Answer:

<h2>p(obtaining a red counter) = 0.625</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of counters in the bag is 5 + 3 = 8.

and only 5 are red.

Then

the probability of obtaining a red counter is :

= \frac{5}{8} = 0.625

Answer:

18.04% probability that exactly 3 serious deviations and incursions will occur at LAX in a randomly selected year

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.

Suppose the mean number of deviations and incursions per year at the Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) is 2.

This means that \mu = 2

Find the probability that exactly 3 serious deviations and incursions will occur at LAX in a randomly selected year

This is P(X = 3).

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

P(X = 3) = \frac{e^{-2}*2^{3}}{(3)!} = 0.1804

18.04% probability that exactly 3 serious deviations and incursions will occur at LAX in a randomly selected year
