Answer: The answer is $\dfrac{13}{20}.$

Step-by-step explanation: Given that Lee and Maya are collecting leaves for an art project. Let'x' be the total number of leaves needed in the project.

Then, the number of leaves collected by Lee is given by

$L_\ell=\dfrac{25}{100}x,$

and the fraction of the leaves collected by Maya is given by

$M_\ell=\dfrac{4}{10}x.$

Therefore, the total number of leaves collected by Lee and Maya altogether is

$L=L_\ell+M_\ell=\dfrac{25}{100}x+\dfrac{4}{10}x=\dfrac{25+40}{100}x=\dfrac{65}{100}x=\dfrac{13}{20}x.$

Thus, the total fraction of the leaves collected by Lee and Maya is

$\dfrac{13}{20}.$

There are 5 pens in a container on your desk. Among them, 3 will write well but 2 have defective ink cartridges. You will select

Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Total Number of pens = 5

Number of defective pens = 2

Number of non-defective pens = 3

A.) number of defective pens selected :

X : {0, 1, 2}

It is possible that no defective pen will be selected ; 1 defective will be chosen or both pens are defective.

2.)

Defective as Success (since selecting a defective pen is the point of interest.

3.)

Since selection is done without replacement

Probability of success per selection is different for each selection ;

Number of defective = 2

Number of observations = 5

P(success on first selection) = 2/5

P(success on second selection) = 1/4

Hence, X is not well approximated by a binomial random variable.

4.) if selection is done with replacement ; then then the probability of success per selection will be the Same for each selection made. Hence, X will be well approximated by a binomial Random variable.

5.) If sampling is done without replacement, then the the hypergeometric function will be a more effective approximation.

Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

The answer is $\{(1,1),(2,2),(3,3),(4,4),(1,2)(2,3)(3,4),(1,3),(1,4)\}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that a reflexive relation $R\subset \mathcal{P}(X)$ , where $\mathcal{P}(X)$ is the power set of $X$ , is one which conteins the ordered pairs of the form $(a,a)$ , for $a\in X$ .

So, As the reflexive and transitive closure of $R$ (that we will denote by $\overline{R}$ ) is in particular reflexive, we must add to $R$ the elements $\{(1,1) , (2,2),(3,3),(4,4) \}$

A transitive relation $R$ is one in which if the pair $(a,b)$ and the pair $(b,c)$ are in there, then the pair $(a,c)$ must be there too.

So, to complete the relation $R$ to be reflexive and transitive we must add the pair $(1,3)$ (because $(1,2),(2,3)$ are in $R$ ), the pair $(2,4)$ , and the pair $(1,4)$ because we added the pair $(2,4)$ .

Therfore we have that $\overline{R}=\{(1,1),(2,2),(3,3),(4,4),(1,2)(2,3)(3,4),(1,3),(1,4)\}$ .
