Using the Poisson distribution, it is found that:
a) Frequency of shoplifting is a common occurrence. It is reasonable to assume the events are independent.b) 0.8541 = 85.41% probability that from 10 A.M. to 9 P.M. there will be at least one shoplifting incident caught by security.c) 0.303 = 30.3% probability that from 10 A.M. to 9 P.M. there will be at least three shoplifting incidents caught by security.d) 0.1459 = 14.59% probability that from 10 A.M. to 9 P.M. there will be no shoplifting incidents caught by security.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.Item a:
In this problem, we are given the mean during an interval, which is a common event(1.4 every 8 hours), and intervals can be assumed to be independent, hence, the correct option is:
Frequency of shoplifting is a common occurrence. It is reasonable to assume the events are independent.Item b:
Mean of 1.4 every 8 hours, hence, every 11 hours, the mean is:
[tex]\mu = 11 \times \frac{1.4}{8} = 1.925[/tex]
The probability is:
[tex]P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0)[/tex]
In which:
[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}\mu^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 0) = \frac{e^{-1.925}(1.925)^{0}}{(0)!} = 0.1459[/tex]
Then
[tex]P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0) = 1 - 0.1459 = 0.8541[/tex]
0.8541 = 85.41% probability that from 10 A.M. to 9 P.M. there will be at least one shoplifting incident caught by security.
Item c:
The probability is:
[tex]P(X \geq 3) = 1 - P(X < 3)[/tex]
In which:
[tex]P(X < 3) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2)[/tex]
Then:
[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}\mu^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 0) = \frac{e^{-1.925}(1.925)^{0}}{(0)!} = 0.1459[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 1) = \frac{e^{-1.925}(1.925)^{1}}{(1)!} = 0.2808[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 2) = \frac{e^{-1.925}(1.925)^{2}}{(2)!} = 0.2703[/tex]
[tex]P(X < 3) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) = 0.1459 + 0.2808 + 0.2703 = 0.697[/tex]
[tex]P(X \geq 3) = 1 - P(X < 3) = 1 - 0.697 = 0.303[/tex]
0.303 = 30.3% probability that from 10 A.M. to 9 P.M. there will be at least three shoplifting incidents caught by security.
Item d:
[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}\mu^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 0) = \frac{e^{-1.925}(1.925)^{0}}{(0)!} = 0.1459[/tex]

Given ABCD, solve for x.
A. 11
B. 13
C. 14
D. 12
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Because you have a parallelogram, the two angles shown are "same side interior angles" which means they add up to 180°.
We would say that they are supplementary (they add up to 180°)
So add them together and set them equal to 180°
(4x+18) + (8x+30) = 180°
This is all adding, so we dont really need any of these parenthesis.
4x+18+8x+30=180
Add the x terms together and add the constants (plain numbers) together.
12x + 48 = 180
Subtract 48 from both sides of the equation.
12x = 132
Divide both sides by 12
x = 11

the product of seven non-zero factors. of which only three are positive. is
a) positive
B) negative
c) null
The answer is A
Step-by-step explanation: This is one of those sneaky questions where you think there is no definite answer, but don't despair. There is an answer. You have 7 numbers 3 of them are positive which means greater than 0. Let's pick them 345 = 60 That part's easy. Those 3 numbers give a plus result. Now try the other 4 numbers -3 -2 - 1-4 Do you see what's going to happen. You have -3* - 2 = 6 then you get - 1*-4 = 4 All of a sudden you get a positive result 6 * 4 = 24 60 * 24 = 1440 So the answer is any 3 plus numbers multiplied by 4 minus numbers gives a plus result.
Of 7 non-zero factors, 3 are positive, so the other 4 are negative. Multiplying two negatives gives a positive number. So on its own, the product of all the negatives is positive, and multiplying by the other 3 positive numbers makes the overall product positive.
Loto begins at his back door and walk 8 yards east, 6 yards north, 12 yards east, and 5 yards north to the barn door. About how many yards less would he walk if he could walk directly from the back door to the barn door?
If he could walk directly from the back door to the barn door, he would walk 10.2 yards less.
First, let's define our coordinate axis, I will use north as the y-axis and east as the x-axis.
So let's assume that Loto begins at the point (0, 0).
Then:
He moves 8 yards east, to: (8yd, 0)He moves 6 yards north, to: (8yd, 6yd)He moves 12 yards east, to: (20yd, 6yd)He moves 5 yards north, to: (20yd, 11yd)So he walked a total of 8yd + 6yd + 12yd + 5yd = 33yd
So he just moves from (0, 0) to (20yd, 11yd), thus the displacement is:
[tex]D =\sqrt{(20yd - 0yd)^2 + (11yd - 0yd)^2} = 22.8ft[/tex]
So, if he could walk directly he would only walk 22.8 ft
The difference is:
33yd - 22.8yd = 10.2 yd.
He would walk 10.2 yards less if he could walk directly from the back door to the barn door.

