Answer:
a. P(X ≤ 5) = 0.999
b. P(X > λ+λ) = P(X > 2) = 0.080
Step-by-step explanation:
We model this randome variable with a Poisson distribution, with parameter λ=1.
We have to calculate, using this distribution, P(X ≤ 5).
The probability of k pipeline failures can be calculated with the following equation:

Then, we can calculate P(X ≤ 5) as:

The standard deviation of the Poisson deistribution is equal to its parameter λ=1, so the probability that X exceeds its mean value by more than one standard deviation (X>1+1=2) can be calculated as:

Answer:
Option D
Step-by-step explanation:
The questions which involve calculating the angles and the sides of a triangle either require the sine rule or the cosine rule. In this question, the two sides that are given are adjacent to each other the given angle is the included angle. This means that the angle B is formed by the intersection of the lines a and c. Therefore, cosine rule will be used to calculate the length of b. The cosine rule is:
b^2 = a^2 + c^2 - 2*a*c*cos(B).
The question specifies that c=71, B=123°, and a=65. Plugging in the values:
b^2 = 65^2 + 71^2 - 2(65)(71)*cos(123°).
Simplifying gives:
b^2 = 14293.0182932.
Taking square root on the both sides gives b = 119.6 (rounded to the one decimal place).
This means that the Option D is the correct choice!!!
Answer:
0.02 inches per minute
Step-by-step explanation:
1 Week = 10080 minutes
Formaul: multiply the time value by 10080 to find the minutes in a week or do it the long way 60x24x7 = 10080
230/10080 = 0.02281746031 or 0.02 rounded to nearest hundert.
