help with a math/stats/probability question -the customer is given a 10% discount on the purchase?
Many retail stores offer their own credit cards. At the time of the credit
application, the customer is given a 10% discount on the purchase. The time required
for the credit application process follows a uniform distribution with the times
ranging from 4 minutes to 10 minutes.
a. Show the uniform distribution
b. Show that the area under the curve is equal to 1.
c. What is the mean time for the application process?
d. What is the standard deviation for the process time?
e. What is the likelihood a particular application will take less than 6 minutes?
f. What is the likelihood a particular application will take more than 5 minutes?
3 AnswersMathematics8 years agoT/F Stats Questions- these are the questions I was iffy on? Q: To apply the special rule of addition, the even?
True or False
a. Based on a classical approach, the probability of an event is defined as the number of
favorable outcomes divided by the total number of possible outcomes.
b. To apply the special rule of addition, the events must be independent
c. To apply the special rule of addition, the events must be mutually exclusive
d. A coin is tossed four times. The probability is ¼ or 0.25 that all four tosses will result
in a head face up
e. A combination of a set of objects is defined by the order of the objects
f. Two coins are tossed. The tossing the coins is called an experiment, and one possible
event is two heads
g. The combination formula is: n! / (n - r)!
h. If two events are mutually exclusive, then P(A or B) = P(A) P(B).
I. A probability is a number from -1 to +1.
j. The closer a probability is to 0, the more likely the event will happen
