Answer:

0.827

Step-by-step explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Probability of breakdown, p = once in 3 weeks i.e \frac{1}{3}

number of weeks n = 21

now,

mean, λ = np

=  \frac{1}{3}\times21

= 7

P(X > 4) = 1 - ( P(X ≤ 4))

using Poisson distribution

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

Thus,

P(X = 0) = \frac{e^{-7}7^0}{0!}

= 0.00091

P(X = 1) = \frac{e^{-7}7^1}{1!}

= 0.00638

P(X = 2) = \frac{e^{-7}7^2}{2!}

= 0.02234

P(X = 3) = \frac{e^{-7}7^3}{3!}

= 0.05213

P(X = 4) = \frac{e^{-7}7^4}{4!}

= 0.09123

Thus,

P(X ≤ 4) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4)

= 0.00091 + 0.00638 + 0.02234 + 0.05213 + 0.09123

= 0.17299

Therefore,

P(X > 4) = 1 - 0.17299

= 0.827

nordsb [41]

Answer:

126

Step-by-step explanation:

A line is 180 degrees. I found the degree of the angles in-between 126 and M by subtracting 126 from 180. This means that M is also 126. (Plus the intersecting lines are parallel)

Please help meeeeeee!!!!!
Tasya [4]

Answer: A

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because 25%= 25/100, and that reduces to 1/4. Also, whenever it says something OF something, it means to multiply. In this case, 1/4 OF 1000= 1/4x1000= 250.

*Even though it seems that multiplying will just make the number bigger, when you multiply with a fraction, it actually gets smaller* For example 1/3 of 3= 1/3x3= 1
