Answer:

$175

Step-by-step explanation:

you need to specify if harriet got the 7 portion or the 5 portion. I'll answer as if she got the 7 portion.

They split it into 12 portions because the ratio is 7:5 and 7+5=12. So do $300/12=25

Assuming Maya got the 5 portion, do $25 x 5 = $125, so Maya got $125.

Assuming Harriet got the 7 portion, do $25 x 7 = $175, so Harriet got $175.

In a certain communications system, there is an average of 1 transmission error per 10 seconds. Assume that the distribution of

Nitella [24]

Answer:

The probability of 1 error in a period of 0ne - half minute is 0.1494

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for poisson distribution:

$P (X = k) = \frac{\exp^{- \lambda} \lambda^{x} }{x!}$

If there is an average of 1 error in 10 seconds

In one-half minutes (i.e. 30 seconds), there will be an average of 30/10 errors = 3 errors

$\lambda = 3 errors\\x = 1$

$P (X = 1) = \frac{\exp^{-3} 3^{1} }{1!}$

1! = 1

$P (X = 1) = 3 \exp^{-3}$

P(X = 1) = 3 * 0.0498

P(X = 1) = 0.01494
