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.

H function is even, odd, or neither.<br> b. g(x) = x² - 2<br> Is it odd or even
o-na [289]

g(x) = x^2 - 2 \text{ is even function }

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that,

g(x) = x^2 - 2

We have to find whether the above function is odd or even

If a function is: y = f(x)

If f(-x) = f(x), the function is even

If f(-x) = - f(x), the function is odd

Which is,

\mathrm{Even\:Function:\:\:A\:function\:is\:even\:if\:}f\left(-x\right)=f\left(x\right)\mathrm{\:for\:all\:}x\in \mathbb{R}\\\\\mathrm{Odd\:Function:\:\:A\:function\:is\:odd\:if\:}f\left(-x\right)=-f\left(x\right)\mathrm{\:for\:all\:}x\in \mathbb{R}

From given,

g(x) = x^2 - 2

Replace x with -x

g(-x) = (-x)^2 - 2\\\\g(-x) = x^2 - 2

Therefore,

g(x) = g(-x)

Thus the function g(x) is even

Answer:

6 square root of 2

Step-by-step explanation:

sin theta = opposite / hypotenuse

sin 45 = 6/x

Multiply by x

x sin 45 = 6

Divide by sin 45

x sin 45/ sin 45 = 6 / sin 45

x = 6/ sin 45

x = 6/ (1/sqrt(2))

x = 6 sqrt(2)

AfilCa [17]

Answer:

19968

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the distributive property-

To “distribute” means to divide something or give a share or part of something. According to the distributive property, multiplying the sum of two or more addends by a number will give the same result as multiplying each addend individually by the number and then adding the products together.
