The number of typing errors made by a typist has a Poisson distribution with an average of two errors per page. If more than two

wlad13 [49]

Answer: 0.6767

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Mean = $\lambda=2$ errors per page

Let X be the number of errors in a particular page.

The formula to calculate the Poisson distribution is given by :_

$P(X=x)=\dfrac{e^{-\lambda}\lambda^x}{x!}$

Now, the probability that a randomly selected page does not need to be retyped is given by :-

$P(X\leq2)=P(0)+P(1)+P(2)\\\\=(\dfrac{e^{-2}2^0}{0!}+\dfrac{e^{-2}2^1}{1!}+\dfrac{e^{-2}2^2}{2!})\\\\=0.135335283237+0.270670566473+0.270670566473\\\\=0.676676416183\approx0.6767$

Hence, the required probability :- 0.6767

2(n+5)=-2 <br><br> I need the steps

Eva8 [605]

Answer:

n = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

2 ( n + 5 ) = -2

First, solve the brackets.

2n + 10 = -2

Now take 10 to the right side.

2n + 10 -10 = -2 - 10

2n = -12

Then divide both sides by 2.

$\frac{2n}{2} =\frac{-12}{2}$

And now you'll the value of n.

n = ( -6 )

Answer:

∠ EFG = 83°, ∠ GCE = 97°

Step-by-step explanation:

Since FE and FG are tangents to the circle then

∠ FGC and ∠ FEC are right angles

The sum of the angles in quadrilateral CEFG = 360°

Sum the 4 angles and equate to 360

3x + 11 + 90 + 5x - 23 + 90 = 360, that is

8x + 168 = 360 ( subtract 168 from both sides )

8x = 192 ( divide both sides by 8 )

x = 24

Thus

∠ EFG = 3x + 11 = 3(24) + 11 = 72 + 11 = 83°

∠ GCE = 5x - 23 = 5(24) - 23 = 120 - 23 = 97°
