This problem is a combination of the Poisson distribution and binomial distribution.

First, we need to find the probability of a single student sending less than 6 messages in a day, i.e.
P(X<6)=P(X=0)+P(X=1)+P(X=2)+P(X=3)+P(X=4)+P(X=5)
=0.006738+0.033690+0.084224+0.140374+0.175467+0.175467
= 0.615961

For ALL 20 students to send less than 6 messages, the probability is
P=C(20,20)*0.615961^20*(1-0.615961)^0
=6.18101*10^(-5)   or approximately
=0.00006181

victus00 [196]

Complete question :

Hayley is buying herbs. She wants to buy 5/6  ounce of basil. The scale she is using to weigh the basil displays the weight as a decimal. How will she know when the display on the scale is correct to the tenths place? Explain your reasoning.

Answer:

0.8

Step-by-step explanation:

To obtain the fractional expression of weight in decimal form:

5/ 6 ounce of bassil is converted into decimal :

5 / 6 = 0.8333

Hence, for a fraction of 5 /6, we obtain;

5/6 = 0.8333

To the nearest tenth :

0.8

How can you find the LCM of two rational expressions if the polynomials cannot be factored?
Leviafan [203]

Answer:

To find the LCD of two rational expressions, we factor the expressions and multiply all of the distinct factors. For instance, if the factored denominators were (x+3)(x+4) ( x + 3 ) ( x + 4 ) and (x+4)(x+5) ( x + 4 ) ( x + 5 ) , then the LCD would be (x+3)(x+4)(x+5) ( x + 3 ) ( x + 4 ) ( x + 5 ) .
