Eleven percent of the pens made by Apex are defective.

1 answer:

3 0

Let A be the event 'made by Apex and defective':
P(A) = 0.67 x 0.11 = 0.0737
Let B be the event 'made by B-ink and defective':
P(B) = 0.33 x 0.06 = 0.0198
Let C be the event 'made by Apex or B-ink and defective':
P(C) = P(A) + P(B) = 0.0737 + 0.0198 = 0.0935
P(defective and made by Apex) = 0.0737/0.0935 = 0.788
The answer is 0.788 or 78.8%.

Solving Proportions 19/4 = x/4

fredd [130]

Answer:

x = 19

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve proportions, you first need to cross multiply. $\frac{19}{4}= \frac{x}{4}$ , you would need to multiply each top number by 4. 76 = 4x, which then could easily be simplified down to 19 by just dividing by four.

An economist uses the price of a gallon of milk as a measure of inflation. She finds that the average price is $3.82 per gallon

salantis [7]

Answer:

(a) The standard error of the mean in this experiment is $0.052.

(b) The probability that the sample mean is between $3.78 and $3.86 is 0.5587.

(c) The probability that the difference between the sample mean and the population mean is less than $0.01 is 0.5754.

(d) The likelihood that the sample mean is greater than $3.92 is 0.9726.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the Central Limit Theorem if we have an unknown population with mean μ and standard deviation σ and appropriately huge random samples (n > 30) are selected from the population with replacement, then the distribution of the sample means will be approximately normally distributed.

Then, the mean of the distribution of sample mean is given by,

$\mu_{\bar x}=\mu$
