Answer:

There is a 19.73% probability of seeing 4 defected batteries in a sample of 200 batteries.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each battery there are only two possible outcomes. Either they are defective, or they are not. This means that we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this problem.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

In which C_{n,x} is the number of different combinatios of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

And p is the probability of X happening.

In this problem we have that:

n = 200, p = 0.02

What is the probability of seeing 4 defected batteries in a sample of 200 batteries ?

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 4) = C_{200,4}.(0.02)^{4}.(0.98)^{196} = 0.1973

There is a 19.73% probability of seeing 4 defected batteries in a sample of 200 batteries.

PLEASE HELP, GIVING 55 POINTS IF YOU ANSWER (08.03/08.05 MC) A pair of equations is shown below: y = 3x − 5 y = 6x − 8 Part A: E
Andrew [12]

Answer:

  A. (1, -2)

  B. the lines intersect at the solution point: (1, -2).

Step-by-step explanation:

A. The equations can be solve by substitution by using the y-expression provided by one of them to substitute for y in the other.

This gives ...

  3x -5 = 6x -8

Adding 8-3x to both sides, we get ...

  3 = 3x

Dividing both sides by 3 gives ...

  1 = x

Substituting this value into the first equation, we can find y:

  y = 3(1) -5 = -2

The solution is (x, y) = (1, -2).

__

B. The lines intersect at the solution point, the point that satisfies both equations simultaneously. That point is (1, -2).

I would really appreciate anyone who can answer this, Thanks!
gregori [183]

Answer:

JM

Step-by-step explanation:

A tangent line is a line that only intersects a circle at one point.

LG and CJ are not lines, and GH intersects the circle twice (at point G and point H), so JM is the tangent line.
