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

How do l do this I’m so confused
Anika [276]

Answer:

967.6cm^{2}  (1 d.p)

Step-by-step explanation:

Total Surface Area of Cylinder = 2\pi rh+2\pi r^{2}

Given from the question, r = 7 cm and h = 15cm

Lets Substitute r and h into the formula to find the Total Surface Area of the cylinder.

Total Surface Area of Cylinder = 2\pi (7)(15)+2\pi (7)^{2} \\=210\pi +98\pi \\=308\pi cm^{2} \\=967.6cm^{2}  (1 d.p)

a plane is flying horizontally at an altitude of 21000 feet with a ground speed of 875 feet per second. the plane passes directl
Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

the angle is changing at a rate of 0.0375 rad/s when the time is t=8 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

since the line D that starts from the spectator and follows the plane has the following equation

D² = x² + H² ,  where H= altitude of the plane , x= horizontal distance

then for x=v*t , where v=speed of the plane and t=time since the plane has passed overhead , we have for the elevation angle

tan θ = x/y =  v*t /H

θ = tan⁻¹ ( v*t /H)

the rate of change in the angle of the spectator's sight θ with the time is

dθ/dt = 1/1+(v*t /H)² * (v/H) = (v/H)/[1+ (v/H)²*t²]

for t=8 seconds

dθ/dt = (875 ft/s/21000 ft)/[1+ (875 ft/s/21000 ft)²*(8 s)²] = 0.0375 rad/s

therefore the angle is changing at a rate of 0.0375 rad/s when the time is t=8 seconds
