Answer:

1.25% widgets from factory A fail.

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability of widgets that fail = 0.05

Probability of failing widget to belong from factory A = 0.25

Probability of failing widget to belong from factory B = 0.35

Probability of failing widget to belong from factory C = 0.40

Probability of factory A widgets failing = Probability of widgets failing * probability they belonged from factory A

Probability of factory A widgets failing = 0.05 * 0.25 = 0.0125

This probability stated as percentage: 1.25%

An anthropologist studies a woman's femur that was uncovered in Madagascar. To estimate the woman's height, he uses the equation
Lelu [443]

Answer:

The inequality f>40 represents the length of the femur for which the woman had a height greater than 160cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is

h=60+2.5f

Where, h is woman's height in centimeters and f is length of the femur in centimeters.

If woman's height is greater than 160cm, then

h>160

60+2.5f>160

Substract 60 from both sides.

2.5f>100

Divide both sides by 2.5.

f>40

Therefore the inequality  f>40 represents the lengths of the femur for which the woman had a height greater than 160cm.
