The number of typing errors made by a typist has a Poisson distribution with an average of five errors per page. If more than fi

ve errors appear on a given page, the typist must retype the whole page. What is the probability that a randomly selected page does not need to be retyped

Answer:

0.61596

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

λ = 5 (5 errors per page)

Poisson distribution formula :

P(x = x) = (λ^x * e^-λ) / x!

Probability that page does not need to be retyped means that error on page is less than or equal to 5

P(x ≤ 5) = p(x = 5) + p(x = 4) +... + p(x = 0)

The individual probabilities can be obtained using the formula above or the use of a calculator

P(x ≤ 5) = 0.17547 + 0.17547 + 0.14037 + 0.08422 + 0.03369 + 0.00674

P(x ≤ 5) = 0.61596

The diagram shows a circle inscribed in a square.
beks73 [17]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

first lets find the area of the square

A=l*w

12*12=144 m^2

then lets find the are of the circle

A=pi*r^2

A=3.14*(d/2)^2

the diameter of the circle is 12m

A=3.14*(12/2)^2

A=3.14*(6)^2

A=3.14*36

A=113.04 m^2

Now, lets subtract the area of the circle form the area of the square

144-113.04= 30.96 m^2

So, the answer is A

What is the solution -10 = 2a - 4
Simora [160]

Add 4 to both sides

-10 + 4 = 2a

Simplify -10 + 4 to -6

-6 = 2a

Divide both sides by 2

-6/2 = a

Simplify 6/2 to 3

-3 = a

Switch sides

<u>a = -3</u>
