The sale price of the coats is 160% of the purchase price of the coats.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

The owner buys the coats at a purchase price= $60

He sells the coats for a selling price= $96

Now, the question is:

The selling price $96 is what percentage of the purchase price $60

<u>step 1</u>: 96= x% of 60

<u>step 2</u>: 96= (x/100)*60

<u>step 3</u>: 96= 6x/10

<u>step 4</u>: 960/6 = x

<u>step 5</u>: x = 160%

A Geiger counter counts the number of alpha particles from radioactive material. Over a long period of time, an average of 14 pa
UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

0.2081 = 20.81% probability that at least one particle arrives in a particular one second period.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a Poisson distribution, the probability that X represents the number of successes of a random variable is given by the following formula:

P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}

In which

x is the number of sucesses

e = 2.71828 is the Euler number

\mu is the mean in the given interval.

Over a long period of time, an average of 14 particles per minute occurs. Assume the arrival of particles at the counter follows a Poisson distribution. Find the probability that at least one particle arrives in a particular one second period.

Each minute has 60 seconds, so \mu = \frac{14}{60} = 0.2333

Either no particle arrives, or at least one does. The sum of the probabilities of these events is decimal 1. So

P(X = 0) + P(X \geq 1) = 1

We want P(X \geq 1). So

P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0)

In which

P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}

P(X = 0) = \frac{e^{-0.2333}*(0.2333)^{0}}{(0)!} = 0.7919

P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0) = 1 - 0.7919 = 0.2081

0.2081 = 20.81% probability that at least one particle arrives in a particular one second period.
