Division of one fraction by another is the same as multiplication by that fraction's reciprocal. That idea can be played back in reverse for this problem, and we can rewrite the expression

\frac{8}{10}\times(- \frac{3}{4})

in terms of <em>division </em>by reciprocal of - \frac{3}{4}, - \frac{4}{3}, giving us

\frac{8}{10} \div\big(- \frac{4}{3} \big)

or, reducing \frac{8}{10},

\frac{4}{5}\div\big(- \frac{4}{3} \big)

So multiplying by a fraction a/b is the same as dividing by the fraction b/a (it's just the original fraction flipped upside down)

so 8/10  *  -3/4 is the same as   8/10   /    4/-3

During summer weekdays, boats arrive at the inlet drawbridge according to Poisson distribution at a rate of 3 per hour. In a 2-h
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

The probability that no boats arrive is 2.48\times 10^{-3}.

Step-by-step explanation:

Poisson distribution:

Poisson distribution is a statistical distribution that helps to find out the probability of a certain is likely occur a specified period of time.

P(X=x)=\frac{e^{-\lambda t}(\lambda t)^x}{x!}

\lambda = rate.

Given that, Poisson distribution at a rate of 3 per hour.

\lambda = 3

t=2

x=0

The probability that no boats arrive is

P(X=0)=\frac{e^{-2\times 3}(2\times 3)^0}{0!}

                =2.48\times 10^{-3}

mezya [45]
So,

5y*3 is the open phrase the student uses to model "the sum of 5y and 3".

"The sum of" means addition.  The student put 5y*3, while the sum of 5y and 3 is actually 5y + 3.
