We have a question on motion with the elements of distance, time taken and speed.
This question in particular is asking us for distance per unit time (in this case, hours).
We are required to find out how much distnace is covered in on hour and our approach will be as follows:
This right here just tells us that 4 hours, Madeline covered 180 miles and since her rate was constant (equal distances in equal times), then she also covered 45 miles in an hour.
Now we plot our number line.
Answer:
9
Step-by-step explanation:
w+13-=16
w · -
+13=16
+13=16
=3
w=9
Answer:
0.1606 = 16.06% probability that the number of births in any given minute is exactly five.
Step-by-step explanation:
In a Poisson distribution, the probability that X represents the number of successes of a random variable is given by the following formula:
In which
x is the number of sucesses
e = 2.71828 is the Euler number
is the mean in the given interval.
In this question:
We only have the mean during an interval, and this is why we use the Poisson distribution.
The mean number of births per minute in a given country in a recent year was about 6.
This means that
Find the probability that the number of births in any given minute is exactly five.
This is P(X = 5). So
0.1606 = 16.06% probability that the number of births in any given minute is exactly five.
