Answer:
Ratio of sweaters to dresses = 8 : 5
Sum of ratios = 13
Let number of sweater + dresses = x
Answer:
a. P(x = 0 | λ = 1.2) = 0.301
b. P(x ≥ 8 | λ = 1.2) = 0.000
c. P(x > 5 | λ = 1.2) = 0.002
Step-by-step explanation:
If the number of defects per carton is Poisson distributed, with parameter 1.2 pens/carton, we can model the probability of k defects as:
a. What is the probability of selecting a carton and finding no defective pens?
This happens for k=0, so the probability is:
b. What is the probability of finding eight or more defective pens in a carton?
This can be calculated as one minus the probablity of having 7 or less defective pens.
c. Suppose a purchaser of these pens will quit buying from the company if a carton contains more than five defective pens. What is the probability that a carton contains more than five defective pens?
We can calculate this as we did the previous question, but for k=5.
Answer:
It took Markus half an hour to drive home from work. He averaged 34 miles per hour. How far does Markus live from his work?
Solution
We are given that it takes 1/2 an hour for the trip. This is a time:
t = 1/2
We are given that he averages 34 miles per hour. This is a rate:
r = 34
We are asked how few he has traveled. This is a distance. We use the d=rt equation:
d = rt
= (34)(1/2)
= 17
Markus lives 17 miles from work.

Exercise 1
The current along the beach is moving towards the south at 1.5 miles per hour. If a piece of debris is placed into the water, how far will the current take it in 6 hours?
Step-by-step explanation:
Step-by-step explanation:
To find a solution to this inequality, we need to get to one side of the equation by itself. Since we have on the left-hand side of the equation, we can get
There is no graph but if I had to guess then I would go with answer choice C
Hope this helps!
