Question Help When purchasing bulk orders of​ batteries, a toy manufacturer uses this acceptance sampling​ plan: Randomly select

and test 36 batteries and determine whether each is within specifications. The entire shipment is accepted if at most 2 batteries do not meet specifications. A shipment contains 3000 ​batteries, and 3​% of them do not meet specifications. What is the probability that this whole shipment will be​ accepted? Will almost all such shipments be​ accepted, or will many be​ rejected?

Answer:

The probability is P(X  \le 2 ) = 0.9072

The company will accept 90.72% of the shipment and will reject (100 -90.72) =  9.2\% of the shipment , so many of the shipment are rejected

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The  sample size is  n =  36

   The  proportion that did not meet the requirement is  p =  0.03

Generally the probability that the whole shipment is accepted is equivalent to the probability that there is at most 2 batteries that do not meet the requirement , this is mathematically represented as

     P(X  \le 2 ) = [ P(X =  0 ) +  P(X =  1 ) + P(X = 0)]

=>   P(X  \le 2 ) = [ [^{n}C_0 * (p)^{0} *(1-p)^{n-0} ] +  [^{n}C_1 * (p)^{1} *(1-p)^{n-1} ] +  [^{n}C_2 * (p)^{2} *(1-p)^{n-2} ]]

Here C stands for Combination (so we will be making the combination function in our  calculators )

So

=> P(X  \le 2 ) = [ [^{36}C_0 * (0.03)^{0} *(1-0.03)^{36-0} ] +  [^{36}C_1 * (0.03)^{1} *(1-0.03)^{36-1} ] +  [^{36}C_2 * (0.03)^{2} *(1-0.03)^{36-2} ]]

=> P(X  \le 2 ) = [ [1 * 1 * 0.3340  ] +  [36* 0.03 *0.3444 ] +  [630 * 0.0009 *(0.355 ]]

=>P(X  \le 2 ) = 0.9072

The company will accept 90.72% of the shipment and will reject (100 -90.72) =  9.2\% of the shipment , so many of the shipment are rejected

What is the slope of this line​
Rashid [163]

Answer:

Slope = 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope = Change over y (rise) over change over x (run)

Pick two dot points on the line

Count how many units over they are until you get to the next dot, then count how many units up until you reach the next dot

Remember: Y runs vertically, X runs horizontally

Put the unit number that ran vertically on the top, then put the unit number that runs horizontally on the bottom

If needed simplify

The slope is 2/3

During summer, when the snow melts, the water level of the Yukon River increases. If the water level of the river increased by 7
kondaur [170]

Answer:

13 centimeters per day.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that during summer, the water level of the river increased by 78 centimeters in 6 days. We are asked to find the water level increase rate in centimeters per day.

To find the water level increase rate per day, we will divide total increase by total days as:

\text{Water level increase rate per day}=\frac{78\text{ cm}}{6\text{ days}}

\text{Water level increase rate per day}=\frac{13\text{ cm}}{\text{ day}}

Therefore, the water level increase rate is 13 centimeters per day.

Which equation are true for x=-2 and x=2 check all that apply
ki77a [65]
1 it is true
{x}^{2} - 4 = 0 \\ {x}^{2} = + 4 \\ x = \sqrt{4} = 2
2 it's not true
{x}^{2} = - 4
3 it's not true
3 {x}^{2} + 12 = 0 \\ 3 {x}^{2} = - 12 \\ {x}^{2} = \frac{ - 12}{3} = - 4 \\
4 it's true
4 {x}^{2} = 16 \\ {x}^{2} = \frac{16}{4} = 4 \\ x = \sqrt{4} = 2
5- it's true
{2(x - 2)}^{2} = 0 \\ {(x - 2)}^{2} = 0 \\ x - 2 = 0 \\ x = 2
