|4x+3|=9+2x if we square both sides, we can eliminate the absolute values signs...

16x^2+24x+9=81+36x+4x^2 subtract the right side from both sides

12x^2-12x-72=0 now we can factor

12(x^2-x-6)=0

12(x^2+2x-3x-6)=0

12(x(x+2)-3(x+2)=0

12(x-3)(x+2)

So:

x= -2 or 3

Answer:

B. 120 units³

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the large white rectangle on the right represents the area of one of the larger surfaces of the prism. It appears to be (10 units) × (6 units), so has an area of 60 units². (You can count the squares there, if you like.)

That is adjacent to a gray area on the net that is 2 units wide, indicating that the prism is 2 units deep. Thus the volume is ...

(60 units²) × (2 units) = 120 units³

A food-packaging apparatus underfills 10% of the containers. Find the probability that for any particular 10 containers the numb

Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

a) $P(X = 1) = 0.38742$

b) $P(X = 3) = 0.05740$

c) $P(X = 9) = 0.00000$

d) $P(X \geq 5) = 0.00163$

Step-by-step explanation:

For each container, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it is undefilled, or it is not. This means that we can solve this problem using the binomial probability distribution.

Binomial probability distribution:

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

In which $C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinatios of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

And p is the probability of X happening.

In this problem

There are 10 containers, so $n = 10$ .

A food-packaging apparatus underfills 10% of the containers, so $p = 0.1$ .

a) This is P(X = 1)

$P(X = 1) = C_{10,1}.(0.1)^{1}.(0.9)^{9} = 0.38742$

b) This is P(X = 3)

$P(X = 3) = C_{10,3}.(0.1)^{3}.(0.9)^{7} = 0.05740$

c) This is P(X = 9)

$P(X = 9) = C_{10,9}.(0.1)^{9}.(0.9)^{1} = 0.00000$

d) This is $P(X \geq 5)$ .

Either the number is lesser than five, or it is five or larger. The sum of the probabilities of each event is decimal 1. So:

$P(X < 5) + P(X \geq 5) = 1$

$P(X \geq 5) = 1 - P(X < 5)$

In which

$P(X < 5) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4)$

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 0) = C_{10,0}.(0.1)^{0}.(0.9)^{10} = 0.34868$

$P(X = 1) = C_{10,1}.(0.1)^{1}.(0.9)^{9} = 0.38742$

$P(X = 2) = C_{10,2}.(0.1)^{2}.(0.9)^{8} = 0.1937$

$P(X = 3) = C_{10,3}.(0.1)^{3}.(0.9)^{7} = 0.05740$

$P(X = 4) = C_{10,4}.(0.1)^{1}.(0.9)^{9} = 0.38742$

$P(X < 5) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) = 0.34868 + 0.38742 + 0.19371 + 0.05740 + 0.01116 = 0.99837$

Finally

$P(X \geq 5) = 1 - P(X < 5) = 1 - 0.99837 = 0.00163$
