Answer:
b = 5√3
b = -5√3
Step-by-step explanation:
We have
Keep in mind, the root of a function corresponds to the value of x at which the function's output is zero.
In this case
The roots of the equation are the b values for which f(b) equals zero.
Thus
For f(b)=0
Take the square root of both sides
Now simplify
and
So we find that
b = 5√3
b = -5√3
Response: a) 0.9980, b) 0.0013, c) 0.0020, d) 0.00000026, e) 0.0318
Detailed explanation:
In Problem 8-4, the computer time-sharing system experiences teleport inquiries at an average rate of 0.1 per millisecond. We are tasked with determining the probabilities of the inquiries over a specific period of 50 milliseconds:
Given that
Applying the Poisson process, we find that
(a) at most 12
probability=
(b) exactly 13
probability=
(c) more than 12
probability=
(d) exactly 20
probability=
(e) within the range of 10 to 15, inclusive
probability=
Thus, a) 0.9980, b) 0.0013, c) 0.0020, d) 0.00000026, e) 0.0318
