Light bulbs manufactured at a certain factory have a 3% probability of being defective. What is the probability that 5 out of a

shipment of 30 will be defective?

There is a 3% chance of each light bulb being defective, and we only want 5 of them to be defective. The chance is then:

3\%^5*97\%^{25}

Or this really small number: 1.13474853e-8

Which rational number is one tick mark to the left of -3/4
Zolol [24]

I'm assuming each tickmark is 1/4 = 0.25

If that assumption is correct, then going one tickmark to the left of -3/4 lands you on -4/4 which simplifies to -1.

So -1 is one tickmark to the left of -3/4

Again, this all hinges on the assumption that each tickmark is 1/4 a unit away from its neighbor.

The sum of three consecutive terms of an arithmetic sequence is 27, and the sum of their squares is 293. What is the absolute di
Ber [7]

The absolute difference between the greatest and the least of these three numbers in the arithmetic sequence is 10.

The sequence is an arithmetic sequence. Therefore,

d = common difference

let

a = centre term

Therefore, the 3 consecutive term will be as follows

a - d,  a, a + d

a - d +  a + a + d = 27

3a = 27

a = 27 / 3

a = 9

Therefore,

(a-d)² + (a)² + (a + d)² = 293

(a²-2ad+d²) + 9² + (a² + 2ad + d²) = 293

(81 - 18d + d²) + 81 + (81 + 18d + d²) = 293

243 + 2d² = 293

2d² = 50

d² = 50 / 2

d = √25

d = 5

common difference = 5

Therefore, the 3 numbers are as follows

9 - 5 , 9, 9 + 5 = 4, 9, 14

The difference between the greatest and the least of these 3 numbers are as follows:

14 - 4 = 10
