A product is made up of three parts that act independently of each other. If any of the parts is defective, the product is defec

tive. Part one is defective 5% of the time, part two is defective 10% of the time, and part three is defective 15% of the time. Find the probability of a defective product.

Answer: Probability of defective product is 0.00075.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Probability of getting defective in part one = 5%

Probability of getting defective in part two = 10%

Probability of getting defective in part three = 15%

Since they are independent of each other.

So, Probability of a defective product is given by

$P(One)\times P(Two)\times P(Three)\\\\=0.05\times 0.10\times 0.15\\\\=0.00075$

Hence, Probability of defective product is 0.00075.

Answer:

The probability that a product is defective is 0.2733.

Step-by-step explanation:

A product consists of 3 parts. If any one of the part is defective the whole product is considered as defective.

The probability of the 3 parts being defective are:

P (Part 1 is defective) = 0.05

P (part 2 is defective) = 0.10 P (part 3 is defective) = 0.15

Compute the probability that a product is defective as follows:

P (Defective product) = 1 - P (non-defective product)

= 1 - P (None of the 3 parts are defective)

= 1 - P (Part 1 not defective) × P (Part 2 not defective) × P (Part 1 not defective)

$=1-[(1-0.05)\times(1-0.10)\times (1-0.15)]\\=1-[0.95\times0.90\times0.85]\\=1-0.72675\\=0.27325\\\approx0.2733$

Thus, the probability that a product is defective is 0.2733.

I need help with my math homework. The questions is: Find all solutions of the equation in the interval [0,2π).

Answer:

$\frac{7\pi}{24}$ and $\frac{31\pi}{24}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\sqrt{3} \tan(x-\frac{\pi}{8})-1=0$

Let's first isolate the trig function.

Add 1 one on both sides:

$\sqrt{3} \tan(x-\frac{\pi}{8})=1$

Divide both sides by $\sqrt{3}$ :

$\tan(x-\frac{\pi}{8})=\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}$

Now recall $\tan(u)=\frac{\sin(u)}{\cos(u)}$ .

$\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}=\frac{\frac{1}{2}}{\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}}$

or

$\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}=\frac{-\frac{1}{2}}{-\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}}$

The first ratio I have can be found using $\frac{\pi}{6}$ in the first rotation of the unit circle.

The second ratio I have can be found using $\frac{7\pi}{6}$ you can see this is on the same line as the $\frac{\pi}{6}$ so you could write $\frac{7\pi}{6}$ as $\frac{\pi}{6}+\pi$ .

So this means the following:

$\tan(x-\frac{\pi}{8})=\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}$

is true when $x-\frac{\pi}{8}=\frac{\pi}{6}+n \pi$

where $n$ is integer.

Integers are the set containing {..,-3,-2,-1,0,1,2,3,...}.

So now we have a linear equation to solve:

$x-\frac{\pi}{8}=\frac{\pi}{6}+n \pi$

Add $\frac{\pi}{8}$ on both sides:

$x=\frac{\pi}{6}+\frac{\pi}{8}+n \pi$

Find common denominator between the first two terms on the right.

That is 24.

$x=\frac{4\pi}{24}+\frac{3\pi}{24}+n \pi$

$x=\frac{7\pi}{24}+n \pi$ (So this is for all the solutions.)

Now I just notice that it said find all the solutions in the interval $[0,2\pi)$ .

So if $\sqrt{3} \tan(x-\frac{\pi}{8})-1=0$ and we let $u=x-\frac{\pi}{8}$ , then solving for $x$ gives us:

$u+\frac{\pi}{8}=x$ ( I just added $\frac{\pi}{8}$ on both sides.)

So recall $0\le x$ .

Then $0 \le u+\frac{\pi}{8}$ .

Subtract $\frac{\pi}{8}$ on both sides:

$-\frac{\pi}{8}\le u$

Simplify:

$-\frac{\pi}{8}\le u$

$-\frac{\pi}{8}\le u$

So we want to find solutions to:

$\tan(u)=\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}$ with the condition:

$-\frac{\pi}{8}\le u$

That's just at $\frac{\pi}{6}$ and $\frac{7\pi}{6}$

So now adding $\frac{\pi}{8}$ to both gives us the solutions to:

$\tan(x-\frac{\pi}{8})=\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}$ in the interval:

$0\le x$ .

The solutions we are looking for are:

$\frac{\pi}{6}+\frac{\pi}{8}$ and $\frac{7\pi}{6}+\frac{\pi}{8}$

Let's simplifying:

$(\frac{1}{6}+\frac{1}{8})\pi$ and $(\frac{7}{6}+\frac{1}{8})\pi$

$\frac{7}{24}\pi$ and $\frac{31}{24}\pi$

$\frac{7\pi}{24}$ and $\frac{31\pi}{24}$
