The mean number of daily surgeries at a local hospital is 6.2. Assume that surgeries are random, independent events. (a) The cou

nt of daily surgeries follows approximately: A Poisson distribution with mean 6.2 and standard deviation 2.49. A binomial distribution with mean 6.2 and standard deviation 3.1. A binomial distribution with mean 6.2 and standard deviation 1.76. A binomial distribution with mean 6.2 and standard deviation 3.8. A Poisson distribution with mean 6.2 and standard deviation 6.2. (b) The probability that there would be only 2 or fewer surgeries in a given day is approximately (round to 4 decimal places):

Answer:

1)  Poisson distribution with mean 6.2 and standard deviation 2.49.

2) 0.0536

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Mean of daily surgeries = 6.2

a) The count of daily surgeries can be treated as a Poisson distribution.

  • The Poisson distribution is the discrete probability distribution of the number of events occurring in a given time period, given the average number of times the event occurs over that time period.
  • The variance of Poisson distribution is equal to the mean of Poisson distribution.

Variance = 6.2

Standard deviation = \sqrt{6.2} = 2.49

a) Poisson distribution with mean 6.2 and standard deviation 2.49.

2) P( 2 or less surgeries)

Formula:

P(X =k) = \displaystyle\frac{\lambda^k e^{-\lambda}}{k!}\\\\ \lambda \text{ is the mean of the distribution}

P( x \leq 2) = P(x =0) + P(x=1) + P(x=2)\\\\= \displaystyle\frac{6.2^0 e^{-6.2}}{0!} + \displaystyle\frac{6.2^1 e^{-6.2}}{1!} + \displaystyle\frac{6.2^2 e^{-6.2}}{2!}\\\\ = 0.00203+ 0.01259 + 0.03900\\\\= 0.0536 = 5.36\%

Answer:

it's (4,4) since the point is right on top of (4,6) and by doing that it would make a closed quadrilateral

Step-by-step explanation:

it would be best to plot your points and whichever it lands on would be your next point.

Describe, in general, the steps for producing a frieze pattern.
Delvig [45]

An infinite strip with a symmetric pattern is called a frieze pattern.

There are only seven possible frieze pattern.

1. Translation symmetry only.

2. Glide reflection plus translation symmetry.

3. Reflection over a horizontal line plus translation.

4. Reflection over a vertical line plus translation.

5. Rotation (a half-turn about a point on the mid line of the strip) plus translation.

6. Reflection over a vertical line plus a reflection over a horizontal line plus translation.

7. Reflection over a vertical line plus glide reflection plus translation.
