When a fisherman catches a fish (either young or adult), it is a young one with a probability of 0.39 and it is returned to the water. On the other hand, an adult fish is kept to be eaten later. (Round your answers to four decimal places.) Suppose that the fisherman wants three fish to eat for lunch. If the fisherman catches eight fish, what is the probability that there are sufficient fish for lunch?

Billy is walking from the front door of his house to his bus stop, which is 940 feet away from his front door. As Billy walks out his front door he walks in a straight path toward his bus stop at a constant rate of 7.5 feet per second. a) Define a function f to determine Billy's distance from his bus stop in terms of the number of seconds he has been walking. b) What is the independent quantity and...

A student is running to catch the bus, which is stopped at the bus stop. The student is running at a constant velocity of 6 m/s: she cannot run any faster. When the student is still 80 m from the bus, it starts to pull away. The bus moves with a constant acceleration of 0.20 m/s^2. a. For how much time and how far will the student have to run before she catches up with the bus? b. When she...

Problem 3. Alice is waiting for a bus at a bus stop. She needs to take a bus number 10 or 12, and she takes the first suitable bus that arrives. The arrival time of bus 10 is exponential with λ10 = 6/19, and the arrival time of bust 12 is exponential with λ12 = 3/19. Moreover, arrival times of 10 and 12 are independent. What is the probability that Alice will take bus number 10 instead of bus number...
