Answer: If order does not matter then we can use following formula to find different combinations of 6 numbers out of 46 numbers

Step-by-step explanation: Use following Combination formula

nCr = n! / r!(n-r)!

n=46

r=6

=46!/6!(46-6)!

=46!/[6!(40)!]

=(46*45*44*43*42*41*40!)/(6*5*4*3*2*1)(40!)

Cancel out 40!

=46*45*44*43*42*41/(6*5*4*3*2*1)

=6744109680/720

=9366819

businessText message users receive or send an average of 62.7 text messages per day. How many text messages does a text message
KiRa [710]

Answer:

(a) The probability that a text message user receives or sends three messages per hour is 0.2180.

(b) The probability that a text message user receives or sends more than three messages per hour is 0.2667.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let <em>X</em> = number of text messages receive or send in an hour.

The random variable <em>X</em> follows a Poisson distribution with parameter <em>λ</em>.

It is provided that users receive or send 62.7 text messages in 24 hours.

Then the average number of text messages received or sent in an hour is: \lambda=\frac{62.7}{24}= 2.6125.

The probability of a random variable can be computed using the formula:

P(X=x)=\frac{e^{-\lambda}\lambda^{x}}{x!} ;\ x=0, 1, 2, 3, ...

(a)

Compute the probability that a text message user receives or sends three messages per hour as follows:

P(X=3)=\frac{e^{-2.6125}(2.6125)^{3}}{3!} =0.21798\approx0.2180

Thus, the probability that a text message user receives or sends three messages per hour is 0.2180.

(b)

Compute the probability that a text message user receives or sends more than three messages per hour as follows:

P (X > 3) = 1 - P (X ≤ 3)

              = 1 - P (X = 0) - P (X = 1) - P (X = 2) - P (X = 3)

             =1-\frac{e^{-2.6125}(2.6125)^{0}}{0!}-\frac{e^{-2.6125}(2.6125)^{1}}{1!}-\frac{e^{-2.6125}(2.6125)^{2}}{2!}-\frac{e^{-2.6125}(2.6125)^{3}}{3!}\\=1-0.0734-0.1916-0.2503-0.2180\\=0.2667

Thus, the probability that a text message user receives or sends more than three messages per hour is 0.2667.
