Answer:  The value of a is -6.

Step-by-step explanation:

To do this we need to find the y-intercept first.

-2= 4(1/2) + b

-2=2+ b

-2  -2

b= -4  so now the y-intercept is -4  so we will now have the equation y= 1/2x -4

so now put -4 into the equation for x and solve for y.

y= 1/2(-4) -4

y = -6

The box plots show the data distributions for the number of text messages Will and Jaime sent each day.What is the difference of
Softa [21]
Hey there!

You can find the medians by referring to the line in the middle of both of the boxes. These indicate the median of the sets of data you have. The first median is at 10 and the other is at 12. 

All you need to do to find the difference is subtract the smaller number from the bigger number. 

12 – 10 = 2

Your difference will be 2, making your second option your answer. Hope this helped you out! :-)

a statistics professor finds that when he schedules an office hour at the 10:30a, time slot, an average of three students arrive
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

The probability that in a randomly selected office hour in the 10:30 am time slot exactly two students will arrive is 0.2241.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let <em>X</em> = number of students arriving at the 10:30 AM time slot.

The average number of students arriving at the 10:30 AM time slot is, <em>λ</em> = 3.

A random variable representing the occurrence of events in a fixed interval of time is known as Poisson random variables. For example, the number of customers visiting the bank in an hour or the number of typographical error is a book every 10 pages.

The random variable <em>X</em> is also a Poisson random variable because it represents the fixed number of students arriving at the 10:30 AM time slot.

The random variable <em>X</em> follows a Poisson distribution with parameter <em>λ</em> = 3.

The probability mass function of <em>X</em> is given by:

P(X=x)=\frac{e^{-\lambda}\lambda^{x}}{x!};\ x=0,1,2,3...,\ \lambda>0

Compute the probability of <em>X</em> = 2 as follows:

P(X=2)=\frac{e^{-3}3^{2}}{2!}=\frac{0.0498\times 9}{2}=0.2241

Thus, the probability that in a randomly selected office hour in the 10:30 am time slot exactly two students will arrive is 0.2241.
