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%

Answer:

y = 4x+6

The input is 11 when the output is 50

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the slope of this function using 2 points

(3,18) and (0,6) are two points

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1) is the formula for slope

  =(6-18)/(0-3)

  -12/-3

  =4

The slope is 4

We know the y intercept.  It is the value when x =0.  The y intercept is 6

We can use the slope intercept form of the equation

y = mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y intercept.

y = 4x+6

We want to know the input when the output is 50 (or y=50)

50 = 4x+6

Subtract 6 from each side

50-6 = 4x+6-6

44 = 4x

Divide by 4

44/4 = 4x/4

11=x

The input is 11
