Answer:

1.3125

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that our random variable X follows a Poisson distributionP(X=k)=\frac{\lambda^k e^-^p}{k!} \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ p=\lambda

Evaluate the formula at k=2,3:

P(X=2)=0.5\lambda^2e^{-\lambda}\\\\P(X=3)=\frac{1}{6}\lambda^2e^{-\lambda}

#since

4P(X=2)=P(X=3);\\\\0.5\lambda^2e^{-\lambda}=4\times\frac{1}{6}\lambda^3e^{-\lambda}\\\\0.5\lambda^2=\frac{2}{3}\lambda^3\\\\0.75=\lambda

The mean and variance of the Poisson distributed random variable is equal to \lambda:

\mu=\lambda=0.75\\\sigma ^2=\lambda=0.75

#By property variance:

\sigma ^2=V(X)=E(X^2)-(E(X))^2=E(X^2)\\\\E(X^2)=\sigma^2+\mu^2=0.75+0.75^2=1.3125

The expectation is 1.3125

Answer is C).

One way to find the answer is to multiply the $54 by .30 (which is 30%converted to a decimal). Doing this will give you what 30% of $54 is.
This gives you 16.2
Since the question is asking what 30% off the price is, subtract the 16.2 from the $54.

Answer:

7,8,9

Step-by-step explanation:

192/8=24

X+(x+1)+(x+2)=24

3x+3=24

10/7p+13/8+15/2p=909/56 i NEED THiS solving multi step equations w fractions and #8 PLEASE
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

P= 2

Step-by-step explanation:

10/7p+13/8+15/2p=-909/56

Combine like terms

10/7p+15/2p=-909/56-13/8

20p+105p/14=-909-13*7/56

125/14p=-909-91/56

125/14p= -1000/56

125/14p*14/125= -1000/56*14/125

simplify

P= 8/4=2

And for #8 n =1 I answered this question it
