Answer:

0.047

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that poisson distribution with mean m, for 0.5 square meter =1.5

Then the formula for finding the probability =

P[k] = (e^-m * m^k) k!

Hence we have

P[4] =[ (e^-1.5) * (1.5^4)] ÷ 4 * 3 * 2 * 1

= (0.2231301601 * 5.0625) ÷ 24

=( 1.12944375) ÷24

= 0.04706

≈ 0.047

Hence, the final answer is 0.047

Triangle MRN is created when an equilateral triangle is folded in half. Triangle N R M is shown. Angle N R M is a right angle. A
Fed [463]

Answer:

The value of x is 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that triangle MRN is created when an equilateral triangle is folded in half.

It means original equilateral is triangle MNO and NR is a perpendicular bisector (<em>A line which cuts a line segment into two equal parts at 90°</em>).

The side length of the triangle is

NO = NS + SM = 6 + 2 = 8

Since an equilateral triangle is a triangle in which all three sides are equal and NR is a perpendicular bisector, therefore

RM = MO/2 = 8/2 = 4

The value of x is 4.

If x varies jointly as y and z, and x = 8 when y = 4 and z = 9, find z when x = 16 and y = 6. 3
Ghella [55]

Answer:

Joint variation says that:

if x \propto y and x \propto z

then the equation is in the form of:

x = kyz, where, k is the constant of variation.

As per the statement:

If x varies jointly as y and z

then by definition we have;

x=k(yz)           ......[1]

Solve for k;  

when x = 8 , y=4 and z=9

then

Substitute these in [1] we have;

8=k(4 \cdot 9)

⇒8 = 36k

Divide both sides by 36 we have;

\frac{8}{3}=k

Simplify:

k = \frac{2}{9}

⇒x = \frac{2}{9}yz

to find z when x = 16 and y = 6

Substitute these value we have;

16 = \frac{2}{9} \cdot 6 \cdot z

⇒16 = \frac{12}{9}z

Multiply both sides by 9 we have;

144 = 12z

Divide both sides by 12 we have;

12 = z

or

z = 12

Therefore, the value of z is, 12

If 10a+10b=35, what is the average (arithmetic mean) of a and b?
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

1.75

Step-by-step explanation:

If a  and b are two numbers, then their arithmetic mean is

\dfrac{a+b}{2}

Given:

10a+10b=35

Divide this equation by 10:

a+b=3.5

Now, divide it by 2:

\dfrac{a+b}{2}=\dfrac{3.5}{2}\\ \\\dfrac{a+b}{2}=1.75

Each time Kristine gets paid, she spends $20 and saves the rest. If the amount Kristine earns is represented by x and the amount
faust18 [17]

We are given that Kristine spends $20 and saves the rest each time she get paid.

We can use slope-intercept form y=mx+b to represent the equation.

Where x represents the amount Kristine earns and y represents the amount she saves.

Kristine spends $20. Therefore b= -20.

Plugging mx as just x and b=-20.

<h3>y = x-20.</h3><h3>If we plug y=0, we get </h3><h3>0 = x-20</h3><h3>x=20.</h3><h3>We can see in 4th option we have x-intercept =20.</h3><h3>Therefore, correct option is 4th option. </h3><h3 />
