A battery manufacturer randomly tests 500 batteries and finds that 3 are defective.

Mathematics

To find this answer, we must first find the percentage of batteries that are defective. We can do this by dividing 3 by 500.

3 / 500 = 0.006

So our percentage of defective batteries is 0.6%.

Now, to find out how many defective batteries would be in a batch of 12000, we just need to multiply the constant (percentage of defective batteries) by the amount in the new batch.

12000 * 0.006 = 72

In a shipment of 12,000 batteries, 72 will be defective, so the correct answer choice would be B.
Hope that helped =)

Which ordered pairs are in the solution set of the system of linear inequalities? y &gt; x y &lt; x + 1 (5, –2), (3, 1), (–4, 2)
steposvetlana [31]

To check which ordered pair (point) is in the solution set of the system of given linear inequalities y>x, y<x+1; we just need to plug given points into both inequalities and check if that point satisfies both inequalities or not. If any point satisfies both inequalities then that point will be in solution.

I will show you calculation for (5,-2)

plug into y>x

-2>5

which is clearly false.

plug into y<x+1

-2<5+1

or -2<6

which is also false.

hence (5,-2) is not in the solution.

Same way if you test all the given points then you will find that none of the given points are satisfying both inequalities.

Hence answer will be "No Solution from given choices".
