A company that produces fine crystal knows from experience that 13% of its goblets have cosmetic flaws and must be classified as

Kisachek [45]

Answer:

(a) The probability that only one goblet is a second among six randomly selected goblets is 0.3888.

(b) The probability that at least two goblet is a second among six randomly selected goblets is 0.1776.

(c) The probability that at most five must be selected to find four that are not seconds is 0.9453.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X = number of seconds in the batch.

The probability of the random variable X is, p = 0.31.

The random variable X follows a Binomial distribution with parameters n and p.

The probability mass function of X is:

$P(X=x)={n\choose x}p^{x}(1-p)^{n-x};\ x=0,1,2,3...$

(a)

Compute the probability that only one goblet is a second among six randomly selected goblets as follows:

$P(X=1)={6\choose 1}0.13^{1}(1-0.13)^{6-1}\\=6\times 0.13\times 0.4984\\=0.3888$

Thus, the probability that only one goblet is a second among six randomly selected goblets is 0.3888.

(b)

Compute the probability that at least two goblet is a second among six randomly selected goblets as follows:

P (X ≥ 2) = 1 - P (X < 2)

$=1-{6\choose 0}0.13^{0}(1-0.13)^{6-0}-{6\choose 1}0.13^{1}(1-0.13)^{6-1}\\=1-0.4336+0.3888\\=0.1776$

Thus, the probability that at least two goblet is a second among six randomly selected goblets is 0.1776.

(c)

If goblets are examined one by one then to find four that are not seconds we need to select either 4 goblets that are not seconds or 5 goblets including only 1 second.

P (4 not seconds) = P (X = 0; n = 4) + P (X = 1; n = 5)

$={4\choose 0}0.13^{0}(1-0.13)^{4-0}+{5\choose 1}0.13^{1}(1-0.13)^{5-1}\\=0.5729+0.3724\\=0.9453$

Thus, the probability that at most five must be selected to find four that are not seconds is 0.9453.

You have a new pool and want to know it's volume. The pool is 5 feet deep and has a radius of 7 feet. About how much water can t

MrRa [10]

Answer:

769 cubic ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Its volume:

Find the volume of a cylinder of radius 7 ft and length 5 ft:

The basic formula for his volume is V = πr²h. In this case, the volume is:

V = 3.14(7 ft)²(5 ft) = 769 cubic feet of water.

|13x-4|+12 < 56 Anybody know this cuz I do

Ronch [10]

Answer:

$\displaystyle x\in \left(-\frac{40}{13},\frac{48}{13}\right)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Inequalities with Absolute Value

We must recall the following rule:

$\text{If }|M|0$

Then:

$-N$

We have the following inequality:

$|13x-4|+12 < 56$

Subtracting 12:

$|13x-4|< 56-12$

$|13x-4|< 44$

Applying the rule:

$-44$

Adding 4:

$-44+4$

Operating:

$-40$

Dividing by 13:

$\displaystyle -\frac{40}{13}$

The solution expressed in interval form is:

$\boxed{\displaystyle x\in \left(-\frac{40}{13},\frac{48}{13}\right)}$
