Answer:
a) 0.1992 = 19.92% probability of finding fewer than two potholes in a quarter-mile stretch of the highway.
b) 0.8008 = 80.08% probability of finding more than one pothole in a quarter-mile stretch of the highway.
Step-by-step explanation:
In a Poisson distribution, the probability that X represents the number of successes of a random variable is given by the following formula:
[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]
In which
x is the number of sucesses
e = 2.71828 is the Euler number
[tex]\mu[/tex] is the mean in the given interval.
a. Find the probability of finding fewer than two potholes in a quarter-mile stretch of the highway.
Mean of 12 potholes per mile, which means that in a quarter-mile stretch, the mean is [tex]\mu = \frac{12}{4} = 3[/tex]
This probability is:
[tex]P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1)[/tex]
In which
[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 0) = \frac{e^{-3}*(3)^{0}}{(0)!} = 0.0498[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 1) = \frac{e^{-3}*(3)^{1}}{(1)!} = 0.1494[/tex]
[tex]P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) = 0.0498 + 0.1494 = 0.1992[/tex]
0.1992 = 19.92% probability of finding fewer than two potholes in a quarter-mile stretch of the highway.
b. Find the probability of finding more than one pothole in a quarter-mile stretch of the highway.
This is
[tex]P(X > 1) = 1 - P(X < 2)[/tex]
We have that [tex]P(X < 2) = 0.1992[/tex]
So
[tex]P(X > 1) = 1 - P(X < 2) = 1 - 0.1992 = 0.8008[/tex]
0.8008 = 80.08% probability of finding more than one pothole in a quarter-mile stretch of the highway.
2X-5<9 solve inequality
Step-by-step explanation:
2x<9+5
2x<14
2x/2<14/2
x<7
Answer:
[tex]\boxed {\boxed {\sf x <7}}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve the inequality you must isolate the variable, which is x.
[tex]2x-5 < 9[/tex]
5 is being subtracted from 2x. The inverse of subtraction is addition, so add 5 to both sides of the equation.
[tex]2x-5+5 < 9+5[/tex]
[tex]2x < 14[/tex]
x is being multiplied by 2. The inverse of multiplication is division, so divide both sides by 2.
[tex]\frac {2x}{2} < \frac {14}{2}[/tex]
[tex]x <7[/tex]
The solution to this inequality is x <7

Step-by-step explanation:
Which equation represents a line which is parallel to the y-axis?
X=-4y
Y=x-3
Y=-7
X=-8
Answer:
x = -8
Step-by-step explanation:
If the line is parallel to the y axis, that means it will be a vertical line.
Vertical lines have an equation of x = , because the line will only go through one x value.
They also will not have a slope, because their slope is undefined.
So, the correct answer is x = -8
40 of the cats at the pet store are black, which is 25% of all cats. How many cats are there at the pet store
Answer:
There are 160 cats at the store.
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 40 black cats, which is 25% of all the cats. You are trying to find all the cats at the store, or 100% of the cats at the store. So:
40 = 25%
40(4) = 25% (4)
160 = 100%
There are 160 cats at the store.
Answer:
160
Step-by-step explanation:
25%=1/4=0.25
=40×4

and her total cost was $26.50. What is the price of one burrito?
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let tacos be x and burritos be y
So, Avery purchased 4x+2y = 21
Sasha purchased 4x+3y = 26.5
Solving the 2 eqns:
4x+2y=21
-4x-3y=-26.5
-y=-5.5
The cost of one burrito is $5.5

Answer:
5). x = 11.9°
6). x = 27.2°
Step-by-step explanation:
5). By applying cosine rule in the given triangle,
cos(32)° = [tex]\frac{\text{Adjacent side}}{\text{Hypotenuse}}[/tex]
cos(32)° = [tex]\frac{x}{14}[/tex]
x = 14cos(32)°
x = 11.87
x ≈ 11.9°
6). By applying sine rule in the given triangle,
sin(54°) = [tex]\frac{\text{Opposite side}}{\text{Hypotenuse}}[/tex]
sin(54°) = [tex]\frac{22}{x}[/tex]
x = [tex]\frac{22}{\text{sin(54)}}[/tex]

