Solution
Let 0 be the event that the batch has 0 defectives, 1 be the event the batch has 1 defective, and 2 be
the event the batch has 2 defectives. Let 0 be the event that neither selected component is defective.
(0
) = 0.5,(1
) = 0.3, (2
) = 0.2
The event 0 can happen in three different ways: (i) Our batch of 10 is perfect, and we get no defectives in
our sample of two; (ii) Our batch of 10 has 1 defective, but our sample of two misses them; (iii) Our batch
has 2 defective, but our sample misses them.
For (i), the probability is (0.5)(1).
For (ii), the probability that our batch has 1 defective is 0.3. Given that it has 1 defective, the probability
that our sample misses it is (
9
2
)
(
10
2
)
, which is 8
10
. So the probability of (ii) is (0.3) (
8
10).
For (iii), the probability our batch has 2 defective is 0.2. Given that it has 2 defective, the probability that
our sample misses both is (
8
2
)
(
10
2
)
, which is 56
90
. So the probability of (iii) is (0.2) (
56
90). We have therefore found
that
(0
) = (0.5)(1) + (0.3) (
8
10) + (0.2) (
56
90).
We use the general conditional probability formula:
(0
|0
) =
(0 ∩ 0
)
(0
)
=
(0.5)(1)
(0.5)(1) + (0.3) (
8
10) + (0.2) (
56
90)
= 0.5784.
(1
|0
) =
(1∩0
)
(0
)
=
(0.3)(
8
10)
(0.5)(1)+(0.3)(
8
10)+(0.2)(
56
90)
= 0.2776.
(2
|0
) =
(2∩0
)
(0
)
=
(0.2)(
56
90)
(0.5)(1)+(0.3)(
8
10)+(0.2)(
56
90)
= 0.1440.
Answer: 0.5784; 0.2776; 0.1440.

What properrty is shown? 4+(3+2)=4+(2+3)
BabaBlast [244]
The commutative property is shown. It states that an equation has the same value as it would even if the numbers were mixed. In this equation, the 2 and the 3 are switched within the parentheses, so it still has the same value.

Micheal is 4 times as old as Brandon and is also 27 years older than Brandon. It wants me to write a system of equations that re
Sladkaya [172]
M = 4b
m = b + 27

4b = b + 27
4b - b = 27
3b = 27
b = 27/3
b = 9......Brandon is 9

m = 4b
m = 4(9)
m = 36.....Michael is 36

1 2/3 ÷x=2 7/9 <br> This needs to be with full steps. Please help!!!!
avanturin [10]

Answer:

x = ³/₅

Step-by-step explanation:

1⅔/x = 2⁷/₉       Convert the right-hand side to improper fraction  

1⅔/x = ²⁵/₉        Multiply each side by x  

  1⅔ = ²⁵/₉x      Convert the left-hand side to improper fraction  

   ⁵/₃ = ²⁵/₉x      Multiply each side by 9  

   15 = 25x        Divide each side by 25  

      x = ³/₅  


<em>Check:  </em>

  1⅔/⅗ = 2⁷/₉  

⁵/₃ × ⁵/₃ = ²⁵/₉  

     ²⁵/₉ = ²⁵/₉
