A food-packaging apparatus underfills 10% of the containers. Find the probability that for any particular 10 containers the numb

Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

a) $P(X = 1) = 0.38742$

b) $P(X = 3) = 0.05740$

c) $P(X = 9) = 0.00000$

d) $P(X \geq 5) = 0.00163$

Step-by-step explanation:

For each container, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it is undefilled, or it is not. This means that we can solve this problem using the binomial probability distribution.

Binomial probability distribution:

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

In which $C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinatios of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

And p is the probability of X happening.

In this problem

There are 10 containers, so $n = 10$ .

A food-packaging apparatus underfills 10% of the containers, so $p = 0.1$ .

a) This is P(X = 1)

$P(X = 1) = C_{10,1}.(0.1)^{1}.(0.9)^{9} = 0.38742$

b) This is P(X = 3)

$P(X = 3) = C_{10,3}.(0.1)^{3}.(0.9)^{7} = 0.05740$

c) This is P(X = 9)

$P(X = 9) = C_{10,9}.(0.1)^{9}.(0.9)^{1} = 0.00000$

d) This is $P(X \geq 5)$ .

Either the number is lesser than five, or it is five or larger. The sum of the probabilities of each event is decimal 1. So:

$P(X < 5) + P(X \geq 5) = 1$

$P(X \geq 5) = 1 - P(X < 5)$

In which

$P(X < 5) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4)$

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 0) = C_{10,0}.(0.1)^{0}.(0.9)^{10} = 0.34868$

$P(X = 1) = C_{10,1}.(0.1)^{1}.(0.9)^{9} = 0.38742$

$P(X = 2) = C_{10,2}.(0.1)^{2}.(0.9)^{8} = 0.1937$

$P(X = 3) = C_{10,3}.(0.1)^{3}.(0.9)^{7} = 0.05740$

$P(X = 4) = C_{10,4}.(0.1)^{1}.(0.9)^{9} = 0.38742$

So

$P(X < 5) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) = 0.34868 + 0.38742 + 0.19371 + 0.05740 + 0.01116 = 0.99837$

Finally

$P(X \geq 5) = 1 - P(X < 5) = 1 - 0.99837 = 0.00163$

(-5/8)(X) = -0.4
(-5/8)(X) = -4/10
X = (-4/10) / (-5/8)
X = (4/10) / (5/8)
X = (4/10)(8/5)
X = (2/5)(8/5)
X = 16/25

Answer:

47.62 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

ABCD is a rhombus. Each side measures 15 cm.

m<A = 60°.

Here are some properties of a rhombus:

Opposite angles of a rhombus are congruent.

m<C = m<A = 60°

m<ADC = m<ABC

The sum of the measures of the interior angles of a quadrilateral is 360°.

The diagonals are perpendicular bisectors of each other.

m<A + m<C + m<ADC + m<ABC = 360°

60° + 60° + 2m<ADC = 360°

2m<ADC = 240°

m<ADC = 120°

Each diagonal of a rhombus bisects a pair of congruent, opposite angles.

m<ADB + m<CDB = m<ADC

m<ADB = m<CDB

m<ADB + m<ADB = 120°

m<ADB = 60°

Triangle ABD had two angles, <A and <ADB, that measure 60°. Therefore, the third angle, <ABD also measures 60°. That makes triangle ABD an equilateral triangle.

Draw segment AT.

T is the midpoint of BD. The segment AT is the perpendicular bisector of segment BD. Triangle ATD is a 30-60-90 triangle.

Using the ratio of the lengths of the sides of a 30-60-90 triangle, we can calculate the length of AT which is the radius of circle A.

TD : AT : AD

1 : √3 : 2

AD = 15 cm

TD = AD/2

AT = √3 × TD

AT = (AD√3)/2

AT = 7.5√3 = 12.99

AQ = 12.99

perimeter = QD + PB + m(arc)PTQ + BC + CD

perimeter = (15 - 12.99) + (15 - 12.99) + 60°/360° × 2π(12.99) + 15 + 15

perimeter = 47.62

Answer: perimeter = 47.62 cm
