In analyzing hits by certain bombs in a​ war, an area was partitioned into ​regions, each with an area of km2. A total of bombs

hit the combined area of regions. Assume that we want to find the probability that a randomly selected region had exactly 3 hits.

x is 3 that is the number of hits

e = 2.71828 is the Euler number

μ is the mean in the given interval = 0.967

There is 5.72% probability that a randomly selected region had exactly three hits.

Let X be the random variable denoting the number of bombs hitting the selected sample.

The following formula determines the likelihood that x in a Poisson distribution corresponds to the number of successes of a random variable.

P(X = x) = e^₋μ × μˣ / (x)!

Here, X is the random variable denoting the number of bombs hitting the selected sample.

μ is the mean number of hits per region.

e is the constant value.

Since 535 bombs struck a total of 553 regions, the ratio of strikes per region to the total number of regions is 535 to 553.

μ = 535 / 553

μ = 0.967

Assume that we want to find the probability that a randomly selected region had exactly 3 hits.

which means, P(X = 3)

P(X = x) = e^₋μ × μˣ / (x)!

P(X = 3) = e^₋0.967 × (0.967)³/ (3)!

             = 0.057

There is approximately 5.72% probability that a randomly selected region had exactly three hits.

In analyzing hits by certain bombs in a​ war, an area was partitioned into ​553 regions, each with an area of 0.95 km². A total of 535 bombs hit the combined area of regions. Assume that we want to find the probability that a randomly selected region had exactly 3 hits.In applying the Poisson probability distribution formula,  P(X) = e^₋μ × μˣ / (x)!, identify the values of μ, x and e. Also , briefly describe what each of those symbols represent.

In a right triangle, angle C measures 40. the hypotenuse of the triangle is 10 inches long. what is the approximate length of th
IrinaVladis [17]

Since angle C is not 90 degrees, it's one of the acute angles
in the right triangle.


               (The side adjacent to angle C ) divided by (hypotenuse)

is the cosine of angle C .       


                    (adjacent) / (10 inches)  =  cos(40 degrees)

Multiply each side by (10 inches):

                    Adjacent side = (10 inches) x cos(40) =

                                              (10 inches)  x  0.766  = 

                                                              7.66 inches   (rounded)
