What 2 numbers add to -3 and multiply to 2
serg [7]
We need to look at factors of 2, which are only 2 and 1... How do we get them to add to -3? Well, they have to be negative.

-2 + -1 = -3

What about the multiplication? A negative × a negative = a positive, so

-2 × -1 = 2

So your answer is

-2 and -1

A boiler has five identical relief valves. The probability that any particular valve will open on demand is 0.93. Assume indepen
noname [10]

Answer:

There is a 99.99998% probability that at least one valve opens.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each valve there are only two possible outcomes. Either it opens on demand, or it does not. This means that we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this problem.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

In which C_{n,x} is the number of different combinatios of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

And p is the probability of X happening.

In this problem we have that:

n = 5, p = 0.93

Calculate P(at least one valve opens).

This is P(X \geq 1)

Either no valves open, or at least one does. The sum of the probabilities of these events is decimal 1. So:

P(X = 0) + P(X \geq 1) = 1

P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0)

So

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 0) = C_{5,0}.(0.93)^{0}.(0.07)^{5} = 0.0000016807

Finally

P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0) = 1 - 0.0000016807 = 0.9999983193

There is a 99.99998% probability that at least one valve opens.

Vanessa bought a total of 5⁄3 pounds of green and red peppers. She bought 2⁄3 of a pound of green peppers. How many pounds of re
Temka [501]

Answer:

1  pound or 3/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract the green peppers from the total (5/3 - 2/3 = 3/3)

To convert to a whole number, divide 3 by 3, which equals 1, so 1 whole pound of red peppers.
