Simple, multiply.

3/8*2/7

You can cross cancel the 2 and the 8, making them into a 1 and 4.

Making it,

3/4*1/7

Multiply,

3/28. This can't be simplified further; thus, 3/28 is your answer.

What multiplies to 16 and adds to 18?

KonstantinChe [14]

The number 8 is a multiple of 16, 2 x 8 = 16 . And the number 8 + 10 = 18

So, I would think it's 8.

Hope I was able to help you. :-)

A shipment of 50 precision parts including 4 that are defective is sent to an assembly plant. The quality control division selec

natali 33 [55]

Answer:

0.3968 = 39.68% probability this shipment passes inspection.

Step-by-step explanation:

The parts 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:

50 parts means that $N = 50$

4 defective means that $k = 4$

10 are chosen, which means that $n = 10$

What is the probability this shipment passes inspection?

Probability that none is defective, so:

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

$P(X = 0) = h(0,50,10,4) = \frac{C_{4,0}*C_{46,10}}{C_{50,10}} = 0.3968$

0.3968 = 39.68% probability this shipment passes inspection.

Is pie a whole number

Viktor [21]

Answer:

is pie a whole number: No

Step-by-step explanation:

Whole numbers are numbers WITHOUT fractions or decimal parts (for example 5, 10, and 30 are all WHOLE NUMBERS)

Pi is defined as: 3.14159265358979...

Pi includes decimals therefore it is NOT a whole number :)
