A company makes rubber rafts. 12% of them develop cracks within the first month of operation. 27 new rafts are randomly sampled

and tested, by being used for one month, under standardized conditions that mimic typical operating conditions. Calculate the probability that the number of tested rafts that develop cracks is no more than 3. Round your answer to four decimal places.

The probability that the number of tested rafts that develop cracks is no more than 3 is <u>.00006</u>.

The true proportion, p for the population is given to 0.12.

Thus, the mean, μ, for the sample = np = 27*0.12 = 3.24.

The sample size, n, given to us is 27.

Thus, the standard deviation, s, for the sample can be calculated using the formula, s = √{p(1 - p)}/n.

s = √{0.12(1 - 0.12)}/27 = √0.003911 = 0.0625389.

We are asked to calculate the probability that the number of tested rafts that develop cracks is no more than 3, that is, we need to calculate P(X ≤3).

P(X ≤ 3)

= P(Z ≤ {(3 - 3.24)/0.0625389) {Using the formula z = (x - μ)/s}

= P(Z ≤ -3.8376114706)

= .00006 {From table}.

Thus, the probability that the number of tested rafts that develop cracks is no more than 3 is <u>.00006</u>.

Find out if the 3 positions are on the same line or not (3,2,0) (1, -1,2) (5,5, 2)
sattari [20]

Answer:

The three positions are not on the same line.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have three points: A:(3,2,0),  B:(1,-1,2) and C:(5,5,2).

Let's build a vector that goes from one point to another; that vector will be the director of a line (if we draw a vector that goes from A to B, that vector will be the direction of the line that pass by A and B because it does not change). In order to build that vector, let's subtract B from A:

A-B=(3,2,0)-(1,-1,2)=(2,3,-2)

The equation of a line is:

p=p_0+rt

Where p is every singular point of the line, p_0 is a particular point of the line (any that we are sure that it is on the line), r is the director vector and t is the independent variable.

Now we have the director vector: (2,3,-2), and we can verify that A and B are on the line:

p=p_0+(2,3,-2)t

Because there is a value for t that satisfies both A and B: If we do p_0=(3,2,0) and t=0, we are going to obtain the point p=A; and if we do t=-1, we are going to obtain p=B. Let's see that:

p=(3,2,0)+(2,3,-2)*0=(3,2,0)\\p=A\\p=(3,2,0)+(2,3,-2)*-1=(1,-1,2)\\p=B\\

If C is also in the same line, C must accomplish the equation: p=(3,2,0)+(2,3,-2)t, so:

C=(5,5,2)=(3,2,0)+(2,3,-2)t

Let's simplify the equation writing the parametric equation, which is just to write the equation for each dimension:

5=3+2t\\5=2-3t\\2=-2t\\

You can verify that there is not a value of t that satisfies all three equations, so, the point C is not on the same line as A and B; which means that A, B and C are not on the same line.

Find the zero of the following function: f(×)=(×-1)/(×-3)​
nlexa [21]

Answer:

\boxed{\sf \ \ x = 1 \ \ }

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello,

First of all we need to take x different from 3 as dividing by 0 is not allowed

then for x real different from 3

f(x)=0\\\\ \dfrac{x-1}{x-3}=0\\\\ x-1 = 0\\\\ x = 1

hope this helps
