xample.
1 answer:
Answer:
1. Statistics
2. Sample
3. Population
4. Variable
5. Data
6. Parameter
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Statistics is the mean of the sample taken - The average speed that the 250 randomly selected drivers drove on Highway 50
2. Sample is the representative part of the population - The 250 randomly selected drivers who were on Highway 50
3. Population is the group of people from which the sample was taken - All people who drive on Highway 50
4. Variable is a quantity that has values which differ - The speed that a driver drives on Highway
5. Data is information obtained used for a specific purpose - The list of the 250 speeds that the drivers studied drove
6. Parameter is the mean of a population - The average speed that all drivers go on Highway 50

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
In a Poisson distribution, the probability that X represents the number of successes of a random variable is given by the following formula:
In which
x is the number of sucesses
e = 2.71828 is the Euler number
is the mean in the given interval.
In the Poisson distribution, the mean is the same as the variance.
P(X = 0) = 0.09
So
We apply ln to both sides, which is the inverse operation of the exponential.
So
Multiplying by -1
So
