Answer:
(a) The probability of the event (<em>X</em> > 84) is 0.007.
(b) The probability of the event (<em>X</em> < 64) is 0.483.
Step-by-step explanation:
The random variable <em>X</em> follows a Poisson distribution with parameter <em>λ</em> = 64.
The probability mass function of a Poisson distribution is:

(a)
Compute the probability of the event (<em>X</em> > 84) as follows:
P (X > 84) = 1 - P (X ≤ 84)
![=1-\sum _{x=0}^{x=84}\frac{e^{-64}(64)^{x}}{x!}\\=1-[e^{-64}\sum _{x=0}^{x=84}\frac{(64)^{x}}{x!}]\\=1-[e^{-64}[\frac{(64)^{0}}{0!}+\frac{(64)^{1}}{1!}+\frac{(64)^{2}}{2!}+...+\frac{(64)^{84}}{84!}]]\\=1-0.99308\\=0.00692\\\approx0.007](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%3D1-%5Csum%20_%7Bx%3D0%7D%5E%7Bx%3D84%7D%5Cfrac%7Be%5E%7B-64%7D%2864%29%5E%7Bx%7D%7D%7Bx%21%7D%5C%5C%3D1-%5Be%5E%7B-64%7D%5Csum%20_%7Bx%3D0%7D%5E%7Bx%3D84%7D%5Cfrac%7B%2864%29%5E%7Bx%7D%7D%7Bx%21%7D%5D%5C%5C%3D1-%5Be%5E%7B-64%7D%5B%5Cfrac%7B%2864%29%5E%7B0%7D%7D%7B0%21%7D%2B%5Cfrac%7B%2864%29%5E%7B1%7D%7D%7B1%21%7D%2B%5Cfrac%7B%2864%29%5E%7B2%7D%7D%7B2%21%7D%2B...%2B%5Cfrac%7B%2864%29%5E%7B84%7D%7D%7B84%21%7D%5D%5D%5C%5C%3D1-0.99308%5C%5C%3D0.00692%5C%5C%5Capprox0.007)
Thus, the probability of the event (<em>X</em> > 84) is 0.007.
(b)
Compute the probability of the event (<em>X</em> < 64) as follows:
P (X < 64) = P (X = 0) + P (X = 1) + P (X = 2) + ... + P (X = 63)
![=\sum _{x=0}^{x=63}\frac{e^{-64}(64)^{x}}{x!}\\=e^{-64}\sum _{x=0}^{x=63}\frac{(64)^{x}}{x!}\\=e^{-64}[\frac{(64)^{0}}{0!}+\frac{(64)^{1}}{1!}+\frac{(64)^{2}}{2!}+...+\frac{(64)^{63}}{63!}]\\=0.48338\\\approx0.483](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%3D%5Csum%20_%7Bx%3D0%7D%5E%7Bx%3D63%7D%5Cfrac%7Be%5E%7B-64%7D%2864%29%5E%7Bx%7D%7D%7Bx%21%7D%5C%5C%3De%5E%7B-64%7D%5Csum%20_%7Bx%3D0%7D%5E%7Bx%3D63%7D%5Cfrac%7B%2864%29%5E%7Bx%7D%7D%7Bx%21%7D%5C%5C%3De%5E%7B-64%7D%5B%5Cfrac%7B%2864%29%5E%7B0%7D%7D%7B0%21%7D%2B%5Cfrac%7B%2864%29%5E%7B1%7D%7D%7B1%21%7D%2B%5Cfrac%7B%2864%29%5E%7B2%7D%7D%7B2%21%7D%2B...%2B%5Cfrac%7B%2864%29%5E%7B63%7D%7D%7B63%21%7D%5D%5C%5C%3D0.48338%5C%5C%5Capprox0.483)
Thus, the probability of the event (<em>X</em> < 64) is 0.483.
Answer:
y = 5/4x-15
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope intercept form of a line is
y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept
y = 5/4x+b
Substitute the point into the equation and solve for b
-5 = 5/4(8)+b
-5 = 10+b
Subtract 10 from each side
-5-10 = b
-15 = b
y = 5/4x-15
Answer:
20
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the value of a given exterior angle of a regular polygon, simply divide 360 by the number of sides or angles that the polygon has. For example, an eight-sided regular polygon, an octagon, has exterior angles that are 45 degrees each, because 360/8 = 45.
If each interior angle is 8 times the degree measure of each exterior angle how many sides does the polygon have. Now 8+1 = 9. Divide 180 by 9 to get 20.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
We can solve this multiplication of polynomials by understanding how to multiply these large terms.
To multiply two polynomials together, we must multiply each term by each term in the other polynomial. Each term should be multiplied by another one until it's multiplied by all of the terms in the other expression.
- <em>We can do this by focusing on one term in the first polynomial and multiplying it by </em><em>all the terms</em><em> in the second polynomial. We'd then repeat this for the remaining terms in the second polynomial.</em>
Let's first start by multiplying the first term of the first polynomial,
, by all of the terms in the second polynomial. (
)
Now, we can add up all these expressions to get the first part of our polynomial. Ordering by exponent, our expression is now
Now let's do the same with the second term (
) and the third term (
).
- Adding on to our original expression:
- Adding on to our original expression:
Phew, that's one big polynomial! We can simplify it by combining like terms. We can combine terms that share the same exponent and combine them via their coefficients.
This simplifies our expression down to
.
