 90°, then the sum of the rest of the angles is 90°. It means that:

[tex]m\angle 2+m\angle 3=90^\circ[/tex]

The measures of both angles are expressed as functions of x. Substituting their values:

x+8 + 2x + 7 = 90

Simplifying:

3x + 15 = 90

Operating:

3x = 90 - 15 = 75

Solving:

x = 75 / 3 = 25

x = 25°

Now, the measure of angle 2=x+8 = 33°

Step-by-step explanation:

The right relationship between M and t is given as:

M = −0.001t³ + 0.1t²

Required

Solve for M when t = 10

To do this, substitute 10 for t

So,we have:

M = −0.001t³ + 0.1t²

M = -0.001 * 10³ + 0.1 * 10²

M = -0.001 * 1000 + 0.1 *100

M = 1 + 10

M = 11

How to write a linear equation?

A linear equation for the given case can be written by assuming any variable as the unknown quantity. Then, as per the given data the required operations are done and it is equated to some value.

The pair of vertical angles are given as below,

∠A = (7x - 8)°  and ∠B = (6x + 17)°.

Since, pair of vertically opposite angles are equal.

It implies that ∠A = ∠B.

⇒ 7x - 8 = 6x + 17

⇒ 7x - 6x = 17 + 8

⇒ x = 25

Hence, the value of x can be obtained as 25.

Sharee and her two sisters ate 3 /5 of a pizza. How much of the pizza did each girl have? A) 1 /3 B) 1/ 5 C) 2 /15 D) 3 /10

Answer:

B) 1/ 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of persons = Sharee and her two sisters = 3 persons

Quantity of pizza eaten = 3/5

Each person ate:

3 persons = 3/5 pizza

1 person = x pizza

Cross Multiply

3 × x = 3/5 × 1

x = 3/5 × 1/3

x = 3/5 ÷ 3

x = 3/5 × 1/3

x = 1/5

Hence, each person ate 1/5 pizza.

Is the following number rational or irrational?
2.238359881…….

Answers

Answer

for the short answer...it's irrational

Answer:

It is irrational.

Step-by-step explanation: And it is not the solution to any polynomial equation with integer coefficients, so it is also transcendental.

However, it IS possible to raise an irrational number to an irrational power and get a rational number.

For example, let x=2–√. It is well known that this is irrational.

Let y=2log25.  This is irrational, since log25 is irrational.

But xy=2–√(2log25)

=2(log25)=5.

This last equation is true because logs are inverses of powers. For example, 2(log2n)=n.

I would have thought any irrational raised to an irrational was always irrational, until I saw an example like this.

It is still a surprising result to me.

Suppose the time it takes a certain printer to print a document is an Exponential random variable with an average time of 15 seconds. You send a document to the printer at 1:00pm, and it is the third document in the queue. What is the probability that your printout will be ready by 1:01pm

Answers

Answer:

0.8046

Step-by-step explanation:

We're asked to calculate the probability that the job will be ready by 1.01 pm

From the question, we can note that the parameter of an Exponential is E(X)= 15

Next, to calculate the third job probability, we will have to use Poisson Distribution with parameter 1/λ

Therefore, E(Y) = 1/15

Then, The third job will be ready for 1:01 pm, and thus E(Y) = 61/15

Therefore, the required probability is

P(X ≥ 3) = 1 - P(X < 3)

= 1 - Poisson(3,4, true)

= 1 - 0.1954

= 0.8046

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Josie combines 8.27 liters of red paint with 6.65 liters of blue paint to make purple paint. This means that the total number of liters of paint in the mixture(purple paint) is

8.27 + 6.65 = 14.92 liters

She pours the paint equally into 2 containers, and has 1.56 liters of paint left over. This means that the amount of paint that she poured inside the 2 containers is

14.92 - 1.56 = 13.36 liters.

Therefore, the number of liters of paint in each container is

13.36/2 = 6.68 liters

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

There are 6.68 liters of paint in each container.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, add both of the paint values to get 14.92. Subtract the remaining paint value to get the paint that was organized into the containers (13.36). Divide the value of paint by 2 to get 6.68.
