Answer:
The probability that the instrument does not fail in an 8-hour shift is 
The probability of at least 1 failure in a 24-hour day is 
Step-by-step explanation:
The probability distribution of a Poisson random variable X representing the number of successes occurring in a given time interval or a specified region of space is given by the formula:

Let X be the number of failures of a testing instrument.
We know that the mean
failures per hour.
(a) To find the probability that the instrument does not fail in an 8-hour shift, you need to:
For an 8-hour shift, the mean is 

(b) To find the probability of at least 1 failure in a 24-hour day, you need to:
For a 24-hour day, the mean is 

Answer:
The solution for y is y = 2x + 1
Step-by-step explanation:
* <em>Lets explain how to solve an equation for one of the variables</em>
- We need to solve the equation 16x + 9 = 9y - 2 x for y
- That means we want to find y in terms of x and the numerical term
- the equation has two sides, one side contains x and numerical term
and the other side contains y and x
- We need to separate y in one side, and other term in the other side
* <em>Lets do that</em>
∵ 16x + 9 = 9y - 2x
- Add 2x to both sides to cancel -2x from the right side
∴ 16x + 2x + 9 = 9y - 2x + 2x
- Add like terms in each side
∴ 18x + 9 = 9y
- Divide each term by the coefficient of y ⇒ (÷9)
∴ (18 ÷ 9)x + (9 ÷ 9) = (9 ÷ 9)y
∴ 2x + 1 = y
- Switch the two sides
∴ y = 2x + 1
* The solution for y is y = 2x + 1
Answer:
The location of Bern is (2,-3)
Step-by-step explanation:
Hope this helps!
That's addition of mixed numbers. Convert 3/7 and 5/9 to fractions with the denominator (7)(9) = 63 (this is the LCD):
10 27/63 + 19 35/63
This comes out to 29 62/63.
The distance between the two is 70
