A technician is testing light bulbs to determine the number of defective bulbs. The technician records the table below to show t

he results. Result of Light Bulb Test Number of Bulbs Tested 14 28 84 336 Number of Defective Bulbs Found 1 2 6 ? The technician expects to find 24 defective bulbs when 336 are tested. Which statement explains whether the technician’s reasoning is correct, based on the information in the table? The reasoning is correct. The ratio of number of bulbs tested to defective bulbs is always 14 to 1. The reasoning is correct. The number of defective bulbs doubles, then triples, so the next number should be four times larger, regardless of the number of bulbs tested. The reasoning is not correct because the technician should have found the difference between 336 and 84, then divided the result by 6.

<h3>Answer:</h3>

The reasoning is correct. The ratio of number of bulbs tested to defective bulbs is always 14 to 1.

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

We generally expect industrial processes to produce defects at about the same rate, meaning the proportion of defective product is generally considered to be a constant. Here, the proportion of defective bulbs is ...

... 1/14 = 2/28 = 6/84

so we expect it will be also 24/336. That is, the ratio of the number of bulbs tested to defective bulbs is expected to remain constant at about 14.

Emily is making a meal for her family. She uses coconut milk for the dessert she is making.
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

576 cm^3

Step-by-step explanation:

Express this volume formula as V = π r^2 h, where the " ^ " symbol indicates exponentiation.  Substitute 4 for r (this is half the diameter), 12 cm for h, and 3 for π:  V = 3*(4)^2*12 cm^3, or V = 576 cm^3.

Find the slope of the line that passes through (3, 7) and (6, 8).
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

Slope = 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Step 1: Define general form of equation of line</em>

An equation of a straight line on two-dimensional plane could be represented in form of: y = Mx + b, with M is slope and b is y-intercept

<em>Step 2: Set up the system to solve for slope M of equation of line</em>

That equation passes 2 points, which are represented in form of (x, y), (3, 7) and (6, 8).

Substitute these values of x and y into the original equation in step 1:

7 = 3M + b

8 = 6M + b

<em>Step 3: Solve the system of equations in step 2 for M</em>

Subtract 1st equation from 2nd equation:

8 - 7 = 6M - 3M + b - b

Simplify both sides:

1 = 3M

Divide both sides by 3:

=> M = 1/3

Hope this helps!
