Well

1 cg (centigram) is the same as 10 mg (milligrams)

so

25 milligrams are lighter

1 centigram= 10 milligram

if you convert 25cg to mg, you'll get 250mg (25×10)
so 25 mg is lighter than 25cg(250mg)

so your answer is 25mg is lighter than 25cg.

A rectangle with a perimeter of 19m^2+2m-10 and a width of m^2 write an expression for the lenght

expeople1 [14]

Answer:

$8.5m^{2}+ m -5$

Step-by-step explanation:

Since perimeter, $P=19m^{2}+ 2m -10$ and we know that P=2(l+w) then $P=2(l+m^{2})=2l+2m^{2}$

The length will be $2l=19m^{2}+ 2m -10-2m^{2}=17m^{2}+ 2m -10$

Now $l=8.5m^{2}+ m -5$

When circuit boards used in the manufacture of compact disc players are tested, the long-run percentage of defectives is 5%. Let

sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

(a) P(X=3) = 0.093

(b) P(X≤3) = 0.966

(c) P(X≥4) = 0.034

(d) P(1≤X≤3) = 0.688

(e) The probability that none of the 25 boards is defective is 0.277.

(f) The expected value and standard deviation of X is 1.25 and 1.089 respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that when circuit boards used in the manufacture of compact disc players are tested, the long-run percentage of defectives is 5%.

Let X = the number of defective boards in a random sample of size, n = 25

So, X ∼ Bin(25,0.05)

The probability distribution for the binomial distribution is given by;

$P(X=r)= \binom{n}{r} \times p^{r}\times (1-p)^{n-r} ; x = 0,1,2,......$

where, n = number of trials (samples) taken = 25

r = number of success

p = probability of success which in our question is percentage

of defectivs, i.e. 5%

(a) P(X = 3) = $\binom{25}{3} \times 0.05^{3}\times (1-0.05)^{25-3}$

= $2300 \times 0.05^{3}\times 0.95^{22}$

= 0.093

(b) P(X $\leq$ 3) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3)

= $\binom{25}{0} \times 0.05^{0}\times (1-0.05)^{25-0}+\binom{25}{1} \times 0.05^{1}\times (1-0.05)^{25-1}+\binom{25}{2} \times 0.05^{2}\times (1-0.05)^{25-2}+\binom{25}{3} \times 0.05^{3}\times (1-0.05)^{25-3}$

= $1 \times 1 \times 0.95^{25}+25 \times 0.05^{1}\times 0.95^{24}+300 \times 0.05^{2}\times 0.95^{23}+2300 \times 0.05^{3}\times 0.95^{22}$

= 0.966

(c) P(X $\geq$ 4) = 1 - P(X < 4) = 1 - P(X $\leq$ 3)

= 1 - 0.966

= 0.034

(d) P(1 ≤ X ≤ 3) = P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3)

= $\binom{25}{1} \times 0.05^{1}\times (1-0.05)^{25-1}+\binom{25}{2} \times 0.05^{2}\times (1-0.05)^{25-2}+\binom{25}{3} \times 0.05^{3}\times (1-0.05)^{25-3}$

= $25 \times 0.05^{1}\times 0.95^{24}+300 \times 0.05^{2}\times 0.95^{23}+2300 \times 0.05^{3}\times 0.95^{22}$

= 0.688

(e) The probability that none of the 25 boards is defective is given by = P(X = 0)

P(X = 0) = $\binom{25}{0} \times 0.05^{0}\times (1-0.05)^{25-0}$

= $1 \times 1\times 0.95^{25}$

= 0.277

(f) The expected value of X is given by;

E(X) = $n \times p$

= $25 \times 0.05$ = 1.25

The standard deviation of X is given by;

S.D.(X) = $\sqrt{n \times p \times (1-p)}$

= $\sqrt{25 \times 0.05 \times (1-0.05)}$

= 1.089

If f(x) is a linear function, what is the value of n?

lana [24]

The generic equation for a linear function can be expressed in the slope intercept form f(x) = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y intercept. For this problem we can first find the equation of the line. Then we substitute x = 7 to get the f(x) value, which is n at the point x = 7.

To find the equation of the linear function we first find the slope. Slope is defined as the change in f(x) divided by the change in x. As we are given a linear function, the slope at every point is the same. We can pick any two points known to find the slope.

Let's pick (3, 7) and (9, 16). The slope m is m = (16-7)/(9-3) = 9/6 = 3/2.

Now that we have the slope, we can plug in the slope and one of the points to find b. Let's use the point (3, 7).
f(x) = mx + b
7 = (1/2)(3) + b
b = 11/2

Now we can write the equation
f(x) = (1/2)x + 11/2

Plugging in x = 7 we find that f(7) = 9. n = 9
