Answer:

0.1606 = 16.06% probability that the number of births in any given minute is exactly five.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a Poisson distribution, the probability that X represents the number of successes of a random variable is given by the following formula:

P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}

In which

x is the number of sucesses

e = 2.71828 is the Euler number

\mu is the mean in the given interval.

In this question:

We only have the mean during an interval, and this is why we use the Poisson distribution.

The mean number of births per minute in a given country in a recent year was about 6.

This means that \mu = 6

Find the probability that the number of births in any given minute is exactly five.

This is P(X = 5). So

P(X = 5) = \frac{e^{-6}*6^{5}}{(5)!} = 0.1606

0.1606 = 16.06% probability that the number of births in any given minute is exactly five.

What is P(2 or divisor of 9)?<br> please explain!
Dmitrij [34]

The probability that a divisor of 2 or 9 is chosen when the spinner is spun once is 2/3.

<h3>What is the probability?</h3>

Probability determines the chances that an event would happen. The probability the event occurs is 1 and the probability that the event does not occur is 0.

P(2 or divisor of 9) = section that has a divisor of 2/ total number of sections + section that has a divisor of 2/ total number of sections

1/3 + 1/ 3 = 2/3

Pls help I don't understand this

<h3>Answer:</h3>

<u>By angle bisector property</u>,

  • 11x + 23 = 8x + 35
  • 11x - 8x = 35 - 23
  • 3x = 12
  • x = 4°

So, <u>m∠ABD</u> = 8x + 35

  • 8 × 4 + 35
  • 32 + 35 = 67°

<u>m∠CBD</u> = 11x + 23

  • 11 × 4 + 23
  • 44 + 23 = 67°

<u>m∠ABC</u> = 67° + 67° = 134°
