We are given the following information concerning the three production machines;

\begin{gathered} Of\text{ the total production;} \\ A=55\text{ \%}=0.55 \\ B=25\text{ \%}=0.25 \\ C=20\text{ \%}=0.20 \end{gathered}

Also, we are given the percentage of defective output as follows;

\begin{gathered} A=3.5\text{ \%}=0.035 \\ B=4.5\text{ \%}=0.045 \\ C=5.5\text{ \%}=0.055 \end{gathered}

Therefore, if an item is selected randomly, the probability that the item is defective would be;

\begin{gathered} P\lbrack defective\rbrack=(0.55\times0.035)+(0.25\times0.045)+(0.20\times0.055) \\ P\lbrack\text{defective\rbrack}=0.01925+0.01125+0.011 \\ P\lbrack\text{defective\rbrack}=0.0415 \end{gathered}

ANSWER:

The probability that the item is defective would be 0.0415

Answer: It represents the area of the two circular sides ("lids")

Explanation:

Imagine you made a cylinder out of 3 pieces of paper. The cylinder can be decomposed into two circular shapes (radius r) and one rectangular piece with two side lengths: one is "h", the other has to be long enough to go around each of the disks, so it has to be 2*pi*r long.

So the term 2*pi*r*h is the area of the rectangular piece and pi*r^2 is the area of each of the "lids" Since there are two of those, the term 2*pi*r^2 represents the area of the bottom and top lids.

Answer:

Slope (m) = \frac{y}{x} = \frac{2}{3} = 0.66666666666667

Step-by-step explanation:

0 = arctan (\frac{y}{x}) = 33.69006752598°

X = 4 – 1 = 3

Y = 4 – 2 = 2

Distance (d) = \sqrt{x^2+y^2}= \sqrt{13} =3.605551275464

Equation of the line:

y = 0.66666666666667x + 1.3333333333333

or

y=\frac{2}{3}x+\frac{4}{3}

When x=0, y = 1.3333333333333

When y=0, x = -2
