Answer:

6 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

speed = distance/time

speed = 1/2÷1/12 which is the same as

1/2 x 12/1 = 6

6 miles per hour.

or ou could change the 1/2 to become 0.5

and the 1/12 to become 0.083333333

and divide 0.5 ÷ 0.083333333 = 6.000000024

rounded to one decima place become 6.0

6 miles per hour

Answer:

$P(X = 5) = 0.166$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Mean = 4.3$

$x = 5$

Required

Determine the probability that the order is 5

This question can be answered using Poisson distribution.

$P(X = x) = \frac{\alpha ^x e^{-\alpha}}{x!}$

Where

$\alpha$ is used to represent the mean

and

$\alpha = 4.3$

$x = 5$

$e = 2.71828$ ---- Euler's constant

So, we have:

$P(X = x) = \frac{\alpha ^x e^{-\alpha}}{x!}$

$P(X = 5) = \frac{4.3^5 * 2.71828^{-4.3}}{5!}$

$P(X = 5) = \frac{4.3^5 * 2.71828^{-4.3}}{5* 4 * 3 * 2 *1}$

$P(X = 5) = \frac{4.3^5 * 2.71828^{-4.3}}{120}$

$P(X = 5) = \frac{1470.08443 * 0.01356859825}{120}$

$P(X = 5) = \frac{19.9469850243}{120}$

$P(X = 5) = 0.1662248752$

$P(X = 5) = 0.166$ Approximated
