suppose the leftmost digits of two numbers are 8 and 3. can you tell which number is greater? explain.

1 answer:

6 0

You cannot tell which number is greater because you don't know how many numbers follow after 8 or 3. It all depends on how many numbers follow afterwards.
Example:
It could be 800 or 80,000
It could be 30,000 or 300,000

Describe two quantities that can be measured accurately by integers

myrzilka [38]

Since a quantity is a variable that could be described in terms of numbers, then the quantities that can be measured exactly be integers would be, say, the amount of houses to be supplied with power and the number of people in the household. A fraction could never be a possible amount, because a person and a house is counted as one whole.

What is 70/360 in percentage

defon

Answer:

About 19.45%

Step-by-step explanation:

First set the fraction equal to x over 100 ———- (70/360)=(x/100)

cross multiply———- 70 * 100 = 7000 360 * x = 360x

solve for x —————- 7000=360x

7000/360= 19.44444444

Round ——- x=19.45

Divide fraction ———— 70/360 = 0.1944444444

Next, convert to percentage by moving decimal 2 places to the right ——

019.44444444

Round ————- = 19.45

A company produces computer batteries. Everyday, the company produces exactly 500 batteries. To keep track of how many batteries

valkas [14]

Using the binomial distribution, it is found that about 75 batteries each day are defective.

For each battery, there are only two possible outcomes, either it is defective, or it is not. The probability of a battery being defective is independent of any other battery, hence the <em>binomial distribution</em> is used to solve this question.

<h3>What is the binomial probability distribution?</h3>

It is the probability of exactly <u>x successes on n repeated trials, with p probability</u> of a success on each trial.

The expected value of the binomial distribution is:

$E(X) = np$

In this problem:

3 out of 20 batteries are defective, hence p = 3/20 = 0.15.

Each day, 500 batteries are produced, hence n = 500.

Then, the expected number of defective batteries in a day is given by:

E(X) = np = 500(0.15) = 75.
