Resolved Question: Probability Calculus/Statistics Question?

You should use an exponential distribution function for this problem. The manager of a fast food restaurant determines that the average time that her customers will wait for service is 1 minutes. A. Find the probability that a customer will wait more than 6 minutes? B. Find the probability that a customer is served within the first 5 minutes? C. The manager wants to advertise that anybody who isn't served within a certain number of minutes gets a free hamburger. However, she doesn't want to give away free hamburgers to more than 4 percent of her customers. What should the advertisement say; ie. what should the certain number of minutes be? Your answer should be an integer (round up). more

Resolved Question: answer if your an english teacher or maybe a journo.. its my homework, letter to the editor about obese kids..?

Is It Good?comment. It’s Our Future 7th September 2009 Dear Editor, I would like to write about my concerns of the many overweight and obese Kids with-in Australia. Like many hard working parents in Australia, they don’t have the time to make lunch for their children. This usually leads to parents having to give money to their child so he/she can buy food at the canteen. This gives the child the opportunity to buy something that tastes nice and will go down well. Most food sold at the canteen is filled with sugar. Now imagine a little boy buying the same kinds of sugary snacks on every school day for six or more years every day, would he be a Healthy boy? Junk food advertisement such as MC Donald’s has a short but Effective kick on kids. The ads are advertised during popular programs and are designed to target families, but what they are really doing is disguising that fast food stores are fun with brand new toys to play with and even a play ground outside which would appear fun for the child. Fast food places even have big signs in front of the store but if you look at the healthier fast food stores such as Sub Way, there are no play grounds, toys or even big signs. Which fast food stores would your child prefer to eat at? A place with fatty but tasty food and play grounds to play around after or a store with a healthy option of food with a possible cookie after? Even statistics show that kids are becoming heavier and overweight. It is estimated that in Australia, 20-25% of children and adolescents are overweight or obese. This equals a total of one million overweight or obese children and adolescents. The percentage of young people who are overweight has more than tripled since 1980. Among children and teens aged 6-19 years. How much longer can this happen? When will we as a great country take a stand to prevent this from happening? It’s us who can stop the percentage of kids becoming heavier, if it becomes successful, maybe other countries will follow in our footsteps and make the world a better place. Ryan Hardy.
