Trucks are known to arrive according to a Poisson distribution at a given weight station (checkpoint along a highway to inspect vehicular weights). Trucks are counted in 5-min intervals, and count data (number of trucks in 5-min intervals) are taken in 2,000 of these time intervals. It is noted that no trucks arrive in 100 of these 2000 intervals.

a) What is the probability of observing between 5 and 7 trucks?
b) With the same information, estimate the % of headways that are between 15 and 30 seconds (7 points)

Two line segments are shown in the figure below. suppose that the length of the line along the x-axis is 6, and the length of the hypotenuse of the triangle is 10. what is the equation of the hypotenuse line (shown in red, below)?

An annual marathon covers a route that has a distance of approximately 26 miles. winning times for this marathon are all over 2 hours. the following data are the minutes over 2 hours for the winning male runners over two periods of 20 years each. earlier period 14 12 15 22 13 10 19 13 9 14 20 18 16 20 23 12 18 17 6 13 recent period 7 11 7 14 8 9 11 14 8 7 9 8 7 9 9 9 9 8 10 8 (a) make a stem-and-leaf display for the minutes over 2 hours of the winning times for the earlier period. use two lines per stem.
