(2 4/5) / 6 =
(14/5) / 6 =
14/5 * 1/6 =
14/30 reduces to 7/15 of a tablespoon each dose

2 4/5 tbs = 2.8 tbs

2.8/6 ≈ 0.467 tablespoons

2a + 2b = c for b<br> Solve for b

Leokris [45]

2a + 2b = c

Subtract 2a from both sides

2b = -2a + c

Divide both sides by 2

b = -a + (c/2)

Let X be the number of material anomalies occurring in a particular region of an aircraft gas-turbine disk. The article "Methodo

Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

a) $P(X\leq 4)=0.0183+0.0733+ 0.1465+0.1954+0.1954=0.6288$

$P(X< 4)=P(X\leq 3)=0.0183+0.0733+ 0.1465+0.1954=0.4335$

b) $P(4\leq X\leq 8)=0.1954+0.1563+0.1042+0.0595+0.0298=0.5452$

c) $P(X \geq 8) = 1-P(X$

d) $P(4\leq X \leq 6)=0.1954+0.1563+0.1042=0.4559$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X the random variable that represent the number of material anomalies occurring in a particular region of an aircraft gas-turbine disk. We know that $X \sim Poisson(\lambda=4)$

The probability mass function for the random variable is given by:

$f(x)=\frac{e^{-\lambda} \lambda^x}{x!} , x=0,1,2,3,4,...$

And f(x)=0 for other case.

For this distribution the expected value is the same parameter $\lambda$

$E(X)=\mu =\lambda=4$ , $Var(X)=\lambda=2$ , $Sd(X)=2$

a. Compute both P(X≤4) and P(X<4).

$P(X\leq 4)=P(X=0)+P(X=1)+ P(X=2)+P(X=3)+P(X=4)$

Using the pmf we can find the individual probabilities like this:

$P(X=0)=\frac{e^{-4} 4^0}{0!}=e^{-4}=0.0183$

$P(X=1)=\frac{e^{-4} 4^1}{1!}=0.0733$

$P(X=2)=\frac{e^{-4} 4^2}{2!}=0.1465$

$P(X=3)=\frac{e^{-4} 4^3}{3!}=0.1954$

$P(X=4)=\frac{e^{-4} 4^4}{4!}=0.1954$

$P(X\leq 4)=0.0183+0.0733+ 0.1465+0.1954+0.1954=0.9646$

$P(X< 4)=P(X\leq 3)=P(X=0)+P(X=1)+ P(X=2)+P(X=3)$

$P(X< 4)=P(X\leq 3)=0.0183+0.0733+ 0.1465+0.5311=0.7692$

b. Compute P(4≤X≤ 8).

$P(4\leq X\leq 8)=P(X=4)+P(X=5)+ P(X=6)+P(X=7)+P(X=8)$

$P(X=4)=\frac{e^{-4} 4^4}{4!}=0.1954$

$P(X=5)=\frac{e^{-4} 4^5}{5!}=0.1563$

$P(X=6)=\frac{e^{-4} 4^6}{6!}=0.1042$

$P(X=7)=\frac{e^{-4} 4^7}{7!}=0.0595$

$P(X=8)=\frac{e^{-4} 4^8}{8!}=0.0298$

$P(4\leq X\leq 8)=0.1954+0.1563+ 0.1042+0.0595+0.0298=0.5452$

c. Compute P(8≤ X).

$P(X \geq 8) = 1-P(X$

$P(X \geq 8) = 1-P(X$

d. What is the probability that the number of anomalies exceeds its mean value by no more than one standard deviation?

The mean is 4 and the deviation is 2, so we want this probability

$P(4\leq X \leq 6)=P(X=4)+P(X=5)+P(X=6)$

$P(X=4)=\frac{e^{-4} 4^4}{4!}=0.1954$

$P(X=5)=\frac{e^{-4} 4^5}{5!}=0.1563$

$P(X=6)=\frac{e^{-4} 4^6}{6!}=0.1042$

$P(4\leq X \leq 6)=0.1954+0.1563+0.1042=0.4559$

Olin [163]

Answer: The treatments in the study are strength training, flexibility training, aerobics, and jogging.

Step-by-step explanation:

A correct description of a feature of the study is that the treatments in the study are strength training, flexibility training, aerobics, and jogging.

It should be noted that the study has no replication. Also, the experimental units are the 40 members that participated.

Therefore, the correct option is D.
