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

natima [27]

Answer:

The constant of proportionality is 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

In an equation for which we are looking for the constant of proportionality, we use the base form below.

y = kx

In which k is the constant of proportionality. If we use the equation given

y = 2x

We can see k = 2

Answer:

  $503.85

Step-by-step explanation:

The amortization formula can help with this.

  A = P(r/12)/(1 -(1 +r/12)^(-n))

where P is the loan value, A is the monthly payment, r is the annual interest rate, and n is the number of monthly payments.

We want to find P. All of the other values are given.

  P = A(1 -(1 +r/12)^-n)/(r/12)

  P = 32.48(1 -1.012667^-18)/(0.012667) = 31.48·16.0054

  P ≈ 503.85

The equivalent cash price is about $503.85.
