Answer:

The probability that the town has 30 or fewer residents with the illness = 0.00052.

Step-by-step explanation:

So, we have the following set of data or information or parameters given from the question above and they are; the number of people living in that particular society/community/town = 74,000 residents and the proportion of people that the diseases affected = .000215.

The first step to do is to determine the expected number of people with disease. Thus, the expected number of people with disease = 74,000 × .000215 = 15.91.

Hence, the probability that the town has 30 or fewer residents with the illness = 1.23 × 10^-7 × 15.91^30/ 2.65253 × 10^-32 = 0.00052.

Note the formula used in the calculating the probability that the town has 30 or fewer residents with the illness =  e^-λ × λ^x/ x!

For all of these you're trying to solve for the variable. The variable is usually a number or symbol.

11) -44+n=36
Step one would be to add 44 to both sides of the equation.

N=80

12) -36=p-91
Step one would be to add -91 to both sides of the equation.

P=55

13) X-225=671
Step one you be to add 225 to both sides of the equation. Although it may seem difficult because of the big numbers, it's the same technique.

14) 19=c-(-12)
Step one on this equation will be a little different. Because there are two negative signs (-), they turn into a plus sign. Remember, two negative signs make a positive sign.

19=c+12

Now you just subtract 12 from each side of the equation.

6=C
