Check the picture below

the angle is in degrees, thus, when taking the sine, make sure your calculator is in Degree mode

Components of a certain type are shipped to a supplier in batches of ten. Suppose that 50% of all such batches contain no defect

ad-work [718]

Answer:

a) P (0 defective component) = 0.5

P( 1 defective component ) = 0.35

P( 2 defective component ) = 0.15

b) P( 0 ) = 0

p ( 1 ) = 1

p ( 2 ) = 0.33

Step-by-step explanation:

p( no defective ) = 0.5

p( 1 is defective ) = 0.35

p( 2 is defective ) = 0.15

Given that 2 components are selected at random

<u>a) Given that neither component is defective </u>

Probability of 0 defective component = 0.5

P( 1 defective component ) = 0.35

P( 2 defective component ) = 0.15

<u>b) Given that one of the two tested component is defective </u>

P( 0 defective ) = 0

P( 1 defective ) = P ( $\frac{x=1}{x\geq 1}$ ) = p( x = 1 ) / 1 - P ( x = 0 )

= ( 0.5 )^1 ( 0.5 )^0 / 1 - ( 0.5)^0 (0.5)^1

= 0.5 * 1 / 1 - 0.5 = 0.5 / 0.5 = 1

p ( 2 defective ) = p( x = 3 ) / 1 - P ( x = 0 )

= ( 0.5 )^2 ( 0.5 )^0 / 1 - ( 0.5)^0 (0.5)^2

= 0.25 / 0.75 = 0.33

Suppose f(x) = x^2 and

SpyIntel [72]

Given:

The two functions are:

$f(x)=x^2$

$g(x)=\left(\dfrac{1}{3}x\right)^2$

To find:

The statement that best compares the graph of g(x) with the graph of f(x).

Solution:

The horizontal stretch is defined as:

$g(x)=f(kx)$ ...(i)

If $0$ , the function f(x) is horizontally stretched by factor $\dfrac{1}{k}$ .

If $k>1$ , the function f(x) is horizontally compressed by factor $\dfrac{1}{k}$ .

We have,

$f(x)=x^2$

$g(x)=\left(\dfrac{1}{3}x\right)^2$

Using these functions, we get

$g(x)=f\left(\dfrac{1}{3}x\right)$ ...(ii)

On comparing (i) and (ii), we get

$k=\dfrac{1}{3}$

Since $0$ , the function f(x) is horizontally stretched by factor $\dfrac{1}{\frac{1}{3}}=3$ .

Hence, the correct option is D.

Pauley graphs the change in temperature of a glass of hot tea over time. He sees that the function appears to decrease quickly a

denpristay [2]

As the liquid gets closer to the same temperature as the room, it cools down slower. If you put an glass of hot cocoa in a really cold room, it'll decrease really fast until it's around the same temperature as the room

I was at the store, and saw two sizes of avocados being sold. The smaller size sold for $0.92 each. For what prices would the la

Firdavs [7]

Answer:

Large avocados should cost $ 1.83 or less to be a good deal.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there are two types of avocado in the store, some small at $ 0.92 and others larger, to determine at what price large avocados would be a good deal, an equivalence must be established in this regard:

Thus, if two small avocados are equal to one large, buying two small avocados at $ 0.92 the total price would be $ 1.84. Therefore, any large avocado that sells for less than $ 1.84 would be a good deal. Thus, large avocados should cost $ 1.83 or less to be a good deal.

Look at this system of equations. How can the system be changed so that the two equations have equal x-coefficients?

Volgvan

I believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is option A. The <span>system can be changed so that the two equations have equal x-coefficients by multiplying </span><span>both sides of the top equation by 2 resulting to 6x + 4y = 24. Hope this answers the question.</span>
