Answer:

the weight of wheat flour  Pasha used in the test batch is 3/4 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the given statement:

Pasha designed a recipe for crackers that are 60% wheat flour by weight

60% = 60/100 = 0.6 = 6/10

He made a test batch of the crackers from 1 1/4 total pounds of ingredients.

First of all change the whole fraction which is 1 1/4 into improper fraction.

1 1/4 = 5/4

Now multiply 6/10 with 5/4 to get the weight of wheat flour Pasha used in the test batch.

= 6/10 * 5/4

6 and 4 will be cancelled out by table of 2.

= 3/10 * 5/2

Now we can cancel out 5 and 10 by the table of 5.

3/2 * 1/2

Now multiply both the terms:

3/4 pounds

Thus the weight of wheat flour  Pasha used in the test batch is 3/4 pounds ....

Rabies is an often-fatal disease typically transmitted through the bite of an infected animal. The state of Florida has been rec
slega [8]

Answer:

a) 3.6

b) 1.897

c)0.0273

d) 0.9727

Step-by-step explanation:

Rabies has a rare occurrence and we can assume that events are independent. So, X the count of rabies cases reported in a given week is a Poisson random variable with μ=3.6.

a)

The mean of a Poisson random variable X is μ.

mean=E(X)=μ=3.6.

b)

The  standard deviation of a Poisson random variable X is √μ.

standard deviation=S.D(X)=√μ=√3.6=1.897.

c)

The probability for Poisson random variable X can be calculated as

P(X=x)=(e^-μ)(μ^x)/x!

where x=0,1,2,3,...

So,

P(no case of rabies)=P(X=0)=e^-3.6(3.6^0)/0!

P(no case of rabies)=P(X=0)=0.0273.

d)

P(at least one case of rabies)=P(X≥1)=1-P(X<1)=1-P(X=0)

P(at least one case of rabies)=1-0.0273=0.9727
