Answer:The mean number of checks written per​ day = 0.3370

The standard deviation = 0.5805

The variance = 0.3370

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the random variable x represent the number of checks he wrote in one​ day.

Given : The number of checks written in last year = 123

Let the number of days in the year must be 365.

Now, the mean number of checks written per​ day will be  :-

\lambda=\dfrac{123}{365}=0.33698630137\approx0.3370

We know that in Poisson distribution , the variance is equals to the mean value .

\text{Thus , Variance }=\sigma^2= 0.3370

\Rightarrow\ \sigma=\sqrt{0.3370}=0.580517010948\approx0.5805

Thus,  Standard deviation = 0.5805

A dozen is 12 so 12 • 5 = 60
2 ears of corn per person would be 120 not counting you, counting you it would be 122
