MA_775_DIABLO [31]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

x = -50/9    

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Pre-Algebra</u>

  • Order of Operations: BPEMDAS
  • Equality Properties

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define equation</u>

3x - 8 - 12x = 42

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

  1. Combine like terms:                    -9x - 8 = 42
  2. Isolate <em>x</em> term:                              -9x = 50
  3. Isolate <em>x</em>:                                        x = -50/9

Binomial distribution can be used because the situation satisfies all the following conditions:1. Number of trials is known and remains constant (n)2. Each trial is Bernoulli (i.e. exactly two possible outcomes) (success/failure)3. Probability is known and remains constant throughout the trials (p)4. All trials are random and independent of the othersThe number of successes, x, is then given byP(x)=C(n,x)p^x(1-p)^{n-x}whereC(n,x)=\frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}
Here we're given
p=0.10  [ success = defective ]
n=3

(a) x=0
P(x)=C(n,x)p^x(1-p)^{n-x}
=C(3,0)0.1^0(1-0.1)^{3-0}
=1(1)(0.729)
=0.729

(b) x=2
P(x)=C(n,x)p^x(1-p)^{n-x}
=C(3,2)0.1^2(1-0.1)^{3-2}
=3(0.01)(0.9)
=0.027

(c) x &ge; 2
P(x)=\sum_{x=2}^3C(n,x)p^x(1-p)^{n-x}
=P(2)+P(3)
=C(n,2)p^2(1-p)^{n-2}+C(n,3)p^3(1-p)^{n-3}
=C(3,2)0.1^2(1-0.1)^{3-2}+C(3,3)0.1^3(1-0.1)^{3-3}
=3(0.01)(0.9)+1(0.001)1
=0.027+0.001
=0.028
