Let us say the two numbers are x and y and x>y.

The data we have are;

Difference between the numbers are 12.

3 times larger number is equal to 7 times smaller number.

Then we can write;

 ----(1)

 ----(2)

 

From (1) we can say 

Then substituting  to (2) gives;





      

        

 

Then;

What are the angles sizes
Rus_ich [418]
Answers:
(x+2) = 55 degrees

x = 53 degrees

the given is 72 degrees


Explanation:
A triangle always equals 180 degrees. It was given that one of the angle measures is 72 degrees. 180-72=108. Now I need to find the value of x. (x+2)+x=108. Solving this equation I get x=53. Substitute this back into the angle measures and u get the answers as stated above.

Binomial distribution formula: P(x) = (n  k) p^k * (1 - p)^n - k

a) Probability that four parts are defective = 0.01374

P(4 defective) = (25 4) (0.04)^4 * (0.96)^21

P(4 defective) = 0.01374

b) Probability that at least one part is defective = 0.6396

Find the probability that 0 parts are defective and subtract that probability from 1.

P(0 defective) = (25 0) (0.04)^0 * (0.96)^25

P(0 defective) = 0.3604

1 - 0.3604 = 0.6396

c) Probability that 25 parts are defective = approximately 0

P(25 defective) = (25 25) (0.04)^25 * (0.96)^0

P(25 defective) = approximately 0

d) Probability that at most 1 part is defective = 0.7358

Find the probability that 0 and 1 parts are defective and add them together.

P(0 defective) = 0.3604 (from above)

P(1 defective) = (25 1) (0.04)^1 * (0.96)^24

P(1 defective) = 0.3754

P(at most 1 defective) = 0.3604 + 0.3754 = 0.7358

e) Mean = 1 | Standard Deviation = 0.9798

mean = n * p

mean = 25 * 0.04 = 1

stdev = \sqrt{np(1-p)}

stdev = \sqrt{(25)(0.04)(1-0.04)} = 0.9798

Hope this helps!! :)
