Answer:

0.095 or 9.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

Puncture → P(P) = 0.06

Smashed corner → P(S) = 0.04

Puncture and smashed corner → P(P and S) = 0.005

The probability that a randomly selected carton has a puncture or a smashed corner is given by the probability of a puncture, added to the probability of a smashed corner, subtracted by the probability of both:

P(P\ or\ S) =P(P)+P(S) - P(P\ and\ S)\\P(P\ or\ S) =0.06+0.04-0.005\\P(P\ or\ S) =0.095=9.5\%

The probability is 0.095 or 9.5%.

2 cot^2t sin t - cot^2t = 0
Eduardwww [97]

2 cot²(<em>t </em>) sin(<em>t </em>) - cot²(<em>t </em>) = 0

cot²(<em>t </em>) (2 sin(<em>t </em>) - 1) = 0

cot²(<em>t </em>) = 0   <u>or</u>   2 sin(<em>t</em> ) - 1 = 0

cot(<em>t</em> ) = 0   <u>or</u>   sin(<em>t</em> ) = 1/2

cos(<em>t</em> ) / sin(<em>t</em> ) = 0   <u>or</u>   sin(<em>t</em> ) = 1/2

cos(<em>t</em> ) = 0   <u>or</u>   sin(<em>t</em> ) = 1/2

[<em>t</em> = cos⁻¹(0) + 2<em>nπ</em>   <u>or</u>   <em>t</em> = cos⁻¹(0) - <em>π</em> + 2<em>nπ</em>]

  <u>or</u>   [<em>t</em> = sin⁻¹(1/2) + 2<em>nπ</em>   <u>or</u>   <em>t</em> = <em>π</em> - sin⁻¹(1/2) + 2<em>nπ</em>]

(where <em>n</em> is any integer)

<em>t</em> = <em>π</em>/2 + 2<em>nπ</em>   <u>or</u>   <em>t</em> = -<em>π</em>/2 + 2<em>nπ</em>   <u>or</u>   <em>t</em> = <em>π</em>/6 + 2<em>nπ</em>   <u>or</u>   <em>t</em> = 5<em>π</em>/6 + 2<em>nπ</em>

Note that the first two families of solutions overlap and can be condensed, so that

<em>t</em> = <em>π</em>/2 + <em>nπ</em>   <u>or</u>   <em>t</em> = <em>π</em>/6 + 2<em>nπ</em>   <u>or</u>   <em>t</em> = 5<em>π</em>/6 + 2<em>nπ</em>
