Answer:
Mean = 2.7
In a group of 74090 we would expect about 3 (rounding to nearest whole number) children with the rare form of cancer.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that the rate of cancer in children is 37 children in 1 million. So the probability of cancer in a child is P(C) = 0.000037
Poisson distribution is used to approximate the number of cases of diseases and we have to find what will be the mean number of cases for 74,090.
In simple words we have to find the expected number of children with cancer in a group of 74,090 children.
The mean value of expected value can be obtained by multiplying the probability with the sample size. So, in this case multiplying probability of child having a cancer with total group size will give us the expected or mean number of children in the group with cancer.
Mean = E(x) = P(C) * Group size
Mean = 0.000037 x 74090
Mean = 2.7
This means in a group of 74090 we would expect about 3 (rounding to nearest whole number) children with the rare form of cancer.

The partial fraction expansion takes the form
-6<em>x</em>/((<em>x</em> + 2) (<em>x</em> + 8)) = <em>a</em>/(<em>x</em> + 2) + <em>b</em>/(<em>x</em> + 8)
Both factors in the denominator are linear, so the numerators in the corresponding partial fractions have degree 1 - 1 = 0 and are thus constants.
Combine the fractions on the right side into one with a common denominator, then set the numerators on both sides of the equation equal to each other:
-6<em>x</em> = <em>a</em> (<em>x</em> + 8) + <em>b</em> (<em>x</em> + 2)
Expand the right side and collect terms by powers of <em>x</em> :
-6<em>x</em> = (<em>a</em> + <em>b</em>) <em>x</em> + (8<em>a</em> + 2<em>b</em>)
It follows that
<em>a</em> + <em>b</em> = -6 and 8<em>a</em> + 2<em>b</em> = 0
==> <em>a</em> = -2 and <em>b</em> = 8
So we end up with
-6<em>x</em>/((<em>x</em> + 2) (<em>x</em> + 8)) = -2/(<em>x</em> + 2) + 8/(<em>x</em> + 8)

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the basic simple interest formula:
P * r * t = I and put the info into a table with those variables along the top, formig the columns we need:
P * r * t = I
Acct 1
Acct 2
If we have a total of 1500 to split up between 2 accounts, we put x amount of money into one and then have 1500-x left to put into the other. We will fill those in along with the interest rates in decimal form and the time of 1 year:
P * r * t = I
Acct 1 x .04 1
Acct 2 1500-x .05 1
Looking at the formula we are told that Prt = I, so we will multiply P times r times t and fill in the I column:
P * r * t - I
Acct 1 x .04 1 .04x
Acct 2 1500-x .05 1 .05(1500-x)
The total Interest earned by the addition of the interest earned from both accounts is 69.50. So we add the interest column together and set it equal to 69.50:
.04x + .05(1500 - x) = 69.50 and
.04x + 75 - .05x = 69.50 and
-.01x = -5.5 so
x = 550
That's how much money is in the account earning 4% interest.
