Answer: The correct option is (C) 26.

Step-by-step explanation: We are given to perform the indicated operation :

$E=15-(-11).$

We will be using the following rule of addition and subtraction :

$a-(-b)=a+b.$

Therefore, we get

$E=15-(-11)=15+11=26.$

Thus, the required value of the given expression is 26.

Option (C) is CORRECT.

Which one is the right answer?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, i mean A and B are out first thing because you don't have enough information to find out if it's true.

C is incorrect because as stated before, not enough information.

However,

You know that the angles 1-8 are all supplementary, which means that 1 and 2 can be added to make 180 degrees, as so can 3 and 4, 3 and 1. 2 and 4, blah blah blah.

In D, the angles that are being added are supplementary, because the three lines making up that weird figure is adjacent and is parallel to each other.

If you give one of the angles a degree, you know that 180-x with x being that degree, will equal the other angle on the other side of the lines.

Therefore its D.

Edit:

I just realized that theres an angle stated at the top of the screen. Still with that angle given, A and B is incorrect and the answer is still D.

2. The quality assurance department inspects its production line. The product either fails or passes the inspection. Past experi

Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

(a) $E(X) = 950$

(b) $COV = 0.007255$

Step-by-step explanation:

The given problem can be solved using binomial distribution since the product either fails or passes, the probability of failure or success is fixed and there are n repeated trials.

probability of failure = q = 0.05

probability of success = p = 1 - 0.05 = 0.95

number of trials = n = 1000

(a) What is the expected number of non-defective units?

The expected number of non-defective units is given by

$E(X) = n \times p \\\\E(X) = 1000 \times 0.95 \\\\E(X) = 950$

(b) what is the COV of the number of non-defective units?

The coefficient of variance is given by

$COV = \frac{\sigma}{E(X)}$

Where the standard deviation is given by

$\sigma = \sqrt{n \times p\times q} \\\\\sigma = \sqrt{1000 \times 0.95\times 0.05} \\\\\sigma = 6.892$

So the coefficient of variance is

$COV = \frac{6.892}{950}$

$COV = 0.007255$

(c) What is the probability of having more than 980 non-defective units?

We can use the Normal distribution as an approximation to the Binomial distribution since n is quite large and so is p.

$P(X > 980) = 1 - P(X < 980)\\\\P(X > 980) = 1 - P(Z < \frac{x - \mu}{\sigma} )\\\\$

We need to consider the continuity correction factor whenever we use continuous probability distribution (Normal distribution) to approximate discrete probability distribution (Binomial distribution).

$P(X > 980) = 1 - P(Z < \frac{979.5 - 950}{6.892} )\\\\P(X > 980) = 1 - P(Z < \frac{29.5}{6.892} )\\\\P(X > 980) = 1 - P(Z < 4.28)\\\\$

The z-score corresponding to 4.28 is 0.99999

$P(X > 980) = 1 - 0.99999\\\\P(X > 980) = 0.00001\\\\$

So it means that it is very unlikely that there will be more than 980 non-defective units.

A circle has an area of 30 in^2. What is the area of a 60 sector of this circle?

yuradex [85]

We use the ratio x:360 to find portions of the circle (again, through the ratio)

so we use 60/360 = x/30 in^2

1/6 = x/ 30

x = 5.

The answer is 5 in^2

Write and solve equation. What is 16% of 80?

PolarNik [594]

Question: What is 16% of 80?

You have to change the percentage to a decimal.

Remove the percentage sign and divide by 100 (% are based off 100)

16%⇒.16

Now multiply .16 and 80

$.16 * 80=12.8$

Answer: 12.8

Answer:

y = -2x+4

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation of the line there is: y = -2x+8

The parallel line to this one should have the same slope as the first one(-2x)

Parallel lines always have the same slopes
