A stationary store has decided to accept a large shipment of ball-point pens if an inspection of 17 randomly selected pens yield

Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

0.762 = 76.2% probability that this shipment is accepted

Step-by-step explanation:

For each pen, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it is defective, or it is not. The probability of a pen being defective is independent from other pens. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

In which $C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

And p is the probability of X happening.

17 randomly selected pens

This means that $n = 17$

(a) Find the probability that this shipment is accepted if 10% of the total shipment is defective. (Use 3 decimal places.)

This is $P(X \leq 2)$ when $p = 0.1$ . So

$P(X \leq 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2)$

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 0) = C_{17,0}.(0.1)^{0}.(0.9)^{17} = 0.167$

$P(X = 1) = C_{17,1}.(0.1)^{1}.(0.9)^{16} = 0.315$

$P(X = 2) = C_{17,2}.(0.1)^{2}.(0.9)^{15} = 0.280$

$P(X \leq 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) = 0.167 + 0.315 + 0.280 = 0.762$

0.762 = 76.2% probability that this shipment is accepted

What is the explict rule for the sequence 12,22,32,42

icang [17]

The explicit rule for given sequence is:

$a_n=2+10n$

Further explanation:

We have to determine first of all if the sequence is arithmetic or geometric.

If the difference of two consecutive terms is same then the sequence is arithmetic sequence
If the ratio of two consecutive terms is same then the sequence is geometric sequence

Given sequence is:

12,22,32,42

$a_1=12\\a_2=22\\a_3=32\\.......\\Let\\d=Common\ difference\\d=a_2-a_1=22-12=10\\d=a_3-a_2=32-22=10$

The common difference is 10 which is same for all consecutive terms. So the sequence is an arithmetic sequence.

The general formula for arithmetic sequence is:

$a_n=a_1+(n-1)d\\Here,\\a_n\ is\ the\ nth\ term\\a_1\ is\ the\ first\ term\\d\ is\ the\ common\ difference$

Putting the values of a1 and d

$a_n= 12+(n-1)(10)\\a_n=12+10n-10\\a_n=2+10n$

The explicit rule for given sequence is:

$a_n=2+10n$

10% of 110 = 11
20%= 11 x 2 = 22

The sum of two numbers is the same as four times the smaller number. If twice the larger is decreased by the smaller, the result

liraira [26]

The two numbers are 6 and 18

Step-by-step explanation:

The given is:

The sum of two numbers is the same as four times the smaller number
If twice the larger is decreased by the smaller, the result is 30

We need to find the the numbers

Assume that the smaller number is x and the larger number is y

∵ The smaller number = x

∵ The larger number = y

∵ The sum of the two numbers is the same as four times the

smaller number

- That means add the two numbers and equate the sum by four

times x

∴ x + y = 4x

- Subtract both sides by x

∴ y = 3x ⇒ (1)

∵ Twice the larger number is decreased by the smaller number,

the result is 30

- That means multiply y by 2 and subtract x from the product,

then equate the difference by 30

∴ 2y - x = 30 ⇒ (2)

- Substitute y in equation (2) by equation (1)

∵ 2(3x) - x = 30

∴ 6x - x = 30

- Add like terms in the left hand side

∴ 5x = 30

- Divide both sides by 5

∴ x = 6

- Substitute the value of x in equation (1) to find y

∵ y = 3(6)

∴ y = 18

The two numbers are 6 and 18