Step-by-step explanation:
2, 1/2, 1/8, 1/32
To find the common ratio, take the second term and divide by the first term
1/2 ÷ 2
1/2 * 1/2
1/4
The common ratio is 1/4
1/2 * 1/4 = 1/8 and 1/8 *1/4 = 1/32
The first term is a1 so a1 = 2
an = the common ratio * an-1
an = 1/4 * an-1
Answer:
Below.
Step-by-step explanation:
The common ratio = 1/2 / 2 = 1/2 * 1/2 = 1/4.
Also 1/8 / 1/2 =2/8 = 1/4 and 1/32 / 1/8 = 1/32 * 8 = 1/4
an = 1/4 * an-1 is the answer.
20x9 and I need help I don’t do math so can u help me
Answer:
180
Step-by-step explanation:
So you can get rid of the zero in the 20 for now and just solve 2 x 9, which is 18. Now you take the zero you got rid of earlier and put it at the end of 18 to get 180.
I hope this helps.
Answer:
180
Step-by-step explanation:
There is two ways you can do this. You can do:
20
x 9
180
This is because you multiply from right to left. 0 x 9 = 0 (anything x 0 always = 0.) And 2 x 9 = 18.
The second way takes a lot longer, but it works. You could do:
20 + 20 + 20 + 20 + 20 + 20 + 20 + 20 + 20 = 180.

Answer:
none of the above
Maximum (3π/2, 1); Minimum (π/2, -1)
Step-by-step explanation:
The sine function is shifted left 1/2 cycle by the addition of π to x in the argument. That basically inverts the function, so it is equivalent to ...
y = -sin(x)
This has a minimum of -1 at π/2, and a maximum of +1 at 3π/2. This does not match any of the offered answer choices.

Need help pls! Answer asap
Answer:
1. 50
2. 130
Step-by-step explanation:
If we number the angle opposite 2 as 3 we know that angle 3 is equal to the 130 already provided.
Therefore, resulting in number 2 being equal to angle 3.
If we know that angle 2 and 3 is 130, we should add the numbers together to get 260.
A circle has a degree of 360, so we minus 260 from the 360.
We would get 100, so we divide it by 2.
Thus, angle 1 would be equivalent to 50.

Anita's, a fast-food chain specializing in hot dogs and garlic fries, keeps track of the proportion of its customers who decide to eat in the restaurant (as opposed to ordering the food "to go"), so it can make decisions regarding the possible construction of in-store play areas, the attendance of its mascot Sammy at the franchise locations, and so on. Anita's reports that 52% of its customers order their food to go. If this proportion is correct, what is the probability that, in a random sample of 5 customers at Anita's, exactly 4 order their food to go?
Round your response to at least three decimal places
Using the binomial distribution, it is found that there is a 0.1755 = 17.55% probability that, in a random sample of 5 customers at Anita's, exactly 4 order their food to go.
For each customer, there are only two possible outcomes, either they order their food to go, or they do not. The orders of each customer are independent of other customers, hence, the binomial distribution is used to solve this question.

Let |u| = 10 at an angle of 45° and |v| = 13 at an angle of 150°, and w = u + v. What is the magnitude and direction angle of w?
|w| = 9.4; θ = 72.9°
|w| = 9.4; θ = 107.1°
|w| = 14.2; θ = 72.9°
|w| = 14.2; θ = 107.1°
Recall that for two vector x and y making an angle θ with each,
x • y = ||x|| ||y|| cos(θ)
If we replace y with x, we see that
x • x = ||x|| ||x|| cos(0) = ||x||² ⇒ ||x|| = √(x • x)
Using the last identity, the magnitude of w is
||w|| = √(w • w)
but since w = u + v, we have
w • w = (u + v) • (u + v)
The dot product distributes over sums and is commutative, so
w • w = (u • u) + (u • v) + (v • u) + (v • v)
… = ||u||² + 2 (u • v) + ||v||²
… = ||u||² + 2 ||u|| ||v|| cos(θ) + ||v||²
If u has a direction of 45° with the positive x-axis, v has a direction of 150°, then the angle between u and v is |45° - 150°| = 105°. So,
||w|| = √(||u||² + 2 ||u|| ||v|| cos(150°) + ||v||²)
… = √(10² + 2 • 10 • 13 cos(150°) + 13²)
… ≈ 14.2
Using the parallelogram rule for vector addition (see attached sketch), the sum of the angle between w and u and 45° is equal to the direction of w.
If φ is the angle between w and u, then
w • u = ||w|| ||u|| cos(φ)
… = 14.2 • 10 • cos(φ)
but we also have
w • u = (u + v) • u
… = (u • u) + (v • u)
… = ||u||² + ||u|| ||v|| cos(105°)
… = 10² + 10 • 13 • cos(105°)
… ≈ 66.4
Then
14.2 • 10 • cos(φ) ≈ 66.4
cos(φ) ≈ 0.467
φ ≈ 62.1°
and so the direction of w is 62.1° + 45° ≈ 107.1°.
