How do you find a rate of change

1 answer:

5 0

Consider the line y = 2x + 1, shown at the right. Notice that this slope will be the same if the points (1,3) and (2, 5) are used for the calculations. For straight lines, the rate of change<span> (slope) is constant (always the same). For every one unit that is moved on the x-axis, two units are moved on the y-axis.hope this helped. </span>

Answer:

a) Binomial.

b) n=20, p=0.01, k≥2

The probability hat a package sold will be refunded is P=0.0169.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) We know that

the defective probability is constant and independent.
the sample size is bigger than one subject.

The most appropiate distribution to represent this random variable is the binomial.

b) The parameters are:

Sample size (amount of clips in the package): n=20
Probability of defective clips: p=0.01.
number of defective clips that trigger the money-back guarantee: k≥2

The probability of the package being refunded can be calculated as:

$P(x\geq2)=1-(P(x=0)+P(x=1))\\\\\\P(x=k) = \dbinom{n}{k} p^{k}q^{n-k}\\\\\\P(x=0) = \dbinom{20}{0} p^{0}q^{20}=1*1*0.8179=0.8179\\\\\\P(x=1) = \dbinom{20}{1} p^{1}q^{19}=20*0.01*0.8262=0.1652\\\\\\P(x\geq2)=1-(0.8179+0.1652)=1-0.9831=0.0169$
