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.

Let, the first (smaller) number = x
Larger number = 8x
Then, 8x - x = 70
7x = 70
x = 70/7
x = 10
& 8(10) = 80

In short, Your Numbers would be, 10 & 80

What is the density of an object having a mass of 25 g and a volume of 8.0 cm cubed
weqwewe [10]

Answer:

3.125 g/cm³.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for density/mass/volume is d = m/v, where d is density in grams per cm cubed, m is in grams, and v is in cm cubed.

In this case, m = 25 and v = 8.0.

d = 25 / 8.0

d = 25 / 8

d = 3.125.

So, the density of the object is 3.125 g/cm cubed.

Hope this helps!

If you select a card at random, what is the probability of getting:A number smaller than 5 (counting the ace as a 1)?
garri49 [273]

4 Aces, 4 2's, 4 3's 4 4's

= 16 cards total out of 52 cards

 so probability would be 16/52 which reduces to 4/13
