Wayne Gretsky scored a Poisson mean six number of points per game. sixty percent of these were goals and forty percent were assi

BartSMP [9]

Answer:

a) The mean for the total revenue he earns per game is of 13.2K while the standard deviation is of 3.63K.

b) 0.05 = 5% probability that he has four goals and two assists in one game

Step-by-step explanation:

In hockey, a point is counted for each goal or assist of the player.

In a Poisson distribution, the probability that X represents the number of successes of a random variable is given by the following formula:

$P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}$

In which

x is the number of sucesses

e = 2.71828 is the Euler number

$\mu$ is the mean in the given interval. The standard deviation is the square root of the mean.

(a) Find the mean and standard deviation for the total revenue he earns per game.

60% of six are goals, which means that 60% of the time he earned 3K.

40% of six are goals, which means that 40% of the time he earned 1K.

The mean is:

$\mu = 6*0.6*3 + 6*0.4*1 = 13.2$

The standard deviation is:

$\sigma = \sqrt{\mu} = \sqrt{13.2} = 3.63$

The mean for the total revenue he earns per game is of 13.2K while the standard deviation is of 3.63K.

(b) What is the probability that he has four goals and two assists in one game

Goals and assists are independent of each other, which means that we find the probability P(A) of scoring four goals, the probability P(B) of getting two assists, and multiply them.

Probability of four goals:

60% of 6 are goals, which means that:

$\mu = 6*0.6 = 3.6$

The probability of scoring four goals is:

$P(A) = P(X = 4) = \frac{e^{-3.6}*(3.6)^{4}}{(4)!} = 0.19122$

Probability of two assists:

40% of 2 are assists, which means that:

$\mu = 6*0.4 = 2.4$

The probability of getting two assists is:

$P(B) = P(X = 2) = \frac{e^{-2.4}*(2.4)^{2}}{(2)!} = 0.26127$

Probability of four goals and two assists:

$P(A \cap B) = P(A)*P(B) = 0.19122*0.26127 = 0.05$

0.05 = 5% probability that he has four goals and two assists in one game

Sarah has a collection of nickels, dimes, and quarters worth $28.75. She has 10 more dimes than nickels and twice as many quarte

Ymorist [56]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Write an equation for each statement:

:

"Sarah has a collection of nickels, dimes, and quarters worth $15.75."

.05n + .1d + .25q = 15.75

:

"She has 10 more dimes than nickels"

d = n + 10

:

"twice as many quarters as dimes."

q = 2d

:

How many coins of each kind does she have?

:

Take the 2nd equation and arrange it so n is in terms of d also

n + 10 = d

n = (d - 10)

:

In the 1st equation substitute (d-10) for n and 2d for q:

.05n + .1d + .25q = 15.75

:

.05(d-10) + .1d + .25(2d) = 15.75

:

.05d - .5 + .1d + .5d = 15.75

:

.65d - .5 = 15.75

:

.65d = 15.75 + .5

:

.65d = 16.25

:

d = 16.25/.65

:

d = 25 dimes

:

Remember the statement "twice as many quarters as dimes."

q = 2(25)

q = 50 quarters

:

The statement "She has 10 more dimes than nickels"

n = 25 - 10

n - 15 nickels

:

Check our solutions

.05(15) + .1(25) + .25(50) =

.75 + 2.50 + 12.50 = 15.75 proves our solutions

a bastetball is passed through the air. The height h of the ball in feet after the distance d in feet the ball travels horizonta

Ksenya-84 [330]

You want the (positive) distance when the height is 0, 0= -d^2 + 10d +5. You would factor that out(You'd get radicals), and the final answer would be 5±30−−√ You'd take the only positive one of the two, 5 + srt(30) I hope I did that right :/
