Answer:

The train travels at a faster rate of 63 mph, whereas the bus travels at a rate of 59 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide 504 by 8 to 63. Divide 531 by 9 to get to 59.

Find the missing term (need help)

katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

x² - 10x + 34

Step-by-step explanation:

given the roots are x = 5 ± 3i then the factors are

(x - (5 + 3i))(x - (5 - 3i))

= (x - 5)² - 9i² ← expand (x - 5)²

= x² - 10 x + 25 + 9 → [ i² = - 1 ]

= x² - 10x + 34

the missing term is 10x

Suppose that X has a Poisson distribution with a mean of 64. Approximate the following probabilities. Round the answers to 4 dec

o-na [289]

Answer:

(a) The probability of the event (X > 84) is 0.007.

(b) The probability of the event (X < 64) is 0.483.

Step-by-step explanation:

The random variable X follows a Poisson distribution with parameter λ = 64.

The probability mass function of a Poisson distribution is:

$P(X=x)=\frac{e^{-\lambda}\lambda^{x}}{x!};\ x=0, 1, 2, ...$

(a)

Compute the probability of the event (X > 84) as follows:

P (X > 84) = 1 - P (X ≤ 84)

$=1-\sum _{x=0}^{x=84}\frac{e^{-64}(64)^{x}}{x!}\\=1-[e^{-64}\sum _{x=0}^{x=84}\frac{(64)^{x}}{x!}]\\=1-[e^{-64}[\frac{(64)^{0}}{0!}+\frac{(64)^{1}}{1!}+\frac{(64)^{2}}{2!}+...+\frac{(64)^{84}}{84!}]]\\=1-0.99308\\=0.00692\\\approx0.007$

Thus, the probability of the event (X > 84) is 0.007.

(b)

Compute the probability of the event (X < 64) as follows:

P (X < 64) = P (X = 0) + P (X = 1) + P (X = 2) + ... + P (X = 63)

$=\sum _{x=0}^{x=63}\frac{e^{-64}(64)^{x}}{x!}\\=e^{-64}\sum _{x=0}^{x=63}\frac{(64)^{x}}{x!}\\=e^{-64}[\frac{(64)^{0}}{0!}+\frac{(64)^{1}}{1!}+\frac{(64)^{2}}{2!}+...+\frac{(64)^{63}}{63!}]\\=0.48338\\\approx0.483$

Thus, the probability of the event (X < 64) is 0.483.
