Answer: Our required probability is 0.947.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of light bulbs selected = 30

Probability that the light bulb produced in a facility are defective = 2.8% = 0.028

We need to find the probability that fewer than 3 defective bulbs are found.

We will use "Binomial distribution":

n = 30, p = 0.028

so, P(X>3)=P(X=0)+P(X=1)+P(X=2)

So, it becomes,

P(X=0)=(1-0.0.28)^{30}=0.426

and

P(X=1)=^{30}C_1(0.028)(0.972)^{29}=0.368\\\\P(X=2)=^{30}C_2(0.028)^2(0.972)^28=0.153

So, the probability that fewer than three defective bulbs are defective is given by

0.426+0.368+0.153\\\\=0.947

• Imagine we are using these two points to draw a triangle where new point E is a right angle with coordinates (-1, -9)
• FE = 5
• EC = 4
• FE^2 + EC^2 = FC^2
• (25) + (16) = 41 = FC^2
• FC = square root(41)

Hello, how was your day, help? ^ ^<br> solve for x
Natali5045456 [20]

Hi there!  

»»————- ★ ————-««

I believe your answer is:  

\boxed{x=100}

»»————- ★ ————-««  

Here’s why:  

  • Recall the Triangle Angle Sum Theorem: The three angles of all triangles add up to a sum of 180°.
  • We will set up an equation based on this and then solve.

⸻⸻⸻⸻

\boxed{\text{Solve for 'x':}}\\\\58 + 22 + x = 180\\-----------\\\rightarrow 80 + x = 180\\\\\rightarrow 80 - 80 + x = 180 - 80\\\\\rightarrow \boxed{x=100}

⸻⸻⸻⸻

»»————- ★ ————-««  

Hope this helps you. I apologize if it’s incorrect.
