1 answer:
Answer:
700 lbs and 3.742
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that raw materials are studied for contamination. Suppose that the number of particles of contamination per pound of material is a Poisson random variable with a mean of 0.02 particle per pound.
a) To get 14 particles of contamination we must have
expected number of pounds =
b) Since for 700 pounds particles expected are 14 we can say in a Poisson distribution mean and variance are equal
i.e. Var (700 lbs to obtain 14 particles of contamination ) = 14
Std deviation =

The 4 functions are:
Let's keep in mind that for large values of x, a quadratic function grows faster than a linear function:
for large values of x
In this problem, we can see that the only quadratic function is
, while all the others are linear functions, so the function that grows faster for large values of x is
