A purchaser of electric relays buys from two suppliers, A and B. Supplier A supplies two of every three relays used by the compa

ny. If 60 relays are selected at random from those in use by the company, find the probability that at most 38 of these relays come from supplier A. Assume that the company uses a large number of relays. (Use the normal approximation. Round your answer to four decimal places.)

Answer:

The probability that at most 38 of the 60 relays are from supplier A is P(X≤38)=0.3409.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can model this question with a binomial distribution random variable.

The sample size is n=60.

The probability that the relay come from supplier A is p=2/3 for any relay.

If we use a normal aproximation, we have the mean and standard deviation:

\mu=np=60*(2/3)=40\\\\\sigma=\sqrt{npq}=\sqrt{60*(2/3)*(1/3)} =3.65

The probability that at most 38 of the 60 relays are from supplier A is P(X≤38)=0.3409:

P(X\leq38)=P(X

What is x if the equation is, 4 - (2x-3) = 3?
user100 [1]

Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

4 - (2x-3) = 3

Distribute the minus sign

4 -2x+3 = 3

Combine like terms

7 -2x = 3

Subtract 7 from each side

7 -2x-7 = 3-7

-2x = -4

Divide by -2

-2x/-2 = -4/-2

x = 2

Identify the value of b. PLEASE HELP!!
Degger [83]

Answer:

  b = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

From an external point, the products of distances to the near circle intercept and the far circle intercept are the same. For a tangent, such as AC, point A is both the near and far intercept point, so that product is the square of the length of AC.

  (AC)² = (CG)(CV)

  b² = 12·27 = 324 . . . . substitute known values

  b = √324 . . . . . . . . . . take the square root

  b = 18

Prove algebraically that (m + 2)2 – m 2 – 12 is always a multiple of 4
Julli [10]

Answer:

(m + 2)^{2} - m^{2}  - 12 = 4(m - 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

Write the expression

(m+2)^{2} - m^{2}  - 12

Step 2: Expand (m + 2)^{2}

(m+2)^{2} - m^{2} - 12\\(m+2)(m+2) - m^{2}  - 12\\m^{2} + 2m + 2m + 4 - m^{2}  - 12

Step 3: Collect similar terms

m^{2}  - m^{2}  + 4m + 4 - 12\\4m - 8

Step 4: Factor 4 out of the expression to prove that the expression is a multiple of 4.

Therefore\\4m - 8 = 4(m - 2)\\Hence,\\(m+2)^{2}  - m^{2} -  12 is a multiply of 4 because the expression is equal to 4(m-2)

Amanda [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

→ Option A

x² - 11x + 28

= (x - 7)(x - 4) ❎

→ Option B

x² - 6x + 8

= (x - 4)(x - 2) ❎

→ Option C

x² + 7x + 12

= <u>(x + 4)</u>(x + 3) ✔️
