Answer:

P (3 or fewer) =0.2650

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean = x` = 5

The Poisson distribution formula  is given by

P(X) = e-ˣ` x`ˣ/ x!

The mean is 5 and the X takes the values 0,1,2,and 3 which means 3 or fewer, so we add the probability of all the values of X to get the desired Value of X.

P(3 or fewer ) = e-⁵ (5)³/3!+  e-⁵ (5)²/2! +e-⁵ (5)/1!+e-⁵ (5)⁰/0!

Putting the Values

P (3 or fewer) = 0.006737 . 125 / 6 + 0.006737 . 25 / 2 +0.006737 . 5 / 1 + 0.006737 . 1 / 1

P (3 or fewer) = 0.140374 + 0.08422+ 0.03369 +0.006737

P (3 or fewer) =0.2650

I honestly don’t know. But the square in the bottom of the triangles indicate that it is a right triangle equaling 90 degrees. You can try using that along with other knowledge of right triangles you have. Could you possibly use Pythagorean theorem also?

Answer:

B. -\frac{7}{10} = -.7

Step-by-step explanation:

Replace all occurrences of  −  −  with a single  +. Two consecutive minus signs have the same mathematical meaning

-.75+\frac{2}{5}+.4-\frac{3}{4}

Find the common denominator.

\frac{-.75*20}{20} +\frac{2*4}{20} +\frac{.4*20}{20}-\frac{3*5}{20}

Simplify terms.

\frac{-15+8+8-15}{20}

Simplify the numerator.

\frac{-14}{20}

Reduce the expression by cancelling the common factors.

-\frac{7}{10}

<em>hope this helps, good luck :)</em>
