In a recent year, a hospital had 4386 births. Find the mean number of births per day, then use that result and the Poisson distribution to find the probability that in a day, there are 14 births. Does it appear likely that on any given day, there will be exactly 14 births? The mean number of births per day is nothing.

Mean number of births = 12.02 births per day.

P(X=14) = 0.0908=9.08%

Not likely

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean number of births (λ):

Assuming a Poisson distribution, the probability of X = 14 successes (births on a single day) is determined by:

The probability that there are exactly 14 births in a day is 9.08%, which is not likely.

the slope of the line is 60

one point on the line is (40,10)

step-by-step explanation:

in the equation outside the parenthesis the equation always tells you the slope. in this case it is 60.

in the parenthesis is also says 40 which is x because it is near the x and 10 is y because it is near y.
