Answer:
3.) x = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
Let’s plug it into our equation
2(10) + 1 = 21
21 is greater than 15
Answer:
a. P(x = 0 | λ = 1.2) = 0.301
b. P(x ≥ 8 | λ = 1.2) = 0.000
c. P(x > 5 | λ = 1.2) = 0.002
Step-by-step explanation:
If the number of defects per carton is Poisson distributed, with parameter 1.2 pens/carton, we can model the probability of k defects as:

a. What is the probability of selecting a carton and finding no defective pens?
This happens for k=0, so the probability is:

b. What is the probability of finding eight or more defective pens in a carton?
This can be calculated as one minus the probablity of having 7 or less defective pens.



c. Suppose a purchaser of these pens will quit buying from the company if a carton contains more than five defective pens. What is the probability that a carton contains more than five defective pens?
We can calculate this as we did the previous question, but for k=5.

Answer:
the probability of getting exactly 2 fours is 0.16
Step-by-step explanation:
The probability of obtaining a number that is four = ¹/₆
The probability of obtaining a non 4 number = 1 - ¹/₆ = ⁵/₆
The number of ways 2 fours can be arrange in five numbers = ⁵C₂ = 10 ways
If the die is tossed five times, the probability of the events is calculated as;
P = 10 x (¹/₆)² x (⁵/₆)³
P = 10 x (¹/₃₆) x (¹²⁵/₂₁₆)
P = 10 x 0.02778 x 0.5787
P = 0.16
Therefore, the probability of getting exactly 2 fours is 0.16
