Possible outcomes: defective/non defective

Applying Binomial distribution equation
p(x) = [N!/x!(N-x)!]*(p^x)(q)^N-x

Where,
p = 2% = 0.02
N = 5
And then,
q = 1-p = 1-0.02 = 0.98
x = 2
N-x = 5-2 = 3

Substituting;
p(2) = [5!/2!(5-2)!]*0.02^2*0.98^3 = 0.00376 = 0.376%

Answer:

Probability of a sample that contains exactly two defective parts is .0037 or .37%

Step-by-step explanation:

As we know if P is the probability of achieving k results in n trials then probability formula is P = \binom{n}{k}p^{K}q^{n-k}

In this formula n = number of trials

                        k = number of success

                        (n-k) = number of failures

                         p = probability of success in one trial

                         q = (1-p) = probability of failure in one trial

In this sum n = 5

                  k = 2

number failures (n-k) = (5-2) = 3

                            p = 2% which can be written as .02

                            q = 98% Which can be written as .98

Now putting these values in the formula

                        P = \binom{5}{2}(.02)^{2}(.98)^{5-2}

                        P = \binom{5}{2}(.02)^{2}(.98)^{3}

                   \binom{5}{2}= 5!/3!2!    

                                              = 5×4×3×2×1/3×2×1×2×1

                                              = 5×2 =10

                                       P = 10×(.02)²×(.98)³

                                          = .0037 or .37%

Composite figure is made up of 4 triangles and a square.

Area of Square = Length x Length 
Area of Square = 12 x 12
Area of Square= 144 cm²

Area of triangle = 1/2 x base x height
Area of triangle  = 1/2 x 12 x 8 
Area of triangle  = 48 cm²

Area of 4 Triangles = 48 x 4
Area of 4 Triangles = 192 cm²

Total Area = 144 + 192 = 336 cm² 

\Longrightarrow \boxed { \boxed { Answer : 336 cm^{2} }}

Question 6 of 6

\huge \boxed { \sf \: Answer}

We have to use the formula:

(ab) ^{n}  =  {a}^{n}  {b}^{n}

So,

(5 \times 9) ^{12}  \\  =  {5}^{12} . 9^{12}

Also, it will be

45^{12}

Hope you could understand.

If you have any query, feel free to ask.
