A mail-order company receives an average of 7 orders per 600 solicitations. Part: 0/2 Part 1 of 2 Find the mean number a of orders in 120 solicitations. 2 Part 2 of 2 If it sends out 120 advertisements, find the probability of receiving at least 3 orders. The probability is . (Round your answer to four decimal places.) Х



Answer :

Part 1: The mean number of orders are 1.4 and Part 2: The probability of receiving at least 3 orders is 0.1665.

An average of n numbers computed by adding some function of the numbers and dividing by some function of n. synonyms: mean. types: arithmetic mean, expectation, expected value, first moment. the sum of the values of a random variable divided by the number of values.

1) Here 7 orders per 600 solicitations,

So in 120 solicitations,

=7/600 x 120

=1.4

2) P(x>3)= 1-P(x< 2)

=1-e^-1.4 (1.4^0/0+1.4^1/1+1.1^2/2)

=0.1665

The probability is 0.1665.
