A firm gives discounts to its customers who pay their bills on time. A customer receives a ten percent discount on the next invo

ice when a bill is paid in full before its due date. Thirty percent of all customers use the discount. If the company sends out eight bills, what is the probability that less than three take the discount (round answers to three decimal places, for example, 0.xxx)

Answer:

0.551

Step-by-step explanation:

Let no. of people who take discount = x

Using binomial distribution, N c X. p^x. q^(n-x)

p : customer getting discount = 0.3, q : customer not getting discount = 0.7   n : no. of customers = 8

Probability that x < 3 : Prob (x=0) + Prob (x=1) + Prob (x=2)

= 8 c 0. (0.3)^0 . (0.7)^8 + 8 c 1. (0.3)^1 . (0.7)^7 + 8 c 2. (0.3)^2 . (0.7)^6

0.05764801 +  0.19765032 + 0.29647548

0.551

Determine as a linear relation in x, y, z the plane given by the vector function F(u, v) = a + u b + v c when a = 2 i − 2 j + k,
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

2x - y - 3z = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the set

{i, j}  = {(1,0), (0,1)}

is a base in \mathbb{R}^2

and F is linear, then

<em>{F(1,0), F(0,1)}  </em>

would be a base of the plane generated by F.

F(1,0) = a+b = (2i-2j+k)+(i+2j+k) = 3i+2k

F(0,1) = a+c = (2i-2j+k)+(2i+j+2k) = 4i-j+3k

Now, we just have to find the equation of the plane that contains the vectors 3i+2k and 4i-j+3k

We need a normal vector which is the cross product of 3i+2k and 4i-j+3k

(3i+2k)X(4i-j+3k) = 2i-j-3k

The equation of the plane whose normal vector is 2i-j-3k and contains the point (3,0,2) (the end of the vector F(1,0)) is given by

2(x-3) -1(y-0) -3(z-2) = 0

or what is the same

2x - y - 3z = 0
