Answer:
a. 1/10 or 10%
b. 1/2 or 50%
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the combination of machines 1, 2 and 3 produce 100% of the total output when added together, then the probability of choosing a bolt at random that is defective is: 5 + 2 + 3 = 10% out of 100% or 10/100, which is 1/10 or 10%.
If the bolt that is choosen at random is defective, than the probability that it came from machine 1 is 5/10 or 1/2 which is also 50%.
Area=1/2bh
h=altitude
b=legnth of base
b is 3 times h
b=3h
divide by 3
b/3=h
area=1/2bh
subsitute b/3 for h
54=1/2(b)(b/3)
multiply bothsides by 2/1
108=b(b/3)
108=(b^2)/3
multipy both sides by 3
324=b^2
square root boh sides
18=b
legnth of base=18
