The production department has installed a new spray machine to paint automobile doors. As is common with most spray guns, unsigh

tly blemishes often appear because of improper mixtures or other problems. A worker counted the number of blemishes on each door. Most doors had no blemishes; a few had one; a very few had two; and so on. The average number was 0.5 per door. The distribution of blemishes followed the Poisson distribution. Out of 10,000 doors painted, about how many would have no blemishes

Answer:

The numbers of doors that will have no blemishes will be about 6065 doors

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of counts by the  worker of each blemishes on the door be (X)

The distribution of blemishes followed the Poisson distribution with parameter  \lambda =0.5 / door

The probability mass function on of a poisson distribution Is:

P(X=x) = \dfrac{e^{- \lambda } \lambda ^x}{x!}

P(X=x) = \dfrac{e^{- \ 0.5 }( 0.5)^ x}{x!}

The probability that no blemishes occur is :

P(X=0) = \dfrac{e^{- \ 0.5 }( 0.5)^ 0}{0!}

P(X=0) = 0.60653

P(X=0) = 0.6065

Assume the number of paints on the door by q = 10000

Hence; the number of doors that have no blemishes  is = qp

=10,000(0.6065)

= 6065

1.09g/mL to lbs/gal <br><br> Please show how to solve it too
GaryK [48]

For this case we must take into account the following conversions:

1 pound = 450 grams

1 mL = 0.00026 gallons

We apply the transformation of units to the following expression:

1.09\frac{g}{mL}

We have then:

(1.09\frac{g}{mL})(\frac{1}{450}\frac{lbs}{g}) = 0.0024\frac{lbs}{mL}

(0.0024\frac{lbs}{mL})(\frac{1}{0.00026}\frac{mL}{gal}) = 9.23\frac{lbs}{gal}

Answer:

Applying both transformations to the given expression we have:

9.23\frac{lbs}{gal}

A human body while sleeping generates about 300 BTUs of body heat per hour. If two people are sleeping in a bedroom that is 15 f
Katarina [22]
Given:
one person can produce:
E = <span>300 BTUs of body heat per hour
dimensions of the bedroom is:
V = </span><span>15 ft × 12 ft × 10 ft

required: is the energy per volume if 2 persons sleeps in 7 hours
let T be the total energy produce per volume

T = (</span><span>300 BTU per hour per person) ( 7 hours) ( 2 person) / ( </span> <span>15 ft × 12 ft × 10 ft)

T = 2.3 BTU / ft^3</span>

Find the absolute value of 3.1+(-6.3)
Sliva [168]

Answer:

3.2

Step-by-step explanation:

First, evalue what's inside of the absolute value:

3.1 + (-6.3) = -3.2

Now, since absolute value means the distance from the number to 0, the absolute value of -3.2 is the negation of -3.2:

|-3.2| = 3.2

Classify each characteristic according to whether it is true for an amoeba, a clock, or both.
Stells [14]

Answer:

Amoeba is a single celled eukaryotic organism, found in the water body. These organisms have a false feet called as pseudopodium. It helps in the locomotion and captures food from the external environment. The organism does not exhibit a well defined shape. It has organelles like nucleus and vacuoles surrounded by cytoplasm. The food being captured by psuedopodium is engulfed inside a vacuole. It reproduces by the process of asexual reproduction called as binary fission. The genetic material replicates by the mitotic division, then the cell divides into two equal daughter cells. The amoeba obtains energy from food, and it uses this energy to move, capture food and reproduce.

A clock is a non-living thing. That displays time. It has three needles or hands, the bigger hand displays hour, the small one displays minutes and the thin needle displays seconds. These hands or needles uses energy from a cell or battery.

Characteristics features of amoeba are as follows:

Uses energy

Has internal organization

Characteristics features of clock are as follows:

Uses energy

Contains cells

Lacks genetic material reproduces

Has a defined boundary

Has internal organization
