Since multiplying by 0.5 is the same as dividing by 2, the problem is described by the sentence

"Half the sum of a number and 40 equals 200"

a random sample of 4 claims are selected from a lot of 12 that has 3 nonconforming units. using the hypergeometric distribution

Sloan [31]

Answer:

The probability that the sample will contain exactly 0 nonconforming units is P=0.25.

The probability that the sample will contain exactly 1 nonconforming units is P=0.51.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a sample of size n=4, taken out of a lot of N=12 units, where K=3 are non-conforming units.

We can write the probability mass function as:

$P(x=k)=\frac{\binom{K}{k}\binom{N-K}{n-k}}{\binom{N}{n}}$

where k is the number of non-conforming units on the sample of n=4.

We can calculate the probability of getting no non-conforming units (k=0) as:

$P(x=0)=\frac{\binom{3}{0}\binom{9}{4}}{\binom{12}{4}}=\frac{1*126}{495}=\frac{126}{495} = 0.25$

We can calculate the probability of getting one non-conforming units (k=1) as:

$P(x=1)=\frac{\binom{3}{1}\binom{9}{3}}{\binom{12}{4}}=\frac{3*84}{495}=\frac{252}{495} = 0.51$

1. Graph the linear equation y - 1 = 2 (x - 2)

astraxan [27]

y - 1 = 2 (x - 2) is the red graph.
4x + 6y = -12 is the blue graph.
f (x) = - $\frac{3}{2}$ x - 2 is the green graph.

-6 - 3(2x + 4) = 18what’s the answer

Brrunno [24]

Answer:

$x=-6$

Step-by-step explanation:

$-6-3\left(2x+4\right)=18$

Add 6 to both sides:

$-6-3\left(2x+4\right)+6=18+6$

$-3\left(2x+4\right)=24$

Divide both sides by -3:

$\frac{-3\left(2x+4\right)}{-3}=\frac{24}{-3}$

$2x+4=-8$

Subtract 4 from both sides:

$2x+4-4=-8-4$

$2x=-12$

Divide both sides by 2:

$\frac{2x}{2}=\frac{-12}{2}$

$x=-6$

In how many ways can 6 competitors finish a race assuming there are no ties?In how many ways can we sit n people on r < n cha

VLD [36.1K]

Answer: a) 720, b) $^nC_r=\dfrac{n!}{(n-r)!r!}$ c) 336, d) 30240 e) 120.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

a) Number of competitors = 6

We need to find the number of ways that 6 competitors can finish a race and there are no ties.

So, Number of ways would be

$6!=720$

b) number of people = n

Number of chairs = r (r<n)

so, the number of ways we can sit n people on r<n chairs is given by

$^nC_r=\dfrac{n!}{(n-r)!r!}$

c) If there are three awards :

Gold, silver, bronze.

We need to find the number of ways that these medals can be awarded.

Number of ways is given by

$^8P_3\\\\=336$

d) Number of 5-digit zip codes are possible is given by

$^{10}P_5=30240$

e) Number of poeple = 10

Number of people required in committee = 3

Number of different 3 person committee that are selected from 10 people is given by

$^{10}C_3=120$

Hence, a) 720, b) $^nC_r=\dfrac{n!}{(n-r)!r!}$ c) 336, d) 30240 e) 120.
