It is based on the concept of Exponential distribution. Continuous random variable as it is measured- If x is the amount of time the phone call lasts which is 30 min in this scenario As time is mean for decaying, the decaying parameter her is 1/mean = 1/12 = 0.08 So, the probability that phone call...

We can model the phone call with an exponential function has a Probability density Function (PDF) that can be represented as where b>0 and the random variable 'x' represents the time taken by the phone call and f(x) represents the probability that the phone call lasts exactly 'x' hours. Then...

We can model the phone call with an exponential function has a Probability density Function (PDF) that can be represented as where b>0 and the random variable 'x' represents the time taken by the phone call and f(x) represents the probability that the phone call lasts exactly 'x' hours. Then the probability that the phone call takes less than 'y' hours is given by If the mean call time is 12 (0.2 hours) minutes, it means that the probability that the call lasts 12 minutes (0.2 hours) or less is 0.5, Thus substituting y = 0.2, in the above equation we get Then the probability that the call takes more than half an hour = 1-P(0.5) = read less

Qualified teacher with overall 6 years of research and teaching experience.

Formula for exponential distribution is : f(x) = me–mx By replacing the variables with mean = 12 mins and by information call will last for 0.2 hours to 0.5 hours, we can get the required probability will be : 1-me–mx So, the answer is 0.082
