A pharmaceutical company receives large shipments of aspirin tablets. The acceptance sampling plan is to randomly select and tes

t 36 ​tablets, then accept the whole batch if there is only one or none that​ doesn't meet the required specifications. If one shipment of 5000 aspirin tablets actually has a 2​% rate of​ defects, what is the probability that this whole shipment will be​ accepted? Will almost all such shipments be​ accepted, or will many be​ rejected?

Answer:

The probability that this whole shipment will be​ accepted is 0.8382. Almost all such shipments be​ accepted as the probability of accepting is higher.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

The probability for accepting the whole batch if there is only one or none that​ doesn't meet the required specifications.

Aspirin tablets actually has a 2​% rate of​ defects. Thus, the rate of aspirin tablets are not defected 98%.

Which can be written as:

P(x=0 or x=1)

P(no defects out of 36)=^{36}c_0 \times (0.02)^0 \times (0.98)^{36}

P(no defects out of 36)=0.483213128206

P(one defects out of 36)=^{36}c_1 \times (0.02)^1 \times (0.98)^{35}

P(one defects out of 36)=36 \times 0.02 \times (0.49307)

P(one defects out of 36)=0.3550104

The probability that the whole shipment will accepted is the sum of the individual probabilities which is:

0.4832+0.3550=0.8382

Hence, the probability that this whole shipment will be​ accepted is 0.8382. Almost all such shipments be​ accepted as the probability of accepting is higher.

Consider the graphs of the functions f(x) and g(x)...

At x = 1 both the functions have same value of 6.

At x > 1 the exponential function has a greater rate of growth.

The answer is g(x).

What is the internal angle sum of a quadrilateral? (Hint: A quadirlateral has 4 sides.) OA) 90 OB) 180 OC) 360 OD 540
shtirl [24]

The internal angle sum of a quadrilateral is :

C. 360°

The sum of internal angles of a polygon is determined by a formula :

\longmapsto (n - 2) × 180°

where n represents number of sides.

In a quadrilateral there are four sides,

So, plugging 4 in the formula :

  • (4 - 2) \times 180°

  • 2 \times 180°

  • 360°

Can you explain please I don’t understand?
Angelina_Jolie [31]

don't be alarmed the two lines just mean absolute value, the problem is asking what is m. the problem is asking what number multipyed by 2, subtracted by 1 will give you 3?

2x2=4 right?

so 4-1=3 there!

m=4

so the problem is 2(4)-1=3

i hope i explained well enough!
