PLEASEEEE I NEED HELP!!!! Find k in the following arithmetic sequence: 4k-k^2, 3k, k

1 answer:

3 0

3k - (k-2) = (k-2) - (k+7) 3k = (k-2) - (k+7) + (k-2) 3k = 2(k-2) - (k+7) 3k = 2k - 4 - k - 7 3k = k - 11 2k = -11
k = -5.5

Solve the system by elimination <br> x + 2y = -14 <br> x - y = 13

zimovet [89]

Answer:

1 {x+2y= -14

2{x-y=13

x+2y= -14

2x-2y= 26

3x= -14+26

3x/3= 12/3

x= 4

while x-y=13

4-y=13

-y= 13-4

-y=9

-y/-1=9/-1

y= -9

An optical inspection system is used to distinguish among different part types. The probability of a correct classification of a

Whitepunk [10]

Answer: $\mu=2.88\ \&\ \sigma^2=0.115$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The probability of a correct classification of any part is : p=0.96

sample size : n= 3

The formula to find the mean and variance for binomial distribution is given by :-

$\mu=np\\\\\sigma^2=np(1-p)$

Let the random variable X denote the number of parts that are correctly classified.

The, for the given situation, we have

$\mu=3(0.96)=2.88\\\\\sigma^2=(3)(0.96)(1-0.96)=0.1152\approx0.115$

Hence, the mean and variance of X are 2.88 and 0.115 respectively.
