A shipment of 40 fancy calculators contains 3 defective units. What is the probability if a college bookstore buys 20 calculator

JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

38.46%

Step-by-step explanation:

There are no names or marking that can make the calculator look different, so the order is not important. Then we should use a combination to solve this problem.

There are 40 calculators in one shipment, 37 of them good items and 3 of them are defect items. We need to choose 19 good calculators and 1 defect calculator. The number of ways to do that will be:

$\frac{37}{19}$ * $\frac{3}{1}$ = 37! $\frac{37!}{19!(37-19!)} * \frac{3!}{1!(3-1)!}$ = 53017895700

The number of possible ways to choose 20 calculators out of 40 calculators will be:

$\frac{40}{20}$ = $\frac{40!}{20!(40-20!)}$ =137846528820

The chance will be: 53017895700/ 137846528820 = 0.3846= 38.46%

F(x)=-1/2(x-2)^2-4 <br> Graph the function

telo118 [61]

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

The function is written in vertex form. It has a negative vertical scale factor, so you know ...

the vertex is (2, -4)
the vertical scale factor is 1/2
the parabola opens downward

Vertex form is ...

f(x) = a(x -h)^2 +k . . . . . . . . . . vertical scale factor "a", vertex (h, k)

Since you know the vertex and scale factor, you can plot some points on the graph. I find it convenient to think in terms of units either side of the vertex. These are values of x that would make (x-2)^2 be 1^2, 2^2, 3^2, 4^2 and so on. The vertical scale factor of -1/2 tells you that the y-differences for these points will be -1/2, -4/2, -9/2, -16/2 from the vertex. Then we have ...

vertex: (2, -4)

1 unit either side of the vertex: (1, -4.5), (3, -4.5)

2 units either side of the vertex: (0, -6), (4, -6)

3 units either side of the vertex: (-1, -8.5), (5, -8.5)

4 units either side of the vertex: (-2, -12), (6, -12)

You can plot these points and draw a smooth curve through them. Or, you can let a graphing calculator do it. The result will be similar to that shown below.

Chelsey put for $450 into an account with a simple interest rate of 2.5% when she withdrew the money she had earned a total of $

fgiga [73]

Answer:

5.66 years

Step-by-step explanation:

450 x 1.025^(n) = 450 + 67.50

450 x 1.025^(n) = 517.50

1.025^(n) =(517.50 / 450)

1.025^(n) = 1.15

n = ln(1.15) / ln(1.025)

n = 5.66
