You can multiply -2.2 by 6.2 to find the total variation in water level. What decimal represents the total variation in water level that Ericka observed?

the answer   is 200

step-by-step explanation:

this is a problem about poisson probabilities.   i don't know if you've

already studied poisson distributions, or if you have a place to look

to read more about the subject.  

here's how you can see a poisson distribution coming.   when there are

a lot of events that may happen at any time (or any place), and when

you're counting how many of them happen at a particular time (or a

particular place), and each event is independent of the others, then

the result is a poisson distribution.   this is roughly true for the

chocolate chips; one chip being in a cookie has only a small effect on

the probability that another chip will be in the cookie.

once you know you have a poisson distribution, you know a lot.   there

is only one parameter to a poisson distribution, so if you know the

mean, you know everything.   the form of the distribution is

  probability of n chips = {[e^(-x)]*(x^n)} / (n! )

answer: the answer for that is 22/3

46

step-by-step explanation:

given

height = 168 cm

formula

height =2.47*f+54.13

solution

168 = 2.47f + 54.13             subtract 54.13 from both sides

168 - 54.13   = 2.47f             combine

113.87 = 2.47f                     divide by 2.47

113.87 / 2.47 = f                   combine

46.1 = f  

answer: 46 cm
