a mail-order computer business has six telepone lines. let x denote the number of lines in use at a specified time. suppose the mass function of x is given by
x
what proportion of the time will:
a.) at least five lines be in use?
b.)be between two and four lines, inclusive, be in use?
c.) at least four lines not be in use?
| x | 0 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 |
| p(x) | 0.10 | 0.15 | 0.20 | 0.25 | 0.20 |
Solution
a. 0.10
b. 0.20 + 0.25 + 0.20 = 0.65
c. 1 - 0.30 = 0.70
