Captain Two-Pegs is going to load his pirate ship with cannons. He has room for 10 cannons. He has allotted for 111 pounds of ca

nnon on his ship. He can choose from 9-pound cannons (the variable n) or 12-pound cannons (the variable t). Which equations would be a constraint to Captain Two-Pegs maximizing his cannon load?
(a) n - t = 10
(b) n = 10 + t
(c) 9n = 111 - 12t
(d) 9n = 111 + 12t

Answer:

C. 9n=111-12t

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume that,

n is the number of 9-pound cannons and,

t is the number of 12-pound canons.

As captain Two-Pegs has room for 10 cannons, so

n+t=10 ---------------------------1

He has allotted for 111 pounds of cannon on his ship, so

9n+12t=111    -------------------2

i.e 9n=111-12t

Therefore, option 3 is the equations that would be a constraint to Captain Two-Pegs maximizing his cannon load.

A package of 10 batteries is checked to determine if there are any dead batteries. Four batteries are checked. If one or more ar
frutty [35]

Answer:

There is a probability of 76% of not selling the package if there are actually three dead batteries in the package.

Step-by-step explanation:

With a 10-units package of batteries with 3 dead batteries, the sampling can be modeled as a binomial random variable with:

  • n=4 (the amount of batteries picked for the sample).
  • p=3/10=0.3 (the proportion of dead batteries).
  • k≥1 (the amount of dead batteries in the sample needed to not sell the package).

The probability of having k dead batteries in the sample is:

P(x=k) = \dbinom{n}{k} p^{k}q^{n-k}

Then, the probability of having one or more dead batteries in the sample (k≥1) is:

P(x\geq1)=1-P(x=0)\\\\\\P(x=0) = \dbinom{4}{0} p^{0}q^{4}=1*1*0.7^4=0.2401\\\\\\P(x\geq1)=1-0.2401=0.7599\approx0.76

Niobium-91 has a half-life of 680 years. After 2,040 years, how much niobium-91 will remain from a 300. 0-g sample? 3 g 18. 75 g
alekssr [168]

Answer:

Amount of Niobium-91 initially

= 300/91 =3.2967mol

2040 years = 3 ×680 = 3 half-lives

therefore, amount left = 0.4121mol

mass of Niobium-91 remaining = 0.4121 ×91 =37.5g
