Answer: the probability of rejecting the lot is 0.68

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming a binomial probability distribution, the formula for binomial distribution is expressed as

P(x = r) = nCr × q^(n - r) × p^r

Where

n = number of samples

p = probability that an event will happen.

q = probability that an event will not happen.

From the information given,

n = 20

If an incoming lot is 10 percent defective, it means that

p = 10/100 = 0.1

q = 1 - p = 1 - 0.1 = 0.9

If 2 or less defective bolts are discovered, the lot will be rejected. The probability of rejecting the lot would be

P(x lesser than or equal to 2)

P(x lesser than or equal to 2) =

P(x = 0) + P(x = 1) + P(x =2)

P(x = 0) = 20C0 × 0.9^(20 - 0) × 0.1^0 = 0.12

(x = 1) = 20C1 × 0.9^(20 - 1) × 0.1^1 = 0.12 = 0.27

(x = 2) = 20C2 × 0.9^(20 - 2) × 0.1^2 = 0.12 = 0.29

P(x lesser than or equal to 2) = 0.12 + 0.27 + 0.29 = 0.68

Calculate limits x&gt;-infinity<br> -2x^5-3x+1
Lera25 [3.4K]

Given:

The limit problem is:

\lim_{x\to -\infty}(-2x^5-3x+1)

To find:

The value of the given limit problem.

Solution:

We have,

\lim_{x\to -\infty}(-2x^5-3x+1)

In the function -2x^5-3x+1, the degree of the polynomial is 5, which is an odd number and the leading coefficient is -2, which is a negative number.

So, the function approaches to positive infinity as x approaches to negative infinity.

\lim_{x\to -\infty}(-2x^5-3x+1)=\infty

Therefore, \lim_{x\to -\infty}(-2x^5-3x+1)=\infty.

Only do question 4<br><br> 50 points<br><br> Topic: Percentage
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

a 1

b 6

c 15

Step-by-step explanation:

101% 101/100 = 1 1/100

is 1  complete 100 grid and 1/100 of another grid so you will need 2 grids

589% 589/100 = 5 89/100

is 5 complete 100 grids and 89/100 of another grid so you will need 6 grids

1450% 1450/100 = 14 50/100

is 14 complete grids and 50/100 of another grid so you will need 15 grids

If ​f(x)equals 2xminus5 and ​k(x)equals ​f(xplus3​), write the equation for​ k(x).
ololo11 [35]
F(x)=2x-5
k(x)=f(x+3)=2(x+3)-5=2x+6-5=2x+1

k(x)=2x+1
