The probability that both are defective when a customer selects 2 cartridges at random from the shelf will be 0.00766.

<h3>What is probability?</h3>

The area of mathematics known as probability studies potential outcomes of events as well as their relative probabilities and distributions. Simply put, probability is the likelihood that something will occur. When we don't know how an event will turn out, we can discuss the likelihood or likelihood of various outcomes. Statistics is the study of events that follow a probability distribution.

Here,

The probability of choosing defective cartridge=7/80

So, the probability of choosing 2 defective cartridge=(7/80)²

=0.00765625

=0.00766

When a customer randomly chooses two cartridges from the shelf, the likelihood that both are flawed is 0.00766.

Endpoint: (9,-10), midpoint: (4,8)
Alika [10]

Answer:

( -1 , 26)

Step-by-step explanation:

So since you need to find the other endpoint, you would follow these steps:

1.) 4 = \frac{9 + x}{2\\}

2.) 8 = 9 + x  ( you just multiplied the 2 to the 4 to get 8)

3.) -1 = x  (just solve it like a regular equation, so just subtract 9 on both sides                  to get rid of it and that leaves you with -1 = x)

You took the x values of both points and put them in the equation.

And its the same for y

1.) 8 = \frac{-10 + y}{2}

2.) 16 = -10 + y

3.) 26 = y   (you added the 10 on both sides because the 10 was negative and that took the 10 out and so it left you with 26 = y)
