Answer:

S=H+2

Step-by-step explanation:

OK, so hailey is the variable H. And she is 2 years younger than her sister.

What is the age of her sister?

So we know it has to be, hailey's age + something? = age of her sister.

what is that +something? it's the number "2 years younger" so hailey's age; which is h, plus 2 is equal to her sister's age.

H+2=S

OK, why do we need to add 2? instead of minus two? Because hailey is 2 years younger than her sister, so you want hailey's age. If you were to minus 2, you'd be thinking that hailey is OLDER than her sister. Because if you want to her sister's age, you would have to SUBTRACT 2 because you are OLDER than her. So if you are younger than the sister, you would add to get your sister's age.

The number of accidents that occur at a busy intersection is Poisson distributed with a mean of 4.5 per week. Find the probabili

Mariana [72]

Answer:

a) 0.01111

b) 0.4679

c) 0.33747

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

The number of accidents per week can be treated as a Poisson distribution.

Mean number of accidents per week = 4.5

$\lambda= 4.5$

Formula:

$P(X =k) = \displaystyle\frac{\lambda^k e^{-\lambda}}{k!}\\\\ \lambda \text{ is the mean of the distribution}$

a) No accidents occur in one week.

$P(x =0)\\\\= \displaystyle\frac{4.5^0 e^{-4.5}}{0!}= 0.01111$

b) 5 or more accidents occur in a week.

$P( x \geq 5) = 1-\displaystyle \sum P(x$

c) One accident occurs today.

The mean number of accidents per day is given by

$\lambda = \dfrac{4.5}{7} = 0.64$

$P(x =1)\\\\= \displaystyle\frac{0.64^1 e^{-0.64}}{1!}= 0.33747$

Tony misplaced 7 77 stamps from his collection. He knows that each stamp of his is worth $ 0 . 1 5 $0.15dollar sign, 0, point, 1

denis23 [38]

I take it that only 7 stamps are misplaced and that we are asked for the total value of the stamps including those which have been misplaced.
If each is worth $0.15 then, the total worth of 7 stamps is $1.05. Then, we add this value to the value of his remaining stamps, $5.55, the answer would be $6.60.
