Answer:

0.9995

Step-by-step explanation:

10% = 0.10

1 - 0.10 = 0.9

n = number of light bulbs = 7

we calculate this using binomial distribution.

p(x) = nCx × p^x(1-p)^n-x

our question says at most 4 is defective

= (7C0 × 0.1⁰ × 0.9⁷) + (7C1 × 0.1¹ × 0.9⁶) + (7C2 × 0.1² × 0.9⁵) + (7C3 × 0.1³ × 0.9⁴) + (7C4 × 0.1⁴ × 0.9³)

= 0.478 + 0.372 + 0.1239 + 0.023 + 0.0026

= 0.9995

we have 0.9995 probability that at most 4 light bulbs are defective.

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer: C

Step-by-step explanation: As they are interested in the amount of time a client exercises in a week, the population would be all the clients that use the fitness center for a given week.

Clients that do not go on this week are not part of the population. The amount of time is what they want to know, so it cannot be the population.

Whats the answer to -3a+8-8(7-2a)​
Serga [27]

Answer:3.1875

Step-by-step explanation: Simplifying

-3 + 8 + -8(7 + -2a) = 0

-3 + 8 + (7 * -8 + -2a * -8) = 0

-3 + 8 + (-56 + 16a) = 0

Combine like terms: -3 + 8 = 5

5 + -56 + 16a = 0

Combine like terms: 5 + -56 = -51

-51 + 16a = 0

Solving

-51 + 16a = 0

Solving for variable 'a'.

Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '51' to each side of the equation.

-51 + 51 + 16a = 0 + 51

Combine like terms: -51 + 51 = 0

0 + 16a = 0 + 51

16a = 0 + 51

Combine like terms: 0 + 51 = 51

16a = 51

Divide each side by '16'.

a = 3.1875

Simplifying

a = 3.1875
