Answer:

A 1.4% of the total connectors are expected to fail during the warranty period.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's assume a population of 1000 connectors (to make the math easiest) and let's analize the dry connectors.  

Of the 1000 connectors, 900 are kept dry. and of that number, 9 are the ones that fails during the warranty period.  (90% of 1000 is 900. 1% of 900 is 9)

Of the 1000 connectors, 100 are wet. And of that number, 5 are connectors that will fail during the warranty period. (10% of 1000 is 100, and 5% of 100 is 5)

So overall we have 14 connectors that will fail from 1000 connectors.

That is a 1.4% of the total samples.

Leah drives 45 miles per hour for 2 hours then 32 miles per hour for 90 minutes . What is her average speed
Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

 =39.42857143 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the average speed, we need to the total distance and the total time

Distance 1

45 miles for 2 hours

45*2 = 90 miles

Distance 2

90 minutes * 1 hour/60 minutes = 1.5 hours

32 miles * 1.5 hours =48 miles

The total distance = 90+48 = 138 miles

The total time = 2 +1.5 = 3.5 hour

The average speed = total distance/ total time

                                  = 138/3.5

                                  =39.42857143 miles per hour

Rosetta listed her assets and liabilities on a personal balance sheet.
avanturin [10]

Answer:

$50,000

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the amount received after paying off the mortgage is shown below

= Value of the house - mortgage amount

= $150,000 - $100,000

= $50,000

By deducting the mortgage amount from the value of the house we can get the amount received and the same is shown in the computation part

Since in the question it is given that the Rosetta sells her house and paid off mortgage so only these two items are considered and others are to be ignored
