I'll give you a hint. You had to used pemdas stands for: p-parenthesis, e-exponents, m-multiply, d-divide, a-add, and s-subtracting.

First you had to calculate with parenthesis first.

$24/3+2$

Then you divide from left to right.

$8+2$

$=10$

Final answer: $\boxed{=10}$

Hope this helps!

And thank you for posting your question at here on brainly, and have a great day.

PEMDAS so (9+15)= 24 , 24/3 = 8 , 8+2 = 10

A manufacturer of Christmas light bulbs knows that 10% of these bulbs are defective. It is known that light bulbs are defective

Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

(a) P(X $\leq$ 20) = 0.9319

(b) Expected number of defective light bulbs = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a manufacturer of Christmas light bulbs knows that 10% of these bulbs are defective. It is known that light bulbs are defective independently. A box of 150 bulbs is selected at random.

Firstly, the above situation can be represented through binomial distribution, i.e.;

$P(X=r) = \binom{n}{r} p^{r} (1-p)^{2} ;x=0,1,2,3,....$

where, n = number of samples taken = 150

r = number of success

p = probability of success which in our question is % of bulbs that

are defective, i.e. 10%

Now, we can't calculate the required probability using binomial distribution because here n is very large(n > 30), so we will convert this distribution into normal distribution using continuity correction.

So, Let X = No. of defective bulbs in a box

Mean of X, $\mu$ = $n \times p$ = $150 \times 0.10$ = 15

Standard deviation of X, $\sigma$ = $\sqrt{np(1-p)}$ = $\sqrt{150 \times 0.10 \times (1-0.10)}$ = 3.7

So, X ~ N( $\mu = 15, \sigma^{2} = 3.7^{2})$

Now, the z score probability distribution is given by;

Z = $\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}$ ~ N(0,1)

(a) Probability that this box will contain at most 20 defective light bulbs is given by = P(X $\leq$ 20) = P(X < 20.5) ---- using continuity correction

P(X < 20.5) = P( $\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}$ < $\frac{20.5-15}{3.7}$ ) = P(Z < 1.49) = 0.9319
