Missing question: How many executives should be surveyed?

Solution:
Mean = 13 hours
SD = 3 hours
Confidence level = 95%

Mean viewing time within a quarter of an hour = 0.25 = 1.96*3/sqrt (N)

Where N = Sample population

N = {(1.96*3)/0.25}^2 = 553.19 ≈ 554

Therefore, 554 executives should be surveyed to yield such results.

When purchasing bulk orders of​ batteries, a toy manufacturer uses this acceptance sampling​ plan: Randomly select and test 56 b
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

98.1% chance of being accepted

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

sample size,n=56

acceptance condition= at most 2 batteries do not meet specifications

shipment size=7000

battery percentage in shipment that do not meet specification= 1%

Applying binomial distribution

<h3>P(x)=∑ᵇₐ=₀ (n!/a!(n-a)!)p^a (1-p)^(n-a)</h3>

In this formula, a is the acceptable number of defectives;

 n is the sample size; 

p is the fraction of defectives in the population.  

Now putting the value

a= 2

n=56

p=0.01

\frac{56!}{0!\left(56-0\right)!}\left(0.01\right)^0\:\left(1-0.01\right)^{\left(56-0\right)} + \frac{56!}{1!\left(56-1\right)!}\left(0.01\right)^1\:\left(1-0.01\right)^{\left(56-1\right)} +\:\frac{56!}{2!\left(56-2\right)!}\left(0.01\right)^2\:\left(1-0.01\right)^{\left(56-2\right)}

=0.56960+0.32219+0.08949

After summation, we get 0.981 i.e. a 98.1% chance of being accepted.  As this is such a high chance, we can expect many of the shipments like this to be accepted!

4x^2 + 16x-2= 5x
Minus 16x over

4x2-2= -11x

Add 11x over

Use quadratic formula x= 2.9
I’m not sure here. I tried my best. Hope it helps!

Vinvika [58]

Answer:

x=64

y=54

Step-by-step explanation:

3x+4y=24 4(24-4y\3)+3y=22

x=24-4y/3 96-12y\3+3y=22

x=24-4(54)/3

x=-64 96/3-22=3y/3

y=54

Well when you do a problem and it's multiplication and you have to us your math skills and then when you get it wrong don't that
masha68 [24]
Not necessarily. You could have done your multiplication wrong. Or in some cases, yes, you could have to use another skill. For example, you can't solve an optimization problem with addition, you need some calculus skills under your belt.
