If the volume of the sculpture is 75 cubic inches, what is the height of the pyramid, in inches?

Answer:

H = v / (L x W) / 3

H = 75 / (37.5) / 3

H = 75 / 12.5

H = 6 inches

Mrac [35]

Answer:

8x miles

Step-by-step explanation:

runs with speed 8 mph
bikes at an average speed of 14 mph

distance = speed * time

Here the speed for run is 8 mph and time is x hours

So distance covered: 8 * x = 8x miles.

45) lí the midpoint of AB is (4,3) and point A has coordinates (-2,6),

sweet [91]

Midpoint has a formula x plus x2 divided by 2 and vice versa for y
So to solve you need to fill in numbers
You can replace x with negative 2 since you know that the coordinates for point A are -2,4
Solve to get 10
And vice versa for the y coordinate you solve the filled in equation to get 0
Your end result is 10,0

The number of people arriving at a ballpark is random, with a Poisson distributed arrival. If the mean number of arrivals is 10,

Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

a) 3.47% probability that there will be exactly 15 arrivals.

b) 58.31% probability that there are no more than 10 arrivals.

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 time interval.

If the mean number of arrivals is 10

This means that $\mu = 10$

(a) that there will be exactly 15 arrivals?

This is P(X = 15). So

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

$P(X = 15) = \frac{e^{-10}*(10)^{15}}{(15)!} = 0.0347$

3.47% probability that there will be exactly 15 arrivals.

(b) no more than 10 arrivals?

This is $P(X \leq 10)$

$P(X \leq 10) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) + P(X = 6) + P(X = 7) + P(X = 8) + P(X = 9) + P(X = 10)$

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

$P(X = 0) = \frac{e^{-10}*(10)^{0}}{(0)!} = 0.000045$

$P(X = 1) = \frac{e^{-10}*(10)^{1}}{(1)!} = 0.00045$

$P(X = 2) = \frac{e^{-10}*(10)^{2}}{(2)!} = 0.0023$

$P(X = 3) = \frac{e^{-10}*(10)^{3}}{(3)!} = 0.0076$

$P(X = 4) = \frac{e^{-10}*(10)^{4}}{(4)!} = 0.0189$

$P(X = 5) = \frac{e^{-10}*(10)^{5}}{(5)!} = 0.0378$

$P(X = 6) = \frac{e^{-10}*(10)^{6}}{(6)!} = 0.0631$

$P(X = 7) = \frac{e^{-10}*(10)^{7}}{(7)!} = 0.0901$

$P(X = 8) = \frac{e^{-10}*(10)^{8}}{(8)!} = 0.1126$

$P(X = 9) = \frac{e^{-10}*(10)^{9}}{(9)!} = 0.1251$

$P(X = 10) = \frac{e^{-10}*(10)^{10}}{(10)!} = 0.1251$

$P(X \leq 10) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) + P(X = 6) + P(X = 7) + P(X = 8) + P(X = 9) + P(X = 10) = 0.000045 + 0.00045 + 0.0023 + 0.0076 + 0.0189 + 0.0378 + 0.0631 + 0.0901 + 0.1126 + 0.1251 + 0.1251 = 0.5831$

58.31% probability that there are no more than 10 arrivals.
