Answer:

  1. When Two containers are selected

(a) Probability that the second one selected is defective given that the first one was defective = 0.00450

(b) Probability that both are defective = 0.0112461

(c) Probability that both are acceptable = 0.986

    2. When Three containers are selected

(a) Probability that the third one selected is defective given that the first and second one selected were defective = 0.002.

(b) Probability that the third one selected is defective given that the first one selected was defective and the second one selected was okay = 0.00451

(c) Probability that all three are defective = 6.855 x 10^{-8} .  

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a batch of 445 containers for frozen orange juice contains 3 defective ones i.e.

                  Total containers = 445

                   Defective ones   = 3

           Non - Defective ones = 442 { Acceptable ones}

  • Two containers are selected, at random, without replacement from the batch.

(a) Probability that the second one selected is defective given that the first one was defective is given by;

  <em>Since we had selected one defective so for selecting second the available </em>

<em>   containers are 444 and available defective ones are 2 because once </em>

<em>    chosen they are not replaced.</em>

Hence, Probability that the second one selected is defective given that the first one was defective = \frac{2}{444} = 0.00450

(b) Probability that both are defective = P(first being defective) +

                                                                     P(Second being defective)

                 = \frac{3}{445} + \frac{2}{444} = 0.0112461

(c) Probability that both are acceptable = P(First acceptable) +  P(Second acceptable)

Since, total number of acceptable containers are 442 and total containers are 445.

 So, Required Probability = \frac{442}{445}*\frac{441}{444} = 0.986

  • Three containers are selected, at random, without replacement from the batch.

(a) Probability that the third one selected is defective given that the first and second one selected were defective is given by;

<em>Since we had selected two defective containers so now for selecting third defective one, the available total containers are 443 and available defective container is 1 .</em>

Therefore, Probability that the third one selected is defective given that the first and second one selected were defective = \frac{1}{443} = 0.002.

(b) Probability that the third one selected is defective given that the first one selected was defective and the second one selected was okay is given by;

<em>Since we had selected two containers so for selecting third container to be defective, the total containers available are 443 and available defective containers are 2 as one had been selected.</em>

Hence, Required probability = \frac{2}{443} = 0.00451 .

(c) Probability that all three are defective = P(First being defective) +

                              P(Second being defective) +  P(Third being defective)

        = \frac{3}{445}* \frac{2}{444}  * \frac{1}{443} = 6.855 x 10^{-8} .

use the drop-down menus to describe the key aspects of the function f(x) = –x2 – 2x – 1. the vertex is the . the function is inc
timurjin [86]

Answer:

The vertex of the parabola is the maximum value, i.e.,(-1,0). The function is increasing x<-1. the function is decreasing x>-1. the domain of the function is all real numbers. the range of the function is all real numbers less than or equal to 0.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is

f(x)=-x^2-2x-1

f(x)=-[x^2+2x+1]

f(x)=-(x+1)^2                 ....(1)

The general vertex form of the parabola is

f(x)=a(x-h)^2+k           .....(2)

Where, (h,k) is vertex and a is stretch factor.

On comparing (1) and (2), we get

a=-1

h=-1

k=0

The vertex of the parabola is (-1,0). Since a=-1<1 so it is a downward parabola.

The axis of symmetry is x=-1. So, before -1 the function is increasing and after -1 the function is decreasing.

The vertex of a downward parabola is the point of maxima. So, the rang of the function can not exceed 0.

Therefore the vertex of the parabola is the maximum value, i.e.,(-1,0). The function is increasing x<-1. the function is decreasing x>-1. the domain of the function is all real numbers. the range of the function is all real numbers less than or equal to 0.
