Cars cross a certain point in the highway in accordance with a Poisson process with rate λ = 3 per minute. If Al runs blindly across the highway, what is the probability that he will be uninjured if the amount of time that it takes him to cross the road is s seconds? (Assume that if he is on the highway when a car passes by, then he will be injured.) Do this exercise for s = 2, 5, 10, 20.

step-by-step explanation:

it's the only multiple of both and the least

the cost of the pair of pants is $31.95

part a: triangles gcb and epb

part b. sides cg and rp are parallel by definition of parallelogram.

angles cgb and e are congruent by being alternate interior angles of parallel lines cut by a transversal. angles gbc and ebp are congruent because they are vertical angles. by aa similarity, the triangles are similar.

part c. since the triangles are similar, the ratios of the lengths of corresponding sides are equal.

calculation of be:

gb/be = cb/bp

(400 ft)/be = 300/200

(400 ft)/be = 3/2

3be = 2 * 400 ft

3be = 800 ft

be = 800/3 ft

calculation of pe:

gc/pe = cb/bp

(350 ft)/pe = 300/200

(350 ft)/pe = 3/2

3pe = 2 * 350 ft

3pe = 700 ft

pe = 700/3 ft
