the indicated probabilities using the geometric distribution, the Poisson distribution, or the binomial distribution. Then determine if the events are unusual. If convenient, use the appropriate probability table or technology to find the probabilities. The mean number of births per minute in a country in a recent year was about seven. Find the probability that the number of births in any given minute is (a) exactly six, (b) at least six, and (c) more than six. (a) P(exactly six)= enter your response here (Round to four decimal places as needed.)
Using the Poisson distribution, it is found that the probabilities are:
a) 0.149
b) 0.6993
c) 0.5503
We are given only the mean, hence, the Poisson distribution is used.
In a Poisson distribution, the probability that X represents the number of successes of a random variable is given by:
[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}\mu^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]
The parameters are:
x is the number of successes e = 2.71828 is the Euler number [tex]\mu[/tex] is the mean in the given interval.The mean is of 7 births per minute, hence [tex]\mu = 7[/tex].
Item a:
The probability is P(X = 6), hence:
[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}\mu^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 6) = \frac{e^{-7}(7)^{6}}{(6)!} = 0.149[/tex]
Item b:
This probability is:
[tex]P(X \geq 6) = 1 - P(X < 6)[/tex]
In which:
[tex]P(X < 6) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5)[/tex]
Following the logic used in item a to find each probability, we have that [tex]P(X < 6) = 0.3007[/tex], hence:
[tex]P(X \geq 6) = 1 - P(X < 6) = 1 - 0.3007 = 0.6993[/tex]
Item c:
This probability is:
[tex]P(X > 6) = 1 - P(X \leq 6)[/tex]
[tex]P(X \leq 6) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) + P(X = 6)[/tex]
We have that [tex]P(X \leq 6) = 0.4497[/tex], hence:
[tex]P(X > 6) = 1 - P(X \leq 6) = 1 - 0.4497 = 0.5503[/tex]

How do you find out if angle A is a right angle?
Answer:
Calculate the distance of AB, AC and BC. Then use the pythagorean theorem to see if AB^2 + AC^2 = BC^2
If it does, angle A is a right angle.
tisha and her academic team are working
Answer:b equals T minus a minus c minus d all over 3 ⇒ 3rd answer
Step-by-step explanation:
- Tisha and her academic team have had three local matches
# Assume that the points of the local matches are a , c , d
- They will attend a district match
- District match points count for three times the number of points
than local matches do
# Assume that the points of the district match is b
- T is the total points they will earned in the four matches
∵ The points in the local matches are a , c , d
∵ The point in district mach is 3b
∴ T = a + c + d + 3b
* Lets find b in terms of a , c , d , T
∵ T = a + c + d + 3b
- Subtract a from both sides
∴ T - a = c + d + 3b
- Subtract c from both sides
∴ T - a - c = d + 3b
- Subtract d from both sides
∴ T - a - c - d = 3b
- Divide both sides by 3
∴
∴ b equals T minus a minus c minus d all over 3

Which equation matches the function described in the table?
A) y = 4x
B) y = x + 1
C) y = x + 5
D) y = 4x - 1
Answer:
D) y= 4x - 1
Step-by-step explanation:
We are basically trying to see which of the equations provided are true on both sides of the equal sign when you plug in the x and y values.
Let's start!
Choice A:
plug in 0 for x and -1 for y
-1 = 4(0)
And you are left with...
-1 = 0
This equation is false! Therefore it does not match the function in the table
Choice B:
plug in the values again
-1 = 0 + 1
-1 = 1
False!
Choice C:
-1 = 0 + 5
-1 = 5
False!
Lastly...Choice D:
-1 = 4(0) -1
Multiply 4 and 0 which is 0, so you are left with...
-1 = -1
This equation is true!!
So your answer is D

regal furniture company allocates its indirect salaries of $22,500 on the basis of sales. Determine the indirect salaries allocated to Departments 1 and 2 using the following information.
Answer:
$15750 and $6750Step-by-step explanation:
Revenue share of Dept. 1:
182000/260000*100% = 70%Revenue share of Dept. 2:
100% - 70% = 30%Allocate the indirect salary with same ratio.

HELP WITH PART C
Lionfish are considered an invasive species, with an annual growth rate of 65%. A scientist estimates there are 7,000 lionfish in a certain bay after the first year.
Part C: If scientists remove 1,300 fish per year from the bay after the first year, what is the recursive equation for f (n)? Show all necessary math work.
So I know that the equation would be
[tex]f(n) = (f_{n-1} )(r)[/tex]
Where f(n) is the number of years but I am confused on how to fill out the rest. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.
The recursive equation for f(n) will be f(n) = 4242.42(1.65)ⁿ - 1300n.
What is an exponent?Let Consider the function:
y = a (1 ± r) ˣ
Where x is the number of times this growth/decay occurs,
a = initial amount, and r = fraction which this growth/decay occurs.
Lionfish are considered an invasive species, with an annual growth rate of 65%.
Then the equation will be
f(n) = P(1.65)ⁿ
P = initial population
A scientist estimates there are 7,000 lionfish in a certain bay after the first year.
7000 = P(1.65)
P = 4242.42
Then the equation will be,
f(n) = 4242.42(1.65)ⁿ
If scientists remove 1,300 fish per year from the bay after the first year.
Then the recursive equation for f(n) will be,
f(n) = 4242.42(1.65)ⁿ - 1300n
