4 0

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

What is the value of x
Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

x = 98

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the interior angles in a polygon is

sum = 180° (n - 2) ← n is the number of sides

here n = 7, thus

sum = 180° × 5 = 900°

Sum the interior angles and equate to 900

x + 146 + 122 + 142 + 140 + 110 + 142 = 900, that is

x + 802 = 900 ( subtract 802 from both sides )

x = 98

A coffee supply store waits until the orders for its special coffee blend reach 100 pounds before making up a batch. Coffee sell
Daniel [21]
Let x represent the number of pounds of $10.75/lb coffee used in the mix.
.. 10.75x +3.25(100 -x) = 5.65*100 . . . . . . total cost of coffee blend
.. x(10.75 -3.25) = 100*(5.65 -3.25) . . . . . .separate x-terms from non-x terms
.. x = 240/7.5 = 32

32 pounds of $10.75/lb coffee should be used
68 pounds of $3.25/lb coffee should be used
