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.

Solving for x<br><br> r + 11 + 8r = 29
NikAS [45]

Answer:

r=2

Step-by-step explanation:

r + 11 + 8r = 29

add the like terms

r+8r+11=29

9r+11=29

then subtract 11 on both sides to eltimate 11

9r=18

lastly divide 9 on both sides

r=2
