Answer:

There is a probability of 76% of not selling the package if there are actually three dead batteries in the package.

Step-by-step explanation:

With a 10-units package of batteries with 3 dead batteries, the sampling can be modeled as a binomial random variable with:

  • n=4 (the amount of batteries picked for the sample).
  • p=3/10=0.3 (the proportion of dead batteries).
  • k≥1 (the amount of dead batteries in the sample needed to not sell the package).

The probability of having k dead batteries in the sample is:

P(x=k) = \dbinom{n}{k} p^{k}q^{n-k}

Then, the probability of having one or more dead batteries in the sample (k≥1) is:

P(x\geq1)=1-P(x=0)\\\\\\P(x=0) = \dbinom{4}{0} p^{0}q^{4}=1*1*0.7^4=0.2401\\\\\\P(x\geq1)=1-0.2401=0.7599\approx0.76

In another survey, Jane found that 25% of the total number of teenagers surveyed like sandwiches. If 50 teenagers like sandwiche
34kurt
Set up a proportion: 25/100 = 50/n where n = # of teens surveyed
Simplify fraction: 1/4 = 50/n
Cross multiply: n = 200
So 200 teens were surveyed.

Find the x-intercept and y-intercept for 8x+4y=16
Valentin [98]

Answer:

y-intercept = 4

x-intercept = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

you can divide the equation through by 4 and change into the y=mx+c form to find c, the y intercept so the y-intercept = 4.

for the x intercept make the y=0 (because the coordinate point where the line crosses the x axis must have y=0) and then you get 8x=16 so x=2
