Answer:

65%

Step-by-step explanation:

13/20 are recycled

We want a percent, which is out of 100

13*5 = 65

20*5 =100

At a manufacturing plant where switches are made, it is a known fact that 2% of all switches are defective. If two switches are

olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

The probability that exactly one switch is good is

$P(x) =0.0392$

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability that a switch is defective is:

$P(D) = \frac{2}{100} =0.02$

The probability that a switch is not defective is

$P(D') = 1-P(D)=0.98$

Therefore, if two switches are selected, the probability that exactly 1 is good is:

$P(1=1)=P (D) P (D ') + P (D') P (D)$

$P(x)=(0.02)(0.98) + (0.98)(0.02)$

$P(x) =0.0392$

Troyanec [42]

Let x = total distance he covered
3x/4 by bus
1/2 . x/4 = x/8 by jogging
the remaining distance = x/8 by walking
thus x/8 = 800ft
x = 8 . 800 = 6400ft
