The random variable x is the number of occurrences of an event over an interval of ten minutes. It can be assumed that the probability of an occurrence is the same in any two time periods of an equal length. It is known that the mean number of occurrences in ten minutes is 5.4. The probability that there are more than 5 occurrences in ten minutes is:____.a. .0241.b. .0771.c. .1126.d. .9107.The random variable x satisfies which of the following probability distributions?
A. Normal.B. Poisson.C. Binomial
The options given don't correspond to the values in the question. The options are from another question where mean is 5.3 and the probability being looked for is for exactly 3 occurrences and 5 occurrences
Answer:
A) 0.6511
B) Poisson distribution
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given;
Mean: μ = 5.4 minutes
Now, we want to find the probability that there are more than 5 occurrences in ten minutes.
This will be written as;
P(x > 5) = 1 - P(x < 5)
P(x < 5) = P(x = 4) + P(x = 3) + P(x = 2) + P(x = 1) + P(x = 0)
We will use Poisson distribution for this. The formula is;
P(x) = [(e^(-μ)) × μ^(x)]/x!
P(0) = [(e^(-5.4)) × 5.4^(0)]/0! = 0.004517
P(1) = [(e^(-5.4)) × 5.4^(1)]/1! = 0.02439
P(2) = [(e^(-5.4)) × 5.4^(2)]/2! = 0.06585
P(3) = [(e^(-5.4)) × 5.4^(3)]/3! = 0.11853
P(4) = [(e^(-5.4)) × 5.4^(4)]/4! = 0.16
Thus;
P(x < 5) = 0.16 + 0.11853 + 0.06585 + 0.004517 = 0.3489
Thus;
P(x > 5) = 1 - P(x < 5) = 1 - 0.3489 = 0.6511
B) like seen from solution A above, we used Poisson distribution formula.
Thus, random variable x satisfies Poisson distribution

which of the following numbers is a multiple of 4
A. 734
B. 620
C. 626
D. 891
Answer:
the answer is B
Step-by-step explanation:
*a multiple of 4 means when a number is divided by 4, the answer will be a whole number
* a whole number is a number without fraction and decimal
A. 734/4 = 183.5 ❌
B. 620/4 = 155 ✅
C. 626/4 = 156.5 ❌
D. 891/4 = 222.75 ❌
Answer:
B. 620
Step-by-step explanation:
To find a multiple of 4, simply use the choices to divide by 4 and a multiple should end up with a WHOLE number, meaning there's no decimal or fraction.
You can simply get a calculator and do the following-
734 ÷ 4 = 183.5
⬆️ is NOT the answer because there's decimal620 ÷ 4 = 155 ✔️
⬆️ IS the answer because it is a whole number626 ÷ 4 = 156.4
⬆️ is NOT the answer because there's decimal891 ÷ 4 = 222.75
⬆️ is NOT the answer because there's decimalAnd finally, we can check our answer by using 155 × 4, and we get 620. That means 620 is a multiple of 4.

The difference of 2 numbers is 7. The sum of those numbers is 23. What are the 2 numbers?
Let's write this question as a systems of equations to solve.
x-y=7 (the difference)
x+y=23 (the sum)
Through the process of elimination we get
2x=30
x=15.
With that value of x, we can plug it back into any of the previous equations to get the value of y.
(15)-y=7 (Solve for y)
y=8.
The two numbers are 15 and 8.

Noah painted 3/20 of a fence in 1/2 a day how many days will it take him to paint the entire fence
Answer:
approximately 7 days
Step-by-step explanation:
20 ÷ 3 = 6.6 repeating, round up to 7 days
Answer:
3days and 8hours
Step-by-step explanation:
he painted 3/20 in 1/2day then
3/20 painted for 1/2 day =12 hours so
1/20 was painted in 12/3=4 hours
since 20 /20 will be how long will be needed to paint the entire fence
20*4hour = 80hours which is (24*3)+8 that will make
3days and 8hours or
3and 1/3 days

What is the x-and y-intercept of the graph 4x -5y =40??
Answer:
x-intercept = 10
y-intercept = -8
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]4x-5y=40[/tex]
To identify the y-intercept, we will need to format the equation in the form [tex]y=mx+b[/tex]. We can start by subtracting [tex]4x[/tex] from both sides of the equation:
[tex]-5y=-4x+40[/tex]
Divide both sides of the equation by the coefficient of [tex]y[/tex], which is [tex]-5[/tex]:
[tex]y=\frac{-4}{-5} x - 8[/tex]
The [tex]b[/tex] is representative of the y-intercept in [tex]y=mx+b[/tex].
Identify [tex]b[/tex] in the equation [tex]y=\frac{-4}{-5} x - 8[/tex]:
[tex]b=-8[/tex]
Therefore, our y-intercept is -8.
To solve for the x-intercept, replace the [tex]y[/tex] in the equation [tex]y=\frac{-4}{-5} x - 8[/tex] with a zero:
[tex]0=\frac{-4}{-5} x - 8[/tex]
Add [tex]8[/tex] to both sides of the equation:
[tex]8=\frac{-4}{-5} x[/tex]
You can go ahead and divide [tex]-4[/tex] by [tex]-5[/tex] to get rid of the fraction:
[tex]8=0.8x[/tex]
Divide both sides of the equation by the coefficient of [tex]x[/tex], which is [tex]0.8[/tex]:
[tex]10=x[/tex]
Therefore, our x-intercept is 10.

worms are used to break down food waste and create a soil conditioning compost. Some worm populations double every 3 months. Suppose the formula y=2(2^x/3) represent the pounds of worms in a population after x months. If there are initially 2 pounds of worms, how many pounds of worms will there be in 1 year? If 2 pounds is approximately 2,000 worms, how many worms will there be after 1 yesr?
8,000 each three months the population is doubled so i figured that each three months there are 2000 more worms i multiplied 3 by 4 Because 3 x 4 is 12 and a year is 12 months, and got 8,000 by multiplying 2,000 by 4. Hope this helps
