There are 30 students in Mr.Thomas' class.If he wants 20% of the students in each group, how many students will be in. each grou

zhuklara [117]

First you find out what 20% of 30 is (30 * 0.20 = 6)
Then you take 30/6 to get your answer (30/6 = 5)
There will be 5 students in each group.

An apartment complex rents an average of 2.3 new units per week. If the number of apartment rented each week Poisson distributed

masya89 [10]

Answer:

$P(X\leq 1) = 0.331$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Poisson Distribution;

Average rent in a week = 2.3

Required

Determine the probability of renting no more than 1 apartment

A Poisson distribution is given as;

$P(X = x) = \frac{y^xe^{-y}}{x!}$

Where y represents λ (average)

y = 2.3

<em>Probability of renting no more than 1 apartment = Probability of renting no apartment + Probability of renting 1 apartment</em>

<em />

Using probability notations;

$P(X\leq 1) = P(X=0) + P(X =1)$

Solving for P(X = 0) [substitute 0 for x and 2.3 for y]

$P(X = 0) = \frac{2.3^0 * e^{-2.3}}{0!}$

$P(X = 0) = \frac{1 * e^{-2.3}}{1}$

$P(X = 0) = e^{-2.3}$

$P(X = 0) = 0.10025884372$

Solving for P(X = 1) [substitute 1 for x and 2.3 for y]

$P(X = 1) = \frac{2.3^1 * e^{-2.3}}{1!}$

$P(X = 1) = \frac{2.3 * e^{-2.3}}{1}$

$P(X = 1) =2.3 * e^{-2.3}$

$P(X = 1) = 2.3 * 0.10025884372$

$P(X = 1) = 0.23059534055$

$P(X\leq 1) = P(X=0) + P(X =1)$

$P(X\leq 1) = 0.10025884372 + 0.23059534055$

$P(X\leq 1) = 0.33085418427$

$P(X\leq 1) = 0.331$

Hence, the required probability is 0.331

Which is greater than or less than

poizon [28]

Answer:

C. -2/3 < -0.8

F. -3/5 < -0.35

Therefor, -2/3 is less than -0.8.

And, -3/5 is also less than -0.35.

Also, you could turn the fractions into decimals to make your life easier for example, -3/5 into decimal form is -0.6.

And -2/3 into decimal form is -0.6666

* Hopefully this helps:) Mark me the brainliest:)!!
