Let n be the first page, and n+1 be the second. Then:
n(n+1)=272
n²+n-272=0
(n+17)(n-16)=0
n=16 or -17
If the first page is page 16, then the next is page 17

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

Find parametric equations through point P=(2,2,7) in the direction of the vector v = (44, 14, -20)?
ycow [4]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  (x, y, z) = (2+44t, 2+14t, 7-20t)

Step-by-step explanation:

One way to write parametric equations for line L is ...

  L = P + t·<em>v</em>

where P is the given point and <em>v</em> is the given direction vector. Using that form, we have ...

  (x, y, z) = (2+44t, 2+14t, 7-20t)

__

If you like, you can remove a common factor of 2 from the coefficients of t.

  (x, y, z) = (2+22t, 2+7t, 7-10t)
