s per hour is 18, then what is the probability it will receive between 15 and 20 messages during any given hour?

Answer:

0.36427

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean = λ = 18 messages per hour

P(X = x) = (e^-λ)(λ⁻ˣ)/x!

P(X ≤ x) = Σ (e^-λ)(λ⁻ˣ)/x! (Summation From 0 to x)

But the probability required is that the messages thay come in an hour is between 15 and 20, that is, P(15 < X < 20)

P(15 < X < 20) = P(X < 20) - P(X ≤ 15)

These probabilities will be evaluated using a cumulative frequency calculator.

P(X < 20) = 0.65092

P(X ≤ 15) = poissoncdf(18, 15) = 0.28665

P(15 < X < 20) = P(X < 20) - P(X ≤ 15) = 0.65092 - 0.28665 = 0.36427.

Answer: 15n³-105n²+2n+16/6n²-42n

Step-by-step explanation:

n+8/3n²-21n +5n/2

2(n+8)+5n(3n²-21n)/2(3n²-21n)

2n+16+15n³-105n²/6n²-42n

15n³-105n²+2n+16/6n²-42n

Katie is twice as old as her sister Mara. The sum of their ages is 24. Find their ages.
Alenkasestr [34]
So k=katie's' age
m=mara's age

k is 2 times as old as m
k=2m

sum is 24
add means sum
k+m=24

so we have
k+m=24 and
k=2m
subsitute
2m+m=24
add
3m=24
divide both sides by 3
m=8
subsitute again
k=2m
k=2(8)
k=16

katie=16
mara=8
