Answer:
(a) The probability of more than one death in a corps in a year is 0.1252.
(b) The probability of no deaths in a corps over 7 years is 0.0130.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let <em>X</em> = number of soldiers killed by horse kicks in 1 year.
The random variable 
.
The probability function of a Poisson distribution is:
(a)
Compute the probability of more than one death in a corps in a year as follows:
P (X > 1) = 1 - P (X ≤ 1)
= 1 - P (X = 0) - P (X = 1)
Thus, the probability of more than one death in a corps in a year is 0.1252.
(b)
The average deaths over 7 year period is: 
Compute the probability of no deaths in a corps over 7 years as follows:
Thus, the probability of no deaths in a corps over 7 years is 0.0130.
Answer:
No.
Step-by-step explanation:
To determine if (0,0) is a solution to the inequality, substitute 0 for x and 0 for y and check to see. Thus:
Substitute 0 for x and 0 for y:
Multiply:
Subtract:
So, (0,0) is <em>not</em> a solution.
And we're done!
Answer:
No they are equivalent
Step-by-step explanation:
3/7 =21/35
3/5=21/35
Answer:
1. ridescost+admission=total
if x=number of tickets and y is total and cost per ride is 1.25 then
1.25x+admission=y
if we solve
when x=25, y=43.75
1.25(25)+admission=43.75
31.25+admission=43.75
minus 31.25 from both sides
admission=12.50
a.
y=1.25x+12.5
b.
x is number of tickets and y is total cost
c. math, seriously, just read what is above option a (the one in the top of the answer)
if you're too lazy then:
ridescost+admission=total
if x=number of tickets and y is total and cost per ride is 1.25 then
1.25x+admission=y
if we solve
when x=25, y=43.75
2.
(a)
m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1) = (4 - 9)/(-2 - 8) = -5/(-10) = 1/2
(b)
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
Using the first given point,
y - 9 = (1/2)(x - 8)
Using the second given point,
y - 4 = (1/2)(x + 2)
note they both simplify to
y = (1/2)x + 5
(c)
y = (1/2)x + 5
