Answer and explanation:

Given : Strands Copper wire from a manufacturer are analyzed forstrenghth and conductivity. The Results from 100 strands are as follows :

                                                 Strength Strength

                                                    High             Low

High conductivity                         74                8

Low conductivity                         15                3

To find :

a) If a stand is randomly selected, the probability that is conductivity is high and its strength is high

The favorable outcome is 74

The probability is given by,

P=\frac{74}{100}=0.74

b) If a stand is randomly selected, the probability that its conductivity is low or  strength is low

Conductivity is low A= 15+3=18

Strength is low B= 8+3=11

Conductivity is low and  strength is low A\cap B=3

Probability is given by,

P(A\cup B)=P(A)+P(B)-P(A\cap B)

P(A\cup B)=\frac{18}{100}+\frac{11}{100}-\frac{3}{100}

P(A\cup B)=0.18+0.11-0.03

P(A\cup B)=0.26

c) Consider the event that a strand low conductivity and the event that the strand has a low strength. Are these tow events mutually exclusive?

Since the events the stand has low conductivity and the stand has low strength  are not mutually exclusive, since there exists some cases in which both the  events coincide. i.e. Intersection of both the events exists with probability 0.03.

For each given p, let Z have a binomial distribution with parameters p and N. Suppose that N is itself binomially distributed wi
8090 [49]

Explanation:

Lets interpret Z with M trials. First we have M trials, each trial can be a success or not. The number of success is called N. Each trial that is a success becomes a trial, and if it is a success it becomes a success for Z. Thus, in order for a trial to be successful, it needs first to be successful for the random variable N (and it is with probability q), and given that, it should be a success among the N trials of the original definition of Z (with probability p).

This gives us that each trial has probability pq of being successful. Note that this probability is pq independently of the results of the other trials, because the results of the trials of both N and the original definition of Z are independent. This shows us that Z is the total amount of success within M independent trials of an experiment with pq probability of success in each one. Therefore, Z has Binomial distribution with parameters pq and M.

5tanx-2cotx+1=0...... .
Verdich [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

5(tanx)^2 -2 +tanx=0

let tanx=y

5y^2 + y-2=0

y=0.5403 or y= -0.7403

tanx=0.5403

x=arctan(0.5403)

x=28.38°

or

tanx=-0.7403

x=arctan(-0.7403)

x=143.49°

The monthly budget for the front of the house is $9,000. You spent 6% of the budget on fresh flowers. How much did you spend on
adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

$540

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we are paying 6% of the money on flowers we need to multiply our budget by .06. Let x equal the amount of money we payed for flowers.

x=9000*.06

Multiple the two numbers

x=540

We payed $540 for the flowers

Help. I need both. Please
Darya [45]
Anything to the power of 0 is 1

So for the top, 2^0 = 1
For the bottom, 10^0 = 1


It is not 0, because anything that ends with 0/0 is <em>undetermined</em>, and will not result in an answer

hope this helps
