Suppose that Stephen is the quality control supervisor for a food distribution company. A shipment containing many thousands of

apples has just arrived. Unknown to Stephen, 12% of the apples are damaged due to bruising, worms, or other defects. If Stephen samples 10 apples from the shipment, use the binomial distribution to estimate the probability that his sample will contain at least one damaged apple Give your answer as a decimal precise to at least four decimal places

Answer:

probability that his sample will contain at least one damaged apple (P) = 0.7215

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Probability of damaged apples (p) = 12% = 0.12

number of samples (n) = 10

Consider,

x- number of apples damaged.

Using Binomial distribution formula:

P(x) = (nCx) (P)^x (1-p)^(n-x)

To find the probability that his sample will contain at least one damaged apple:

P(x≥1) = 1 - P(x<1)

          = 1 - P(x=0)

          = 1 - 10C_0 (0.12)^0 ( 1-0.12)^(10)

P(x≥1)  = 0.7215

What is the solution of the following system?
erica [24]

Answer:

The answer to your question is: both lines are the same.

Step-by-step explanation:

                                   

                                             3x + 3y = 10

                                            -9x -9y = -30

Elimination method

                                            9x + 9x = 30

                                           -9x -  9y = -30

                                              0     0      0

If a polyhedron has 5 faces and 7 vertices, then it must have how many edges? Please show step-by-step work
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

10 edges

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The Euler's formula state that: In a polyhedron, the number of vertices, minus the number of edges, plus the number of faces, is equal to two

V - E + F = 2

in this problem  we have

V=7\\E=?\\F=5

substitute the given values

7 - E + 5 = 2

solve for E

Combine like terms in the left side

12 - E = 2

subtract 12 both sides

- E = -10

Multiply by -1 both sides

E =10
