Answer:

a. 1/10 or 10%

b. 1/2 or 50%

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the combination of machines 1, 2 and 3 produce 100% of the total output when added together, then the probability of choosing a bolt at random that is defective is: 5 + 2 + 3 = 10% out of 100% or 10/100, which is 1/10 or 10%.

If the bolt that is choosen at random is defective, than the probability that it came from machine 1 is 5/10 or 1/2 which is also 50%.

Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

Newspaper

Step-by-step explanation:

The level or degree of significance of independent variables used in a multiple regression analysis is usually measured by comparing the values of the slope Coefficient of each independent variable. From the result of the multiple regression analysis attached. The slope Coefficient of each independent variable is :

Television = 2.38 ; Newspaper = 1.45 and Mail = 1.82.

This slope values are the rate at which the dependent variable changes per unit increase in each of the independent variable.

Newapaper has the least slope Coefficient value of the 3 independent variables and hence will have the least significant effect on the value of revenue.

Are these 3 equations equal 2.02, 0.02, 0.03 ? Show me 3 decimals that are equivalent
andriy [413]
No those decimals are not equal because if you put them into fractuons it would be this :

2 2/100
2/100
3/100
which do not equal the same thing

Equal decimals are

0.3
0.30
0.300

Because
0.3= 3/10
0.30= 30/100 = 3/10
0.300= 300/1000 = 3/10

They all end up being 3/10 in fraction form...

Deena drinks 2 cups of milk per day. She buys 5 quarts of milk. How many days will her 5 quarts of milk last?
Luden [163]

Answer:

10 days

from table

1 cup = 0.25 quarts

Hence she drinks

0.5quarts per day

Hence if 0.5quarts  last for 1 day

5quarts  will last x days

cross multiply

0.5x= 5*1

x= 5/0.5

x=10 days
