D=event that chip selected is defective
d=event that chip selected is NOT defective

Four possible scenarios for the first two selections:
P(DDD)=15/100*14/99*13/98=13/4620
P(DdD)=15/100*85/99*14/98=17/924
P(dDD)=85/100*15/99*14/99=17/924
P(ddD)=85/100*84/99*15/98=17/154

Probability of third selection being defective is the sum of all cases,
P(XXD)=P(DDD)+P(DdD)+P(dDD)+P(ddD)
=3/20

Answer:

  3 1/8 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

For focus-vertex distance p, the equation of the parabola can be written ...

  y = x^2/(4p)

Here, we have p=8. We want to find the value of y when x=10 (the radius of the dish). That is ...

  y = (10^2)/(4·8) = 100/32 = 3 1/8

The dish is 3 1/8 inches deep.

zloy xaker [14]

Height covered by the plane=h= 500 feet

Distance covered by the plane along the ground=d= 2 mile

Now, convert the mile into feet,

1 mile = 5280 feet

2 mile = 10560 feet

Now, use the formula

h= d tanθ

tanθ= h/d

tanθ= 500/10560

tanθ= 25/528

Take the tan⁻¹ on both side,

θ= tan⁻¹(25/528)

θ =2.71°
