Answer:

35 cents ($0.35)

Step-by-step explanation:

First off, 5ft = 60 in

21 / 60 = 0.35

So, the piece of aluminum wire costs 35 cents per inch.

Eva8 [605]

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) P = (0.3)(0.2) + (0.5)(0.6) + (0.2)(0.8)

P = 0.52

(b) (0.5)(0.6) = 0.3

P = 0.3 / 0.52

P = 0.58

A package contains 12 resistors, 3 of which are defective. If 4 are selected, find the probability of getting

s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

Incomplete question, but I gave a primer on the hypergeometric distribution, which is used to solve this question, so just the formula has to be applied to find the desired probabilities.

Step-by-step explanation:

The resistors are chosen without replacement, which means that the hypergeometric distribution is used to solve this question.

Hypergeometric distribution:

The probability of x successes is given by the following formula:

$P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}$

In which:

x is the number of successes.

N is the size of the population.

n is the size of the sample.

k is the total number of desired outcomes.

Combinations formula:

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

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

In this question:

12 resistors, which means that $N = 12$

3 defective, which means that $k = 3$

4 are selected, which means that $n = 4$

To find an specific probability, that is, of x defectives:

$P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}$

$P(X = x) = h(x,12,4,3) = \frac{C_{3,x}*C_{9,4-x}}{C_{12,4}}$

Convert from scientific notation to standard form 4.83 x 10^-3

ANTONII [103]

4.83 x 10^-3 can be re-written in standard form by moving the decimal point 3 units to the left: 0.00483.

Note: If you want to be mathematically correct, please write 10^(-3), not 10^-3. If the exponent is +, you don't need the parentheses.
