John assumed that out of 80 coins contained in the Jar, 40 coin pieces is a dime, which makes 40 out of 80 equal to 0.5. But this assumption is wrong as for each draw you'd only have 1/80 chance of getting a dime combining and giving both types of coin each a chance to be drawn.

It takes a new mail carrier 4 hours to deliver the mail on route a. It takes an experienced mail carrier 3 hours to do the same
Pani-rosa [81]

Answer: \frac{12}{7}\ \text{hours}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

New mail carrier takes 4 hours for delivery i.e.

New mail carrier completes \frac{1}{4} part of work in 1 hour

Old mail carrier takes 3 hours for delivery  i.e.

mail carrier completes \frac{1}{3}  part of work in 1 hour

If they work together, they complete the work in x hours i.e.

\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{x}=\dfrac{1}{4}+\dfrac{1}{3}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{x}=\dfrac{3+4}{12}\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{12}{7}\ \text{hours}

Doss [256]

Answer:

more than 15.40 cm and less than  14.60 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

A manufacturer of bolts has a quality control policy that requires it destroy any bolts that are more than 4 standard deviations from the mean.

mean length= 15 cm

standard deviation= 0.10 cm

4 standard deviation from mean= 15±(4×0.10)

therefore, bolts of length more than 15+0.4, and less than 15-0.4 will be destroyed

= 15.40 cm and 14.60 cm
