Suppose small aircraft arrive at a certain airport according to a Poisson process with rate α = 8 per hour, so that the number of arrivals during a time period of t hours is a Poisson rv with parameter μ = 8t.

Required:
a. What is the probability that exactly 6 small aircraft arrive during a 1-hour period? At least 6? At least 10?
b. What are the expected value and standard deviation of the number of small aircraft that arrive during a 90-min period?
c. What is the probability that at least 20 small aircraft arrive during a 2.5-hour period? That at most 10 arrive during this period?

Step-by-step explanation:

Step1:

We have Suppose small aircraft arrive at a certain airport according to a Poisson process with rate α =8 per hour, so that the number of arrivals during a time period of t hours is a Poisson rv with parameter μ = 8t

Step2:

Let “X” the number of small aircraft that arrive during time t and it follows poisson distribution parameter “”

The probability mass function of poisson distribution is given by

P(X) = , x = 0,1,2,3,...,n.

Where, μ(mean of the poisson distribution)

a).

Given that time period t = 1hr.

Then,μ = 8t

             = 8(1)

             = 8

Now,

The probability that exactly 6 small aircraft arrive during a 1-hour period is given by

P(exactly 6 small aircraft arrive during a 1-hour period) = P(X = 6)

Consider,

P(X = 6) =  

              =  

              =  

              = 0.1219.

Therefore,The probability that exactly 6 small aircraft arrive during a 1-hour period is 0.1219.

1).P(At least 6) = P(X 6)

Consider,

P(X 6) = 1 - P(X5)

                = 1 - {}

                = 1 - (){}

                = 1 - (0.000335){}

                = 1 - (0.000335){1+8+32+85.34+170.67+273.07}

                = 1 - (0.000335){570.08}

                = 1 - 0.1909

                = 0.8090.

Therefore, the probability that at least 6 small aircraft arrive during a 1-hour period is 0.8090.

2).P(At least 10) = P(X 10)

Consider,

P(X 10) = 1 - P(X9)

                 = 1 - {

$3720

step-by-step explanation:

taxable income = $31000

as per the 2018-2019 us tax bracket, the tax rate is 12% for an individual whose taxable income is between $9,526 to $38,700.

so, the tax to be paid by him = 12% of 31000

= 0.12 * 31000     [12% converted to decimal as 0.12]

= $3720

region b will make the inequalities y < 2x + 1 and y > -x - 2 true ⇒ answer a

step-by-step explanation:

* lets study the graph and the inequality to solve the question

- the inequality y > -x - 2

∵ the form of the inequality is y > mx + c , m is the slope of the line

  and c is the y-intercept (the line intersect y-axis at point (0 , c)

∴ c = -2 that means the line intersect the y-axis at point (0 , -2)

∵ the sign of the inequality is >

∴ we shad the part over the line

  region a and b

- the inequality y < 2x + 1

∵ the form of the inequality is y > mx + c , m is the slope of the line

  and c is the y-intercept (the line intersect y-axis at point (0 , c)

∴ c = 1 that means the line intersect the y-axis at point (0 , 1)

∵ the sign of the inequality is <

∴ we shad the part under the line

  region b and c

∵ the common region between the two lines is region b

∴ region b will make the inequalities y < 2x + 1 and y > -x - 2 true
