Let x denote the number of defective light bulbs in a randomly selected 20-count box from a local hardware store. The variable x

has the following probability distribution:
x 0 1 2
P(X) 0.28 0.37 0.22 0.08 0.05
Calculate and interpret ox
A. 0.22; if we were to select many boxes of bulbs randomly, we would expect about 0.22, on average, to contain defective bulbs
B• 1.25, if we were to select many boxes of bulbs randomly, we would expect about 1.25, on average, to contain defective bulbs
C.0.28; if we were to select many boxes of bulbs randomly, we would expect about 0.28 to have no defects
D.1.099, if we were to select many boxes of bulbs randomly, the number of defective bulbs would typically vary about 1.099 from the mean
1.208; if we were to select many boxes Bulbs randomly, the number of defective bulbs would typically vary about 1.208 from the mean

Frist you do 6*13

Which equals 78

Then you do 8,500/78

Which equals <span>108.974358974</span>

1. Write an equation in slope-intercept form of the line that passes through the given point and is parallel to the graph of the
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

#1) y = -4x + 1; #2) parallel; #3) y = -1/2x + 5/2; #4) y = 2x + 4; #5) Never

Step-by-step explanation:

#1) We want a line that passes through (1, -3) and is parallel to y = 2-4(x-1).  First we simplify our equation using the distributive property:

y = 2-4(x-1) = 2-4(x) -4(-1) = 2-4x--4 = 2-4x + 4 = -4x + 6

Lines that are parallel have the same slope; this means we want a line through (1, -3) with a slope of -4.  Using point-slope form,

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\\\\y--3=-4(x-1)\\\\y+3=-4(x)-4(-1)\\\\y+3=-4x+4\\\\y+3-3=-4x+4-3\\\\y=-4x+1

#2) We must first write our second equation in slope-intercept form by isolating the y term:

2x+y=7

Subtract 2x from each side"

2x+y-2x = 7-2x

y = -2x+7

This means the slope is -2; the slopes are the same, so the lines are parallel.

#3) The slope of our given equation is 2.  To be perpendicular, the second line must have a slope that is a negative reciprocal (flipped and opposite signs); this makes it -1/2.  Using point-slope form,

y-0=\frac{-1}{2}(x-5)\\\\y=\frac{-1}{2}(x)+\frac{-1}{2}(-5)\\\\y=\frac{-1}{2}x+\frac{5}{2}

#4) The slope of Main Street on the diagram, found by using rise/run, is 2.  This means the bike path will also have a slope of 2 in order to be parallel.  The park entrance is at (0, 4).  This makes the equation y = 2x+4.

#5) Two lines with the same slope are always parallel.  They are never perpendicular.

The weights of cars passing over a bridge have a mean of 3,550 pounds and standard deviation of 870 pounds. Assume that the weig
Annette [7]

Answer:

0.24315

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the z score formula to solve this question

z = (x - μ) / σ,

Such that:

x = raw score

μ = population mean

σ = population standard deviation.

From the question:

x = 3000

μ = 3550

σ = 870

z = (3000 - 3550) / 870

z = -550/870

z = -0.6962

Using the z score table as well as probability calculator(as requested in the question to find the z score)

The probability of having less than 3000 is obtained as:

P(x<3000) = 0.24315
