A county office gets an average of 10 calls in a 2 hour time period. What is the probability that the county office will get more than 0 calls in a 15 minute period? Round your answer to three decimal places.

0.713 = 71.3% probability that the county office will get more than 0 calls in a 15 minute period.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the mean during a time-period, which means that the Poisson distribution is used to solve this question.

In a Poisson distribution, the probability that X represents the number of successes of a random variable is given by the following formula:

In which

x is the number of sucesses

e = 2.71828 is the Euler number

is the mean in the given interval.

A county office gets an average of 10 calls in a 2 hour time period.

10 calls each 120 minutes, which means that the mean for n minutes is:

15 minute period:

This means that

What is the probability that the county office will get more than 0 calls in a 15 minute period?

This is:

In which

So

0.713 = 71.3% probability that the county office will get more than 0 calls in a 15 minute period.

the answer would be d.

step-by-step explanation:

move all variables to the left side and all constants to the right side

(x−3)^2+(y−1)^2=16

this is the form of a circle. use this form to determine the center and radius of the circle.

( x − h ) 2 + ( y − k ) 2 = r 2

match the values in this circle to those of the standard form. the variable   r   represents the radius of the circle,   h   represents the x-offset from the origin, and   k   represents the y-offset from origin.

r = 4

h = 3

k = 1

the center of the circle is found at   ( h , k ) .

center:   ( 3 , 1 )

these values represent the important values for graphing and analyzing a circle.

center:   ( 3 , 1 ).

radius:   4
