Answer:

0.021/yr or 2.1%/yr

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the quotient:

$36.75/$36.00

This comes out to 1.021,

so the inflation rate is 1.021 - 1.000 = 0.021 or 2.1%/year

Answer:

1766.3

Step-by-step explanation:

V=4 /3πr^3

= 4/3(3.14)(7.5)^3

= 4/3(3.14)(421.88)

= 4/3(1324.69)

= 1766.25

= 1766.3

I hope this is right!

The Chocolate House specializes in hand-dipped chocolates for special occasions. Three employees do all of the product packaging

kirza4 [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

given that the Chocolate House specializes in hand-dipped chocolates for special occasions. Three employees do all of the product packaging

Clerk I II III total

Pack 0.33 0.23 0.44 1

Defective 0.02 0.025 0.015

Pack&def 0.0066 0.00575 0.0066 0.01895

a) probability that a randomly selected box of chocolates was packed by Clerk 2 and does not contain any defective chocolate

= P(II clerk) -P(II clerk and defective) = $0.23-0.00575=0.22425$

b) the probability that a randomly selected box contains defective chocolate=P(I and def)+P(ii and def)+P(iiiand def)

=0.01895

c) Suppose a randomly selected box of chocolates is defective. The probability that it was packaged by Clerk 3

=P(clerk 3 and def)/P(defective)

= $\frac{0.0066}{0.01895} \\=0.348285$

The probability that an egg on a production line is cracked is 0.01. Two eggs are selected at random from the production line. F

musickatia [10]

Answer:

$P(X \geq 1)=1-P(X$

$P(X=0)=(2C0)(0.01)^0 (1-0.01)^{2-0}=0.9801$

And replacing we got:

$P(X \geq 1) = 1-0.9801 = 0.0199$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X the random variable of interest "number of craked eggs", on this case we now that:

$X \sim Binom(n=2, p=0.01)$

The probability mass function for the Binomial distribution is given as:

$P(X)=(nCx)(p)^x (1-p)^{n-x}$

Where (nCx) means combinatory and it's given by this formula:

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

And we want to find this probability:

$P(x \geq 1)=1-P(X$

And we can find the probability:

$P(X=0)=(2C0)(0.01)^0 (1-0.01)^{2-0}=0.9801$

And replacing we got:

$P(X \geq 1) = 1-0.9801 = 0.0199$
