B. Identify the kind of algebraic expression and determine the degree, variables
1 answer:
9514 1404 393
Answer:
see the attachment
Step-by-step explanation:
There are no roots, fractional powers, or denominators containing variables, so each of these expressions is the sum of multiples of products of variables to integer powers. (One is a constant.) That makes each expression a <em>polynomial</em>. Some polynomials can be further classified by their degree.
The degree is the highest sum of powers of the variables in the terms. For example, the term a^2·b·c^2 has variables with powers 2, 1, and 2. The sum of those powers is 2+1+2 = 5, so this is a term of degree 5.
A constant is a term with no variables.

It is customary in algebra problems to use variables that are a single lower-case letter. Sometimes, a variable may be represented by a letter in uppercase, or in a special font or language (usually Greek). Sometimes, it may be a word or phrase. Here, we assume each variable is one letter, so xyz is the product of three variables.

Answer:
The probability is 0.2650
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's start assuming that men and women come in at the same rate.
Let's define the following random variables :
X : ''Number of people that enter a drugstore''
M : ''Number of men that enter a drugstore''
W : ''Number of women that enter a drugstore''
The number of people will be the number of men plus the number of women
⇒
X = M + W
We are also assuming that M and W are independent random variables.
X ~ Po (10)
M ~ Po (λ1)
W ~ Po (λ2)
λ1 = λ2 because we assumed that men and women come in at the same rate.
λ1 = λ2 = λ
λ1 + λ2 = λ + λ ⇒ 2λ = 10 ⇒ λ = 5
M ~ Po (5)
W ~ Po (5)
Because X is the sum of two independent Poisson random variables.
We are looking for :
Because we assume independence.
because is a Poisson random variable with λ = 5
