Answer:
(a) The probability of more than one death in a corps in a year is 0.1252.
(b) The probability of no deaths in a corps over 7 years is 0.0130.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let <em>X</em> = number of soldiers killed by horse kicks in 1 year.
The random variable
.
The probability function of a Poisson distribution is:

(a)
Compute the probability of more than one death in a corps in a year as follows:
P (X > 1) = 1 - P (X ≤ 1)
= 1 - P (X = 0) - P (X = 1)

Thus, the probability of more than one death in a corps in a year is 0.1252.
(b)
The average deaths over 7 year period is: 
Compute the probability of no deaths in a corps over 7 years as follows:

Thus, the probability of no deaths in a corps over 7 years is 0.0130.
Answer:
there is no solution to the problem but after calculating and searching a possible answer is
x = -6
y = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
2/45
Step-by-step explanation:
Note this selection is done without replacement hence after each selection sample size will reduce
Given data
Samples 3 chocolate chip bars,
2 peanut butter bars,
1 lemon bar, and
4 raisin bars
Sample size S= [3+2+1+4]= 10
Probability that first selection is lemon = 1/10
Probability that second selection is raisin = 4/9
Hence the probability that the first bar Iesha selects will be lemon and the second will be raisin= 1/10*4/9
= 4/90= 2/45
