The solution to given inequality is:

x<3

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to solve the given inequality to get the value of x

Given inequality is:

$5x-20$

Adding 20 on both sides

$5x-20+20$

Dividing both sides by 5

$\frac{5x}{5}$

The solution to given inequality is:

x<3

x will be equal to all values less than 3

A lawn mower cost $470 when new and is expected to last 10 years. What will it be worth in 7.5 years? (Assume the lawn mower has

USPshnik [31]

Answer: 117.5
Explanation: Assuming that after 10 years the lawn mower would have a value of 0. We can evenly divide $470 by the amount of years.
$750/10 = $75
We would then multiply 75*7.5 years to then realize the value lost over that amount of time would be $352.5, subtracting that from the original value of $470 would then be 117.5

kvv77 [185]

Answer:

The correct answer is D- 29,544 ovens

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the answer, we simply need to find 20% of 24,620 ovens and add it to that sum. To find 20% of 24,620, we can simply multiply 24,620 by .2.

24,620*.2=4924

Then, add the extra 4924 to 24,620

4924+24620=29544

The correct answer is 29,544 ovens

Hope this helps! :D

A pharmaceutical company receives large shipments of aspirin tablets. The acceptance sampling plan is to randomly select and tes

DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

a) The probability that this whole shipment will be accepted is 30%.

b) Many of the shipments with this rate of defective aspirin tablets will be rejected.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a shipment of 3000 aspirin tablets, with a 5% rate of defects.

We select a sample of size 48 and test for defectives.

If more than one aspirin is defective, the batch is rejected.

The amount of defective aspirin tablets X can be modeled as a binomial distribution random variable, with p=0.55 and n=48

We have to calculate the probabilities that X is equal or less than 1: P(X≤1).

$P(X\leq1)=P(X=0)+P(X=1)\\\\\\P(0)=\binom{48}{0}(0.05)^0(0.95)^{48}=1*1*0.0853=0.0853\\\\\\P(1)=\binom{48}{1}(0.05)^1(0.95)^{47}=48*0.05*0.0897=0.2154\\\\\\P(X\eq1)=0.0853+0.2154=0.3007$
