Answer:

(a) Probability that there are no surface flaws in an auto's interior is 0.6703 .

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the number of surface flaws in plastic panels used in the interior of automobiles has a Poisson distribution with a mean of 0.04 flaws per square foot of plastic panel.

Let X = Distribution of number of surface flaws in plastic panels

So, X ~ Poisson(\lambda)

The mean of Poisson distribution is given by, E(X) = \lambda = 0.04

which means, X ~ Poisson(0.04)

The probability distribution function of a Poisson random variable is:

P(X=x)=\frac{e^{-\lambda}\lambda^{x}}{x!}; for  x=0,1,2,3...

Now, we know that \lambda for per square foot of plastic panel is 0.04 and we are given that an automobile interior contains 10 square feet of plastic panel.

Therefore, \lambda for 10 square foot of plastic panel is = 10 * 0.04 = 0.4

(a) Probability that there are no surface flaws in an auto's interior =P(X=0)

     P(X = 0) = \frac{e^{-0.4}*0.4^{0}}{0!} = e^{-0.4} = 0.6703

Answer:

Option D.

3 equations with 3 variables

Step-by-step explanation:

The coordinates of a point in space must necessarily have 3 components. One to describe the distance on the x axis, another to describe the distance on the y axis to the point, and a third to describe the distance on the z axis.

If we have three variables, then 3 equations are needed to solve the system. With less than 3 equations it would be impossible to solver the system.

Therefore the correct answer is option D.

What is the true solution to 3 In 2+In 8 = 2 In(4x)?<br> 60f<br> Š O OOO<br> TNT 00
alina1380 [7]

Answer:

  x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Taking antilogs, you have ...

  2³ × 8 = (4x)²

  64 = 16x²

  x = √(64/16) = √4

  x = 2 . . . . . . . . (the negative square root is not a solution)

___

You can also work more directly with the logs, if you like.

  3·ln(2) +ln(2³) = 2ln(2²x) . . . . . . . . . . . write 4 and 8 as powers of 2

  3·ln(2) +3·ln(2) = 2(2·ln(2) +ln(x)) . . . . use rules of logs to move exponents

  6·ln(2) = 4·ln(2) +2·ln(x) . . . . . . . . . . . . simplify

  2·ln(2) = 2·ln(x) . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 4ln(2)

  ln(2) = ln(x) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 2

  2 = x . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . take the antilogs

A cart is coasting past Gordon. As it passes, he exerts a force on it. Whether the cart speeds up, slows down, or changes direct
Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

Direction

Step-by-step explanation:

Whether the car slows down or speeds up depends on the direction of the force applied, because if Gordon applied the force opposite the direction of the cart's movement, then the cart will slow down. If however, the force is applied in the direction of the carts movement, then the cart will speed up.
