dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

P(X 0.9619

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information;

the probability of getting returned p = 0.1

If eight rings are sold today, what is the probability that fewer than three will be returned;

According to binomial distribution

Binomial distribution is the probability of success or failure of an outcome of an experiment under observation which is usually repeated several trials. Binomial experiments are random experiment with fixed number of repeated experiment. If we cannot predict before head, the outcome of an experiment , the experiment is called a random experiment.

So , using binomial distribution to determine the probability that fewer than three will be returned;

i.e

P(X \sum_{x=0}^{2}\binom{8}{x}(0.1)^{x}(1-0.1)^{8-x}

P(X 0.9619

1. In a batch of 10 items, we wish to extract a sample of 3 without replacement. How many
svetlana [45]

Answer:

1) 120

2) E (Z) = 12 and Variance of Z = 90

a) 5 liters

Step-by-step explanation:

1. We can find this by suing combinations.

Here n= 10 and r= 3 so n C r

= 10 C 3= 120

2. E(X) = 8 and E(Y) = 3

Z = 2X - 3Y +5

E(Z ) = 2 E (X) - 3(E)(Y) +5   ( applying property for mean)

       = 2(8) - 3(3)+ 5 = 16+5-9= 21-9= 12

V(X) = 9 and V(Y) = 6.

V(Z) = E(Z )²-  V(X) *V(Y)   (applying property for Variance for two variables )

        = 144- 54= 90

3. 55 liters contain adulterated milk in 7: 4.

So it contains 4/ 11*55= 20 liters of water

But we want to make it a ratio of 7:6

the water will be 6/13 *55= 25.38 when rounded gives 25 liters of water

So 25- 20 = 5 liters must be added to make it a ratio of 7:6

In exercises 1 and 2, find m<1 and m<2. Tell which theorem you used in each case.
solniwko [45]

Answer:

m∠2 = 78°

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given picture,

lines 'm' and 'n' are the parallel lines and line 't' is the transverse line.

∠1 and angle with the measure of 78° are corresponding angles.

Therefore, m∠1 = 78°

m∠1 = m∠2 [Vertical angles are equal]

m∠2 = 78°

Automobile repair costs continue to rise with the average cost now at $367 per repair (U.S. News & World Report website, Jan
tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

\mu = 367

\sigma = 88

a. What is the probability that the cost will be more than $450?

We are supposed to find P(x > 450)

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

z=\frac{450-367}{88}

z=0.9431

Refer the z table :

P(z<0.9431)=0.8264

P(z> 0.9431)=1-P(z<0.9431)=1- 0.8264= 0.1736

Hence the probability that the cost will be more than $450 is 0.1736

b)What is the probability that the cost will be less than $250?

We are supposed to find P(x<250)

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

z=\frac{250-367}{88}

z=-1.3295

Refer the z table :

P(z<-1.3295)=0.0934

Hence the probability that the cost will be less than $250 is 0.0934

c)What is the probability that the cost will be between $250 and $450?

P(250<z<450)=P(z<450)-P(z<250) = 0.8264 - 0.0934 =0.733

Hence the probability that the cost will be between $250 and $450 is 0.733

d)  If the cost for your car repair is in the lower 5% of automobile repair charges, what is your cost?

p = 0.05

refer the z table

z = -1.65

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

-1.65=\frac{x-367}{88}

-1.65 \times 88=x-367

-145.2+367=x

221.8=x

Hence If the cost for your car repair is in the lower 5% of automobile repair charges, so, cost is $221.8

Every weekday, Mr. Jones bikes from his home to his job. Sometimes he rides along two roads, the long route that is shown by the
notka56 [123]

Answer:

(A)6 kilometers

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we determine the value of a using Pythagoras Theorem.

Hypotenuse^2=Opposite^2+Adjacent^2\\17^2=a^2+15^2\\a^2=17^2-15^2\\a^2=289-225\\a^2=64\\a^2=8^2\\a=8$ km

Therefore:

Distance along the long route = 8 + 15 =23 km

Distance along the shortcut =17 km

Difference =23-17 =6km

Therefore, Mr. Jones bikes 6km less when he takes the shortcut instead of the long route.
