What is the probability that a customer will spend more than 15 minutes in the bank? What is the probability that a customer will spend more than 15 minutes in the bank given that he is still in the bank after 10 minutes? Solution: P (X > 15) = e−15λ = e−3/2 = 0.22 P (X > 15|X > 10) = P (X > 5) = e−1/2 =

PROBABILITY QUESTIONS Q1). You draw a card at random from a standard deck of 52 cards. Neither you nor anyone else looked at the card you picked. You keep it face down. Your friend then picks a card at random from a remaining 51 cards. a) What is the probability that your card is ace of spades? 1/52 b) What is the probability that your friend’s card is ace of spades? (Hint: Construct the sample space for what your friend’s card can be.) 1/51 c) You turn over your card and it is 10 of

Karan negi 12.2 12.3 We use equation 2 to find out probability: F(t)=1 – e^-Lt 1-e^-(0.4167)(10) = 0.98 almost certainty. This shows that probability of another arrival in the next 10 minutes. Now we figure out how many customers actually arrive within those 10 minutes. If the mean is 0.4167‚ then 0.4167*10=4.2‚ and we can round that to 4. X-axis represents minutes (0-10) Y-axis represents number of people. We can conclude from this chart that the highest point with the most visitors

Hadley Smith uses indirect and direct characterization to evince how Hadley is a clumsy and unlucky person. Hadley first reveals her clumsy sides by forgetting her stuff‚ making everything drop on the floor or being late for her plane. Not only she misses her plane‚ but she also has to sleep in a tiny airport chamber‚ being claustrophobic. Smith says “Or later: if she hadn’t given herself a paper cut while printing out her ticket‚ if she hadn’t lost her charger‚ if there hadn’t been traffic on the

Course paper in Philosophy of Science and Ethics Title: The relevance of Statistics and Probability for the study of the thermodynamics properties (The Maxwell-Boltzmann Theory) Abstract There are many philosophical debates as to the appropriateness of the use of statistics and probability as scientific research measures. Many renowned philosophers believe that since scientific investigation aims at the ultimate goal of presenting truth about the observations and processes in our universe

relationship of how the probability of infection affects the people in the village when it is increased or decreased. This will determine whether the people in the village die or not from the epidemic. As the probability of infection is increased‚ the more people in the village will die. This is because the villagers are more likely to contract the disease‚ putting them at a higher risk of dying to the epidemic. As an example more people will survive in the village if the probability of infection is 20%
