Firstly, I think you may have written a word wrong "umaswerable", and I'd like to know what word actually should be there? Secondly, I'm not that familiar with that part of the world (Mexico), but from the poem I would say they were on the run (trying to flee their country) or just were living in the car, because they didn't have enough money. Both could be true, the first one at the beginning and the second one after. The boy clearly suffered some sort of trauma (at age 7) and may even have lost a hand ("one small hand") and they have had a rough time since ("umasw... woes").

<span>Nye describes her experience being comforted by her mother when she was sick. Her mother told her she was not dying as long as she still had the strength to make a fist. Nye then writes that she is still comforted by this thought.</span>

The poem has several devices such as:

</span>Allusion it can be applied because it refers to a past historical event.<span>
</span><span>Imagery because it describes in detail the palm trees. Among other things. 

The tone </span>is nostalgic because she is looking back on she was traveling but she also uses a tone of pride because she survived the journey and she can still make her hand into a fist .

On average, 5 customers arrive at the drive-up window of a fast-food restaurant every 4 minutes during the lunch hour. What is t
Nata [24]

Answer: 0.9765

Explanation:

The cumulative distribution function for exponential distribution for random variable x is given by :-

F(x)=1-e^{-\lambda x}, where \lambda is the mean of the distribution .

Given : On average, 5 customers arrive at the drive-up window of a fast-food restaurant every 4 minutes during the lunch hour.

Then \lambda=\dfrac{5}{4}=1.25

Now, the probability that the next customer will arrive within three minutes :-

P(x< 3)=1-e^{-1.25 \times 3}=0.97648225\approx0.9765

Hence, the probability that the next customer will arrive within three minutes = 0.9765
