Last​ year, a person wrote 126 checks. Let the random variable x represent the number of checks he wrote in one​ day, and assume

that it has a Poisson distribution. What is the mean number of checks written per​ day? What is the standard​ deviation? What is the​ variance?

Answer:  The mean number of checks written per​ day  =0.3452

Standard deviation=0.5875

Variance  =0.3452

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The total number of checks wrote by person in a year = 126

Assume that the year is not a leap year.

Then  1 year = 365 days

Let the random variable x represent the number of checks he wrote in one​ day.

Then , the mean number of checks wrote by person each days id=s given by :-

\lambda=\dfrac{126}{365}\approx0.3452

Since , the distribution is Poisson distribution , then the variance must equal to the mean value i.e. \sigma^2=\lambda=0.3452

Standard deviation : \sigma=\sqrt{0.3452}=0.5875372328\approx0.5875

Graph each absolute value function. State the domain, range, and y-intercept.
Inessa05 [86]
Answer:

i. D:All real numbers

ii.R:y\le-2

iii. Y-int: b=-2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is

y=-\frac{1}{2} |x-1|-2

The domain of this function are the values of x that makes the function defined.

The absolute value function is defined for all real values.

The domain is all real numbers.

ii. The range refers to the values of y for which x is defined.

y=-\frac{1}{2} |x-1|-2

The vertex of this function is

(1,-2)

The function is reflected in the x-axis.

The vertex is therefore the maximum point on the graph of the function.

The range is therefore;

y\le-2

Or

(-\infty,2]

iii. To find the y-intercept, we substitute x=0 into the funtion.

y=-\frac{1}{2} |0-1|-2

y=-\frac{1}{2} (1)-2

y=-2.5

The y-intercept is b=-2.5

The graph is shown in the attachment.

Find the area of the blue shaded region.
Elodia [21]

Answer:

56

Step-by-step explanation:

area of whole figure=

l×b

=20×10

=200

also,area of small fig.

=l×b

=18×8

=144

thus area of shaded part =a of whole- a of small

=200-144

=56

Median: middle number

Mean: average

How to calculate the median:

1) line the numbers in order from least to greatest

0 1 2 4 5 24

(you do not need to write all the fours or fives, one four or five is enough to represent it)

2) Next, take one number off each end at a time until you have one number in the middle left (if there are two numbers left in the middle, add them together, than divide them by two)

3) The median is 4 becuase it is in the middle.

How to calculate the mean:

1) Add all the numbers together

0+24+1+4+5+2+5+4 = 45

2) Now we divide 45 by 8 because there are eight numbers in the list

45/8 = 5

3) The mean is 5.

Answer: Median = 4, Mean = 5
