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
Answer:
rational
Step-by-step explanation:
irrational numbers can not be expressed as a fraction
All u need to do is subtract the bigger number from the smaller one
You need to solve for one variable in equation 1 and substitute it in equation 2 to solve.
Equation 1: x+y=24
x= number of 3 pt questions
y= number of 5 pt questions
24= Total number of questions
Equation 2: 3x+5y=100
100= Total point value possible on test
3x= point value of 3 pt questions
5y= point value of 5 pt questions
x+y=24
Subtract y from both sides
x=24-y
Substitute in equation 2:
3x+5y=100
3(24-y) +5y=100
72-3y+5y=100
72+2y=100
Subtract 72 from both sides
2y=28
Divide both sides by 2
y=14
Substitute y=14 back in to solve for x:
3x+5y=100
3x+5(14)=100
3x+70=100
Subtract 70 from both sides
3x=30
Divide both sides by 3
x=10
So there are 10 three point questions
There are 14 five point questions.
Hope this helped! :)
