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.

Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

y = 3x - 11      

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

y = mx + b          Slope Intercept Form

Step 2:

y = 3x + b        Input Slope

Step 3:

- 5 = 3 ( 2 ) + b        Input x and y values

Step 4:

- 5 = 6 + b          Multiply

Step 5:

- 11 = b        Subtract 6 on both sides

Answer:

y = 3x - 11

Ghella [55]
Your answer would be 518 Cubic inches.

18.5 * 7 = 129.5
129.5 * 8 = 1036 (Full planter aka not what we want)
If we take the height and divide it be 2 then we would get 4in (halfway full)
 So 129.5 * 4 = 518 Cu.

I hope I helped!
