Customers arrive at an automated teller machine at the times of a Poisson process with rate of 10 per hour. Suppose that the amount of money withdrawn on each transaction has a mean of $30 and a standard deviation of $20. Find the mean and standard deviation of the total withdrawals in 8 hours.

The fence around a quadrilateral-shaped pasture is 3a^2+15a+9 long. three sides of the fence have the following lengths: 5a, 10a-2, a^2-7. what is the length of the fourth side of the fence?

Amachine that produces a special type of transistor (a component of computers) has a 2% defective rate. the production is considered a random process where each transistor is independent of the others. (a) what is the probability that the 10th transistor produced is the first with a defect? (b) what is the probability that the machine produces no defective transistors in a batch of 100? (c) on average, how many transistors would you expect to be produced before the first with a defect? what is the standard deviation? (d) another machine that also produces transistors has a 5% defective rate where each transistor is produced independent of the others. on average how many transistors would you expect to be produced with this machine before the first with a defect? what is the standard deviation? (e) based on your answers to parts (c) and (d), how does increasing the probability of an event a↵ect the mean and standard deviation of the wait time until success?
