LabTech is a company that manufactures microscopes and other laboratory instruments . On occasion, one of the microscopes is def

Scrat [10]

Answer:

0.0782 (7.82%)

Step-by-step explanation:

The required probability will be found by using the Binomial Distribution which fits the case of n independent events each with a probability of success equal to p with k successes.

The PMF (Probability Mass Function) is

$f(k,n,p)=\binom{n}{k}p^kq^{n-k}$

Where $q = 1-p$

LabTech states that the probability that a microscope is defective is 0.17%, p=0.0017, q=0.9983. We need to know the probability that k=1 microscope is defective out of a set of n=50 of them. We now apply the formula

$f(1,50,0.0017)=\binom{50}{1}0.0017^10.9983^{49}=0,0782$

Which means that there is a 7.82% of probability to get 1 defective microscope out of the first 50

Which shows how the distributive property can be used to evaluate 7x8 4/5?

Yuri [45]

Answer:

61 3/5

Step-by-step explanation:

we realize that 8 4/5 can be written as [8 + (4/5)]

hence 7 x 8 4/5

= 7 x [8 + (4/5)]

= 7 [8 + (4/5)] (use the distributive property, see attached for reference)

= 7(8) + 7(4/5)

= 56 + 28/5 (convert 28/5 into mixed fraction)

= 56 + 5 3/5

= 61 3/5 (answer)

Alexis buys groceries using her credit card her card has an APR of 19.99% and she must pay at least 5% of the balance at the end

avanturin [10]

Answer:

The answer is that she would pay $65.56 in finance charges at the end of the month.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: APR = 19.99%

Carry Over Balance: $398.97

The APR or Annual Percentage Rate, is calculated daily. You will need to get the daily periodic rate, or DPR, so divide the APR by 365:

19.99% = .1999

.1999 / 365 = .005477 (This is the Approximate DPR, rounded up to .005477)

To get the finance charge, multiply the average daily balance by the DPR and then by 30 days:

398.97 * .005477 * 30 = $65.56 finance charge for this carry over balance, at the end of the month. This assumes that the balance is the average daily balance.

Hope this helps!! Have a great day!

lakkis [162]

Answer:

a) $\bar X \sim N(100,\frac{6}{\sqrt{25}}=1.2)$

$\mu_{\bar X}=100$ $\sigma^2_{\bar X}=1$

b) $P(\bar X >101)=1-P(\bar X$

c) $P(\bar X$

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".

The central limit theorem states that "if we have a population with mean μ and standard deviation σ and take sufficiently large random samples from the population with replacement, then the distribution of the sample means will be approximately normally distributed. This will hold true regardless of whether the source population is normal or skewed, provided the sample size is sufficiently large".

The complement rule is a theorem that provides a connection between the probability of an event and the probability of the complement of the event. Lat A the event of interest and A' the complement. The rule is defined by: $P(A)+P(A') =1$