Find the errors and correct the following mathematical sentences.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
18). 3x + 2 ÷ 3x = [tex]\frac{2}{3x}[/tex]
Since, 3x + 2 ÷ 3x = 3x + [tex]\frac{2}{3x}[/tex]
Therefore, right hand side of the equation will be = 3x + [tex]\frac{2}{3x}[/tex]
20). [tex]\frac{4x+3}{3}=x+1[/tex]
Since, [tex]\frac{4x+3}{3}=\frac{4x}{3}+\frac{3}{3}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{4}{3}x+1[/tex]
Therefore, right hand side of the equation should be [tex]\frac{4}{3}x+1[/tex].

Finley's pumpkin had a mass of 6.5 kilograms (kg) before he carved it. After carving it, the pumpkin had a mass of 3.9 kg
Answer:
[tex]\%Change = -40\%[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]Initial = 6.5kg[/tex]
[tex]Final = 3.9kg[/tex]
Required
Determine the percentage change --- Missing from the question
This is calculated as
[tex]\%Change = \frac{Final - Initial}{Initial} * 100\%[/tex]
[tex]\%Change = \frac{3.9kg - 6.5kg}{6.5kg} * 100\%[/tex]
[tex]\%Change = \frac{-2.6kg}{6.5kg} * 100\%[/tex]
[tex]\%Change = \frac{-260}{6.5}\%[/tex]

What are Matrices?Matrices are a set of numbers arranged in such a way that the numbers are arranged in rows and columns.
Each number is called element in a matrix.
Given are two matrices.
A = [tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}2&-7\\6&1\\\end{array}\right][/tex] and B = [tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-9&5\\1&-1\\\end{array}\right][/tex]
We have given that, a matrix X exists such that,
X - A = B
We can rearrange this as,
X = A + B
Adding the two matrices,
The entries will be,
2 - 9 = -7
-7 + 5 = -2
6 + 1 = 7
1 - 1 = 0

Which systems of equations have the same solutions?
L (3x+y = 8
1x - 4y = -6
m{$*=*=230
NS 4x – 3y = 2
12% -8y = -12
Answer:
B. L and N
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's solve each system
✔️System L:
3x + y = 8 => Eqn. 1
x - 4y = -6 => Eqn. 2
x = -6 + 4y
Substitute x = (-6 + 4y) in eqn. 1
3(-6 + 4y) + y = 8
-18 + 12y + y = 8
-18 + 13y = 8
13y = 8 + 18
13y = 26
y = 26/13
y = 2
Substitute y = 2 into Eqn. 2
x - 4y = -6
x - 4(2) = -6
x - 8 = -6
x = -6 + 8
x = 2
Solution to system L = (2, 2)
✔️System M:
4x - 3y = 2 => Eqn. 1
5x - 4y = -30 => Eqn. 2
Multiply eqn 1 by 5, and eqn. 2 by 4
20x - 15y = 10
20x - 16y = -120
Subtract
y = 130
Substitute y = 130 into eqn. 1
4x - 3(130) = 2
4x - 390 = 2
4x = 2 + 390
4x = 392
x = 392/4 = 98
Solution to system M = (98, 130)
✔️System N:
4x - 3y = 2 =>Eqn. 1
2x - 8y = -12 => Eqn. 2
Multiply Eqn. 1 by 2, and eqn. 2 by 4
8x - 6y = 4
8x - 32y = -48
Subtract
26y = 52
y = 52/26
y = 2
Substitute y = 2 into eqn. 1
4x - 3(2) = 2
4x - 6 = 2
4x = 2 + 6
4x = 8
x = 8/4
x = 2
Solution to system N = (2, 2)
