Answer:

0.14

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the poisson probability relation :

P(x = x) = (λ^x * e^-λ) ÷ x!

From the question ; mean, λ = 5 ; x = 3

Hence,

P(x = 3) = (5^3 * e^-5) ÷ 3!

P(x = 3) = (125 * 0.0067379) / 6

P(x = 3) = 0.8422375 / 6

P(x = 3) = 0.140

A = {1, 3, 5, 7, 9} B = {2, 4, 6, 8, 10} C = {1, 5, 6, 7, 9} A ∩ (B ∪ C) =
vovikov84 [41]
A = {1, 3, 5, 7, 9}
B = {2, 4, 6, 8, 10}
C = {1, 5, 6, 7, 9}

(B ∪ C) = {1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10}
so
A ∩ (B ∪ C) = {1, 5, 7 , 9}

Which statement best describes the association between variable X and variable Y? Question 1 options: perfect negative associati
polet [3.4K]
The statement which best describes the association between the variables X and Y is the <em>moderate positive association</em>. It is observable that the values of X and Y are increasing, however, not in a perfect manner as there are some minor deviations. But nonetheless, the direction is clear and the values are close to each other so they have a moderate positive association.
