An apartment complex rents an average of 2.3 new units per week. If the number of apartment rented each week Poisson distributed

masya89 [10]

Answer:

$P(X\leq 1) = 0.331$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Poisson Distribution;

Average rent in a week = 2.3

Required

Determine the probability of renting no more than 1 apartment

A Poisson distribution is given as;

$P(X = x) = \frac{y^xe^{-y}}{x!}$

Where y represents λ (average)

y = 2.3

<em>Probability of renting no more than 1 apartment = Probability of renting no apartment + Probability of renting 1 apartment</em>

<em />

Using probability notations;

$P(X\leq 1) = P(X=0) + P(X =1)$

Solving for P(X = 0) [substitute 0 for x and 2.3 for y]

$P(X = 0) = \frac{2.3^0 * e^{-2.3}}{0!}$

$P(X = 0) = \frac{1 * e^{-2.3}}{1}$

$P(X = 0) = e^{-2.3}$

$P(X = 0) = 0.10025884372$

Solving for P(X = 1) [substitute 1 for x and 2.3 for y]

$P(X = 1) = \frac{2.3^1 * e^{-2.3}}{1!}$

$P(X = 1) = \frac{2.3 * e^{-2.3}}{1}$

$P(X = 1) =2.3 * e^{-2.3}$

$P(X = 1) = 2.3 * 0.10025884372$

$P(X = 1) = 0.23059534055$

$P(X\leq 1) = P(X=0) + P(X =1)$

$P(X\leq 1) = 0.10025884372 + 0.23059534055$

$P(X\leq 1) = 0.33085418427$

$P(X\leq 1) = 0.331$

Hence, the required probability is 0.331

When a number x is multiplied by 4, the result is 2/5. What is t he value of x

PIT_PIT [208]

The equation:

$x\cdot4=\dfrac{2}{5}\ \ \ \ |\text{divide both sides by 4}\\\\x=\dfrac{2}{5}:4\\\\x=\dfrac{2}{5}\cdot\dfrac{1}{4}\\\\x=\dfrac{1}{5}\cdot\dfrac{1}{2}\\\\\boxed{x=\dfrac{1}{10}}$
