U=200
n(G)=120
n(F)=100
n(GnF)=x
U=n(G)+n(F)-n(GnF)
200=120+100-x
x=20
French but not German is 100-20=80
percentage = 80/200 *100%= 40%

Why must integration be used to find the work required to pump water out of a tank?

Anton [14]

Answer:

A. Different volumes of water are moved different distances.

Step-by-step explanation:

Integration is used to find work required to pump water out of a tank because different volumes of water are moved different distances and to sum it all we the tool required is integration. Moreover, work done is a path function or an inexact differential. It does depend upon the path followed by the process.

hence the correct answer is A.

A company that produces fine crystal knows from experience that 17% of its goblets have cosmetic flaws and must be classified as

Alex73 [517]

Answer:

0.3891 = 38.91% probability that only one is a second

Step-by-step explanation:

For each globet, there are only two possible outcoes. Either they have cosmetic flaws, or they do not. The probability of a goblet having a cosmetic flaw is independent of other globets. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

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 combinations 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.

17% of its goblets have cosmetic flaws and must be classified as "seconds."

This means that $p = 0.17$

Among seven randomly selected goblets, how likely is it that only one is a second

This is P(X = 1) when n = 7. So

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

$P(X = 1) = C_{7,1}.(0.17)^{1}.(0.83)^{6} = 0.3891$

0.3891 = 38.91% probability that only one is a second
