Answer: 25

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are told that a producer of electronic book readers is performing a quality check to make sure that the reader's backlight is working correctly. Then, the plant manager tests 2,000 readers on Monday and finds that 8 have defective backlights. The fraction 1/x is the experimental probability of a book reader having a defective backlight. What is the value of x?

Number of tested readers= 2000

Defective backlight = 8

Probability of having a defective backlight will be the number of defective backlight divided by the number of readers tested. This will be:

= 8/200

We reduce the nice fraction to its lowest term.

8/200 = 1/25

Therefore x will be 25

A circle fits inside a semicircle of diameter 24mm
patriot [66]

Answer:

The shaded are is 113\ mm^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The shaded area is equal to the area of the semicircle minus the area of the circle inside the semicircle

step 1

Find the area of semicircle

The area of semicircle is equal to

A=\frac{1}{2}\pi r^{2}

where

r=24/2=12\ mm ----> the radius is half the diameter

substitute

A=\frac{1}{2}\pi(12)^{2}=72\pi\ mm^{2}

step 2

Find the area of the circle inside the semicircle

The area of circle is equal to

A=\pi r^{2}

where

r=12/2=6\ mm ---> the radius of circle inside is half the radius of semicircle

substitute

A=\pi(6)^{2}=36\pi\ mm^{2}

step 3

Find the shaded area

72\pi\ mm^{2}-36\pi\ mm^{2}=36\pi\ mm^{2}

assume

\pi=3.14

36(3.14)=113.04\ mm^{2}

3 significant figures is

113\ mm^{2}

Uma urna contém 10 bolas identificadas pelas letras A, B, ..., J. Uma bola é extraída ao acaso da urna e sua letra é observada.
arlik [135]

Answer:

a) Probability that a letter of the drawn ball is vowel = (3/10) = 0.30

b) Probability that a letter of the drawn ball is consonant = (7/10) = 0.70

a) Probabilidade de uma letra da bola sacada ser vogal = (3/10) = 0.30

b) Probabilidade de uma letra da bola sacada ser consoante = (7/10) = 0,70

Step-by-step explanation:

English Translation

A ballot box contains 10 balls identified by the letters A, B, ..., J. A ball is drawn at random from the ballot box and its letter is observed. (Make the sample space and all events explicit). What is the probability that a letter of the drawn ball is: a) Vowel b) Consonant

Solution

The 10 balls are identified by A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I and J

Note that the probability of an event is given as the number of elements in that event divided by the number of elements in the sample space.

a) Probability of drawing a ball that has a vowel letter = P(v)

P(v) = n(v) ÷ n(S)

n(v) = Number of balls with vowel letters = 3 (that is, A, E and I)

n(S) = Total number of balls = 10

P(v) = (3/10) = 0.30

b) Probability of drawing a ball that has a consonant letter = P(c)

P(c) = n(c) ÷ n(S)

n(c) = Number of balls with consonant letters = 7 (that is, B, C, D, F, G, H and J)

n(S) = Total number of balls = 10

P(c) = (7/10) = 0.70

In Portugese/Em português

As 10 bolas são identificadas por A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I e J.

Observe que a probabilidade de um evento é fornecida como o número de elementos nesse evento dividido pelo número de elementos no espaço de amostra.

a) Probabilidade de desenhar uma bola com uma letra de vogal = P (v)

P (v) = n (v) ÷ n (S)

n (v) = Número de bolas com letras de vogal = 3 (ou seja, A, E e I)

n (S) = Número total de bolas = 10

P (v) = (3/10) = 0,30

b) Probabilidade de desenhar uma bola com uma letra consoante = P (c)

P (c) = n (c) ÷ n (S)

n (c) = Número de bolas com letras consoantes = 7 (ou seja, B, C, D, F, G, H e J)

n (S) = Número total de bolas = 10

P (c) = (7/10) = 0,70

Jenna dances for 3 hours on sunday, 2 hours on Monday and Tuesday, 1 hour on THursday,1.5 hours oon friday, and 2 hours on Satur
Delicious77 [7]

Answer: The average number of hours she danced per day is 1.9 hours (rounded to the nearest tenth)

Step-by-step explanation: We start by calculating how many hours she danced all together which can be derived as follows;

Summation = 3 +2 +2 + 1 + 1.5 + 2 = 11.5

The number of days she danced which is the observed data is 6 days (she did  not dance at all on Wednesday).

The average (or mean) hours she danced each day can be calculated as

Average = ∑x ÷ x

Where ∑x is the summation of all data and x is number of observed data

Average = (3+2+2+1+1.5+2) ÷ 6

Average = 11.5 ÷ 6

Average = 1.9166

Approximately, average hours danced is 1.9 hours (to the nearest tenth)
