Mean number of errors in each page = 0.01
Mean number of errors in 100 pages = 0.01*100=1
It is possible to use the cumulative distribution function (CMF), but the math is a little more complex, involving the gamma-function. Tables and software are available for that purpose.
Thus it is easier to evaluate with a calculator for the individual cases of k=0,1,2 and 3.
The Poisson distribution has a PMF (probability mass function)


with λ = 1
=>

or
P(k<=3)=
0.9810 (to four decimal places)
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
20
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's start by rewriting the second equation in terms of "x":

Subtract y from both sides:

Now, substitute "5-y" for "x" in the first equation:

Note that:


Cancel out like terms:

Subtract 25 from both sides:

Divide both sides by -10

Now, substitute this value back into either of the equations to solve for x.

Add 15/2 to both sides:

Now, find the difference:
