Answer:
(a) The probability of more than one death in a corps in a year is 0.1252.
(b) The probability of no deaths in a corps over 7 years is 0.0130.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let <em>X</em> = number of soldiers killed by horse kicks in 1 year.
The random variable
.
The probability function of a Poisson distribution is:

(a)
Compute the probability of more than one death in a corps in a year as follows:
P (X > 1) = 1 - P (X ≤ 1)
= 1 - P (X = 0) - P (X = 1)

Thus, the probability of more than one death in a corps in a year is 0.1252.
(b)
The average deaths over 7 year period is: 
Compute the probability of no deaths in a corps over 7 years as follows:

Thus, the probability of no deaths in a corps over 7 years is 0.0130.
Answer:
In order to calculate the expected value we can use the following formula:
And if we use the values obtained we got:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let X the random variable that represent the number of admisions at the universit, and we have this probability distribution given:
X 1060 1400 1620
P(X) 0.5 0.1 0.4
In statistics and probability analysis, the expected value "is calculated by multiplying each of the possible outcomes by the likelihood each outcome will occur and then summing all of those values".
The variance of a random variable Var(X) is the expected value of the squared deviation from the mean of X, E(X).
And the standard deviation of a random variable X is just the square root of the variance.
In order to calculate the expected value we can use the following formula:
And if we use the values obtained we got:
Answer:
the price was reduced by 28%
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
the answer is A. if you notice the y-intercept, it its at -5
A is the only answer choice that gives -5 as the y-intercept
another way to make sure that A is the right answer is to calculate the slope
when you increase 3 units UP (y), you increase 5 units to the RIGHT (x)
since slope is y/x, it should be 3/5 which is also in A
another way to check A is to plug in points
hope this helps!
It would be 6 haha I just took a test and got it right
