A manufacturer of matches randomly and independently puts 24 matches in each box of matches produced. The company knows that one

-tenth of 5 percent of the matches are flawed. What is the probability that a matchbox will have one or fewer matches with a flaw?

Answer:

There is a 0.36% Chance of 1 or fewer in every 24 matches being flawed.

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly we need to know what 1/10 of 5 is. It is 0.5.

You then need to multiply 24 by 1.5 to get 36. We then need to  divide that by 100 to get a percentage and we end up with 0.36%

Here is an explanation of how to get percentages: https://www.mathsisfun.com/converting-fractions-percents.html

I need help on 5-7. Its a little confusing for me
Len [333]

Answer:

5. x = 5, y = 3

6. x = 0, y = 4

7. x = -1, y = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

5. substitute 3(value of y) into the equation y = x - 2:

=> 3 = x - 2

=> x = 5

6. substitute 0(value of x) into the equation y = x + 4:

=> y = 0 + 4

=> y = 4

7. substitute 1(value of y) into the equation y = 2x + 3:

=> 1 = 2x + 3

=> 2x = -2

=> x = -1

A circle has a circumference of 6. It has an arc of length 17/3. What is the central angle of the arc, in degrees?
zepelin [54]

Answer:

340 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

So the key thing here is to notice that we are given the circumference which will allow us to find a value for the radius of the circle and hence the angle subtended by the arc (the central angle).

So the circumference of a circle = 2pi(r)

This means:

6 = 2pi(r)

Which means that

r = 6/2pi or r = 3/pi

Now we can use this value of r to find our angle in conjunction with the value of the arc length. So:

Arc length is defined by: length = θr

Where θ is our angle value.

So lets plug in:

\frac{17}{3} = (angle)\frac{3}{\pi }

Multiply by pi to get:

\frac{17\pi }{3} = 3(angle)

Divide by 3 to get that:

θ = 17pi/9

So if we convert that from radians to degrees we get 340 degrees.

Answer:

He would need to walk the dog 6 more times because 8 times 11 is 88 and if he has already walked the dog 5 times you would subtract that from 11 to get 6. So the answer would be 6

Step-by-step explanation:

8·11= 88

11-5= 6
