Area = perimeter + 132.  

Let  each side of the city be x miles long, then:-

x^2 = 4x  + 132
x^2 - 4x - 132 = 0

x  =  [-(-4) +/- sqrt((-4)^2 - 4 * 1 *-132)] / 2

x = 13.66, -9.66   We ignore the negative

So the city  has dimension of 13.66 * 13.66

13.7 * 13.7   to nearest 10th

Consider a Poisson distribution with μ = 6.
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

a) P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-6}*6^{x}}{(x)!}

b) f(2) = 0.04462

c) f(1) = 0.01487

d) P(X \geq 2) = 0.93803

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 successes

e = 2.71828 is the Euler number

\mu is the mean in the given interval.

In this question:

\mu = 6

a. Write the appropriate Poisson probability function.

Considering \mu = 6

P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-6}*6^{x}}{(x)!}

b. Compute f (2).

This is P(X = 2). So

P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-6}*6^{x}}{(x)!}

P(X = 2) = \frac{e^{-6}*6^{2}}{(2)!} = 0.04462

So f(2) = 0.04462

c. Compute f (1).

This is P(X = 1). So

P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-6}*6^{x}}{(x)!}

P(X = 1) = \frac{e^{-6}*6^{1}}{(1)!} = 0.01487

So f(1) = 0.01487.

d. Compute P(x≥2)

This is:

P(X \geq 2) = 1 - P(X < 2)

In which:

P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2)

P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-6}*6^{x}}{(x)!}

P(X = 0) = \frac{e^{-6}*6^{0}}{(0)!} = 0.00248

P(X = 1) = \frac{e^{-6}*6^{1}}{(1)!} = 0.01487

P(X = 2) = \frac{e^{-6}*6^{2}}{(2)!} = 0.04462

Then

P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) = 0.00248 + 0.01487 + 0.04462 = 0.06197

P(X \geq 2) = 1 - P(X < 2) = 1 - 0.06197 = 0.93803

So

P(X \geq 2) = 0.93803

HELPPPP PLEASE UNDER 10 MINUTESS
Eduardwww [97]
You can just subtract 6% from 30% to get the correct percentage decrease because a sales tax is added to the price. 

30%-6%= 24%

Convert that to a decimal.

24%= .24

50*.24= 12

50-12= 38
