Answer:

1 pint of tea left in the pitcher.

Step-by-step explanation:

A pitcher contains 40 fluid ounces

1 cup = 8 fluid ounces

3 cups = 3*8 = 24 fluid ounces

After pouring tea in 3 cups,

tea left in pitcher = 40 - 24 = 16 fluid ounces

1 pint = 16 ounces

Therefore, 1 pint left.

Hope this will helpful.

Thank you.

Convert 3 cups to fluid ounces.

1 cup = 8 fluid ounces

8 * 3 = 24 fluid ounces poured:

40 - 24 = 16

There are 16 fluid ounces left, now convert to pints.

1 fluid ounce = 0.0625 pints

0.0625 * 16 = 1

So there is 1 pint left.

What is the sum of the finite arithmetic series? 26 + 29 + 32 + 35 + 38 + 41 + 44

Leya [2.2K]

The sum of the finite arithmetic series of <span> 26 + 29 + 32 + 35 + 38 + 41 + 44 is 245. Arithmetic series is a sequence of number such that the difference between any term and the previous term is a constant number. When we sum a finite number of terms in the arithmetic series, we get the finite arithmetic series. </span>

A pen company averages 1.2 defective pens per carton produced (200 pens). The number of defects per carton is Poisson distribute

nlexa [21]

Answer:

a. P(x = 0 | λ = 1.2) = 0.301

b. P(x ≥ 8 | λ = 1.2) = 0.000

c. P(x > 5 | λ = 1.2) = 0.002

Step-by-step explanation:

If the number of defects per carton is Poisson distributed, with parameter 1.2 pens/carton, we can model the probability of k defects as:

$P(k)=\frac{\lambda^{k}e^{-\lambda}}{k!}= \frac{1.2^{k}\cdot e^{-1.2}}{k!}$

a. What is the probability of selecting a carton and finding no defective pens?

This happens for k=0, so the probability is:

$P(0)=\frac{1.2^{0}\cdot e^{-1.2}}{0!}=e^{-1.2}=0.301$

b. What is the probability of finding eight or more defective pens in a carton?

This can be calculated as one minus the probablity of having 7 or less defective pens.

$P(k\geq8)=1-P(k$

$P(0)=1.2^{0} \cdot e^{-1.2}/0!=1*0.3012/1=0.301\\\\P(1)=1.2^{1} \cdot e^{-1.2}/1!=1*0.3012/1=0.361\\\\P(2)=1.2^{2} \cdot e^{-1.2}/2!=1*0.3012/2=0.217\\\\P(3)=1.2^{3} \cdot e^{-1.2}/3!=2*0.3012/6=0.087\\\\P(4)=1.2^{4} \cdot e^{-1.2}/4!=2*0.3012/24=0.026\\\\P(5)=1.2^{5} \cdot e^{-1.2}/5!=2*0.3012/120=0.006\\\\P(6)=1.2^{6} \cdot e^{-1.2}/6!=3*0.3012/720=0.001\\\\P(7)=1.2^{7} \cdot e^{-1.2}/7!=4*0.3012/5040=0\\\\$

$P(k$

c. Suppose a purchaser of these pens will quit buying from the company if a carton contains more than five defective pens. What is the probability that a carton contains more than five defective pens?

We can calculate this as we did the previous question, but for k=5.

$P(k>5)=1-P(k\leq5)=1-\sum_{k=0}^5P(k)\\\\P(k>5)=1-(0.301+0.361+0.217+0.087+0.026+0.006)\\\\P(k>5)=1-0.998=0.002$
