A manufacturer producing a new product, estimates the annual sales to be 9,600 units. Each year, 8% of the units that have been

sold will become inoperative. So, 9,600 units will be in use after 1 year, [9,600 0.92(9,600)] units will be in use after 2 years, and so on. How many units will be in use after n years

Answer:

After n years, 120,000(1 - 0.92ⁿ) units, will be in use.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

estimated annual sales, a = 9600 units

determine common ratio, r;

r = 1 - \frac{8}{100}\\\\r = 0.92

sum of the units in use after n years is calculated by applying sum of nth term;

S_n = \frac{a}{1-r} (1-r^n)

S_n = \frac{9600}{1-0.92} (1-0.92^n)\\\\S_n = \frac{9600}{0.08} (1-0.92^n)\\\\S_n = 120,000(1-0.92^n) \ units

Therefore, after n years, 120,000(1 - 0.92ⁿ) units, will be in use.

The probability that it will weigh less than 23.1 ounces is = 0.8643

P(x < 23.1)

= P[(x - \mu) / \sigma < (23.1 - 22) / 1]

= P(z < 1.1)

Using the z table,

= 0.8643

Probability is the branch of arithmetic concerning numerical descriptions of ways in all likelihood an occasion is to occur, or how likely it is that a proposition is authentic. The chance of an occasion is a variety of between zero and 1, where, roughly talking, 0 indicates the impossibility of the event, and 1 indicates truth.

The possibility of an event may be calculated through probability formulation by using simply dividing the favorable wide variety of consequences by the overall range of viable consequences.

Opportunity = the number of ways of achieving achievement. the whole quantity of feasible results. for instance, the possibility of flipping a coin and it being heads is ½, because there's 1 way of having a head and the total wide variety of viable results is 2 (a head or tail). We write P(heads) = ½.

5) through: (-3, 3), slope = 0​
Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that -3 is on the x axis and 3 is on the y axis.

and the y axis usually determines if you are going to have a positive slope or negative since it would either rise or decrease. In this cause (-3, 3) shows that 3 is going to be our slope.
