Answer:

0.195

0.191

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

μ = 4

Using poisson :

P(x) = (e^-μ * μ^x) ÷ x!

P(x = 3) = (e^-4 * 4^3) / 3!

= (0.0183156 * 64) / 6

= 0.1953664

= 0.195

b. What is the probability that he will sell at most 5 policies in two weeks period?

Mean per week = 4

Mean in two weeks = 4 * 2 = 8

P(x ≤ 5) = p(5) + p(4) +... + p(0)

Using the poisson distribution calculator :

P(x ≤ 5) = 0.19124

= 0.191

5 barrels catch rainwater in the schoolyard. Four barrels are the same size, and the fifth barrel holds 10 liters of water. Comb

ch4aika [34]

Answer:

The volume each of the four barrels of the same size will be at least 47.5 liters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the volume of each of the four barrels is v liters.

Now, the amount of water that can be held in the fifth barrel is 10 liters. The total capacity of holding water for the 5 barrels combines is at least 200 liters.

So, from the above-given information, we can write the inequality to determine the volume of each of the four barrels will be

10 + 4v ≥ 200

Solving this we get,

4v ≥ 190

⇒ v ≥ 47.5

Therefore, the volume each of the four barrels of the same size will be at least 47.5 liters. (Answer)

Write two different rational functions whose graphs have the same end behaviour as the graph of y=3x^2

baherus [9]

Answer:

$y=x^2+5x+20\\ \\ y=8x^2+35$

Explanation:

The <em>end behavior</em> of a <em>rational function</em> is the limit of the function as x approaches negative infinity and infinity.

Note that the the values of even functions are the same for ± x. That implies that their limits for ± ∞ are equal.

The limits of the quadratic function of general form $y=ax^2+bx+c$ as x approaches negative infinity or infinity, when $a$ is positive, are infinity.

That is because as the absolute value of x gets bigger y becomes bigger too.

In mathematical symbols, that is:

$\lim_{x \to -\infty}3x^2=\infty\\ \\ \lim_{x \to \infty}3x^2=\infty$

Hence, the graphs of any quadratic function with positive coefficient of the quadratic term will have the same end behavior as the graph of y = 3x².

Two examples are:

$y=x^2+5x+20\\ \\ y=8x^2+35$
