An article reports that 1 in 500 people carry the defective gene that causes inherited colon cancer. In a sample of 1500 individuals, what is the approximate distribution of the number who carry this gene?

a. Use the Poisson approximation to calculate the approximate probability that between 5 and 9 (inclusive) carry the gene.
b. Use the Poisson approximation to calculate the approximate probability that at least 9 carry the gene.

step-by-step explanation:

the answer would be 484

step-by-step explanation:

just multiply 0.484 times 1,000 (formula)

6/20

step-by-step explanation:

(2x + 16) + (x) = 180

step-by-step explanation:

given,

abcd is a quadrilateral inscribed in a circle

angle a is labeled x plus 16, (x + 16)

angle b is labeled x degrees, (x)

angle c is labeled 6x minus 4, (6x – 4)

angle d is labeled 2x plus 16, (2x + 16)

what equation can be used to solve for angle b?

we know that the sum of the opposite angles of a simple quadrilateral inscribed in a circle is 180 degrees.

angle b is opposite angle d

therefore, angle b + angle d = 180

(x) + (2x + 16) = 180 

same as (2x + 16) + (x) = 180
