Answer: 200 bulbs will not be defective.

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of defective bulbs to good bulbs produced each day is 2 to 10. This ratio can also be expressed as 1 to 5 by reducing to lowest terms.

The total ratio is the sum of the proportions.

Total ratio = 1 + 5 = 6

This means that if n bulbs is produced, the number of defective bulbs would be

1/6 × n

The number of non defective would be

5/6 × n

Since n = 240, then the number of bulbs that will not be defective is

5/6 × 240 = 200 bulbs

If you flip two coins 76 times, what is the best prediction possible for the number of times both coins will land on tails? ​
ioda

Answer:

38 times

Step-by-step explanation:

A coin has two sides, so there is a 50% chance it will land on either side (assuming perfect conditions and that the coin cannot land vertically). With that in mind, if you flip a coin 76 times, 50% or 1/2 of the times the coin should land on tails. That is 36 times. (Once again, this is under perfect testing conditions. In real life, you probably wouldn't get an even split after only 76 flips.)

Hope this helps :)
