Answer:
P=0.2613
Step-by-step explanation:
-Notice that this is a poison probability distribution problem.
-The Poisson probability function is expressed as:

where:
- x=0,1,2,3
Euler's constant
=mean number of occurrences.
Given that x= 2 and
, the probability is calculated as:

Hence, the probability that in a randomly selected office hour, the number of student arrivals is 2 is 0.2613
Answer:
should be 1213
Step-by-step explanation:
27×27=728
22×22=485
729+485= 1213
Answer:
20 ÷ 10 = 2
or
20 ÷ 2 = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
multiplication is the opposite of division
Answer:
Part 1
The mistake is Step 2: P + 2·x = 2·y
Part 2
The correct answer is
Step 2 correction: P - 2·x = 2·y
(P - 2·x)/2 = y
Step-by-step explanation:
Part 1
The student's steps are;
Step 1; P = 2·x + 2·y
Step 2: P + 2·x = 2·y
Step 3: P + 2·x/2 = y
The mistake in the work is in Step 2
The mistake is moving 2·x to the left hand side of the equation by adding 2·x to <em>P </em>to get; P + 2·x = 2·y
Part 2
To correct method to move 2·x to the left hand side of the equation, leaving only 2·y on the right hand side is to subtract 2·x from both sides of the equation as follows;
Step 2 correction: P - 2·x = 2·x + 2·y - 2·x = 2·x - 2·x + 2·y = 2·y
∴ P - 2·x = 2·y
(P - 2·x)/2 = y
y = (P - 2·x)/2
5. the numbers are being multiplied by 4 each time, so the geometric sequence would be
an= 1/2(4) ^(n-1)
6. the numbers are being multiplied by 1/4 each time, so the geometric sequence would be
an= 32(1/4)^(n-1)
an in the formula is what ever term in the sequence.
32 or 1/2 is the a which is the first term in the sequence.
4 or 1/4 is the r in the sequence because it is the common ratio so what the equation was multiplied by to get the next term.
(n-1) is because when you are using this equation to solve for whatever term (an) you must subtract the first number in the sequence to get an accurate number
an you can input whatever number when trying to solve.
