To find the specification limit such that only 0.5% of the bulbs will not exceed this limit we proceed as follows;
From the z-table, a z-score of -2.57 cuts off 0.005 in the left tail; given the formula for z-score
(x-μ)/σ
we shall have:
(x-5000)/50=-2.57
solving for x we get:
x-5000=-128.5
x=-128.5+5000
x=4871.50

Zach read a book for 10 minutes every weekend in the first month, 20 minutes in the second month, 40 minutes in the third month,
den301095 [7]
Zach time of reading every weekend forms a sequence with these terms: 10, 20, 40, 80. On the other hand, that of Victoria forms a sequence with terms: 35, 50, 65, 80. By keenly observing the sequences, Zach's sequence is a geometric sequence with a common ratio equal to 2 and Victoria's sequence is an arithmetic or linear sequence with a common difference of 15. Thus, the answer is letter B.

In circle A shown, BC || DE , mBC=58° and mDE=142°. Determine the measure of ZCFE . Show how you arrived at your answer.
AysviL [449]

Answer:

< CFE = 40°

Step-by-step explanation:

To better understand the solution, see attachment for the diagram.

Given:

BC parallel to DE

Measure of Arc BD = 58°

Measure of Arc DE = 142°

First step: Draw a diameter that passes through the centre of the circle and name it. In this case, the diameter is line ST.

The line ST divides the arc BD and arc DE into half.

That is:

Arc SC = 1/2(arc BC) =1/2(58)

Arc SC = 29°

Arc TE = 1/2(arc DE) =1/2(142)

Arc TE = 71°

Arc SC + Arc CE + Arc TE = 180° (Sum of angles in a semicircle

29° + Arc CE  + 71° = 180°

Arc CE + 100° = 180°

Arc CE = 180-100

Arc CE = 80°

Inscribed angle = 1/2(intercepted angle)

<CFE = 1/2(Arc CE )

<CFE = 1/2(80)

< CFE = 40°

sergejj [24]

Answer:

1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

two events need to happen: tutti frutti needs to be shown by first spinner and second spinner needs to show dish

probability of tutti frutti = 1/3

probability of dish = 1/2

probability of both events = 1/3 * 1 /2 = 1/6

Use the geometric probability distribution to solve the following problem. On the leeward side of the island of Oahu, in a small
Greeley [361]

Answer:

(a) \text{P(n)} = \text{p} \times \text{(1 - p)}^{n-1} ; \text{ n} = 1, 2, 3,....

(b) P(1) = 0.740, P(2) = 0.192, and P(3) = 0.050.

(c) The probability that n ≥ 4 is 0.018.

(d) The expected number of residents in the village you must meet before you encounter the first person of Hawaiian ancestry is 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that on the leeward side of the island of Oahu, in a small village, about 74% of the residents are of Hawaiian ancestry.

Let n = 1, 2, 3, … represent the number of people you must meet until you encounter the first person of Hawaiian ancestry in the village.

(a) We can observe that the above situation can be represented through the geometric distribution because the geometric distribution states that we will keep on going with the trials until we achieve our first success,

Here also, n represent the number of people you must meet until you encounter the first person of Hawaiian ancestry in the village.

So, the probability distribution of the geometric distribution is given by;

\text{P(n)} = \text{p} \times \text{(1 - p)}^{n-1} ; \text{ n} = 1, 2, 3,....

where, p = probability that the residents are of Hawaiian ancestry = 74%

(b) The probabilities that n = 1, n = 2, and n = 3 is given by;

\text{P(n)} = \text{p} \times \text{(1 - p)}^{n-1}

P(1) = \text{0.74} \times \text{(1 - 0.74)}^{1-1} = 0.74

P(2) = \text{0.74} \times \text{(1 - 0.74)}^{2-1} = 0.192

P(3) = \text{0.74} \times \text{(1 - 0.74)}^{3-1} = 0.050

(c) The probability that n ≥ 4 is given by = P(n ≥ 4)

     P(n ≥ 4) = 1 - P(n = 1) - P(n = 2) - P(n = 3)

                   = 1 - 0.74 - 0.192 - 0.050

                   = 0.018

(d) The expected number of residents in the village you must meet before you encounter the first person of Hawaiian ancestry is given by = E(n)

We know that the mean of the geometric distribution is given by;

           Mean = \dfrac{p}{1-p} = \dfrac{0.74}{1-0.74}

                     = \dfrac{0.74}{0.26} = 2.85 or 3 (approx).
