In a batch of 440 water purifiers, 8 were found to be defective. What is the probability that a water purifier chosen at random
LiRa [457]

Answer:

1.8% or 1.818181%

Step-by-step explanation:

If in a batch of 440 water purifiers, we find 8 to be defective.

Then the probability of the next purifier being defective is 8/440

In percentage = 8/440 * 100

=> 8/44 * 10

=> 8/22 * 5

=> 40/22

=> 20 / 11

20/11 is roughly 1.8181818

Rounding it to the nearest tenth, we get 1.8%

If my answer helped, kindly mark me as the brainliest!!

Thank You!!

The sides of a triangle are x , x +1 , 2 x -1 and its area is x root of 10 .Find the value of x.
VARVARA [1.3K]


Ok, I'm going to start off saying there is probably an easier way of doing this that's right in front of my face, but I can't see it so I'm going to use Heron's formula, which is A=√[s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)] where A is the area, s is the semiperimeter (half of the perimeter), and a, b, and c are the side lengths.

Substitute the known values into the formula:

x√10=√{[(x+x+1+2x-1)/2][({x+x+1+2x-1}/2)-x][({x+x+1+2x-1}/2)-(x+1)][({x+x+1+2x-1}/2)-(2x-1)]}

Simplify:

<span>x√10=√{[4x/2][(4x/2)-x][(4x/2)-(x+1)][(4x/2)-(2x-1)]}</span>

<span>x√10=√[2x(2x-x)(2x-x-1)(2x-2x+1)]</span>

<span>x√10=√[2x(x)(x-1)(1)]</span>

<span>x√10=√[2x²(x-1)]</span>

<span>x√10=√(2x³-2x²)</span>

<span>10x²=2x³-2x²</span>

<span>2x³-12x²=0</span>

<span>2x²(x-6)=0</span>

<span>2x²=0 or x-6=0</span>

<span>x=0 or x=6</span>

<span>Therefore, x=6 (you can't have a length of 0).</span>
