First, we must find what percent of 7,000 is 160.

To do this, let's do 160/7,000

160/7000 simplified is 4/75.

So, 4 out of every 75 CDs will be defective. If we want to find the probability of them all being affective, we must first do 71/75, because we subtracted the amount of defective CDs from the numerator.

Next week must multiply 71/75*71/75*71/75*71/75*71/75 to get the probability of 5 randomly selected ones being affective.

I got 1804229351/2373046875

If you divide this, you get 0.76030076354, so there is about a 76 percent chance of having all 5 randomly pulled be affective.

.Hope this helped! Comment if you have any questions!!!

Let the random variable X be equally likely to assume any of the values 1/14, 1/7, or 3/14. Determine the mean and variance of X
Dimas [21]

Answer:

1/7 ;

0.0034

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

X = 1/14, 1/7, 3/14

n = number of observations = 3

Since, probability of X is equally likely ;

P(X) = Σp(x) = 1 ; p(x) = 1/n = 1/3

The mean, m ;

Σx*p(x) = (1/3 * 1/14) + (1/3 * 1/7) + (1/3 * 3/14)

= 1/42 + 1/21 + 3/42

= (1 + 2 + 3) / 42

= 6 / 42

= 1/7

The variance :

Σx²*p(x) - m²

((1/3) * (1/14)^2) + ((1/3) * (1/7)^2) + ((1/3) * (3/14)^2) - (1/7)^2

= 0.0238095 - 0.0204081

= 0.0034014

= 0.0034
