每天早上,彼得都要坐公交车去上学。他平均每天在早上 6:30 到达公交站。他到达公交站的时间服从正态分布,标准差为 10 分钟。第一班公交车将于早上 6:40 准时出发,第二班公交车将于早上 6:50 准时出发。无论公交车何时离开公交站,公交车程都服从均值为 45 分钟、标准差为 20 分钟的正态分布。如果彼得在早上 7:30 之后到达学校,或者错过了早上 6:50 的公交车,他就迟到了。 假设彼得到达公交站的时间与公交车程所花费的时间是相互独立的,求以下概率:

  1. ((i))

    彼得会错过早上 6:50 的公交车。

  2. ((ii))

    证明彼得学校上学迟到的概率为 0.442。

  3. ((iii))

    在某一个五天工作周中,求彼得至少迟到 2 天的概率。

  4. ((iv))

    使用适当的近似方法,求在 40 个五天工作周中,彼得平均每周至少迟到 2 天的概率。

完整解法

10((i))

1. Define the random variable and its normal distribution.

Let TT be the time Peter reaches the bus stop, in minutes after 6:30 am.
Since his average arrival time is 6:30 am and the standard deviation is 1010 minutes, we have:
T∼N(0,102)T \sim \mathrm{N}(0, 10^2)

2. Calculate the probability that he arrives after 6:50 am.

To miss the 6:50 am bus, Peter must arrive after 6:50 am, which is 2020 minutes after 6:30 am.
P(T>20)=0.022750...P(T > 20) = 0.022750...
P(T>20)≈0.0228 (to 3 s.f.)P(T > 20) \approx 0.0228 \text{ (to 3 s.f.)}

答案

0.0228

10((ii))

1. Define the normal distributions for the arrival time at the bus stop and the journey duration.

Let TT be Peter's arrival time at the bus stop in minutes past 6:00 am.
T∼N(30,102)T \sim \text{N}(30, 10^2)
Let JJ be the duration of the bus journey in minutes.
J∼N(45,202)J \sim \text{N}(45, 20^2)

2. Identify the mutually exclusive scenarios in which Peter is late.

Peter is late in three mutually exclusive scenarios:

  1. He misses the 6:50 am bus: T>50T > 50.
  2. He takes the 6:40 am bus (T≤40T \le 40) and the journey takes more than 50 minutes (6:40 am+50 mins=7:30 am6:40\text{ am} + 50\text{ mins} = 7:30\text{ am}), so J>50J > 50.
  3. He takes the 6:50 am bus (40<T≤5040 < T \le 50) and the journey takes more than 40 minutes (6:50 am+40 mins=7:30 am6:50\text{ am} + 40\text{ mins} = 7:30\text{ am}), so J>40J > 40.

3. Calculate the required normal probabilities for $T$ and $J$.

From the standard normal distribution:
P(T>50)≈0.022750\text{P}(T > 50) \approx 0.022750
P(T≤40)≈0.841345\text{P}(T \le 40) \approx 0.841345
P(40<T≤50)≈0.135905\text{P}(40 < T \le 50) \approx 0.135905
P(J>50)≈0.401294\text{P}(J > 50) \approx 0.401294
P(J>40)≈0.598706\text{P}(J > 40) \approx 0.598706

4. Calculate the total probability of being late by summing the probabilities of each scenario.

Since TT and JJ are independent, we multiply their probabilities for each scenario and sum them:
P(Late)=P(T>50)+P(T≤40)P(J>50)+P(40<T≤50)P(J>40)\text{P}(\text{Late}) = \text{P}(T > 50) + \text{P}(T \le 40)\text{P}(J > 50) + \text{P}(40 < T \le 50)\text{P}(J > 40)
P(Late)≈0.022750+(0.841345×0.401294)+(0.135905×0.598706)\text{P}(\text{Late}) \approx 0.022750 + (0.841345 \times 0.401294) + (0.135905 \times 0.598706)
P(Late)≈0.022750+0.337626+0.081367\text{P}(\text{Late}) \approx 0.022750 + 0.337626 + 0.081367
P(Late)≈0.441743≈0.442 (shown)\text{P}(\text{Late}) \approx 0.441743 \approx 0.442 \text{ (shown)}

答案

0.442

10((iii))

1. Define the random variable and state its distribution using the probability from part (ii).

Let WW be the number of days Peter is late for school in a 5-day week.
Given from part (ii) that the probability of being late on any given day is 0.4420.442,
W∼B(5,0.442)W \sim \mathrm{B}(5, 0.442)

2. Calculate the probability that Peter is late on at least 2 days.

P(W≥2)=1−P(W≤1)\mathrm{P}(W \ge 2) = 1 - \mathrm{P}(W \le 1)
=1−0.26858= 1 - 0.26858
=0.73142≈0.731= 0.73142 \approx 0.731 (to 3 s.f.)

答案

0.7310.731

10((iv))

1. Define the random variable for the number of late days in a week and find its mean and variance.

Let XX be the number of days Peter is late in a 5-day week.
X∼B(5,0.442)X \sim \mathrm{B}(5, 0.442)
E(X)=np=5(0.442)=2.21\mathrm{E}(X) = np = 5(0.442) = 2.21
Var(X)=np(1−p)=5(0.442)(1−0.442)=1.23318\mathrm{Var}(X) = np(1-p) = 5(0.442)(1-0.442) = 1.23318

2. Apply the Central Limit Theorem to state the distribution of the sample mean.

Let Xˉ\bar{X} be the average number of late days per week over a sample of n=40n=40 weeks.
Since the sample size n=40n = 40 is large (n≥30n \ge 30), the Central Limit Theorem applies, and Xˉ\bar{X} follows an approximately normal distribution:
Xˉ∼N(E(X),Var(X)n)\bar{X} \sim \mathrm{N}\left(\mathrm{E}(X), \frac{\mathrm{Var}(X)}{n}\right)
Xˉ∼N(2.21,1.2331840)\bar{X} \sim \mathrm{N}\left(2.21, \frac{1.23318}{40}\right)
Xˉ∼N(2.21,0.0308295)\bar{X} \sim \mathrm{N}(2.21, 0.0308295)

3. Calculate the probability that the average number of late days per week is at least 2.

We require P(Xˉ≥2)\mathrm{P}(\bar{X} \ge 2).
Using a graphing calculator,
P(Xˉ≥2)≈0.88417≈0.884\mathrm{P}(\bar{X} \ge 2) \approx 0.88417 \approx 0.884 (to 3 s.f.)

答案

0.8840.884
