Answer:
11.725%
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that :
True value = 0.904 seconds
Measured time = 1.010 seconds
Experimental error :
(|measured value - True value | / true value) * 100%
(|1.010 - 0.904| ÷ 0.904) * 100%
= 0.106 / 0.904 * 100%
= 0.1172566 * 100%
= 11.725%
Rewrite this symbolically: 6(2/6) = 12/6 = 2 (answer)
An equally good approach would be to cancel the 6's, obtaining 2 (answer)
Answer: 0.3741
Step-by-step explanation:
Poison probability ;
P(x) = [U(^x) e(^-U)] ÷ x!
Where U = mean
Note: e = exponential symbol
Number of checks that year = 171
Number of days in a year = 365
U = 171/365 = 0.468
Average checks per day = 0.4685
Probability that at least one check was written per day is can be calculated by;
P(not 0) = 1 - P(0)
Therefore,
P(x) = [U(^x) e(^-U)] ÷ x!
P(0) = [ 0.4685^0 * e^-0.4685] ÷ 0!
P(0) = [ 1 * 0.6259] ÷ 1
P(0) = 0.6259
Therefore,
P(not 0) = 1 - 0.6259 = 0.3741
