Answer:

x = 25/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Because of the known similarity of the triangles, we know that

10 x

----- = ----

16 10

Cross-multiplying, we get 16x = 100, and thus x = 100/16 = 50/8 = 25/4

x = 25/4

Of the coffee makers sold in an appliance store, 4.0% have either a faulty switch or a defective cord, 2.5% have a faulty swi

lukranit [14]

Answer: Hence, Probability that a coffee maker will have a defective cord is 0.376=37.6%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Let A be the event of getting a faulty switch.

Let B be the event of getting a defective cord.

Here, P(A∪B) = 4% = 0.04

P(A∩B) = 0.1% = 0.001

P(A) = 2.5% = 0.025

We need to find P(B):

As we know that

$P(A\cup B)=P(A)+P(B)-P(A\cap B)\\\\0.04=P(A)+0.025-0.001\\\\0.04=P(A)+0.024\\\\P(A)=0.04-0.024=0.376$

Hence, Probability that a coffee maker will have a defective cord is 0.376=37.6%.
