Clare explained that 2 to the second power was 2 x 2 explain why her way wasn’t the best.

her answer wasn't the best cus "2 to the second power" is 2 x 2 x 2 since it says second

Step-by-step explanation:

Correct, but misleading

Step-by-step explanation:

"2 to the second power" is 2^2. Although 2x2 will give the same, correct, answer, it is misleading. If 2^2 is 2x2, then would 2^3 be 2x3?

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! )

what is all that apply?
