Answer: $\dfrac{3}{6}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Sharmila has $\frac{5}{6}$ portion of cake

she gave $\frac{2}{6}$ portion to her brother

The remaining cake is given by

$\Rightarrow \dfrac{5}{6}-\dfrac{2}{6}=\dfrac{5-2}{6}\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{3}{6}$

i.e. $\frac{3}{6}$ portion of cake will remain with her

A rare form of malignant tumor occurs in 11 children in a million, so its probability is 0.000011. Four cases of this tumor occ

Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

a) The mean number of cases is 0.14608 cases.

b) The probability that the number of cases is exactly 0 or 1 is 0.990.

c) The probability of more than one case is 0.010

d) No, because the probability of more than one case is very small

Step-by-step explanation:

We can model this problem with a Poisson distribution, with parameter:

$\lambda=r*t=0.000011*13,280=0.14608$

a) The mean amount of cases is equal to the parameter λ=0.14608.

b) The probability of having 0 or 1 cases is:

$P(k=0)=\frac{\lambda^0 e^{-\lambda}}{0!}=\frac{1*0.864}{1} =0.864\\\\ P(k=1)=\frac{\lambda^1 e^{-\lambda}}{0!}=\frac{0.14608*0.864}{1} =0.126\\\\P(k\leq1)=0.864+0.126=0.990$

c) The probability of more than one case is:

$P(k>1)=1-P(k\leq 1)=1-0.990=0.010$

d) The cluster of 4 cases can not be due to pure chance, as it is a very high proportion of cases according to the average rate. Just having more than one case has a probability of 1%.

Answer the following question in *full sentences*

Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation has 100, which represents the cost of the printer, then you add to .05p which stands for each page is .05 and you multiply it by p which would be the amount of pages, so when you do .05p it stands for the equation to to calculate the total cost of pages. Then .25p is the cost times the amount of pages.

Hope this helps, you understand it more.
