A group of four components is known to contain two defectives. An inspector tests the components one at a time until the two def

ectives are located. Once she locates the two defectives, she stops testing, but the second defective is tested to ensure accuracy. Let Y denote the number of the test on which the second defective is found. Find the probability distribution for Y.

Answer:

when Y = 2, P(2) = 1/6 = 0.167

when Y = 3, P(3) = 2/6 = 0.333

when Y = 4, P(4) = 3/6 = 0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of possible ways to choose 2 components for defectives out of 4 components = 4C2 = 6

Y can only take values of 2, 3 and 4

So, Probability of Y = P(Y) = 1C(Y-1) / 6

when Y = 2, P(2) = 1/6 = 0.167

when Y = 3, P(3) = 2/6 = 0.333

when Y = 4, P(4) = 3/6 = 0.5

17/9 15 divided 6 divided 30 divided and 3^3 from least to greatest
qaws [65]

I assume you mean: Order the following from least to greatest:

17/9, 15 divided by 6, 30, and 3^3

17/9 = 1 8/9

15/6 = 2 1/2

3^3 = 9

So it would be: 17/9, 15 divided by 6, 3^3, and 30

Make necessary adjustments if it was actually 6/30; the wording was confusing.
