Answer: Unlikely

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The probability of choosing a penny from the 1980s from the bag of pennies without looking=\frac{3}{40}=0.075

We know that the probability of any event lies between 0 and 1.

  • If probability of occurring event is 0 then the event is impossible.
  • If probability of occurring any event is 1 then the event certain.
  • If probability of occurring any event lies between 0.5 and 1 then the event is said to be likely.
  • If probability of occurring any event lies between 0 and 0.5 then the event is said to be unlikely.

Since, 0.075 lieas between 0 and 0.5, therefore the event is said to be unlikely.

Fed [463]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

He will actually need to wait for 12 weeks. And that is because if you look at the multiples of 6 and 4 and you'll notice that 12 is the lowest common multiple between them. So you start counting from 6 and 4 at the same time until you notice the LCM of these two numbers then on which ever you number you settle on is how long he will need to wait.

The number of errors in a textbook follow a poisson distribution with a mean of 0.01 errors per page. what is the probability th
neonofarm [45]
Mean number of errors in each page = 0.01
Mean number of errors in 100 pages = 0.01*100=1

It is possible to use the cumulative distribution function (CMF), but the math is a little more complex, involving the gamma-function.  Tables and software are available for that purpose.

Thus it is easier to evaluate with a calculator for the individual cases of k=0,1,2 and 3.

The Poisson distribution has a PMF (probability mass function) 
P(k):=\frac{\lambda^ke^{-\lambda}}{k!}
with λ = 1
=>
P(0):=\frac{1^0e^{-1}}{0!}=0.3678794
P(1):=\frac{1^1e^{-1}}{1!}=0.3678794
P(2):=\frac{1^2e^{-1}}{2!}=0.1839397
P(3):=\frac{1^3e^{-1}}{3!}=0.0613132
=>
P(k
or
P(k<=3)=0.9810 (to four decimal places)

Please can somebody find the gradient and the coordinates of the y-intercept for the graph:
-Dominant- [34]
The equation is already is slope intercept form where you can easily point out the gradient, or the slope, and the y intercept.
y=mx+b where m is the gradient, and b is the y intercept. 
Since there is no m, the gradient is 1.
The y intercept had x=0 and y=b
b in this case is 6 
the y intercept= (0,6)

Write the equation of the circle in standard form: Center (7,0) R=1
Mice21 [21]

Answer:

(x-7)^2+y^2=1

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

Equation of a circle: (x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2 where the circle is centered at (h,k) and the radius is r

<u>1) Plug in the given center (7,0)</u>

(x-7)^2+(y-0)^2=r^2\\(x-7)^2+y^2=r^2

<u>2) Plug in the radius (1)</u>

(x-7)^2+y^2=1^2\\(x-7)^2+y^2=1

I hope this helps!
