Answer:

4.6 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the area of a triangle is ...

A = 1/2bh

Fill in the given values and solve for the base.

5.52 = 1/2b(2.4)

5.52/1.2 = b = 4.6 . . . . divide by the coefficient of b

The base is 4.6 feet.

A system of equations is shown below: n = 3m + 5 n − 2m = 3 What is the solution, in the form (m, n), to the system of equations

marshall27 [118]

$n=3m+5 \\
n-2m=3 \\ \\
\hbox{substitute 3m+5 for n in the second equation:} \\
3m+5-2m=3 \\
m+5=3 \\
m=3-5 \\
m=-2 \\ \\
n=3m+5 \\
n=3 \times (-2)+5 \\
n=-6+5 \\
n=-1 \\ \\
(m,n)=(-2,-1)$

The answer is C.

Alinara [238K]

Answer:

a) $P(X \leq 4) = 0.6289$

$P(X < 4) = 0.4335$

b) $P(4 \leq X \leq 8) = 0.5452$

c) $P(X \geq 8) = 0.0511$

d) 0.2605

Step-by-step explanation:

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 time interval.

It is important to know that the variance has the same value as the mean in a Poisson distribution. The standard deviation is the square root of the variance.

In this problem, we have that:

$\mu = 4, \sigma = \sqrt{4} = 2$ .
