The production department has installed a new spray machine to paint automobile doors. As is common with most spray guns, unsigh

tly blemishes often appear because of improper mixture or other problems. A worker counted the number of blemishes on each door. Most doors had no blemishes; a few had one; a very few had two; and so on. The average number was 0.5 per door. The distribution of blemishes followed the Poisson distribution. Out of 10,000 doors painted, about how many would have no blemishes?
A. about 6,065B. about 3,935C. about 5,000D. about 500

Answer:

10000*0.6065=6065

A. about 6,065

Step-by-step explanation:

Definitions and concepts

The Poisson process is useful when we want to analyze the probability of ocurrence of an event in a time specified. The probability distribution for a random variable X following the Poisson distribution is given by:

P(X=x) =\lambda^x \frac{e^{-\lambda}}{x!}

And the parameter \lambda represent the average ocurrence rate per unit of time.

For this distribution the expected value is the same parameter \lambda  

E(X)=\mu =\lambda=0.5  , Var(X)=\lambda=0.5, Sd(X)=707

Solution to the problem

We want "how many would have no blemishes" so first we need to find the probability that X=0, since X represent on this case the number of blemishes on each door. And if we use the mass function we got this:

P(X=0) =0.5^0 \frac{e^{-0.5}}{0!}=0.6065

And now since we have a total of 10000 doors painted we can find how many we would expect with no blemishes:

10000*0.6065=6065

A. about 6,065

Convert 30,000 ML into L
lakkis [162]

Answer:

30 liters

Step-by-step explanation:

To me it's kind of like multiplying and dividing.

So, what I did was 30,000 divided by 30 and got 1,000.

1,000 x 30 = 30,000.

That's what I did. You probably have your own way of doing it, but the answer is 30. I'm sorry if my explanation isn't good enough but I tried. Thanks for the question and enjoy your answer :)

A drink dispenser fills cups at a rate of 2 ounces per second. Adrain has 64 ounce cup that already contains 18 ounces of water.
diamong [38]

Answer:

23 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find out how many ounces left are needed to fill the water. Subtract the total, 64, by the already filled, 18. This should get you the answer of 46.

Since the dispenser fills 2 ounces per second, you need to divide the number 46 by 2 in order to find the amount of time in seconds it would take to fill the rest of the cup.

Therefore, your answer is 23 seconds.

Hope this helps!

In what situation might you have to calculate the surface area of volume of a solid?
Digiron [165]
One application of volume is determining the density of an object. Assume the object is made of a pure element (eg: gold). If we know the volume (v) of the object, and we know the mass (m), then we can use the formula D = m/v to figure out the density D. Knowing the volume is also handy to determine if the object can fit into a larger space or not. Another application is figuring out how much water is needed to fill up the inner space of the 3D solid (assuming it's hollow on the inside).

The surface area is handy to figure out how much material is needed to cover the outer surface. This material can be paint, paper, metal sheets, or whatever you can think of really. A good example is wrapping a present and the assumption is that there is no overlap.

Describe in words where the square root of 50 minus 10 would be plotted on a number line.
Dafna1 [17]

The required value lies Between 6 and 7, but closer to 6. Option C is correct.

Given that,
The square root of 50 minus 10 would be plotted on a number line.

<h3>What is a number line?</h3>

A number line is defined as the number marked on the line calibrated into an equal number of units. For example -1, 0, 1, and so on.

According to the question,
= √[50-10]
= √40
= 6.32
Which is closer to 6.

Thus, the required value lies Between 6 and 7, but closer to 6. Option C is correct.
