Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that transitor has a 2% defective rate, need to calculate the probability that the 10th transistor produced is the first with a defect.

The probability function is p(x=k) = (1-p)^(n-1) * p

p = (1-defective rate)^(n-1) * defective rate; n=10

p = (1-0.02)^9 * 0.02 = 0.98^9 * 0.02 = 0.01666

Serga [27]

Answer : domain: {x | x is a real number}; range: {y | y >- 8}

the domain and range of f(x) = 4^x – 8

For exponential function , there is no restriction for x

So domain is all real numbers

For exponential function , f(x) = a^x + b

The range is y > b

The range of f(x) = 4^x -8 is y> -8

domain: {x | x is a real number}; range: {y | y > –8}

Write the numbers in order from greatest to least 7/10, 0.888, 3/5, 0.27
kvasek [131]
It would be 
.888,7/10,3/5,.27 
what you would do is convert 7/10 and 3/5 into a decimal to see what order you would place them and 7/10 as a decimal is .7 and 3/5 to a decimal is .6 so .888 is greater then it will be 7/10 then 3/5 then .27

Eileen is taking a trip to Louisiana and expects to drive 850 miles round trip. If her car gets 23 miles per gallon, and the cos
bazaltina [42]
The answer is <span>$103.

To determine </span><span> how much Eileen will spend on gasoline, first we need to calculate how many gallons she needs.
If she drives 850 miles and </span><span>her car gets 23 miles per gallon, we can use the proportion:
850 miles : x gallons = 23 miles : 1 gallon
Crossing the products:
x = 850 miles </span>× 1 gallon ÷ 23 miles
x = 36.96 gallons

Thus, Eileen needs 36.96 gallons of gas. If the cost per gallon of gas is$2.79, using the proportion:
36.96 gallons : x = 1 gallon : <span>$2.79
x = 36.96 gallons </span>× $2.79 <span>÷ 1 gallon
x = </span>$103.12 
x ≈ $<span>103</span>

The top surface of a desk has a length of 5.6 ft and the length is 4 times its width what is the width of the desk
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

<u>The width of the top surface of the desk is 1.4 feet.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review all the information given for solving this question:

Length of the top surface of a desk = 5.6 feet

Width of the top surface of a desk= x

2. Let's find the width of the top surface of the desk

Length of the top surface of a desk = Four times the width

5.6 = 4x

5.6/4 = 4x/4 (Dividing by 4 at both sides)

1.4 = x

<u>The width of the top surface of the desk is 1.4 feet.</u>
