Answer: 0.1008188

Step-by-step explanation:

The question will usng the poisson distribution formula:

Given :

Mean(λ) number of occurrence in a given interval = 3

P(X=x) = Probability of exactly x occurrence in a given interval

Number of desired occurence(x) = 5

P(X=x) = [(λ^x) * (e^-λ)] / x!

Where ; e = base of natural logarithm = 2.7182818

P(X=5) = [(3^5) * (e^-3)] / 5!

P(X=5) = [(243) * (0.0497870)] / 120

P(X=5) = [12.098257] / 120

P(X=5) = 0.1008188

What mathematical relationship between variables is suggested by a graph showing a diagonal line from the lower left to the uppe
monitta

you can see the distance between the intervals in the graph more easily because you can see how far the plots are away from each other by connecting the w/ lines. Ex you had 5 on a graph and you had 12 after it there is an interval of 8 in between so you can visually see how far apart the numbers area simple 2d xy line graph has only the possibility for 2 different variables (x and y).. for a 3 variable graph you would have to go into a 3d xyz graph with each variable as x, y and z. it is possible to fit a line to this but for an easier analysis it is better to analyse the variables in pairs. Hope this helps.

Find the difference of 1/2 - 3/11
TEA [102]
1/2 - 3/11

Set both denominators (bottom numbers) to 22, so multiply the numerator of 1/2 by 11, and multiply the numerator of 3/11 by 2.

1/2 is now 11/22

3/11 is now 6/22

So, our new question is now : 11/22 - 6/22

Because the denominators are the same, all you have to do is simplify the top numbers.

So, 11-6 = 5

Therefore, your answer is 5/22

~Hope I helped!~
