Look in the table at the column that has 1 minute and 4.25 pages. Printer A prints 4.25 pages in 1 minute which is a rate of 4.25 pages per minute. The rate of printing is the slope in the equation. A rate of 4.25 pages per minute is represented by the equation y = 4.25x, where 4.25 ids the slope of the equation.
We are told that Printer A prints faster than Printer B, so Printer B must have a lower rate of printing than Printer A. The equation for Printer B must have a slope less than 4.25.
There are two choices which have a slope less than than 4.25.
Answer: y = 4.2x; y = 4x
Answer:
false
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this problem, we make use of the Binomial
Probability equation which is mathematically expressed as:
P = [n! / r! (n – r)!] p^r * q^(n – r)
where,
n = the total number of gadgets = 4
r = number of samples = 1 and 2 (since not more than 2)
p = probability of success of getting a defective gadget
q = probability of failure = 1 – p
Calculating for p:
p = 5 / 15 = 0.33
So,
q = 1 – 0.33 = 0.67
Calculating for P when r = 1:
P (r = 1) = [4! / 1! 3!] 0.33^1 * 0.67^3
P (r = 1) = 0.3970
Calculating for P when r = 2:
P (r = 2) = [4! / 2! 2!] 0.33^2 * 0.67^2
P (r = 2) = 0.2933
Therefore the total probability of not getting more than
2 defective gadgets is:
P = 0.3970 + 0.2933
P = 0.6903
Hence there is a 0.6903 chance or 69.03% probability of
not getting more than 2 defective gadgets.
