Answer: a) 0.0000002, b) 15, c) 0.99996.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

n = 500

p = 3% = 0.03

q = 1-0.03 = 0.97

So, we will use "Binomial distribution".

(a) What is the probability that none fail during the warranty period?

P(X=0)=^{500}C_0(0.03)^0(0.97)^{500}=0.0000002

(b) What is the expected number of failures during the warranty period?

E(X)=np=500\times 0.03=15

(c) What is the probability that more than 2 units fail during the warranty period?

P(X>2)=1-\sum _{x=0}^2P(X=x)=0.99996

Hence, a) 0.0000002, b) 15, c) 0.99996.

Answer:

<em>2 solutions</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression

2m/2m+3 - 2m/2m-3 = 1

Find the LCM of the expression at the left hand side:

2m(2m-3)-2m(2m+3)/(2m+3)(2m-3) = 1

open the bracket

4m²-6m-4m²-6m/(4m²-9) = 1

Cross multiply

4m²-6m-4m²-6m = 4m²  - 9

-12m = 4m²  - 9

4m²  - 9+12m = 0

4m² +12m-9 = 0

<em>Since the resulting equation is a quadratic equation, it will have 2 solutions since the degree of the equation is 2</em>

What is the period of y = 8 cos (5pie x + 3pie/2)-9<br> Give an exact value. Units
zzz [600]

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow y=Acos(Bx+C)+D

  • This is the general formula and the period is 2π/B

Now our given function

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow y=8cos\left(5\pi x+\dfrac{3\pi}{2}\right)-9

On comparing we get

  • A=8
  • B=5π
  • C=3π/2
  • D=-9

Period:-

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow \dfrac{2\pi}{B}

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow \dfrac{2\pi}{5\pi}

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow \dfrac{2}{5}

AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:

1. We know that 1 yard is 36 inches, therefore, 50 yards expressed in inches is:

<u> (50)(36)=1800in</u>

2. If he is 50 yards from school and the map shows that the school is 34 inches from his current location, when it shows 3 inches the real distance is:

<u> (1800)(3in)/24in=158.82</u>

3. If you can to express it in yards:

<u> 158.82/36=4.41yd</u>

<h2><u>Therefore, the answer is: 158.82 inches or 4.41 yards.</u></h2>
