For questions 99 to 100, the wait time of curious rides at the amusement park is normally distributed with a mean of 15 minutes and a standard deviation of 4 minutes. What is the probability that someone will wait for at least 20 minutes? 89.400 42.17 17.990 106. What is the probability that someone will wait between X and Y minutes? 59.4490 68.14 73.188 79.59.

The time between arrivals of taxis at a busy intersection is exponentially distributed with a mean of 10 minutes. (i) What is the probability that you wait longer than one hour for a taxi? (ii) Suppose that you have already been waiting for one hour for a taxi. What is the probability that one arrives within the next 10 minutes? (iii) Determine x such that the probability that you wait more than x minutes is 0.10. (iv) Determine x such that the probability that you wait less than x minutes is 0.90.

Let X be the waiting time for a patient in a doctor's office, where X has an average value of 25 minutes. If the random variable X is known to be exponentially distributed, what is the probability that the wait time is less than 35 minutes?

00:01 Hello students for the given problem we have to calculate the probability for that we will use the formula for the z -score z is mu of x where x is the value which we want to find probability for mu is mean which is given to be 15 minutes and sigma is the standard deviation given.
00:23 Now we will calculate probability that someone will wait for at least 20 minutes means x therefore z is 20 -t by 8 pi which comes out to be 1 .5...
