Answer:
Equation:
Solve for n: n = 112
Step-by-step explanation:
To first set up the equation, you need to look at the verbal description and translate into numbers and operations:
'three fourths a number' =
'plus 8' = + 8
'is' =
'20 less' = - 20
'the number' = n
Put the expressions together:
'three fourths a number plus 8':
'20 less than the number': n - 20
Set them equal to each other and solve:
Add 20 to both sides:
Subtract from both sides:
Multiply both sides by :
Solve for n: n = 112
Yeah I think x=12y on this one correct me if I’m wrong
The first statement is true.
The second statement is false.
The third statement is true.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
-- total
--- defective
--- selected
Required
The probability of rejecting the batch
This means that at least one of the selected piece is defected.
So, we first calculate the probability that all the selected piece are accepted.
So, we have:
The denominator decreases by 1 because it is a probability without replacement; 180 is subtracted from the numerator to represent the number of non-defective CDs
So, we have:
Using the complement rule, the probability that the batch will be rejected is:
