<h2>Answer with explanation:</h2>

According to the Binomial probability distribution ,

Let x be the binomial variable .

Then the probability of getting success in x trials , is given by :

P(X=x)=^nC_xp^x(1-p)^{n-x} , where n is the total number of trials or the sample size and p is the probability of getting success in each trial.

As per given , we have

n = 15

Let x be the number of defective components.

Probability of getting defective components = P = 0.03

The whole batch can be accepted if there are at most two defective components. .

The probability that the whole lot is accepted :

P(X\leq 2)=P(x=0)+P(x=1)+P(x=2)\\\\=^{15}C_0(0.03)^0(0.97)^{15}+^{15}C_1(0.03)^1(0.97)^{14}+^{15}C_2(0.03)^2(0.97)^{13}\\\\=(0.97)^{15}+(15)(0.03)^1(0.97)^{14}+\dfrac{15!}{2!13!}(0.03)^2(0.97)^{13}\\\\\approx0.63325+0.29378+0.06360=0.99063

∴The probability that the whole lot is accepted = 0.99063

For sample size n= 2500

Expected value : \mu=np= (2500)(0.03)=75

The expected value = 75

Standard deviation :  \sigma=\sqrt{np(1-p)}=\sqrt{2500(0.03)(0.97)}\approx8.53

The standard deviation = 8.53

$1000 is invested at the beginning of each year for 10 years. The rate of interest is fixed at 7.5% per annum. Interest is compo
Lemur [1.5K]
 <span>Presumably you are saying that the 7.5% is the actual real effective per annum rate since you did not include a compounding interval. Therefore if you let R = 1.075 which is 7.5%, X = $1,000 and F(n) be the balance after n years then you can figure it out by thinking about what happens. After one year, your balance is: 

F(1) = X * R 

After two years, your balance is: 

F(2) = ( F(1) +X ) * R 
.: 
F(2) = X * R^2 + X * R 

After three years, your balance is: 

F(3) = ( F(2) + X ) * R 
F(3) = X * R^3 + X * R^2 + X * R 

You can see that the general form is: 

F(n) = X * summation of R^k for k = 1 to n 

Applying the summation of a geometric sequence equation and you get: 

F(n) = X * ( ( 1 - R^(n+1) ) / ( 1 - R ) - 1 ) 

Therefore the total value of the investments after 10 years is: 

F(10) = $1,000 * ( ( 1 - 1.075^11 ) / ( 1 - 1.075 ) - 1 ) 
F(10) = $15,208.12 

If you blindly use the programs in the business calculators, you'll get the wrong answer of $14,147.09 because those calculators assume that the deposit is made at the end of the year not at the beginning. The equation is slightly easier to work out that way as the summation of the geometric sequence would be for k from 0 to n-1. That's one of the downfalls of relying on those calculators, you don't actually understand what's happening. 

Now the portion of that which is from the first $1,000 payment is $1,000 * 1.075^10 which is $2,061.03</span><span>

Graph: y = 3x - 5<br> Plz help
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

The equation, y=3x-5 is in y=mx+b format. The b, or -5 in this case, tells you what the y intercept is, or in this case, your starting point. This means your first point will be at (0,-5). The mx, or 3x in this case, tell us how much to move     up and how much to move sideways. 3x is equal to 3/1x and the 3/1 tells us the rise/run. Rise being how much to go up or down and run being how much to go to the left or right. So in 3x, the rise is 3 and the run is 1. So you will go 3 up on the y axis and 1 to the right on the x-axis. So your next point will be (1, -2) and the point after that will be (2, 1) and so on!

hope this helped!
