(Elimination using multiplication) 2x+y=0 5x+3y=2 Show all work step by step

1 answer:

3 0

1. Set Up:
-3(2x + y = 0)
-6x -3y =-3
5x+3y = 2 <2nd equation
-1x=-1 <divide by -1
> x = 1
2. Plug In:
2(1) + y = 0
2 + y = 0
-2 -2
> y = -2
3. Check Answer:
2(1) + (-2) =0
> 2 - 2 =0

In a process that manufactures bearings, 90% of the bearings meet a thickness specification. A shipment contains 500 bearings. A

Marina86 [1]

Answer:

(a) 0.94

(b) 0.20

Step-by-step explanation:

From a population (Bernoulli population), 90% of the bearings meet a thickness specification, let $p_1$ be the probability that a bearing meets the specification.

So, $p_1=0.9$

Sample size, $n_1=500$ , is large.

Let X represent the number of acceptable bearing.

Convert this to a normal distribution,

Mean: $\mu_1=n_1p_1=500\times0.9=450$

Variance: $\sigma_1^2=n_1p_1(1-p_1)=500\times0.9\times0.1=45$

$\Rightarrow \sigma_1 =\sqrt{45}=6.71$

(a) A shipment is acceptable if at least 440 of the 500 bearings meet the specification.

So, $X\geq 440.$

Here, 440 is included, so, by using the continuity correction, take x=439.5 to compute z score for the normal distribution.

$z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}=\frac{339.5-450}{6.71}=-1.56$ .

So, the probability that a given shipment is acceptable is

$P(z\geq-1.56)=\int_{-1.56}^{\infty}\frac{1}{\sqrt{2\pi}}e^{\frac{-z^2}{2}}=0.94062$

Hence, the probability that a given shipment is acceptable is 0.94.

(b) We have the probability of acceptability of one shipment 0.94, which is same for each shipment, so here the number of shipments is a Binomial population.

Denote the probability od acceptance of a shipment by $p_2$ .
