Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
a² - b² = (a+ b)(a - b)
1) (2n-4/2n) ÷ (n^2-4/n)
2) [y^2-36/y^2-49] ÷[ y+6/y-7]
3) [m^2-1/ m^2-m] ÷ [m^2-7m-8/3m ]
Hint : m² - 7m - 8
sum = -7
Product = -8
Factor = (-8), 1
m² - 7m - 8 =m² - 8m + m - 8
= m*(m - 8) + (m-8)
= (m - 8)(m +1)
Answer:
a) P(x=3)=0.089
b) P(x≥3)=0.938
c) 1.5 arrivals
Step-by-step explanation:
Let t be the time (in hours), then random variable X is the number of people arriving for treatment at an emergency room.
The variable X is modeled by a Poisson process with a rate parameter of λ=6.
The probability of exactly k arrivals in a particular hour can be written as:
a) The probability that exactly 3 arrivals occur during a particular hour is:
b) The probability that <em>at least</em> 3 people arrive during a particular hour is:
c) In this case, t=0.25, so we recalculate the parameter as:
The expected value for a Poisson distribution is equal to its parameter λ, so in this case we expect 1.5 arrivals in a period of 15 minutes.
