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

MrMuchimi

Answer:

Remember that for a subset of a ring to be an ideal it must be closed under addition and under taking multiples by elements of the ring, and in this case the set of all composite integers is not closed under addition.

Write an equation of the line passing through point p that is perpendicular to the given line. p(3,1), y=13x−5
Anarel [89]
You know two lines y=ax+b and y=mx+n that are perpendicular, so we have the product a*m=-1

+ This line is perpendicular to y=13x-5, so it has equation: y=-1/13x+b
+ And it passes through the point (3;1), so we have x=3, y=1. So 1=-1/13 *3+b
and b= 1+3/13= 16/13
And we have y=-1/13x+16/13
