Each of 11 refrigerators of a certain type has been returned to a distributor because of an audible, high-pitched, oscillating n

oise when the refrigerators are running. Suppose that 7 of these refrigerators have a defective compressor and the other 4 have less serious problems. If the refrigerators are examined in random order, let X be the number among the first 6 examined that have a defective compressor.

Answer:

The correct answer is 1,51%

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the probability  equally likely of the first 6 examined that have a defective compressor, we use the following formula

P=# of possibilities that meet the condition / #of equally likely possibilities.

As there are multiple events ,  and all must be achieve, we multiply the probabilities.

P1=7 / 11

P2=6 / 10

P3=5 / 9

P4=4 / 8

P5=3 / 7

P6=2 / 6

P(x)=7 / 11*6 / 10*5 / 9*4 / 8*3 / 7*2 / 6=0,01515151515

P(x)=1,51%

How do you convert 10/6 into a mixed number
Westkost [7]
Well, First you want to find out how many times six can go into ten. Since its only once, you immediately get the number 1 as your whole number. Now because you've taken six out of ten you're left with 4/6. The mixed number would be 1 and 4/6 or 1 and 2/3 if you're simplifying

Margarita [4]

Answer:

46 ≥ 2m + 4

m ≥ 21

Step-by-step explanation:

At least is ≥

Karen's age = 46 years old

Mary's age = m years old

Karen is at least 4 years more than twice mary's age (m).

46 ≥ 2m + 4

46 - 4 ≥ 2m

42 ≥ 2m

m ≥ 42/2

m ≥ 21
