Answer:

A batch of 20 semiconductor chips is inspected by choosing a sample of 3 chips. Assume 10 of the chips do not conform to customer requirements.

a) Number of different samples = 20C3 =  \frac{20!}{3!(17!)} =1140

b) 2 good and one bad chip

Number of samples = 10C2 * 10C1 = 45 * 10 =450

c) 2 good 1 bad + 1 good 2 bad + 3 bad

Number of samples = 10C2 * 10C1 + 10C1 * 10C2 + 10C3

= 450+450+120=1020

Aa if #2 wasn't confusing enough, laura is now trying to come up with a number where three less than 8 times the number is equal
umka21 [38]

Answer: Laura cannot find the number, as explained below.


Explanation:


1) The question is aimed to determine the number that Laura is trying to come up with.


Such question is solved by stating an algebraic equation from the word statement, which is done step by step.


2) Using the name x for the unknown, the expression "three less than 8 times the number" is translated to: 8x - 3


3) The expression "half of 16 times the number after it was increased by 1" is translated to: (1/2) (16x + 1)


4) Finally, since they are equal, you can set the equation:


8x - 3 =  (1/2) (16x + 1)


5) And solve for x in this way:


i) Distributive property:

8x - 3 = 8x + 1/2


ii) At this stage you can see that the both 8x terms (on the left and on the right) cancel each other, which leads to the impossibility to determine the value of the unknown:

-3 = 1/2 which is alwasy false, meaning that the equation has no solution.

Rate at which risk of down syndrome is changing is approximated by function r(x) = 0.004641x2 − 0.3012x + 4.9 (20 ≤ x ≤ 45) wher
romanna [79]
The rate of change of the risk of down syndrome (in percentage of births per year) is
r(x) = 0.004641x² - 0.3012x + 4.9,   20≤ x ≤ 45
where
x = maternal age at delivery.

The function giving risk as a percentage of births when maternal age is x is the integral of r(x). That is,
f(x) = 0.001547x³ - 0.1506x² +4.9x + c

When x = 30, f = 0.14%. Therefore
0.001547(30³) - 0.1506(30²) + 4.9(30) + c = 0.14 
41.769 - 135.54 + 147 + c = 0.14
c = -53.089

Answer:
f(x) = 0.001547x³ - 0.1506x² + 4.9x - 53.089,   20 ≤ x ≤ 45

The function is graphed as shown below.

A scientist wishes to estimate the mean breaking strength of a certain type of steel rod within 3.0 psi with 95% confidence. Bas
yaroslaw [1]

Answer:97 rods

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of steel rods for 95% confidence level

n=\left ( \frac{Z_\frac{\alpha }{2}\times \hat{\sigma }}{E} \right )^2

Z_\frac{\alpha }{2}=1.96

E=3

\hat{\sigma }=15

Substituting values

n=\left ( \frac{1.96\times 15}{3}\right )^2

n=96.04\approx 97

Thus 97 rods is tested

Brett plays an acoustic guitar at an event for $500. At the end of the event, the sponsor tips him 20%. How much does Brett make
Blababa [14]
Brett makes $510

First you’ll have to multiply $500 by 0.020 (you have to convert 20%) and you’ll get 10. You then add the 10 to 500 to get $510

The ground-state wave function for a particle confined to a one-dimensional box of length L is Ψ=(2/L)^1/2 Sin(πx/L). Suppose th
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

(a) 4.98x10⁻⁵

(b) 7.89x10⁻⁶

(c) 1.89x10⁻⁴

(d) 0.5

(e) 2.9x10⁻²  

Step-by-step explanation:  

The probability (P) to find the particle is given by:

P=\int_{x_{1}}^{x_{2}}(\Psi\cdot \Psi) dx = \int_{x_{1}}^{x_{2}} ((2/L)^{1/2} Sin(\pi x/L))^{2}dx  

P = \int_{x_{1}}^{x_{2}} (2/L) Sin^{2}(\pi x/L)dx     (1)

The solution of the intregral of equation (1) is:

P=\frac{2}{L} [\frac{X}{2} - \frac{Sin(2\pi x/L)}{4\pi /L}]|_{x_{1}}^{x_{2}}  

(a) The probability to find the particle between x = 4.95 nm and 5.05 nm is:

P=\frac{2}{100} [\frac{X}{2} - \frac{Sin(2\pi x/100)}{4\pi /100}]|_{4.95}^{5.05} = 4.98 \cdot 10^{-5}    

(b) The probability to find the particle between x = 1.95 nm and 2.05 nm is:

P=\frac{2}{100} [\frac{X}{2} - \frac{Sin(2\pi x/100)}{4\pi /100}]|_{1.95}^{2.05} = 7.89 \cdot 10^{-6}  

(c) The probability to find the particle between x = 9.90 nm and 10.00 nm is:

P=\frac{2}{100} [\frac{X}{2} - \frac{Sin(2\pi x/100)}{4\pi /100}]|_{9.90}^{10.00} = 1.89 \cdot 10^{-4}    

(d) The probability to find the particle in the right half of the box, that is to say, between x = 0 nm and 50 nm is:

P=\frac{2}{100} [\frac{X}{2} - \frac{Sin(2\pi x/100)}{4\pi /100}]|_{0}^{50.00} = 0.5

(e) The probability to find the particle in the central third of the box, that is to say, between x = 0 nm and 100/6 nm is:

P=\frac{2}{100} [\frac{X}{2} - \frac{Sin(2\pi x/100)}{4\pi /100}]|_{0}^{16.7} = 2.9 \cdot 10^{-2}

I hope it helps you!
