At Least One Defective iPhone It has been reported that 20% of iPhones manufactured by Foxconn for a product launch did not meet

Apple’s quality standards. An engineer needs at least one defective iPhone so she can try to identify the problem(s). If she randomly selects 15 iPhones from a very large batch, what is the probability that she will get at least 1 that is defec- tive? Is that probability high enough so that she can be reasonably sure of getting a defect for her work?

We can use the binomial theorem to find the probability that 0 out of the 15 samples will be defective, given that 20% are defective.
P(0/15) = (15C0) (0.2)^0 (1 - 0.2)^15 = (1)(1)(0.8)^15 = 0.0352
Then the probability that at least 1 is defective is equal to 1 - 0.0352 = 0.9648. This means there is a 96.48% chance that at least 1 of the 15 samples will be found defective. This is probably sufficient, though it depends on her significance level. If the usual 95% is used, then this is enough.

A football is punted from a height of 2.5 feet above the ground with an initial vertical velocity of 45 feet per second.
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

1.451 seconds.  Hurry.

Step-by-step explanation:

The position(height, h) of the foot ball will be given by the equation:

h = -32.2t^2 + 45t + 2.5

The term -32.2t^2 consists of the acceleration caused by gravity at Earth's surface ( -32 ft/sec^2) and the term +45t accounts for the initial velocity.  The + is assigned since the ball is moving vertically from ground.  The negative sign in -32t^2 is due to the acceleration being towards ground.  The term 2.5 accounts for the fact that the initial height of the ball is 2.5 feet above ground.

We can either calculate or graph with this function to find the time the ball spends in the air:

<u>Calculate: </u>

h = -32.2t^2 + 45t + 2.5

We need a value of t that would cause h to be 5.5 feet, the level it was caught:

5.5 = -32.2t^2 + 45t + 2.5

-32.2t^2 + 45t + 2.5 = 5.5

-32.2t^2 + 45t -3.0  = 0

Solve for t using the quadratic formula.  I get a value of 1.33 seconds.

<u>Graph:</u>

See the attached graph.  It confirms the 1.33 second value

Find the length of DE. Round to the nearest hundredth. (Picture included)
LenKa [72]
Notice the picture
we have, the opposite side
the angle
and we want the hypotenuse

so recall your SOH CAH TOA \bf sin(\theta)=\cfrac{opposite}{hypotenuse}&#10;\qquad \qquad &#10;% cosine&#10;cos(\theta)=\cfrac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}&#10;&#10;\\ \quad \\\\&#10;% tangent&#10;tan(\theta)=\cfrac{opposite}{adjacent}  =

which one has all that?  low and behold, is Ms Sine,
so let's bother Ms Sine

\bf sin(\theta)=\cfrac{opposite}{hypotenuse}\implies sin(27^o)=\cfrac{18}{hypotenuse}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;hypotenuse=\cfrac{18}{sin(27^o)}

make sure your calculator is in Degree mode, since the angle here is in degrees, as opposed to Radian mode

If BC = 6.5, CD = 7.8, and AD = 12.2, find AB to the nearest tenth.
Sladkaya [172]
This can be solved using the angle bisector theorem. Note that line segment AD is the angle bisector of triangle DAB from angle DAB. Therefore, we know that the ratios \frac{\text{AD}}{\text{CD}} and \frac{\text{AB}}{\text{CB}} are equal. Solving, we get \frac{\text{12.2}}{\text{7.8}}=\frac{\text{AB}}{\text{6.5}}. Cross multiplying, we get 79.3 = 7.8x, and solving this equation we get x = 10.1666... \approx 10.2. 10.2 is your answer.
