Answer:

0.8743 = 87.43% probability that more than one accident occurs per year

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 interval.

Buchtal, a manufacturer of ceramic tiles, reports on average 3.1 job-related accidents per year.

This means that \mu = 3.1

What is the probability that more than one accident occurs per year?

This is:

P(X > 1) = 1 - P(X \leq 1)

In which

P(X \leq 1) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1)

Then

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

P(X = 0) = \frac{e^{-3.6}*(3.6)^{0}}{(0)!} = 0.0273

P(X = 1) = \frac{e^{-3.6}*(3.6)^{1}}{(1)!} = 0.0984

P(X \leq 1) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) = 0.0273 + 0.0984 = 0.1257

P(X > 1) = 1 - P(X \leq 1) = 1 - 0.1257 = 0.8743

0.8743 = 87.43% probability that more than one accident occurs per year

19770609664 is simple power of 52⁶ .

What is exponent and power?

  • A base number raised to an exponent is referred to as a power in mathematics, where base number is the factor that is multiplied by itself and exponent is the number of times the same base number is multiplied.
  • Exponents and powers are two techniques for simplification of extremely big or extremely small numbers.
  • As an illustration, we can write 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 as 34, where 4 is the exponent and 3 is the base, if we need to represent it simply.
  • It is claimed that the entire statement 34 has power.

= 52⁶

= 52 × 52 × 52 × 52  × 52 × 52

=  19770609664

why can you write a subtraction problem as an addition problem?How do you write a subtraction problem as an addition problem?
-Dominant- [34]

You can write a subtraction problem as a division problem by subtracting one of the addends from the sum, then your other addend would be the answer.

Example :

5 + 6 = 11

11 - 5 = 6
