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.

consider this expression 7+3.4+2 what movements does this represent for Cecil walking on his tightrope? draw a diagram to show h
Lina20 [59]

Ok let me start it from here.

you are studying about properties of natural numbers or whole number or may be integers.

So , In this  Question you have to follow property of addition of integers.

⇒7+3=( You are at the point 7 on the number line or on the tight rope , you are moving (+3) on the right direction.) So you will reach at 7+1+1+1=10

⇒4+2=( You are at the point 4 on the number line or on the tight rope , you are moving (+2) on the right direction.) So you will reach at 4+1+1=6

In first case Cecil has taken total walk of 10 units and in second case Cecil has taken a walk of 10 units.

An oak tree is 6 meters tall. A bird is standing on the ground 8 meters from the tree. If the bird flies directly to the top of
DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

10 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

To obtain how far wthe bird will need to fly directly, we use Pythagoras rule to calculate the hypotenus of the triangle :

Hypotenus, h = sqrt(opposite² + adjacent²)

h = sqrt(6² + 8²)

h = sqrt(36 + 64)

h = sqrt100)

h = 10m

Hans and Franz are two fitness fanatics. On a run from A to B, Hans runs half the way and walks the other half. Franz runs for h
snow_lady [41]
Answer :Hans

Here is an informal argument. Since Franz and Hans run
faster than they walk, Hans will go farther in the time that he runs
than in the equal time that he walks. Therefore he covers more
distance at a run than Franz does, since Fred covers equal distances
running and walking.

While both are walking or both are running, they will cover equal
distances. Therefore subtract this distance from the total distance.
The remaining distance is covered by Franz at a walk and by Hans at a
run, so Hans will finish first.
