Batch size = 280 purifiers
Defectives = 12 purifiers

Then,
P(defective) = defectives/batch size = 12/280 =3/70

As a percentage:
P(defective) = (3/70)*100 = 4.29%

Is the simplified form of 2-3 + 3.3 rational?<br> Yes<br> No
N76 [4]

Answer:

YES IT IS

Step-by-step explanation:

2-3 + 3.3

= -1 + 3.3

= -4.3

We learn that:

Rational number: rational number is the number that can be written as a/b (a and b would be intergers and b is not equal to 0). Rational number would be most of numbers we use in out life, except Square root and Pi number.

In this case, -4.3 can be write as -43/10

So YES it would be a rational number

Hope this helped :3

sasho [114]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{x^3}{a^3} +\frac{a^3}{x^3} =p\\\frac{x^3}{a^3} -\frac{a^3}{x^3} =q\\adding\\2\frac{x^3}{a^3} =p+q\\\frac{x^3}{a^3} =\frac{p+q}{2} \\substitute~in~first\\\frac{p+q}{2} +\frac{2}{p+q} =p\\\frac{(p+q)^2+4}{2(p+q)} =p\\(p+q)^2+4=2p(p+q)\\p^2+q^2+2pq+4-2p^2-2pq=0\\q^2-p^2+4=0\\q^2=p^2-4
