Answer & Step-by-step explanation:

2a - b : 2a + b = 1 : 2

2a - b = 1

- Elimination

2a + b = 2

-b - (b) = -1

-2b = -1

b = 0.5

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

2a + b = 2 Substitution

2a + 0.5 = 2

2a = 1.5

a = 0.75

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

a:b

0.75 : 0.5

3/4 : 1/2

Hope this helps!!!

Consider the probability that at least 93 out of 154 CDs will not be defective. Assume the probability that a given CD will not

Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

0.5962

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

p = 61% = 0.61

q = 1 - p = 1 - 0.61 = 0.39

n = 154 ; x = 93

Using the binomial probability formula :

P(x =x) = nCx * p^x * (1 - p)^(n - x)

P(x>=93) = p(x=93)+p(x=94)+...+p(x=n)

P(x>= 93) = 0.59619

P(x>= 93) = 0.5962
