The fraction of a defective item getting by both inspectors is
= 
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1; Assume that the probability of the first inspector missing a defective part is P(A) and the probability of the second inspector missing those that do get past the first inspector is P(B).
Step 2; It is given that P(A) = 0.1, we convert this into a fraction so that the final probability will be a fraction and not a decimal.
P(A) = 0.1 =
.
It is given that the second inspector misses 5 out of 10 that get past the first inspector, so P(B) =
.
Step 3; To calculate the probability of both inspectors missing a defective part, we multiply both the probabilities.
P(A and B happening) = P(A) × P(B) =
×
=
=
= 0.05%. So there is a 0.05% chance of both inspectors missing a defective part.

Answer:
8 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of a triangle is ...
A = 1/2bh
Filling in the given values, we have ...
24 = 1/2b(6)
24/3 = b = 8 . . . . . divide by the coefficient of b
The base of each triangular quilt piece is 8 inches long.
Answer:
230 were sold at the door
170 were sold in advance
Step-by-step explanation:
x=at door y=in advance
x+y=400
3x+2y=1030
y=-x+400
2y=-3x+1030
y=-3/2x+515
-x+400=-3/2x+515
x=230 y=170
