Let X be the number of lightning strikes in a year at the top of particular mountain.

X follows Poisson distribution with mean μ = 3.8

We have to find here the probability that in randomly selected year the number of lightning strikes is 0

The Poisson probability is given by,

P(X=k) = \frac{e^{-mean} mean^{x}}{x!}

Here we have X=0, mean =3.8

Hence probability that X=0 is given by

P(X=0) = \frac{e^{-3.8} 3.8^{0}}{0!}

P(X=0) = \frac{0.02237 * 1}{1}

P(X=0) = 0.0224

The probability that in a randomly selected year, the number of lightning strikes is 0 is 0.0224

Calculate the future value of $7,000 earning 6% interest compounded quarterly for 7 years. (Round your answer to two decimal pla
qwelly [4]

Use the compound interest formula.

Let A = the ending amount

Let P = the principal

Let r = the interest rate

Let n = the amount compounded a year

Let t = time

A = P(1 + r/n) ^(n/t)

Substitute your numbers in

A = $7,000(1 + 0.06/4)^(4/7)

Solve for A

A = $7,059.81
