Answer:

GCF = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

72 = 2³·3²

84 = 2²·3·7

Common prime factors are 2 and 3. The lowest power of 2 is 2; the lowest power of 3 is 1. The greatest common factor is 2²·3 = 12.

The number of failures of a testing instrument from contamination particles on the product is a Poisson random variable with a m

photoshop1234 [79]

Answer: 0.1353

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The mean of failures = 0.025 per hour.

Then for 8 hours , the mean of failures = $\lambda=8\times0.25=2$ per eight hours.

Let X be the number of failures.

The formula to calculate the Poisson distribution is given by :_

$P(X=x)=\dfrac{e^{-\lambda}\lambda^x}{x!}$

Now, the probability that the instrument does not fail in an 8-hour shift :-

$P(X=0)=\dfrac{e^{-2}2^0}{0!}=0.1353352\approx0.1353$

Hence, the the probability that the instrument does not fail in an 8-hour shift = 0.1353
