Out of a salary of $4500, I kept 1/3 as savings. Out of the remaining money, I spend 50% on food and 20% on house rent. How much

jeka94

Answer:

$2100

Step-by-step explanation:

1/3 of 4500 is 1500

to find 1/3 of a number is to multiply by 1/3

1/3 * 4500 = 1500

$1500 is for savings

subtract 1500 from 4500

4500 - 1500 = 3000

the remaining money is $3000

to find 50% of something, divide by 2

3000/2 = 1500

$1500 is spent on food.

20% of 3000 is 600

to find 20% of something, multiply the decimal value (0.2)

0.2 * 3000 = 600

$600 are spent on rent.

$450 leftover

1500 + 600 = 2100

Food and rent cost $2100

hope this helps:)

A stationary store has decided to accept a large shipment of ball-point pens if an inspection of 17 randomly selected pens yield

Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

0.762 = 76.2% probability that this shipment is accepted

Step-by-step explanation:

For each pen, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it is defective, or it is not. The probability of a pen being defective is independent from other pens. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

In which $C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

And p is the probability of X happening.

17 randomly selected pens

This means that $n = 17$

(a) Find the probability that this shipment is accepted if 10% of the total shipment is defective. (Use 3 decimal places.)

This is $P(X \leq 2)$ when $p = 0.1$ . So

$P(X \leq 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2)$

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 0) = C_{17,0}.(0.1)^{0}.(0.9)^{17} = 0.167$

$P(X = 1) = C_{17,1}.(0.1)^{1}.(0.9)^{16} = 0.315$

$P(X = 2) = C_{17,2}.(0.1)^{2}.(0.9)^{15} = 0.280$

$P(X \leq 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) = 0.167 + 0.315 + 0.280 = 0.762$

0.762 = 76.2% probability that this shipment is accepted
