pishuonlain [190]3 years ago
5 0

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

Prove the trig identity: (tanx/1+secx)+(1+secx/tanx)=2cscx
lakkis [162]
=[(sinx/cosx)/(1+1/cosx)] + [(1+1/cosx)/(sinx/cosx)]

=[(sinx/cosx)/(cosx+1/cosx)]+[(cosx+1/cosx)/(sinx/cosx)]

= [sinx/(cosx+1)] + [(cosx+1)/sinx]

= [sin^2x+(cosx+1)^2] / [sinx (cosx+1)]

= [2+2cosx] / [sinx(cosx+1)]

=[2(cosx+1)] / [sinx (cosx+1)]

= 2/sinx

= 2 cscx

(I think this will be helpful for you. if you can see the picture, it has more detail in it.)
