Let s represent the number of students surveyed.
.. 0.40s play baseball
.. 0.60*(0.40s) play soccer and baseball
.. 0.60*0.40s = 12 . . . . . . . 12 students play soccer and baseball
.. s = 12/(0.60*0.40) = 12/0.24 = 50

Jonah surveyed 50 students.

_____
This is the number of students required to match Jonah's calculations.

bija089 [108]

Answer:

The probability that the assembly line will be shut down is 0.00617.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a soda bottling company’s manufacturing process is calibrated so that 99% of bottles are filled to within specifications, while 1% is not within specification.

Every hour, 12 random bottles are taken from the assembly line and tested. If 2 or more bottles in the sample are not within specification, the assembly line is shut down for recalibration.

Let X = <u><em>Number of bottles in the sample that are not within specification</em></u>.

The above situation can be represented through binomial distribution;

P(X=r)=\binom{n}{r} \times p^{r}\times (1-p)^{n-r};x=0,1,2,3,.....

where, n = number of trials (samples) taken = 12 bottles

             x = number of success  = 2 or more bottles

            p = probabilitiy of success which in our question is probability that  

                 bottles are not within specification, i.e. p = 0.01

So, X ~ Binom (n = 12, p = 0.01)

Now, the probability that the assembly line will be shut down is given by = P(X \geq 2)

  P(X \geq 2) = 1 - P(X = 0) - P(X = 1)

                 = 1-\binom{12}{0} \times 0.01^{0}\times (1-0.01)^{12-0}-\binom{12}{1} \times 0.01^{1}\times (1-0.01)^{12-1}

                 = 1-(1 \times 1\times 0.99^{12})-(12 \times 0.01^{1}\times 0.99^{11})

                 = <u>0.00617</u>
