So if you're solving by substitution, one equation must be in slope intercept form. Ill just go with the first one. 

-4x+y=6
<u>+4x        +4x
</u>y=6+4x

Now substitute the value of y in for the value of y in the second equation:
-5x-(6+4x)=21
-5x-6-4x=21
-9x-6=21
<u>     +6  +6
</u><u>-9x=27
</u>-9    -9

x=-3

Now input that into the first equation:
-4(-3)+y=6
12+y=6
<u>-12    -12</u>
y=-6

The number of lightning strikes in a year at the top of a particular mountain has a poisson distribution with a mean of 3.8. fin
atroni [7]

Let X be the number of lightning strikes in a year at the top of particular mountain.

X follows Poisson distribution with mean μ = 3.8

We have to find here the probability that in randomly selected year the number of lightning strikes is 0

The Poisson probability is given by,

P(X=k) = \frac{e^{-mean} mean^{x}}{x!}

Here we have X=0, mean =3.8

Hence probability that X=0 is given by

P(X=0) = \frac{e^{-3.8} 3.8^{0}}{0!}

P(X=0) = \frac{0.02237 * 1}{1}

P(X=0) = 0.0224

The probability that in a randomly selected year, the number of lightning strikes is 0 is 0.0224
