Answer:

4 necklaces

Step-by-step explanation:

This questions test our knowledge of highest common factor.

-We find the value that goes into 148 and 36 at the same time:

148=2\times 2\times37\\\\36=2\times2\times 3\times 3\\\\\therefore HCF=2\times 2=2^2=4

Since the HCF is 4, the greatest number of necklaces he can make is 4

Bumek [7]

Answer:

0.381 is the probability that the number of drivers will be at most 18.                          

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

The number of drivers who travel between a particular origin and destination during a designated time period has a Poisson distribution with parameter μ = 20.

  • The Poisson distribution is the discrete probability distribution of the number of events occurring in a given time period, given the average number of times the event occurs over that time period.
  • The variance of Poisson distribution is equal to the mean of Poisson distribution.

a) P(number of drivers will be at most 18)

Formula:

P(X =k) = \displaystyle\frac{\mu^k e^{-\mu}}{k!}\\\\ \mu \text{ is the mean of the distribution}

P( x \leq 18) =P(x=0) + P(x =1) + P(x = 2) + ... + P(x = 18)\\\\= \displaystyle\frac{20^0 e^{-20}}{0!} + \displaystyle\frac{20^1 e^{-20}}{1!} +...+ \displaystyle\frac{20^{18} e^{-20}}{18!}\\\\ = 0.381

Thus, 0.381 is the probability that the number of drivers will be at most 18.
