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.

Itzik 45 seconds to fill an 18 down container how long will it take to fill a 40 gallon container
Akimi4 [234]
When answering this question, I'm assuming "18 down" means 18 gallons
To find the answer, we can divide:
40/18 = 5
( This basically means that there are 5 containers in the 40 gallon container)
knowing this:
45*5 = 225
(Basically solves the time to fill 5 containers)
It will take 225 seconds

Andru [333]

Answer:

{-3, 3}

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 - 9 = 0 can be written in factored form as (x -3)(x + 3) = 0.  Letting each factor equal zero separately and solving for x, we get x:  {-3, 3}
