Assume that automobile accidents at a dangerous intersection occur according to a Poisson process at the rate of 3 accidents per week. Furthermore, the num- ber of people seriously injured in an accident has a Poisson distribution with mean 2 and is independent of the other accidents. Find the mean and standard deviation of the number of serious injuries over a one year's time.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The mean number of serious injuries over a one year's time is of 104 and the standard deviation is of 10.2

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. The standard deviation is the square root of the mean.

Find the mean and standard deviation of the number of serious injuries over a one year's time.

Per week, mean [tex]\mu = 2[/tex]

A year has approximately 52 weeks, so, the mean is [tex]\mu = 2*52 = 104[/tex], and the standard deviation is [tex]\sqrt{104} = 10.2[/tex]

A rectangle has a width measuring 5 ft. and a length measuring x −2. Write and solve an inequality that represents the values of x for which the area of the rectangle will be at least 35 square feet

Answers

Answer:

The inequality is: [tex]5(x - 2) \geq 35[/tex]

The solution is: [tex]x \geq 9[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a rectangle:

The area of a rectangle with length l and width w is given by:

A = lw

In this question:

Width 5 feet.

Length x - 2.

For which the area of the rectangle will be at least 35 square feet

Equal or greater than 35. So

[tex]5(x - 2) \geq 35[/tex]

[tex]5x \geq 45[/tex]

[tex]x \geq \frac{45}{5}[/tex]

[tex]x \geq 9[/tex]

The circumference of a circle is 2πr, or 2*pi*radius

Suppose the circle has a diameter of 4 inches. A diameter is 2x the radius, of which we are looking for, therefore:

4÷2=2 inches (radius length)

A number has the digits 6, 2, 9 to the nearest 100, the number rounds to 600 what is the number

Answers

Answer:

629

Step-by-step explanation:

rounds to 629 as t he closest hundred

This question is based on the concept of round - off rule. A number has the digits 6, 2, 9 to the nearest 100, the number rounds to 600  is 629.

Given:

A number has the digits 6, 2, 9 to the nearest 100, the number rounds to 600 what is the number.

According to the question,

The digit is given that 6, 2 and 9.

So, the digit at hundredth place is 6 and last two digit will be 29 or 92.

But, it is given that the number rounds to 600.

Thus, the number is at hundredth place is 6 and tenth place is 2 and at unit place is 9.

Therefore, the number would be 629 which is the number rounds to 600.

and the number 692 is not closest to 600.Thus we have to choose 29.

Hence, the number is 629.

Answers

Answer:

positive

Step-by-step explanation:

trust me if its wrong den sry

Answer:

Slope = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the road goes down 748 feet every 374 feet forward, we can calculate slope by dividing the drop by the travel.

748/374 = 2

Since the road is going down, the slope has to be negative so it is -2.

-PLEASE ANSWER- An experiment was repeated a number of times and the following measurements were obtained:

How would you obtain the best, single result from these measurements?

*Hint: Eliminate the outliers!*

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given data, it can be observed that there are two number that are abnormal and extremely different from others, 322 and 19. Eliminating these two numbers would reduce the error that can be generated.

Then to obtain the best single result from the measurements, find the mean of the other numbers.

i.e  52.3, 52.5, 52.2, 52.6

Mean =  [tex]\frac{52.3 + 52.5 + 52.2 + 52.6}{4}[/tex]

Using statistics as well as statistical tools helps in the provision of data to be used for business analysis. With available data we can get patterns in a a large database. Statistics can be used for auditing, as in question option b. For option c, statistics can be used for making business forecasts after the careful observation of trends and patterns that are in the data.

Option d does not make use of statistics. It has nothing to do with statistics neither does it have a computational feature.

Therefore, d.) questioning the executive's strategic decision is the answer to this question

A 10-ft vertical post casts a 14-inch shadow at the same time a nearby cell phone tower cast a 119-ft shadow. How tall is the cell phone tower?

The cell phone tower’s height is ___ ft?

Answers

Answer:

The cellphone towers height is 1020 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question is solved using proportions, by a rule of three.

A 10-ft post casts a 14-inch shadow.

Each feet has 12 inches, which means that a post with 10 feet will cast a 14/12 = 1.167 ft shadow. How tall is the cell-phone tower with a 119-feet shadow?

10 feet post - 1.167 ft shadow

x feet tower - 119 feet shadow

Applying cross multiplication:

[tex]1.167x = 10*119[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{1190}{1.167}[/tex]

[tex]x = 1020[/tex]

The cellphone towers height is 1020 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

Check each answer:

6^2=36 but 36<64 so it cannot be A

8^2=64 but 64<64 (remember that even though they are equal to each other it doesn't meet the requirements of the inequality) so it cannot be B

11^2=121 and 121>64 so it can be C

-6^2=36 but 36<64 so it cannot be D (remember that squaring a number that is negative results in a positive number)

-8^2=64 but 64<64 so it cannot be E (see explanations for B and D)

-11^2=121 and 121>64 so it can be F

Therefore, the only two correct solutions are options C and F

[tex]\frac{p}{1.25} = \frac{1.25t}{1.25}[/tex]

[tex]t = \frac{p}{1.25}[/tex]
