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)

Since AS is a height issued from A and the perpendicular bisector of [MP] at the same time (given), so the triangle AMP is an isosceles triangle of vertex A. Then, AM=AP
MS=SP ( AS bisects MP as stated in the given )
AS is a common side between triangles ASM and ASP
Therefore, triangles ASM and ASP are congruent (SSS)

Write an equation of the line, in slope intercept form.
DedPeter [7]

Answer:

y = -3x + 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-intercept form:

y = mx + b

m (slope) = \frac{-6}{2} or -3

b (y-intercept, or where the line crosses the y-axis) = 6

y = -3x + 6
