A research team has developed a face recognition device to match photos in a database. From laboratory tests, the recognition ac

curacy is 92% and trials are assumed to be independent.
(a) If the research team continues to run laboratory tests, what is the mean number of trials until failure?
(b) What is the probability that the first failure occurs on the tenth trial? Round your answer to four decimal places.
(c) To improve the recognition algorithm, a chief engineer decides to collect 6 failures. How many trials are expected to be needed? Round your answer to one decimal place

Answer:

a) mean number of trails =1/p=1/(1-0.92)=12.5

b)

probability=(0.92)9*0.08=0.6624

c)

expected number of trails required =6/0.08=75

The pucks used by the National Hockey League for ice hockey must weigh between and ounces. Suppose the weights of pucks produced
Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

P(5.5

And we can find this probability using the normal standard distribution or excel and we got:

P(-2.769

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we assume the following complete question: "The pucks used by the National Hockey League for ice hockey must weigh between 5.5 and 6 ounces. Suppose the weights of pucks produced at a factory are normally distributed with a mean of 5.86 ounces and a standard deviation of 0.13ounces. What percentage of the pucks produced at this factory cannot be used by the National Hockey League? Round your answer to two decimal places. "

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".  

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable that represent the weights of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

X \sim N(5.86,0.13)  

Where \mu=5.86 and \sigma=0.13

We are interested on this probability

P(5.5

And the best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

If we apply this formula to our probability we got this:

P(5.5

And we can find this probability using the normal standard distribution or excel and we got:

P(-2.769

Find a matrix representation of the transformation L(x, y) = (3x + 4y, x − 2y).
mario62 [17]

Answer:

\left[\begin{array}{cc}x&y\end{array}\right] * \left[\begin{array}{cc}3&1\\4&-2\end{array}\right] = \left[\begin{array}{cc}3x+4y&x-2y\end{array}\right]

Step-by-step explanation:

The general matrix representation for this transformation would be:

\left[\begin{array}{cc}x&y\end{array}\right] * A = \left[\begin{array}{cc}3x+4y&x-2y\end{array}\right]

As the matrix A should have the same amount of rows as columns in the firs matrix and the same amount of columns as the result matrix it should be a 2x2 matrix.

\left[\begin{array}{cc}x&y\end{array}\right] * \left[\begin{array}{cc}a&b\\c&d\end{array}\right] = \left[\begin{array}{cc}3x+4y&x-2y\end{array}\right]

Solving the matrix product you have that the members of the result matrix are:

3x+4y = a*x + c*y

x - 2y = b*x + d*y

So the matrix A should be:

\left[\begin{array}{cc}3&1\\4&-2\end{array}\right]

When Val checks her cable bill, she is shocked by her movie-rental bill for the month. Renting movies costs $2.99 for each movie
astraxan [27]

Answer:

She should buy the monthly plan for the unlimited movies rather than pay $2.99 per movie. This is because, the more she pay that amount for each movie, the higher her expenses would become at the end of each month.

For example, let assume, in a month, she 8 free days (Saturday and Sunday). She paying for each movie each of those days would supersede the amount she could have spent assuming she did the unlimited monthly plan of $7.99.

That notwithstanding other days which will feel like watching movies or the public holidays which she would be free to relax.

Which story represents the equation six sevenths times one fourth?
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:  (C) Victoria has six sevenths of a pizza. She ate one fourth of it for dinner. How much pizza did Victoria eat for dinner?

Step-by-step explanation: One clue is "of" in the story and which matches "times" in the equation sentence. The question is is about multiplication.

Words such as "more" "and" & "total" are usually clues that the question is about addition. "Give" "take" "difference" & "have/are left" are clues that there is subtraction in the process.
