Chapter 6, Problem 108

(choose chapter or problem)

Exponential Probability Between 5:00 PM and 6:00 PM, cars arrive at Jiffy Lube at the rate of 9 cars per hour (0.15 car per minute). The following formula from probability can be used to determine the probability that a car will arrive within t minutes of 5:00 PM: (a) Determine the probability that a car will arrive within 15 minutes of 5:00 PM (that is, before 5:15 PM). (b) Determine the probability that a car will arrive within 30 minutes of 5:00 PM (before 5:30 PM). (c) What value does F approach as t becomes unbounded in the positive direction? (d) Graph F using a graphing utility. (e) Using INTERSECT, determine how many minutes are needed for the probability to reach 60%.
