Answer:

Sd(X) =\sqrt{1.2}=1.095

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

The binomial distribution is a "DISCRETE probability distribution that summarizes the probability that a value will take one of two independent values under a given set of parameters. The assumptions for the binomial distribution are that there is only one outcome for each trial, each trial has the same probability of success, and each trial is mutually exclusive, or independent of each other".

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable of interest, on this case we now that:

X \sim Binom(n=5, p=0.4)

The probability mass function for the Binomial distribution is given as:

P(X)=(nCx)(p)^x (1-p)^{n-x}

Where (nCx) means combinatory and it's given by this formula:

nCx=\frac{n!}{(n-x)! x!}

The mean for the binomial distribution is given by:

E(X) =np=5*0.4=2

And the variance is given by:

Var(X) = np(1-p) =5*0.4*(1-0.4)=1.2

And the deviation is just the square root of the variance so we got:

Sd(X) =\sqrt{1.2}=1.095

An assembly consists of two mechanical components. Suppose that the probabilities that the first and second components meet spec
harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

P(X = 0) = 0.0208, P(X = 1) = 0.2484, P(X = 2) = 0.7308

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's define the following events

A: the first component meet specification

B: the second component meet specification

P(A) = 0.87

P(B) = 0.84

Let X be the random variable that represents the number of components in the assembly that meet specifications. Because there are only two mechanical components in the assembly, X can only take the values 0, 1, 2.

P(X = 0) = P(the first component does not meet specification and the second component does not meet specification) =  

P(A^{c}\cap B^{c}) = P(A^{c})P(B^{c}) (because of independence)  

= (0.13)(0.16) = 0.0208

P(X = 1) = P(only one component meet specification) = P[(the first component meet specification and the second component does not meet specification) or (the first component does not meet specification and the second component meet specification)] =  

P[(A\cap B^{c})\cup (A^{c}\cap B)] = P(A\cap B^{c}) + P(A^{c}\cap B)= (because sets are mutually exclusive)

P(A)P(B^{c}) + P(A^{c})P(B)= (because of independence)

= (0.87)(0.16) + (0.13)(0.84) = 0.2484

P(X = 2) = P(both components meet specifications) =  

P(A\cap B) = P(A)P(B) (because of independence)

= (0.87)(0.84)

= 0.7308

70 decreased by 80% in math
pantera1 [17]
The answer for your math problem is 55.2. To get this, you do 70 times 0.80, which gives us 56. Then, subtract it by 0.80.
