Question 846 – Engineering-Mathematics

In a multi-user operating system, 30 requests are made to use a particular resource per hour, on an average. The probability that no requests are made in 40 minutes, when arrival pattern is a poisson distribution, is

Correct Answer: D

Question 643 Explanation: 
→ In probability theory, a Poisson process is a stochastic process that counts the number of events and the time points at which these events occur in a given time interval.
→ The time between each pair of consecutive events has an exponential distribution with parameter λ and each of these inter-arrival times is assumed to be independent of other inter-arrival times.
→ λ = (40*30)/60
= 20

P(T > 40min) = 1 – P(T ≤ 40 min)
= 1 – (1 – e-40min/λ)

= 1 – (1 – e-40min/20)
= e-20
A
e-15
B
1 – e-15
C
1 – e-20
D
e-20
