Answer: 60.5 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of rectangle = length times width

Length = 5.5 in

Width = 11 in

11 x 5.5 = 60.5

The area of the rectangle is 60.5 in

The formula to find the area of a rectangle is A = wl.

A = (11)(5.5)
A = 60.5

The area of the rectangle is 60.5 inches squared.

Which expression represents the number of feet that are in x yards?

AleksandrR [38]

we know that

$1\ yard=3\ feet$

Let

y-------> the number of feet that are in x yards

by proportion

<u>Find the value of y</u>

$\frac{3}{1} \frac{feet}{yard}=\frac{y}{x} \frac{feet}{yards} \\ \\y=3x\ feet$

therefore

<u>the answer is the option C</u>

$3x$

In Northern Yellowstone Lake, earthquakes occur at a mean rate of 1.3 quakes per year. Let X be the number of quakes in a given

hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

a) Earthquakes are random and independent events.

b) There is an 85.71% probability of fewer than three quakes.

c) There is a 0.51% probability of more than five quakes.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a Poisson distribution, the probability that X represents the number of successes of a random variable is given by the following formula:

$P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}$

In which

x is the number of sucesses

e = 2.71828 is the Euler number

$\mu$ is the mean in the given time interval.

In this problem, we have that:

In Northern Yellowstone Lake, earthquakes occur at a mean rate of 1.3 quakes per year, so $\mu = 1.3$

(a) Justify the use of the Poisson model.

Earthquakes are random and independent events.

You can't predict when a earthquake is going to happen, or how many are going to have in a year. It is an estimative.

(b) What is the probability of fewer than three quakes?

This is $P(X < 3)$

$P(X < 3) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2)$

$P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}$

$P(X = 0) = \frac{e^{-1.3}*1.3^{0}}{(0)!} = 0.2725$

$P(X = 1) = \frac{e^{-1.3}*1.3^{1}}{(1)!} = 0.3543$

$P(X = 2) = \frac{e^{-1.3}*1.3^{2}}{(2)!} = 0.2303$

$P(X < 3) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) = 0.2725 + 0.3543 + 0.2303 = 0.8571$

There is an 85.71% probability of fewer than three quakes.

(c) What is the probability of more than five quakes?

This is $P(X > 5)$

We know that either there are 5 or less earthquakes, or there are more than 5 earthquakes. The sum of the probabilities of these events is decimal 1.

$P(X \leq 5) + P(X > 5) = 1$

$P(X > 5) = 1 - P(X \leq 5)$

In which

$P(X \leq 5) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5)$

$P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}$

$P(X = 0) = \frac{e^{-1.3}*1.3^{0}}{(0)!} = 0.2725$

$P(X = 1) = \frac{e^{-1.3}*1.3^{1}}{(1)!} = 0.3543$

$P(X = 2) = \frac{e^{-1.3}*1.3^{2}}{(2)!} = 0.2303$

$P(X = 3) = \frac{e^{-1.3}*1.3^{3}}{(3)!} = 0.0980$

$P(X = 4) = \frac{e^{-1.3}*1.3^{4}}{(4)!} = 0.0324$

$P(X = 5) = \frac{e^{-1.3}*1.3^{5}}{(5)!} = 0.0084$

$P(X \leq 5) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) = 0.2725 + 0.3543 + 0.2303 + 0.0980 + 0.0324 + 0.0084 = 0.9949$

Finally

$P(X > 5) = 1 - P(X \leq 5) = 1 - 0.9949 = 0.0051$

There is a 0.51% probability of more than five quakes.
