Answer:

A negative number wouldn’t be reasonable in the solution of the rate of the investment.

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose Johnny invests $41,745 into an account, which has been earning interest for many years. The simple interest formula is:-

Simple Interest = $41745 x Rate x Time

We know Rate > 0 and Time > 0. It means Simple interest > 0.

<u>So the interest part could not be negative.</u>

Given that he now has a total of $39,974. So the interest part = $39,974 - $41,745 = -$1,771. It means he got the negative interest which is not reasonable.

Hence, a negative number wouldn’t be reasonable in the solution of the rate of the investment.

A negative number wouldn't be reasonable in investments because when you invest you are adding money to something. If you invest you aren't removing anything so there can't be negative numbers.

The ratio of the number of cups of blue paint to the number of cups of red paint that Lara mixed to make a shade of purple paint
Vikki [24]

Answer:

a

Generally given that the number of cups of blue to that of red paint is 3: 1 then the Lara mixed 3 cups of blue paint with 1 cup of red paint

b

The number is  x=  \frac{1}{3}

c

The price is P  = \$ 8

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The ratio of  the number of cups of blue paint to the number of cups of red paint is  r  =  3: 1

Generally given that the number of cups of blue to that of red paint is 3: 1 then the Lara mixed 3 cups of blue paint with 1 cup of red paint

Given that  1 cup of  red paint  =>   3 cups of blue paint

                 x cup of  red paint  =>  1  cup of  blue paint

So

         x=  \frac{1 *  1}{3}

=>      x=  \frac{1}{3}

Generally the unit price of a cup of blue paint is mathematically represented as

     P  =  \frac{48}{6}

=>  P  = \$ 8

Samples of 20 parts from a metal punching process are selected every hour. Typically, 1% of the parts require rework. Let X deno
Roman55 [17]

Answer:

a) P(X>np+3\sqrt{np(1-p)}=0.017

b) P(x>1)=0.190

c) P(Y>1)=0.651

Step-by-step explanation:

This a binomial experiment where success is denoted by parts that need rework.

X ∼ B(n, p); n = 20; p = 0.01

The expected value of X is: E(X) = np =20×0.01= 0.2

The variance is: Var(X) = np(1 − p) = 0.2 × 0.99 = 0.198,

The standard deviation SD(X)= \sqrt{0.198} ≈ 0.445

a) P(X>np+3\sqrt{np(1-p)}=P(X>0.2+3×0.445)=P(X>1.535)=P(X≥2)

Probability function is given by:

\frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!} *p^x*(1-p)^{(n-x)}

P(X≥2)=1-P(X<2)=1-P(X=1)-P(X=0)= 1 - \frac{20!}{1!(20-1)!} *(0.01)^{1}*(1-0.01)^{(20-1)}-\frac{20!}{0!(20-0)!} *(0.01)^{0}*(1-0.01)^{(20-0)}

P(X≥2)=1-0.165-0.818=0.017

b) p=0.04

P(x>1)=P(x≥2)= 1 - P(x=1) - P(x=0)= 1 - \frac{20!}{0!(20-1)!} *(0.04)^{1}*(1-0.04)^{(20-1)} - \frac{20!}{0!(20-0)!} *(0.04)^{0}*(1-0.04)^{(20-0)}

P(x>1)= 1 - 0.368 - 0.442=0.190

c) In this case we consider p=0.19 (Probability that X exceeds 1)

In this experiment Y is the number of hours and n= 5 hours.

Then, we check the probability in each hour:

P(Y>1)=1- P(Y=0)

P(Y=0)=\frac{5!}{0!(5-0)!} *(0.19)^{0}*(1-0.19)^{(5-0)}=0.349

P(Y>1)=1-0.349=0.651
