<em>Answer:</em>

<em>The net speed per 24 hours is 5 - 4 = 1 foot. </em>

<em>1 ft / 24 hrs = 16 ft / x hrs </em>

<em> </em>

<em>16 * 24 hrs = 16 days (384 hrs) </em>

A delivery company has 18 vehicles in its fleet.

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer: £1517.04

Step-by-step explanation:

The fuel expenses for the vans will be calculated as:

Vans:

Since the average distance travelled per day is 198km and the average distance travelled per litre is 9km, the van would use:

= 198/9

= 22 litres

Since there are 8 vans, they'll use:

= 22 × 8 = 176 liters

Trucks:

Since the average distance travelled per day is 620km and the average distance travelled per litre is 6.2km, the truck would use:

= 620/6.2

= 100

Since there are 10 trucks, they'll use:

= 100 × 10 = 1000 liters

The amount of liters for both the van and the truck will be:

= 176 liters + 1000 liters

= 1176 liters

The fuel cost will then be:

= 1176 × 1£1.29

= £1517.04

The probability that a lab specimen contains high levels of contamination is 0.10. A group of 4 independent samples are checked.

galben [10]

Answer:

a) 0.6561

b) 0.2916

c) 0.3439

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information:

Let us treat high level of contamination as our success.

p = P(High level of contamination) = P(success) = 0.10

n = 4

The, by binomial distribution:

$P(X=x) = \binom{n}{x}.p^x.(1-p)^{n-x}\\\text{where x is the number of success}$

a) P(No high level of contamination)

We put x = 0, in the formula.

$P(X=0) = \binom{4}{0}.(0.10)^0.(1-0.10)^{4} =0.6561$

Probability that no lab specimen contain high level of contamination is 0.6561

b) P(Exactly one high level of contamination)

We put x = 1, in the formula.

$P(X=1) = \binom{4}{1}.(0.10)^1.(1-0.10)^{3} =0.2916$

Probability that no lab specimen contain high level of contamination is 0.6561

c) P(At least one contains high level of contamination)

$p(x \geq 1) = 1 - p( x = 0) = 1 - 0.6561 = 0.3439$

Probability that at least 1 lab specimen contain high level of contamination is 0.3439
