The manager of a gas station has observed that the times required by drivers to fill their car's tank and pay are quite variable. In fact, the times are exponentially distributed with a mean of 6.5 minutes. What is the probability that a car can complete the transaction in less than 6 minutes?
Consider a cohort of patients receiving an experimental two-year treatment for a serious disease. Suppose that only 20% of the patients survive to the end of the second year. Assume CFM (constant force of mortality) within each year of treatment. Find the probability that a patient who survives the first four months dies by the end of the 20th month. Round to 4 decimal places.
1. Studies of a specific enzyme activity showed that the time the enzyme activity before complete inactivity is exponentially distributed with a mean of 10 hours. Determine the failure rate.
2 The operator of a pumping station has observed that demand for water during early afternoon hours has an approximately exponential distribution with mean 100 cfs (cubic feet per second). (a) Find the probability that the demand will exceed 250 cfs during the early afternoon on a randomly selected day. (Round your answer to four decimal places.) (b) What water-pumping capacity, in cubic feet per second, should the station maintain during early afternoons so that the probability that demand will exceed capacity on a randomly selected day is only 0.02? (Round your answer to two decimal places.) cfs
The Baytown Post Office has 4 stations for service. Customers line up in single file for service on an FIFO basis. The mean arrival rate is 32 per hour, Poison distributed, and the mean service time per server is 6 minutes, exponentially distributed. Compute the operating characteristics for this operation. Does the operation appear to be satisfactory in terms of: (a) Postal workers' (servers') idle time; (Round answer to 3 decimal places, e.g. 2.750.) (b) customer waiting time and the number waiting for service; (c) the percentage of the time a customer can walk in and get served without waiting at all?
Suppose that the lifetime of a soft white light bulb follows an exponential distribution with expected value 300 hours, and the lifetime of an bright white light bulb follows an exponential distribution with expected value 700 hours, and the two lifetimes are independent. If we start using both light bulbs at the same time, then what is the probability that the soft white light bulb will burn out before the bright white light bulb?
The time intervals between successive barges passing a certain point on a busy waterway have an exponential distribution with mean 10 minutes. (a) Find the probability that the time interval between two successive barges is less than 8 minutes. (b) Find a time interval t such that we can be 95% sure that the time interval between two successive barges will be greater than t.
Suppose a system is made up of two components that function independently. The components are connected in parallel. One of the components lifetime in days can be expressed by an exponential distribution with A = 0.1. The second component has a lifetime that can be expressed as a lognormal distribution with u = 2.3 and o = 0.1. What is the reliability of the system at 11 days? .5579 .9454 .4421 .0545
