Question:

In applying the Poisson probability distribution​ formula, ​P(x) equals  μx•e−μx!

Briefly describe what the symbol mu represents. Choose the correct answer below.A.The symbol mu is a variable that represents the area of each region.B.The symbol mu is a variable that represents the number of occurrences of the event in an interval.C.The symbol mu is a variable that represents the number of occurrences of the event.D.The symbol mu represents a static value.E.The symbol mu is a variable that represents the mean number of occurrences of the event in the intervals.

Answer:

μ is a variable that represents the mean number of occurrences of the event in the intervals.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Poisson distribution is often used to model the number of occurrences of an event in a certain interval.

P(x, μ)

Where the symbol mu (μ) represents the mean number of occurrences of an event x in a specified interval and the variable x represents a static value.

Therefore, the correct answer is option E, μ is a variable that represents the mean number of occurrences of the event in the intervals.

Suppose the expected returns on equity of two firms, Macrosoft and Microsoft, that operate in the same business are 10.50% and 1
Komok [63]

Answer:

The return on assets in this business for Macrosoft is

ROA = 10.50%

Step-by-step explanation:

Return on Equity:

ROE represents how much a firm is generating profits by using the shareholder's money.

ROE is calculated as

$ {ROE = \frac{Annual \:\: net\: \: income}{Average \:\: shareholder's \:\: equity} $​  ​

Return on Assets:

ROA represents how much a firm is generating profits for every dollar of its assets.

ROA is calculated as

$ {ROA = \frac{Annual \:\: net\: \: income}{Total \:\: assests} $​  ​ ​

What is the return on assets in this business if Macrosoft has no debt?

Debt plays an important role in the calculations of return on assets.

We know that

Assets = Liabilities + Equity

Since the Macrosoft has no debt, its return on assets will be same as return on equity.

Assets = Equity

ROA = ROE

ROA = 10.50%

A bulletin board is 3 ft high. the area is 15 sq ft. what is the perimeter?
Ipatiy [6.2K]
First step: Find how wide the bulletin board is
     15 ft² ÷ 3 ft = 5 ft
Step the second: Use the perimeter formula P = 2l + 2w
     P = 2(5) + 2(3)
     <u>P = 16 ft</u>

If A(-5,7), B(-4,-5), C(-1,-6) and D(4,5) are the vertices of a quadrilateral, find the area of the quadrilateral ABCD.
MrMuchimi
After plotting the quadrilateral in a Cartesian plane, you can see that it is not a particular quadrilateral. Hence, you need to divide it into two triangles. Let's take ABC and ADC.

The area of a triangle with vertices known is  given by the matrix
M = \left[\begin{array}{ccc} x_{1}&y_{1}&1\\x_{2}&y_{2}&1\\x_{3}&y_{3}&1\end{array}\right]

Area = 1/2· | det(M) |
        = 1/2· | x₁·y₂ - x₂·y₁ + x₂·y₃ - x₃·y₂ + x₃·y₁ - x₁·y₃ |
        = 1/2· | x₁·(y₂ - y₃) + x₂·(y₃ - y₁) + x₃·(y₁ - y₂) |

Therefore, the area of ABC will be:
A(ABC) = 1/2· | (-5)·(-5 - (-6)) + (-4)·(-6 - 7) + (-1)·(7 - (-5)) |
             = 1/2· | -5·(1) - 4·(-13) - 1·(12) |
             = 1/2 | 35 |
             = 35/2

Similarly, the area of ADC will be:
A(ABC) = 1/2· | (-5)·(5 - (-6)) + (4)·(-6 - 7) + (-1)·(7 - 5) |
             = 1/2· | -5·(11) + 4·(-13) - 1·(2) |
             = 1/2 | -109 |
<span>             = 109/2</span>

The total area of the quadrilateral will be the sum of the areas of the two triangles:

A(ABCD) = A(ABC) + A(ADC) 
               = 35/2 + 109/2
               = 72

Arturiano [62]
This is a guess using logic, but my answer for this is that she concluded that she walked faster in the first 15 minutes. An increase in speed would increase the distance she walked in that amount of time
