Answer:
0.61596
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
λ = 5 (5 errors per page)
Poisson distribution formula :
P(x = x) = (λ^x * e^-λ) / x!
Probability that page does not need to be retyped means that error on page is less than or equal to 5
P(x ≤ 5) = p(x = 5) + p(x = 4) +... + p(x = 0)
The individual probabilities can be obtained using the formula above or the use of a calculator
P(x ≤ 5) = 0.17547 + 0.17547 + 0.14037 + 0.08422 + 0.03369 + 0.00674
P(x ≤ 5) = 0.61596
Answer: 4/9
Step-by-step explanation:
apply product rule to 2/3 2^2 / 3^2
There are 120 different combinations.
There are 5 to use for the first bead; then after it is used, 4 for the second; 3 for the third; 2 for the fourth; and 1 for the fifth and last bead:
5*4*3*2*1 = 120.
