According to the image, HKJ and FGH are similar, we can apply the theorem of thales
since GK and GF are parallels, so

HK / HF = HJ / HG = KJ / GF and as we see on the figure, HK = HF /2, this implies 2HK =HF

HK / 2HK = KJ / GF it is equivalent to 1/2 = 2y+5 / 5y +3

likewise, equivalent to 5y +3 = 4y +10, 5y-4y = 10-3, and y = 7

so the answer is 7

Maslowich

First, rearrange the equation so that it is solving for y:
3x - y = 1
+y +y
3x = y + 1
-1 -1
3x - 1 = y
Now substitute the domain values you have listed into the 'x' of the equation to get the values for y.
For example:
3(-3) - 1 = y
-9 - 1 = y
y = -10

The number of lightning strikes in a year at the top of a particular mountain has a poisson distribution with a mean of 3.8. fin

atroni [7]

Let X be the number of lightning strikes in a year at the top of particular mountain.

X follows Poisson distribution with mean μ = 3.8

We have to find here the probability that in randomly selected year the number of lightning strikes is 0

The Poisson probability is given by,

P(X=k) = $\frac{e^{-mean} mean^{x}}{x!}$
