A consumer organization inspecting new cars found that many had appearance defects (dents, scratches, paint chips, etc.). While

none had more than three of these defects, 7% had exactly three, 11% exactly two, and 21% only one defect. Find the expected number of appearance defects in a new car and the standard deviation.

Answer:

The expected number of appearance defects in a new car  = 0.64

standard deviation = 0.93(approximately)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given -

7% had exactly three, 11% exactly two, and 21% only one defect in cars.

Let X be no of defects in a car

P(X=3) = .07 , P(X=2) = .11 , P(X=3) = .21

P(X=0 ) = 1 - .07 - .11 - .21 = 0.61

The expected number of appearance defects in a new car =

E(X) = \nu = = \sum X P(X) =3\times 0.07 + 2\times0.11 + 3\times0.21 + 0\times0.61 = 0.64

\sigma^{2}  = variation of E(X) = \sum (X - \nu) ^{2}P(X) = (3 - 0.64) ^{2}\times0.07 + (2 - 0.64) ^{2}\times0.11 + (1 - 0.64) ^{2}\times0.21 + (0 - 0.64) ^{2}\times0.61

 = (2.36) ^{2}\times0.07 + (1.36) ^{2}\times0.11 + (.36) ^{2}\times0.21 + ( 0.64) ^{2}\times0.61 = 0.8704

standard deviation  =  \sqrt{\sigma^{2}} = \sqrt{0.8704^{2}} = 0.93(approximately)

The perimeter of a rectangle is 16 inches. The equation that represents the perimeter of the rectangle is , where l represents t
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

A. 7 in.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that the perimeter of a rectangle is 16 inches. The equation that represents the perimeter of the rectangle is , where l represents the length of the rectangle and w represents the width of the rectangle.

We know that perimeter of rectangle is 2 times the sum of width and length of rectangle.

\text{Perimeter}=2(l+w)

\text{16 in}=2(l+w)

\frac{\text{16 in}}{2}=\frac{2(l+w)}{2}

\text{8 in}=l+w

To be a rectangle length cannot be 8 as length and width of the rectangle is 8 inches.

Therefore, 7 inches the possible value for the length of the rectangle.

Find the slope of the line given two points:
vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is option C</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a line given two points can be found by using the formula

m =  \frac{ y_2 - y _ 1}{x_ 2 - x_ 1} \\

where

(x1 , y1) and (x2 , y2) are the points

From the question the points are

(8, 10) and (-7, 14)

The slope is

m =  \frac{14 - 10}{ - 7 - 8}  =  \frac{4}{ - 15}  =  -  \frac{4}{15}  \\

We have the final answer as

-  \frac{4}{15}  \\

Hope this helps you
