Answer:

The initial value in the word problem is the output value when input value is set to zero.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the question, it is given that a problem uses a linear function.

It is required to explain how to interpret the initial value in a word problem.

In order to find the initial value in a world problem, find the output value when input value is set to zero.

If the initial value is marked as b for a linear function f(x), find it as follow,

b = f (x=0)

The probability that a rental car will be stolen is. 4. if 3500 cars are rented, what is the approximate poisson probability tha

kozerog [31]

Using the Poisson distribution, there is a 0.8335 = 83.35% probability that 2 or fewer will be stolen.

<h3>What is the Poisson distribution?</h3>

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

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

The parameters are:

x is the number of successes

e = 2.71828 is the Euler number

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

The probability that a rental car will be stolen is 0.0004, hence, for 3500 cars, the mean is:

$\mu = 3500 \times 0.0004 = 1.4$

The probability that 2 or fewer cars will be stolen is:

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

In which:

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

$P(X = 0) = \frac{e^{-1.4}1.4^{0}}{(0)!} = 0.2466$

$P(X = 1) = \frac{e^{-1.4}1.4^{1}}{(1)!} = 0.3452$

$P(X = 2) = \frac{e^{-1.4}1.4^{2}}{(2)!} = 0.2417$

Then:

$P(X \leq 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) = 0.2466 + 0.3452 + 0.2417 = 0.8335$

0.8335 = 83.35% probability that 2 or fewer will be stolen.

The city planning committee wants one tree planted every 20 ft along Dayton Ave. if the perimeter of the plot of land is 234 ft

Vladimir [108]

Answer:

2 trees

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the city is planting a tree every 20 feet across Dayton Avenue, then we need to find the length of the side that is on Dayton Avenue.

We are missing 3 sides to this. But it's extremely important to note that the side adjacent to Dayton Avenue is the same length as the other missing two sides combined. This is because both of these lengths contain the 1 feather and 2 feather mark - these signify congruence.

This means that the side lengths of both of them combined will be $234-52-68=114$

This means the side adjacent to Dayton Avenue is

$114\div2=57$ feet long.

Now that we know that the side is 57 feet long, we have to divide this by 20, as a tree is being placed every 20 feet. If we get a decimal, we will have to round down because it gets planted only, and only if, 20 more feet has been accomplished. If we are a fraction of the way there, a tree doesn't get planted.

$57\div20=2.85$

Rounding down gets us 2.

Hope this helped!
